as taut as possible.
• Seal any leaks in the
ducting.
• Redirect the supply air
so that it is not blowing
into the return-air
stream.

7 Operation Checks

Many air conditioning problems are caused by the
improper operation of the product. When diagnosing an
air conditioning problem, always check the functionality
of the appliance before replacing components. This
section contains information on how to properly operate
the air conditioner and the Q3 control.

WARNING: FIRE AND/OR EXPLOSION
HAZARD .
R-410A refrigerant systems operate at higher
pressures than standard R-22 systems. Do not use
R-22 to service the equipment or components on
R-410A refrigerant equipment. Failure to obey this
warning could result in death or serious injury.

WARNING: BREATHING HAZARD . Failure to
obey these warnings could result in death or
serious injury .
• Refrigerants are heavier than air. They can "push out"
the oxygen in your lungs in an enclosed space. To
avoid possible death or difficulty breathing:
– Never sniff a refrigerant.
– Never purge refrigerant into an enclosed room or
space. All refrigerants must, by law, be reclaimed.
– If an indoor leak is suspected, thoroughly ventilate
the area before beginning work.
• Never burn refrigerant as poisonous gas will be
produced.
• Always follow EPA guidelines.

WARNING: BURN HAZARD .
Liquid refrigerant can be very cold. To avoid
possible frostbite or blindness, avoid contact
and wear gloves and goggles. If liquid refrigerant
does contact your skin or eyes, get medical help
immediately. Failure to obey this warning could
result in death or serious injury.
Operation Checks
Remedy
Clean, replace, or
open the damper or
supply vents. Refer to
the Installation and
Operation Manual for
the specific procedures.
