IMPORTANT FACTS
Your furnace must have adequate
airflow for efficient combustion
and safe ventilation. Do not
enclose it in an airtight room or
"seal" it behind solid doors.
To minimize the possibility of
serious personal injury, fire, fur-
nace damage, or improper opera-
tion, carefully
follow
safety rules:
FOR YOUR SAFETY
Do not store or use gaso-
line or other flammable
vapors and liquids in the
vicinity of this or any
other appliance.
• Do not cover the furnace, store
trash or debris near it, or in any way
block the flow of fresh air to the
unit.
• Combustion air must be clean and
not contaminated with chlorine or
fluorine. These compounds are
present in many products around
the home, such as: water softener
salts, laundry bleaches, detergents,
adhesives, paints, varnishes, paint
strippers, waxes, and plastics.
Make sure the combustion air for
your furnace does not contain any
of these compounds. During re-
modeling be sure the combustion
air is fresh and uncontaminated. If
air with vapors of these com-
pounds is burned in your furnace,
the heat exchangers and metal vent
system may deteriorate.
NOTE: Do not use this furnace if
any part has been under water.
Immediately call a qualified ser-
vice technician to inspect the fur-
nace and to replace any part of the
control system, electrical compo-
nents, and any oil control which
has been under water.
NOTE: The qualified installer or
agency must use only factory-
authorized replacement parts, kits,
and accessories when servicing
these
this product.
The furnace burner control has a
safety device which must be man-
ually reset. If the furnace is left
unattended for an extended period
of time, have it checked periodi-
cally for proper operation. This
precaution will prevent problems
associated with no heat, such as
frozen water pipes, etc.
