Startup Adjustments And Measurements; Furnace Operation - Amana 10759833 Installation Instructions Manual

Startup Adjustments and Measurements

Furnace must have a 115 VAC power supply properly connected and grounded. Proper polarity must be maintained for
correct operation. An interlock switch prevents furnace operation if the blower door is not in place. Keep the blower access
door in place except for inspection and maintenance.
This furnace is also equipped with a self-diagnosing electronic control module. In the event a furnace component is not
operating properly, the control module LED will flash on and off in a factory-programmed sequence, depending on the
problem encountered. This light can be viewed through the observation window in the blower access door. Refer to the
Troubleshooting Chart for further explanation of the lighting codes.
On new installations, or if a functional part such as the gas valve, pressure switch, or limit control has been replaced, verify
that the furnace is operating properly after servicing.
Check furnace operation as outlined in the following instructions. If any sparking, odors, or unusual noises are
encountered, shut off electrical power and recheck for wiring errors, or obstructions in or near the blower motors. Various
shipping materials must be removed before the blower motor is operated. In addition to the following startup adjustments
and measurements items, refer to further information in Operational Checks.
Purge gas lines of air prior to startup. Be sure not purge lines into an enclosed burner compartment.
Check for leaks using an approved chloride-free soap and water solution, an electronic combustible gas detector, or other
approved method. Verify that all required kits (propane gas, high altitude, etc.) have been appropriately installed.
NOTE: An interlock switch prevents furnace operation if the blower door is not in place. Keep the blower access
doors in place except for inspection and maintenance.
