• Inspect the return-air duct connection(s) at the furnace to 
ensure it is physically sound, sealed to the furnace casing, 
and terminates outside the space containing the furnace.
• Inspect electrical wiring, connections, and components for 
loose connections.
• Perform an operational checkout to determine whether 
your furnace is  working properly and if it requires 
adjustments.
• Inspect all condensate drain tubes and condensate trap 
assembly for leaks. The condensate removal system should 
be cleaned annually by a qualified service agency. Refer 
to the Service and Maintenance Instructions for further 
information.
• Examine the physical support of the furnace. Support 
should be sound with no cracks, sagging, gaps, etc. around 
the base.
• Check furnace for any obvious signs of deterioration.

 

BEFORE YOU REQUEST A SERVICE CALL

 

If your furnace is not operating or not performing properly, 
you may save the expense of a service call by checking a few 
things yourself before calling for service.

FOR INSUFFICIENT AIRFLOW:

• Check for dirty air filter(s).
• Check for blocked return-air or supply-air grilles through-
out your home. Ensure they are open and unobstructed.
If problem still exists, call your dealer for service.

IF FURNACE FAILS TO OPERATE:

Follow this checklist step by step, advancing to the next step 
only if furnace fails to start.

• Check thermostat for proper temperature. Is thermostat 
set above room temperature?

• Is thermostat switch on HEAT?

• Check fuses and circuit breakers. Is electrical supply on?

• Is manual shut-off valve in gas supply pipe in open posi-
tion? (Follow start-up procedures if you open gas valve.)

 

NOTE:

 

 Turn off electrical supply before continuing with 

checklist.

• Is control knob on gas valve in ON position? (Follow start-
up procedures if you must reset knob to ON.)

• Check manual reset flame rollout switch located on the 
burner box. (See Fig. 2 or 3.) If furnace has experienced high 
temperature conditions, this switch will shut off the furnace. 
Reset it by pushing the button on the switch. If it trips again, 
shut down the furnace and call for service. See section “Shut-
ting Down Your Furnace” in this manual.

• Check for obstructions around the vent termination.

If the furnace still fails to operate, call your service 
representative.

For your convenience, record the furnace product and serial 
numbers on page 2. Should you ever require service, you 
will have ready access to the information needed by your 
service representative.

This furnace has an LED operation and fault code display 
to aid the installer, service technician, or homeowner 
while installing or servicing the unit. The LED code can 
be seen by removing the access door and viewing  the
LED(s) through the view port in the blower access panel. 

 

NOTE:

 

 Removing the blower access panel or turning off the 

115-v electrical power supply will terminate LED diagnostic 
code display.

To decipher the meaning of the LED code, and suggested 
action, the following cross-reference can be used.

NOTES:

 

1. Light on continuously means control has power and working properly.

2. The status codes are a 2 digit number. The first digit is determined by the number of short flashes of the light and the second digit is determined by number of 

long flashes of the light.
