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.

Follow the start-up and adjustment items, refer to further information
in 

Section XIII, Operational Checks

OPERATION

Purge gas lines of air prior to start-up.  Do 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.

UP

1. Close the manual gas shutoff valve external to the furnace.
2. Turn off the electrical power to the furnace.
3. Set the room thermostat to the lowest possible setting.
4. Remove the burner compartment door.

NOTE:

  This furnace is equipped with an ignition device which

automatically lights the burner.  Do not try to light the burner by
hand.

5. Move the furnace gas valve manual control to the OFF

position.

6. Wait five minutes then smell for gas. Be sure check near

the floor as some types of gas are heavier than air.

7. If you smell gas after five minutes, immediately follow the

instructions on page 5 of this manual.  If you do not smell
gas after five minutes,  move the furnace gas valve manual
control to the ON position.

8. Replace the burner compartment door.
9. Open the manual gas shutoff valve external to the furnace.
10. Turn on the electrical power to the furnace.
11. Adjust the thermostat to a setting above room temperature.
12. After the burners are lit, set the thermostat to desired

temperature.

NOTE:

 There is an approximate 30 second delay between

thermostat energizing and burner firing.

HUTDOWN

1. Set the thermostat to lowest setting.
2. Turn off the electrical power supply to the furnace.
3. Remove the burner compartment door and move the furnace

gas valve manual control to the OFF position.

4. Close manual gas shutoff valve external to the furnace.
5. Replace the burner compartment door.

• R and W1 (or R and W1/W2) thermostat contacts open,

completing the call for heat.

• Gas valve closes, extinguishing flame.
• Induced draft blower is de-energized following a fifteen

second post purge. Humidifier terminals are de-energized.

• Circulator blower continues running for the selected heat

off delay period (90, 120, 150 or 180 seconds).  The speed
run during this period depends on the last heat call provided
by the thermostat.
If the last call for heat was a call for high heat, the air
circulating motor will run on the high heating speed for thirty
seconds and then switch to the low heating speed for the

balance 

of the heat off delay period

• Electronic air cleaner terminals is de-energized
• Circulator blower ramps down to OFF during the 30 seconds

following the heat off delay period.

• Furnace awaits next call from thermostat.

• Integrated control module performs safety circuit checks.
• Outdoor fan and compressor are energized to their

appropriate speed.

• Circulator blower is energized on the appropriate cool speed

following a fixed five second on delay.  The circulator blower
requires 30 seconds to ramp up to full speed.  Electronic air
cleaner terminals are energized with circulator blower.

• Furnace circulator blower and outdoor cooling unit run their

appropriate speed, integrated control module monitors safety

the call for cool.

• Outdoor fan and compressor are de-energized.
• Circulator blower continues running for a cool off delay

period.  The OFF delay time and airflow level are determined
by the selected ramping profile.

XII. START-UP PROCEDURE AND ADJUSTMENT

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.
