WARNING

CORROSION HAzARD!
To prevent shortening its service
life, the air handler should not be used during the finishing phases
of construction. The low return air temperatures can lead to the
formation of condensate. Condensate in the presence of chlorides
and fluorides from paint, varnish, stains, adhesives, cleaning com-
pounds, and cement creates a corrosive condition which may cause
rapid deterioration of the cabinet and internal components.
Important:
Due to the unique design of this unit, which
allows the electrical wiring to be routed within the insula-
tion, do not screw, cut, or otherwise puncture the unit
cabinet in any location other than the ones illustrated in
this Installer Guide or in an approved accessory’s In-
staller Guide.
Important:
Under no conditions should metal strapping
be attached to the unit to be used as support mecha-
nisms for carrying or suspension purposes.
SAFETY HAzARD!
Sharp Edge Hazard. Be careful of sharp
edges on equipment or any cuts made on sheet metal while install-
ing or servicing. Personal injury may result.
