CAUTION
!
The combustion air for your furnace must be fresh un-
contaminated air. Paints, varnishes, laundry bleaches,
detergents, many household cleaners, water softening
salts, adhesives, and all such products release fumes
containing compounds which could lead to early heat
exchanger and vent system deterioration. Do NOT
store these types of products near your furnace.
▲
CAUTION
!
For horizontally vented furnaces, the vent and inlet
terminals must be located at least 12 inches minimum
(18 inches in Canada) above normally expected snow
accumulation level.

IMPORTANT FACTS
The flow of combustion and ventilating air must not
be obstructed from reaching the furnace. Air openings
provided in the casing of the furnace must be kept free
of obstructions which would restrict airflow, thereby af-
fecting efficiency and safe operation of your furnace.
Also, air openings provided to the area in which the fur-
nace is installed and the space around the furnace shall
not be blocked or obstructed. Keep this in mind should
you choose to remodel the area which contains your fur-
nace. If additional insulation is added after the furnace
is installed, the area around the furnace must be in-
spected to ensure it is free and clear of insulation. If this
furnace is installed in an attic or other insulated space
it must be kept free and clear of all insulating materials
as some insulating materials are combustible.
Furnaces must have air for proper performance. There
must be a free flow of fresh air sufficient for efficient
combustion and safe ventilation of your furnace.
Never store gasoline, combustible materials, or
other flammable liquids or vapors near your fur-
nace.
Carbon monoxide, fire or smoke can cause serious bodi-
ly injury, death, and/or property damage.
A variety of potential sources of carbon monoxide can
be found in a building or dwelling such as gas-fired
clothes dryers, gas cooking stoves, water heaters, fur-
naces and fireplaces. The U.S. Consumer Product Safe-
ty Commission recommends that users of gas-burning
appliances install carbon monoxide detectors as well as
fire and smoke detectors, listed by a nationally recog-
nized agency (e.g. Underwriters Laboratories or Inter-
national Approval Services), to help alert dwelling oc-
cupants of the presence of fire, smoke or unsafe levels
of carbon monoxide.
NOTE: The manufacturer of your furnace does not test
any detectors and makes no representations regarding
any brand or type of detector.
Installing and servicing heating equipment can be
hazardous due to gas and electrical components. Only
trained and qualified personnel should install, repair
or service heating equipment.
Untrained personnel can perform basic maintenance
functions such as cleaning and replacing filters. All
other operations must be performed by trained service
personnel.
Parts and controls of this furnace are unique. Should
service or modification be required, be sure your ser-
vicer uses only factory authorized parts, kits, or acces-
sories for this furnace.
If you experience a problem with the operation of your
furnace, check the “Problem Solver” section of this
manual before you call for a possibly unneeded service
call.
