Professional installation required. Verify local codes and obtain permits.
WARNING! Gas appliances can be dangerous; installation must be performed by qualified technician. Ensure proper ventilation and combustion air supply.
After installation, perform initial startup procedure.
CAUTION! Do not operate without proper venting. Check for gas leaks before startup.
Primary control through thermostat. Internal controls managed by electronic board.
Thermostat Settings: HEAT, OFF, FAN AUTO/ON. Internal controls: Gas valve, igniter, blower motor, safety switches.
Operation Sequence: Thermostat calls for heat → inducer motor starts → pressure switch proves draft → igniter heats → gas valve opens → flame sensor confirms ignition → blower starts after heat exchanger warms.
Fan Control: Auto mode operates with heat cycle; Continuous mode runs continuously for air circulation.
Regular maintenance ensures efficiency and longevity.
Tip: Keep area around furnace clean and unobstructed.
Multiple safety systems protect against hazardous conditions.
WARNING! Never bypass safety devices. Contact qualified technician if safety devices activate.
LED flash codes indicate system status and errors.
| Flash Pattern | Description | Action |
|---|---|---|
| 1 flash | Normal operation | No action needed |
| 2 flashes | Pressure switch error | Check venting |
| 3 flashes | Ignition failure | Check gas supply |
| 4 flashes | Limit switch open | Check airflow |
| 5 flashes | Flame sensor error | Clean sensor |
| Continuous on | Power on | Normal status |
Turn off power and gas before cleaning. Use soft brush and vacuum for dust removal.
CAUTION! Do not use water or chemical cleaners. Keep electrical components dry.
