All units are securely packed in shipping containers tested ac-
cording to International Safe Transit Association specifications.
The carton must be checked upon arrival for external damage. If
damage is found, a request for inspection by carrier’s agent
must be made in writing immediately.
The furnace must be carefully inspected on arrival for damage
and bolts or screws which may have come loose in transit. In
the event of damage the consignee should:
1. Make a notation on delivery receipt of any visible damage
to shipment or container.
2. Notify carrier promptly and request an inspection.
3. With concealed damage, carrier must be notified as soon
as possible - preferably within five days.
4. File the claim with the following support documents within
a nine month statute of limitations.
• Original or certified copy of the Bill of Lading, or
indemnity bond.
• Original paid freight bill or indemnity in lieu thereof.
• Original or certified copy of the invoice, showing trade
and other discounts or reductions.
• Copy of the inspection report issued by carrier’s
representative at the time damage is reported to carrier.
The carrier is responsible for making prompt inspection of dam-
age and for a thorough investigation of each claim. The distribu-
tor or manufacturer will not accept claims from dealers for trans-
portation damage.

RECAUTIONS
NOTE: Discharge body’s static electricity before touching unit.
An electrostatic discharge can adversely affect electrical com-
ponents.
Use the following precautions during furnace installation and
servicing to protect the integrated control module from damage.
By putting the furnace, the control, and the person at the same
electrostatic potential, these steps will help avoid exposing the
integrated control module to electrostatic discharge. This pro-
cedure is applicable to both installed and non-installed (un-
grounded) furnaces.
1. Disconnect all power to the furnace. Do not touch the
integrated control module or any wire connected to the
control prior to discharging your body’s electrostatic
charge to ground.
2. Firmly touch a clean, unpainted, metal surface of the
furnaces near the control. Any tools held in a person’s
hand during grounding will be discharged.
3. Service integrated control module or connecting wiring
following the discharge process in step 2. Use caution
not to recharge your body with static electricity; (i.e., do
not move or shuffle your feet, do not touch ungrounded
objects, etc.). If you come in contact with an ungrounded
object, repeat step 2 before touching control or wires.
4. Discharge your body to ground before removing a new
control from its container. Follow steps 1 through 3 if
installing the control on a furnace. Return any old or new
controls to their containers before touching any ungrounded
object.
