EATING

TARTUP

This unit is equipped with an electronic ignition device to
automatically light the main burners. It also has a power vent
blower to exhaust combustion products.
On new installations, or if a major component has been
replaced, the operation of the unit must be checked.
Check unit operation as outlined in the following instructions.
If any sparking, odors, or unusual sounds are encountered,
shut off electrical power and recheck for wiring errors, or
obstructions in or near the blower motors. Duct covers must
be removed before operating unit.

Heat Anticipator Setting

Set the heat anticipator on the room thermostat to 0.4 amps to
obtain the proper number of heating cycles per hour and to
prevent the room temperature from overshooting the room
thermostat setting.

Rollout Protection Control

The rollout protection device opens, cutting power to the gas
valve, if the flames from the burners are not properly drawn
into the heat exchanger. The rollout protection device is located
on the burner bracket. The reason for elevated temperatures
at the control should be determined and repaired prior to
resetting this manual reset control.

WARNING

T

O AVOID PROPERTY DAMAGE, PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH DUE TO FIRE

OR EXPLOSION, A QUALIFIED SERVICER MUST INVESTIGATE THE REASON FOR

THE ROLLOUT PROTECTION DEVICE TO OPEN BEFORE MANUALLY RESETTING

THE ROLLOUT PROTECTION DEVICE.

Secondary Limit Control

The secondary limit control is located on the top of the blower
scroll assembly. This control opens when elevated
temperatures are sensed. Elevated temperatures at the
control are normally caused by blower failure. The reason for
the opening should be determined and repaired prior to
resetting.
If the power to the unit is interrupted during the heating cycle,
it may cause the secondary limit to trip. Once the blower
compartment temperature drops below the limit reset
temperature, the limit will automatically reset.

Pre-Operation Checks

1. Close the manual gas valve external to the unit.
2. Turn off the electrical power supply to the unit.
3. Set the room thermostat to its lowest possible setting.
4. Remove the heat exchanger door on the side of the unit by

removing screws.

5. This unit is equipped with an ignition device which

automatically lights the main burner. DO NOT try to light
burner by any other method.

6. Move the gas control valve switch to the OFF position. Do

not force.

7. Wait five minutes to clear out any gas.
8. Smell for gas, including near the ground. This is important

because some types of gas are heavier than air. If you
have waited five minutes and you do smell gas,
immediately follow the warnings on page 3 of this manual.
