WARNING:
Risk of Explosion or Fire.
Verify that there are no gas leaks by testing with 
appropriate equipment. Never use a match or lighter 
to test for the presence of gas. Failure to test 
properly can lead to an explosion or fire and may 
result in severe personal injury or death. 
Make sure all components function properly by 
performing the following checks. 
1.
Before starting the appliance, perform a safety 
inspection of piping, burners and venting. Check 
for gas leaks, etc. Check all wiring for proper 
connections. Be sure the system is properly 
grounded, including ground connection to the 
burner ground (Terminal 1). 
2.
With the gas and thermostat off, turn on power to 
the appliance. 
3.
Turn the thermostat to a high setting and verify 
that the control goes through the operating 
sequence to a shutoff condition. 
Note:
The burner does not light because the
gas is off.
4.
Turn off the thermostat.
5.
Turn on the gas and purge gas lines of all air.
6.
Check for gas leaks on all pipe joints upstream of 
the gas valve with a soap solution. 
7.
Turn the thermostat to the highest setting and 
verify successful ignition and a normal run 
condition for at least 5 minutes. If the appliance 
fails to run, see the Troubleshooting section. 
8.
Check for gas leaks on all pipe joints 
downstream of the gas valve with a soap 
solution. 
9.
Turn the thermostat down for at least 30 seconds 
and then back up again. Verify successful 
ignition at least five times. 
10. Return the thermostat to a normal temperature
setting before leaving the installation.

WARNING:
The control module can not be serviced by user. If 
any faults are detected, the control module must be 
replaced. If control module has been opened or any 
attempts to repair are done, the warranty is void. 
Operation
Operating Mode Definitions 
The following definitions describe the operating 
conditions. 
• Pre-Purge: Initial time delay between the
thermostat contact closure (Call for Heat) and the 
HSI (Hot Surface Igniter) and pilot valve are 
activated. The controls “LED” will flash green 
“ON” and “OFF” at 0.5 s rate. 
• Igniter Warmup (Timed Ignition): The time
allowed for the hot surface igniter to heat up 
before the Trial-For-Ignition sequence is 
activated. The controls “LED” will flash green 
“ON” and “OFF” at 0.5 s rate. 
• Trial-For-Ignition (TFI): This is the total time the
pilot valve and hot surface igniter are “ON” 
(energized), and flame sense sequence is 
activated in an attempt to light the pilot. The 
control attempts to prove flame within the Trial-
For-Ignition time. The “LED” will flash green at 
0.5 second “ON” and 0.5 second “OFF”. 
• Flame Sensed: With a flame present, a current
path is connected between the “Igniter” and “Main 
Burner” ground on “Internal Flame Sense” 
Models, or between a “Flame Sense Rod” and 
“Main Burner” ground on “Remote Flame Sense” 
Models. The “Main Burner” and gas valve remain 
on as long as a flame is present. When the 
thermostat opens (Call for Heat ends) the control 
turns “OFF” (de-energizes) the gas valve, there by 
extinguishing the flame. 
• 100% Shutoff (Flame Not Sensed) With 1
Ignition Trial (Bad Flame/No Flame):
If the
control does not prove the presence of pilot 
burner flame within the “Trial-For-Ignition” time, 
then both gas valve relays are turned “OFF” 
(de-energized) and the control goes into Lockout 
mode. See Troubleshooting Guide for possible 
faults.
