This appliance must be properly connected to a venting system.

This appliance is equipped with a vent safety shutoff system.

Warning: Operation of this wall furnace when not

connected to a properly installed and maintained venting

system or tampering with the vent safety shutoff system

can result in carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning and possible

death.

This furnace is equipped with a manual reset vent safety switch.

The manual reset vent safety switch will cause gas flow to the main

burner to "shut off" due to improper venting or a blocked flue.
To reset the manual reset vent safety switch:

1. Remove outer casing.

2. Depress manual reset button. The manual reset vent safety

switch is located on the draft diverter.

3. Replace outer casing.
If the manual reset vent safety switch continues to "shut off" the gas

flow to the main burner a qualified service person must be contacted

to inspect for improper venting, blockage in the vent pipe or the

manual reset vent safety switch for being defective.

The correct flame will be a short blue inner flame with a much

larger light blue outer flame. The burner does not have a primary

air adjustment. The flame will be proper if the factory-set pressure

and orifice are used. After the furnace has begun operating, cleaning

of the burner may be needed for proper flame, examine at least 2

times per season.
To clean burner ports, disconnect the gas supply to the valve. Remove

the burner assembly from the combustion chamber. Remove pilot

burner from main burner and then remove the main burner. Force

water into the ports and blow dry with vacuum cleaner air, or low

pressure compressed air.

The correct flame will be blue, extending past the thermopile. The

flame will surround the thermopile just below its tip.
Natural gas pilots require adjusting when the inlet gas pressure is

above 5" w.c. (1.245kPa). Remove the pilot cover screw on the

control valve and turn the adjustment screw clockwise to reduce

flame. Replace pilot cover screw to eliminate gas leaking at that

control valve opening.
LP gas (propane) will not require adjustment.
After use, cleaning may be required for the proper flame.
Examine the pilot flame before and during each heating season.
