CHECK AIR FILTER: Before
attempting to start your furnace, be
sure the furnace air filter is clean
and in place. See “Performing Rou-
tine Maintenance” section in this
manual. Then proceed as follows:
When room temperature drops
below temperature selected on
the thermostat, the furnace will
be switched on automatically.
When room temperature reaches
the degree selected on the ther-
mostat, the furnace will be
switched off automatically.
STEPS FOR STARTING
YOUR FURNACE
Some thermostats have a FAN
mode with 2 selections, AUTO
and ON. When thermostat is set
to AUTO, the furnace blower
cycles on and off, controlled by
the thermostat. In ON mode, the
furnace blower runs continu-
ously. This keeps the tempera-
ture level in your home more
evenly balanced. It also contin-
uously filters indoor air.

1. Open all warm air registers and
make sure that all return-air
grills are unobstructed.
7. Check all connections to ensure
there are no leaks.
2. If a humidifier is installed with
your system, open water supply
valve.
8. Set room thermostat to a tem-
perature slightly above room
temperature. This will auto-
matically signal the furnace to
start.
3. Make sure blower access door is
secured in place.

turned off, room thermostat will
control blower operation.
The electronic fan control auto-
matically turns on the blower
after 60 sec. Fan on control is
not adjustable. The air moved
over the heat exchanger by the
blower is warmed and passes
through the ducts to the room
registers.
SHUTTING DOWN
YOUR FURNACE
Should you need to shut down your
furnace for service or maintenance,
you will need to turn the furnace
off. The following procedures must
be followed:
5
5. Turn on electric power to
furnace. (See Fig. 6.)
This unit is equipped with con-
tinuous ignition control. If the
main burner does not ignite
within 30 sec from the call for
heat, the control will lock out.
The red button on top of the
control must be depressed for 3
sec in order to reset the control.
The control CANNOT be reset
from the room thermostat.
1. Set thermostat to lowest setting.
(See Fig. 8.)

10. Set your thermostat to the tem-
perature that satisfies your com-
for requirements. SUGGES-
TION: Setting the thermostat
back a few degrees and compen-
sating for the difference with
warmer clothing can make a big
difference in your fuel consump-

the most costly degrees to obtain.

To inspect, clean, and/or replace air
filter, follow these steps:
2. Turn off all electrical power to
the furnace. (See Fig. 9.)
!
WARNING
Turn off all electrical power to
furnace before performing
any maintenance or service
on unit. Failure to take this
precaution may result in per-
sonal injury due to electrical
shock.
1. Turn off electrical supply to fur-
nace. (See Fig. 11.)
2. Remove filter from external fil-
ter rack.
3. Inspect filter. If torn, replace it.
NOTE: If filter has been replaced
with an electronic air cleaner
(EAC), refer to the EAC Owner’s
Manual for maintenance informa-
tion.
9
3. Close oil supply valve.
(See Fig. 10).
5. If filter is dirty, it must be re-
placed. If your furnace air filter
needs to be replaced, be sure to
use the same size and type of fil-
ter that was originally supplied.
Use furnace filter table for filter
size and filter rack flange dimen-
sions for return air duct.

If you have replaced a disposable
filter with a permanent washable
filter, it may be cleaned if it is dirty.
Wash filter in a sink, bathtub, or
outside with a garden hose. Always
use cold tap water. A mild liquid
detergent may be used if necessary.
Spray water through filter in the
opposite direction of airflow.
Allow filter to dry.
FILTERING OUT
TROUBLE
4. If applicable, turn off water sup-
ply to humidifier.
Dirty air filters will cause a loss of
airflow in your duct system. When
excessive loss of airflow occurs,
the furnace may cycle on its safety
controls. If this condition is left
unattended, the furnace will even-
tually lock out. It is recommended
that furnace air filters be checked
every 3 or 4 weeks and cleaned or
replaced as necessary.
5. If furnace blower will be neces-
sary for cooling system, remem-
ber to turn electric power back
on when needed for air condi-
tioning.
6. If furnace is being shut down be-
cause of a malfunction, call your
dealer as soon as possible.
6. Re-install clean air filter.
7. Turn on electrical supply to
furnace.
ALWAYS KEEP MAIN OIL
VALVE TURNED OFF IF

AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF
TIME.

CAUTION
A CHECK-UP
CHECKLIST
Never operate your furnace
without the air filters in place.
Doing so may damage the
furnace blower motor. An ac-
cumulation of dust and lint
on internal parts of your fur-
nace can cause a loss of effi-
ciency.
Your furnace represents an impor-
tant investment in your family’s
comfort and your home’s value. To
keep it performing properly and as
a preventative to future problems,
have a trained service specialist
give your furnace a professional
check-up annually. The following
checklist can be used as a guideline
to proper service:

MAINTENANCE
With proper maintenance and care,
your furnace will operate economi-
cally and dependably. Instructions
for basic maintenance follow. How-
ever, before beginning maintenance,
follow these safety precautions:

room temperature?
• Is thermostat set on HEAT?
• Check fuses and circuit breakers.

etc. around the base.
• Check furnace for any obvious
signs of deterioration.
BEFOREYOU REQUEST
A SERVICE CALL
• Check oil pipes leading to and
inside of your furnace for leaks.
• Is valve in oil supply pipe in open
position?
If your furnace is not operating or
not performing properly, you may
save the expense of a service call
by checking a few things yourself
before calling for service.
• Inspect and clean the blower motor
and wheel.
• Inspect and change or clean air fil-
ter if necessary.
• Inspect all supply- and return-air
ducts for obstructions, air leaks, and
insulation. Remedy any problem
when necessary.
• Inspect the return-air duct connec-
tions at the furnace to ensure it is
physically sound, sealed to the fur-
nace casing, and terminates outside
the space containing the furnace.
• Is the ignition control on the burn-
er not in lockout? The red button on
top of the control must be depressed
for 3 sec in order to reset the control.
• Check for obstructions around the
vent termination.
If furnace still fails to operate, call
your service representative. For your
convenience, record furnace product
and serial numbers on page 2.

will have ready access to the infor-
FOR INSUFFICIENT AIRFLOW:
• Check for dirty air filters.
• Check for blocked return-air or
supply-air grilles throughout your
home. Ensure they are open and
unobstructed.
If problem still exists, call your mation needed by your service rep-
dealer for service.
• Inspect electrical wiring, connec-
resentative.
