symbol. Danger identi®es the most serious hazards which will result in severe personal injury or death. Warning indicates a condition that could result in personal injury. Caution is used to identify unsafe practices which would result in minor personal injury or product and property damage.

WARNING: Disconnect gas piping from unit when leak testing at pressure greater than 0.5 psig. Pressures greater than 0.5 psig will cause gas valve damage re- sulting in hazardous condition. If gas valve is subject to pressure greater than 0.5 psig, it must be replaced before use. When pressure testing ®eld-supplied gas pip- ing at pressures of 0.5 psig or less, a unit connected to such piping must be isolated by manually closing the gas valve.

WARNING: Before performing service or mainte- nance operations on unit, turn off main power switch to unit. Electrical shock could cause personal injury.

1.The power supply (volts, hertz, and phase) must corre- spond to that speci®ed on unit rating plate.

2.The electrical supply provided by the utility must be suf- ®cient to handle load imposed by this unit.

3.Refer to the Locate the Unit section on page 3 and Fig. 2 for locations of gas and electrical inlets, conden- sate drain, duct connections, and required clearances be- fore setting unit in place.

4.Locate the unit where the vent cap will be a minimum of 4 ft from openable windows or doors.

5.This installation must conform with local building codes, the NFGC (National Fuel Gas Code), ANSI (American National Standards Institute) Z223.1-1992, and NFPA (National Fire Protection Association) 54 TIA-54-92-1. In Canada, installation must conform with CAN/CGA (Canadian Gas Association) B149.1,[2]-M86. Refer to Pro- vincial and local plumbing or wastewater codes and other applicable local codes.
