!CAUTION

UNIT OPERATION HAZARD

Failure to follow this caution may result in improper operation.

Errors made when reconnecting wires may cause improper and dangerous operation. Label all wires prior to disconnecting when servicing.

The minimum maintenance requirements for this equipment are as follows:

1.Inspect air filter(s) each month. Clean or replace when necessary.

2.Inspect indoor coil, drain pan, and condensate drain each cooling season for cleanliness. Clean when necessary.

3.Inspect blower motor and wheel for cleanliness each cooling season. Clean when necessary.

4.Check electrical connections for tightness and controls for proper operation each cooling season. Service when necessary.

Step 1 — Air Filter

IMPORTANT: Never operate the unit without a suitable air filter in the return-air duct system. Always replace the filter with the same dimensional size and type as originally installed. See Table 1 for recommended filter sizes.

Inspect air filter(s) at least once each month and replace (throwaway-type) or clean (cleanable-type) at least twice during

each cooling season and twice during the heating season, or whenever the filter becomes clogged with dust and lint.

Indoor Blower and Motor

NOTE: All motors are pre-lubricated. Do not attempt to lubricate these motors.

NOTE: 460 volt units have a stepdown autotransformer that supplies approximately 230 volts to a nominal 230 volt indoor blower motor.

For longer life, operating economy, and continuing efficiency, clean accumulated dirt and grease from the blower wheel and motor annually.

!WARNING

ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD

Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury or death.

Disconnect and install lockout tag on electrical power to the unit before cleaning the blower motor and wheel.

To clean the blower motor and wheel:
