Safety Precautions

If you discover any of the following, shut down your unit, and contact a Lennox dealer for an inspection by a qualified technician.

D If you repeatedly hear any new or unfamiliar sounds while your unit is operating, there may be a problem. For example, poorly performing burners can produce unfa, miliar noises.

DIf you smell any unusual odors, your unit may be operat, ing improperly. For example, units can give off unfamil, iar odors if components are required to operate in ab, normal conditions.

DLook for visible signs of a malfunctioning unit. Examples include unusual amounts of condensate on windows in, side your house, visibly burnt components or unusual dirt or rust accumulations on the vent pipe or in the unit.

DIf you experience headache, nausea, fatigue, or dizzi, ness, the cause could be exposure to carbon monoxide gas. This is often misdiagnosed as the flu because symptoms are similar. If you suffer from flu-like symp, toms that are exaggerated at home, but seem to sub, side while you are away from the house, exposure to carbon monoxide could be the cause.

Your vigilance may pay off in early detection of a problem before either personal injury or property damage occurs. Do not hesitate to contact a qualified service technician as an investment in your well being.
