Preparing Furnace For Operation

The heat sensing switch performs as the furnace high temperature limit switch. If the furnace overheats for any reason, the limit switch opens, breaking the circuit to the burner. The blower motor will be energized and as the unit cools the limit switch will close. This relights the burner, however, unless the overheating condition is corrected, the furnace will continue to cycle on limit.

This unit is equipped with an interrupted ignition elec- tronic 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 CAN- NOT be reset from the room thermostat.

1.This appliance is equipped with an ignition device which automatically lights the burner. Do NOT try to light the burner by hand.

2.After preparing the furnace for heating operation (See previous section.) and checking for proper oil supply, proceed as follows.

3.For a heating/cooling system, set the thermostat to HEAT and the fan to AUTO. Set the thermostat to the desired room temperature and turn on the electrical power to the furnace.

4.The burner should light and the system should be controlled by the thermostat.
