Component Operation and Maintenance, Checks and Adjustments
Controls
The humidifier RUN/DRAIN switch is located in the unit low voltage compartment for most Deluxe models (in the humidifier assembly for models FH599, 600, 739, 740C). This switch should be in the RUN position when the humidifier is in normal operation; it should be in the DRAIN position when a manual drain for service is required. The electronic control board for the humidifier is located in the same area as the humidifier RUN/DRAIN switch. When the main unit is energized, power is available to the humidifier circuits.
