GENERAL INFORMATION

WARNING: Improper installation, adjustment, al- teration, service or maintenance can cause injury or property damage. Refer to the installation in- structions provided with the furnace and this manual. For assistance or additional information consult a qualified installer, service agency or the gas supplier.

This information is intended for use by individuals pos- sessing adequate backgrounds of electrical and mechani- cal experience. Any attempt to repair a central air condi- tioning product may result in personal injury and/or prop- erty damage. American Standard Inc. or seller cannot be responsible for the interpretation of this information, nor can it assume any liability in connection with its use.

Understand the signal words DANGER, WARNING, AND CAUTION. These words are safety alert words. DANGER indicates the most serious hazards which will result in severe personal injury or death. WARNING indicates hazards which could result in personal injury or death.

CAUTION is used to indicate unsafe practices which could result in minor injury or property damage.

There must be a free flow of fresh air sufficient for efficient combustion and safe ventilation of your furnace. Do not allow the louvers on the front panels of your furnace to become blocked as this will restrict the flow of fresh air.

The combustion air for your furnace must be fresh uncon- taminated air. Paints, varnishes, laundry bleaches, deter- gents, many household cleaners, water softening salts, adhesives, and all such products release fumes containing compounds which could lead to early heat exchanger and vent system deterioration. Do not store these type of products near your furnace and consider fresh air for your furnace during construction or remodeling.

Never store gasoline, combustible materials, or other flammable liquids or vapors near your furnace.

If you have a problem, check the "Problem Solver" section of this manual before you call for a possibly unneeded service call.

Parts and controls of this furnace are unique. Should service or modification be required, be sure your servicer uses only factory authorized parts, kits, or accessories for this furnace.

CAUTION: Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing controls. Wiring errors can cause improper and dangerous op- eration.

WARNING: BODILY INJURY CAN RESULT FROM HIGH VOLTAGE ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS, FAST MOVING FANS, AND COMBUSTIBLE GAS. FOR PROTECTION FROM THESE INHERENT HAZARDS DURING INSTALLATION AND SERVICING, THE ELECTRICAL SUPPLY MUST BE DISCONNECTED AND THE MAIN GAS VALVE MUST BE TURNED OFF. IF OPERATING CHECKS MUST BE PERFORMED WITH THE UNIT OPERATING, IT IS THE TECHNICIANS RESPONSIBILTY TO RECOGNIZE THESE HAZARDS AND PROCEED SAFELY.

WARNING: DO NOT USE THIS UNIT IF ANY PART HAS BEEN UNDER WATER. IMMEDIATELY CALL A QUALIFIED SERVICE TECHNICIAN TO INSPECT THE FURNACE AND TO REPLACE ANY PART OF THE CONTROL SYSTEM AND ANY GAS CONTROL WHICH HAS BEEN UNDER WATER.
