the floor. If you smell gas, STOP! Follow “B” in the safety information above on this furnace label. If you don’t smell gas, go to the next step.

•If a suspected malfunction occurs with your gas control system, such as the burners not lighting when they should, refer to the shutdown proce- dures on inside of main furnace door, or in the “Shutting Down Your Fur- nace” section and call your dealer as soon as possible.

!WARNING

If overheating occurs or the gas valve fails to shut off the gas supply, turn off the exter- nal manual gas valve to the furnace BEFORE turning off the electrical supply. (See Fig. 9.) Failure to follow this warn- ing could result in a fire or ex- plosion, and personal injury/ death or property damage.

CHECK AIR FILTER: Before attempting to start your furnace, be sure the furnace air filter is clean and in place. See “Performing Routine Main- tenance” section in this manual.

Then proceed as follows:

9.Open the external manual gas valve. (See Fig. 18.)

10.Set room thermostat to a tempera- ture slightly above room tempera- ture. This will automatically signal the furnace to start.

11.When the furnace receives the start signal, the inducer is started. When the pressure switch senses that there is sufficient combustion air, the hot surface igniter is ener- gized. After the hot surface igniter is heated for 17 seconds, the gas valve permits gas to flow to the main burners. After ignition and a time delay of about 60 sec, the fur- nace blower will start. Variable- capacity furnaces start at low

speed until the control makes the
