NOTE: If washable filter that was shipped with the furnace has been replaced with an electronic air cleaner (EAC), refer to the EAC Owner’s Man- ual for maintenance information.

6.Wash filter (if dirty) in a sink, bathtub, or outside with a garden hose. Always use cold tap water. A mild liquid detergent may be used if necessary. Spray water through filter in the opposite direction of airflow. Allow filter to dry.

7.Reinstall clean air filter.

8.Reinstall filter retainer.

9.Replace blower access panel and main furnace door. Be sure to replace 2 screws in blower access panel. (See Fig. 27 and 28.) Turn on electrical supply to the furnace.

If your furnace air filter needs to be replaced, be sure to use the same size and type of filter that was originally supplied. Use the furnace filter table and compare your furnace size with the proper filter size.

COMBUSTION AREA AND VENT SYSTEM

Visually inspect the combustion area and vent system before each heating season. Make sure that all PVC pipes leading into the combustion area and vent are free from any cracks and sags. Check the combustion-air intake adja- cent to the furnace for blockage. Also check the vent pipe on the outside of your home for blockage.

When dirt, soot, scale, or rust is allowed to build up, your furnace can suffer a loss of efficiency and perform improperly. Accumulations on the main burners can result in firing out of normal sequence. This delayed igni- tion creates an alarmingly loud sound.

!CAUTION

If your furnace makes an espe- cially loud noise when the main burners light, shut down your furnace and call your dealer.

To inspect the combustion area and vent system, you will need a flashlight. Refer to Fig. 2, and proceed as follows:
