PERFORMING
ROUTINE
MAINTENANCE
With proper maintenance and care, your furnace will operate economi- cally and dependably. Instructions for basic maintenance follow. How- ever, before beginning maintenance, follow these safety precautions:
!WARNING
Turn off all electrical power to furnace before performing any maintenance or service on unit. Failure to take this precaution may result in per- sonal injury due to electrical shock.

!CAUTION
Although special care has been taken to minimize sharp edges, be extremely careful when handling parts or reaching into the furnace.
FILTERING OUT
TROUBLE
Dirty air filters will cause a loss of airflow in your duct system. When excessive loss of airflow occurs, the furnace may cycle on its safety controls. If this condition is left unattended, the furnace will even- tually lock out. It is recommended that the furnace air filters be checked every 3 or 4 weeks and cleaned or replaced as necessary.
6
!CAUTION
Never operate your furnace without the air filters in place. Doing so may damage the furnace blower motor. An accumulation of dust and lint on internal parts of your furnace can cause a loss of efficiency.
The air filters are located in the blower compartment installed in an internal filter rack which is pro- vided as standard equipment with furnace. (See Fig. 2.) To inspect, clean, and or replace air filters, fol- low these steps:
1.Turn off electrical supply to fur- nace. (See Fig. 11.)
2.Remove blower access door in rear of furnace. (See Fig. 13.) Pull out then up using 2 strap handles on blower access door.
