If you have difficulty locating your air filter or if you have questions concerning proper filter maintenance, contact your dealer for additional instructions. When replacing your unit’s filters, always use the same size and type of filter that was originally supplied by the installer.
Units with outdoor air capability have a cleanable filter for the outdoor air. This filter should be checked annually and cleaned as necessary with steam or hot water and a mild detergent. Do not use throwaway filters in place of cleanable filters.
WARNING: Never operate your unit without fil- ters in place. Failure to heed this warning may result in damage to the blower motor and/or compressor. An accumulation of dust and lint on internal parts of your unit can cause loss of efficiency and, in some cases, fire that could result in serious injury or death.

II. HEAT EXCHANGER
To ensure dependable and efficient heating operation, the heat exchanger should be checked by a qualified maintenance
person before each heating season and cleaned when neces- sary. This checkout should not be attempted by anyone who does not have the required licensing, expertise and/or equip- ment to do the job properly. Checking and/or cleaning the heat exchanger involves removing the gas controls assembly and the flue collector box cover. When finished, the gas controls assembly must be reinstalled for proper operation. Also, the flue collector box cover must be replaced correctly so that a proper seal is maintained. Contact your dealer for the required periodic maintenance.
III. FANS, BELTS, AND FAN MOTOR
At the beginning of each heating and cooling season, check the condition of fan wheels and housings, belt tension, and fan motor shaft bearings. No lubrication of condenser or evapora- tor fan bearings or motors is required or recommended.
IV. EVAPORATOR AND CONDENSER COILS
Inspect and clean the condenser and evaporator coils at the beginning of each cooling season, or more frequently as con- ditions require.
Cleaning of the coils should only be done by qualified service personnel. Contact your dealer for the required annual maintenance.

VIII. ELECTRICAL CONTROLS AND WIRING
Electrical controls are difficult to check without proper instrumentation. If there are any discrepancies in the oper- ating cycle, contact your dealer and request service.
IX. REFRIGERANT CIRCUIT
The refrigerant circuit is difficult to check for leaks without the proper equipment. If inadequate cooling is suspected, contact your dealer for service.
X. COMBUSTION AREA AND VENT SYSTEM
The combustion area and vent system should be visually inspected before each heating season. The normal accumula- tion of dirt, soot, rust, and scale can result in loss of effi- ciency and improper performance if allowed to build up.
CAUTION: If your unit makes unusual or espe- cially loud noises during heating, shut down the heat- ing section and call your qualified Bryant dealer.
