•Check the rating plate and power supply to be sure that the elec- trical characteristics match. All models use nominal 115 VAC, 1 Phase,
•Furnace shall be installed so the electrical components are pro- tected from water.
•Installing and servicing heating equipment can be hazardous due to the electrical components and the gas fired components. Only trained and qualified personnel should install, repair, or service gas heating equipment. Untrained service personnel can perform basic maintenance functions such as cleaning and replacing the air filters. When working on heating equipment, observe precau- tions in the manuals and on the labels attached to the unit and other safety precautions that may apply.
