Your furnace is a gas appliance. It is critical that the gas
supplied to the unit be completely burned to avoid the proĆ
duction of carbon monoxide gas. Complete combustion of
the gas requires, but is not limited to, correct gas pressure
and gas flow rate, adequate combustion air and proper
venting.
WARNING
Do not use this furnace if any part has been under
water. Immediately call a qualified service technician
to inspect the furnace and to replace any part of the
control system and any gas control which has been
under water.
WARNING
Carbon monoxide gas is invisible, odorless, and
toxic.
IMPORTANT
Any additions, changes, or conversions required in
order for the appliance to satisfactorily meet the apĆ
plication needs must be made by a Lennox service
technician using factory specified and approved
parts.
Exposure to carbon monoxide gas can cause personal injuĆ
ry and even death to all occupants, including pets. Any item
that is powered by, or gives off heat from, a combustion proĆ
cess (including lawn mowers, automobiles, and fireplaces)
has the potential to produce carbon monoxide gas. Because
of this, Lennox recommends the use of a carbon monoxĆ
ide detector in your home, even if you do not own gas
appliances. Reliable detectors are available at reasonable
retail prices. Contact your Lennox dealer for more details
about this investment in your safety.
WARNING
Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service
or maintenance can cause property damage, personĆ
al injury or loss of life. Installation and service must
be performed by a qualified installer, service agency
or the gas supplier.
Important Directions
1 - Keep the furnace area clear and free of combustible
material, gasoline, and other flammable vapors and
liquids. If it is installed in an insulated area, the furnace
must be kept free of insulating material. Insulating maĆ
terial may be combustible.
Your furnace is designed to meet standards set by nationĆ
al agencies. It should operate safely when properly
installed and maintained. However, the unit's perforĆ
mance can be greatly impacted by the individual installaĆ
tion and the operating environment. It is your responsibilĆ
ity to ensure that this appliance is maintained. Proper
maintenance is critical for your safety and the satisfactory
operation of the product. Lennox strongly recommends
annual inspection and maintenance of this appliance.
Contact your Lennox dealer for an inspection by a qualiĆ
fied service technician.
2 - DO NOT obstruct air flow to unit. Unit must receive an
unobstructed flow of combustion and ventilating air.
3 - DO NOT store chlorine or fluorine products near unit
or introduce these products into the combustion air.
These products can cause furnace corrosion.
4 - DO NOT draw return air from a room where this furĆ
nace, or any other gas appliance (ie., a water heatĆ
er), is installed. When return air is drawn from a room,
a negative pressure is created in the room. If a gas apĆ
pliance is operating in a room with negative pressure,
the flue products can be pulled back down the vent
pipe and into the room. This reverse flow of the flue
gas may result in incomplete combustion and the
formation of carbon monoxide gas. This toxic gas
might then be distributed throughout the house by the
furnace duct system.
Lighting Information & Operation
WARNING
If you do not follow these instructions exactly, a fire
or explosion may result causing property damage,
personal injury or death.
WARNING
The blower door must be securely in place when the
blower and burners are operating. Gas fumes, which
could contain carbon monoxide, can be drawn into
the living space resulting in personal injury or death.
BEFORE LIGHTING smell all around the appliance area
for gas. Be sure to smell next to the floor because some gas
is heavier than air and will settle on the floor.

Call your Lennox service technician if the unit will not operĆ
ate. Before calling, always check the following to be sure
service is required.
A qualified service technician should inspect the complete
system each season (heating and cooling). The following
maintenance procedures should only be conducted by a
qualified service technician. Do not attempt to service
the unit in any way.
1 - Check that electrical disconnect switches are ON.

Safety Precautions
Annually (before heating season) inspect furnace venting
system, vent cap, heat exchanger and burners for corroĆ
sion, deterioration, or deposits of debris. Remove any obĆ
structions.
If you discover any of the following, shut down your
unit and contact a Lennox dealer for an inspection by a
qualified technician.
D If you repeatedly hear any new or unfamiliar sounds
while your unit is operating, there may be a problem. For
example, poorly performing burners can produce unfaĆ
miliar noises.
Inspect thefurnace venting system to make sure it is in
place, physically sound and without holes, corrosion, or
blockage. The vent connector must be correctly posiĆ
tioned and sloped upward. The vent connector must be
physically sound, without holes or excessive corrosion.
D If you smell any unusual odors, your unit may be operatĆ
ing improperly. For example, units can give off unfamilĆ
iar odors if components are required to operate in abĆ
normal conditions.
Inspect the furnace return air duct connection. The duct
must be sealed to the furnace and it must terminate outside
the space containing the furnace.
D Look for visible signs of a malfunctioning unit. Examples
include unusual amounts of condensate on windows inĆ
side your house, visibly burnt components or unusual
dirt or rust accumulations on the vent pipe or in the unit.
Inspect the physical support of the furnace to guarantee
that it is sound. The support must not sag and must not
have cracks or gaps around the base of the furnace. There
must be a seal between the furnace base and the support.
D If you experience headache, nausea, fatigue, or dizziĆ
ness, the cause could be exposure to carbon monoxide
gas. This is often misdiagnosed as the flu because
symptoms are similar. If you suffer from flu-like sympĆ
toms that are exaggerated at home, but seem to subĆ
side while you are away from the house, exposure to
carbon monoxide could be the cause.
During a seasonal check, the service technician will inĆ
spect the indoor blower and the burner flames along with
the venting system.
Blower
Your vigilance may pay off in early detection of a problem
before either personal injury or property damage occurs.
Do not hesitate to contact a qualified service technician as
an investment in your well being.
Check blower wheel for any debris and clean it, if necesĆ
sary. The blower motor is pre-lubricated for extended bearĆ
ing life. No further lubrication is needed.

ing items during an annual inspection. Power to the unit
must be shut off for the service technician's safety.
Operating performance - Unit must be observed during
operation to monitor proper performance of the unit and the
vent system.
Fresh air grilles and louvers (on the unit and in the room
where the furnace is installed) - Must be open and unobĆ
structed to provide combustion air.
Combustion gases - Flue products must be analyzed and
compared to the unit specifications.
Problems detected during the inspection may make it necĆ
essary to temporarily shut down the furnace until the items
can be repaired or replaced.
Burners - Must be inspected for rust, dirt, or signs of water.

or sagging pipe, or disconnected joints.
Pay attention to your furnace. Situations can arise beĆ
tween annual furnace inspections that may result in unsafe
operation. For instance, items innocently stored next to the
furnace may obstruct the combustion air supply. This could
cause incomplete combustion and the production of carĆ
bon monoxide gas.
Unit appearance - Must be inspected for rust, dirt, signs
of water, burnt or damaged wires, or components.
Blower access door - Must be properly in place and proĆ
vide a seal between the return air and the room where the
furnace is installed.
