CHECK AIR FILTER: Before  
attempting to start your furnace, be  
sure the furnace air lter is clean  
and in place. See Performing Rou-  
tine Maintenancesection in this  
manual. Then proceed as follows:  
When room temperature drops  
below temperature selected on  
the thermostat, the furnace will  
be switched on automatically.  
When room temperature reaches  
the degree selected on the ther-  
mostat, the furnace will be  
switched off automatically.  
STEPS FOR STARTING  
YOUR FURNACE  
Some thermostats have a FAN  
mode with 2 selections, AUTO  
and ON. When thermostat is set  
to AUTO, the furnace blower  
cycles on and off, controlled by  
the thermostat. In ON mode,  
the furnace blower runs contin-  
uously. This keeps the tempera-  
ture level in your home more  
evenly balanced. It also contin-  
uously lters indoor air.

1. Open all warm air registers and  
make sure that all return-air  
grills are unobstructed.  
7. Check all connections to ensure  
there are no leaks.  
2. If a humidier is installed with  
your system, open water supply  
valve.  
8. Set room thermostat to a tem-  
perature slightly above room  
temperature. This will auto-  
matically signal the furnace to  
start.  
3. Make sure blower access door is  
secured in place.  
9. When the thermostat calls for  
heat, power from the trans-  
former energizes the fan control  
board. The fan control energizes  
the ignition control. The igni-  
tion control will automatically  
light the burner.  
4. Set your room thermostat to  
lowest temperature setting.  
(See Fig. 5.)  
NOTE: Constant low-speed blower  
operation can also be achieved by  
turning on the constant blower  
rocker switch located on side of  
control box. Regardless of room  
thermostat setting, blower will run

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.

5. If furnace blower will be neces-  
sary for cooling system, remem-  
ber to turn electric power back  
on when needed for air condi-  
tioning.  
Dirty air lters will cause a loss of  
airow in your duct system. When  
excessive loss of airow 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 furnace air lters be checked  
every 3 or 4 weeks and cleaned or  
replaced as necessary.  
6. If furnace is being shut down be-  
cause of a malfunction, call your  
dealer as soon as possible.  
6. Re-install clean air lter.  
ALWAYS KEEP MAIN OIL

furnace.  
!
CAUTION  
A CHECK-UP  
CHECKLIST  
Never operate your furnace  
without the air filters in place.  
Doing so may damage the  
furnace blower motor. An ac-  
cumulation of dust and lint  
on internal parts of your fur-  
nace can cause a loss of effi-  
ciency.  
PERFORMING  
ROUTINE

Your furnace represents an impor-  
tant investment in your familys  
comfort and your homes value. To  
keep it performing properly and as  
a preventative to future problems,  
have a trained service specialist  
give your furnace a professional

clean if necessary.  
Change oil lter.  
Change nozzle.  
Check and adjust combustion and  
draft.  
Inspect all vent piping inside struc-  
ture for deterioration and vent termi-  
nations outside the structure for  
blockage.  
Check oil pipes leading to and  
inside of your furnace for leaks.  
Inspect and clean the blower motor  
and wheel.  
Inspect and change or clean air l-  
ter if necessary.  
Inspect all supply- and return-air  
ducts for obstructions, air leaks, and  
insulation. Remedy any problem  
when necessary.  
Inspect the return-air duct connec-  
tions at the furnace to ensure it is  
physically sound, sealed to the fur-  
nace casing, and terminates outside  
the space containing the furnace.  
Follow this checklist step by step,  
advancing to the next step only if  
furnace fails to start.  
Check thermostat for proper tem-  
perature. Is thermostat set above  
room temperature?  
Is thermostat set on HEAT?  
Check fuses and circuit breakers.  
Is electrical supply on?
