WARNING
This product contains or produces a chemical or chemi-
cals which may cause serious illness or death and
which are known to the State of California to cause
cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm.
WARNING
To prevent possible death, personal injury or property
damage due to electrical shock, the furnace must be
located to protect the electrical components from wa-
ter.
CAUTION
This unit must not be used as a “construction heater”
during the finishing phases of construction on a new
structure. This type of use may result in premature fail-
ure of the unit due to extremely low return air tempera-
tures and exposure to corrosive or very dirty atmo-
spheres.
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Precautions
Note: Discharge body’s static electricity before touching
unit. An electrostatic discharge can adversely affect elec-
trical components.
Use the following precautions during furnace installation
and servicing to protect the integrated control module from
damage. By putting the furnace, the control, and the per-
son at the same electrostatic potential, these steps will help
avoid exposing the integrated control module to electro-
static discharge. This procedure is applicable to both in-
stalled and uninstalled (ungrounded) furnaces.
1. Disconnect all power to the furnace. Do not touch the
integrated control module or any wire connected to the
control prior to discharging your body’s electrostatic
charge to ground.
2. Firmly touch a clean, unpainted, metal surface of the
furnaces near the control. Any tools held in a person’s
hand during grounding will be discharged.
3. Service integrated control module or connecting wiring
following the discharge process in step 2. Use caution
not to recharge your body with static electricity; (i.e., do
not move or shuffle your feet, do not touch ungrounded
objects, etc.). If you come in contact with an ungrounded
object, repeat step 2 before touching control or wires.
4. Discharge your body to ground before removing a new
control from its container. Follow steps 1 through 3 if
installing the control on a furnace. Return any old or
new controls to their containers before touching any un-
grounded object.

ing propane, a propane conversion kit is required).
Dual certification means that the combustion air inlet pipe
is optional and the furnace can be vented as a:
Non-direct vent (single pipe) central forced air fur-
nace in which combustion air is taken from the in-
stallation area or from air ducted from the outside or,
Direct vent (dual pipe) central forced air furnace in
which all combustion air supplied directly to the fur-
nace burners through a special air intake system
outlined in these instructions.
To ensure proper installation, operation and servicing, thor-
oughly read the installation and service manuals for specif-
ics pertaining to the installation, servicing and application
of this product.
