OPERATING YOUR UNIT
The operation of your unit is controlled by the indoor temperature
control (thermostat). You simply adjust the thermostat and it
maintains the indoor temperature at the level you select. Most
thermostats of heating and cooling systems have 3 controls: a
temperature control selector, a FAN control, and a SYSTEM or
MODE control. Refer to your thermostat owner’s manual for more
information.
To better protect your investment and to eliminate unnecessary
service calls, familiarize yourself with the following facts:
Cooling Mode
With the SYSTEM control set to COOL, your unit will run in
cooling mode until the indoor temperature is lowered to the level
you have selected. On extremely hot days, your unit will run for
longer periods at a time and have shorter “off” periods than on
moderate days.
Gas Heat Mode
With the SYSTEM or MODE control of your indoor thermostat set
to HEAT, your unit will run in heating mode until room
temperature is raised to the level you have selected. On cold days
and nights, your system will typically run for longer periods of
time and have shorter “off” periods than on moderate days.
MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE
This section discusses maintenance that should be performed on
your system. Most maintenance should be performed by your
dealer. You, as the owner, may wish to handle some minor
maintenance for your new unit.
Routine Maintenance
All routine maintenance should be handled by skilled, experienced
personnel. Your dealer can help you establish a standard procedure.
For your safety, keep the unit area clear and free of combustible
materials, gasoline, and other flammable liquids and vapors.
To assure proper functioning of the unit, flow of condenser air
must not be obstructed from reaching the unit. Clearance from the
top of the unit is 48 in. (1219 mm). Clearance of at least 36 in.
(914 mm) is required on sides except the power entry side (42 in.
(1067 mm) clearance) and the duct side (12 in. (305 mm)
minimum clearance). Also, ensure that the return--air duct
connection (s) is physically sound, is sealed to the furnace casing,
and terminates outside the space containing the furnace.
