SEQUENCE OF OPERATION
The electric heat in this unit has an on--delay of 1--30 seconds and
an off--delay of 30--60 seconds. The on--delay will delay the start of
the electric heater and blower 1--30 seconds after a W1 call.
The off--delay is 30--60 seconds and will keep the heater and
blower running after the W1 call ends. The blower will energize
with electric heater if not already running.
VERIFY INSTALLATION
After completion of heater installation, check wiring to ensure
tightness and that proper connections and routings have been
made. Ensure all electrical covers are in place. Reinstall blower
access panel before turning unit power on.
