I - GENERAL

Make sure all power is disconnected before
beginning electrical service procedures.

DANGER

10ACC condensing units are available in 1 -1/2, 2, 2 -1/2, 3, 3
-1/2, 4 and 5 ton capacities.

All major components (indoor blower and coil) must be
matched according to Lennox recommendations for the com-
pressor to be covered under warranty. Refer to the Engineer-
ing Handbook for approved system matchups. A misapplied
system will cause erratic operation and can result in early
compressor failure.
