Important Safety Instructions
As a professional installer, you have an obligation to know the
product better than the customer. This includes all safety pre-
cautions and related items. Prior to actual installation, thor-
oughly familiarize yourself with this Instruction Manual. Pay
special attention to all safety warnings. Remember, it is
your
responsibility to install the product safely and to know it well
enough to be able to instruct a customer in its safe use.
Safety is a matter of common sense...a matter of thinking be-
fore acting. Most dealers have a list of specific, good safety
practices...follow them.
The precautions listed in this Installation Manual are intended
as supplemental to existing practices. However, if there is a
direct conflict between existing practices and the content of
this manual, the precautions listed here take precedence.
HIGH VOLTAGE!
Failure to do so may cause property
damage, personal injury or death.
Disconnect ALL power before servicing or
installing this unit. Multiple power sources
may be present.
CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING HAZARD
-
Special Warning for Installation of Furnace or Air Handling Units in
Enclosed Areas such as Garages, Utility Rooms or Parking Areas
Carbon monoxide producing devices (such as an automobile, space
heater, gas water heater, etc.) should not be operated in enclosed areas
such as unventilated garages, utility rooms or parking areas because of
the danger of carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning resulting from the exhaust
emissions. If a furnace or air handler is installed in an enclosed area such
as a garage, utility room or parking area and a carbon monoxide producing
device is operated therein, there must be adequate, direct outside
ventilation.
This ventilation is necessary to avoid the danger of CO poisoning which
can occur if a carbon monoxide producing device continues to operate in
the enclosed area. Carbon monoxide emissions can be (re)circulated
throughout the structure if the furnace or air handler is operating in any
mode.
CO can cause serious illness including permanent brain damage or death.
