WARNING
T
O AVOID PROPERTY DAMAGE, PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH, SUFFICIENT
FRESH AIR MUST BE SUPPLIED FOR PROPER COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION
OF FLUE GASES.
Since the gas/electric unit is installed completely in the outdoors,
the depletion of combustion air is highly improbable. To ensure
an adequate supply of combustion air, do not allow the combus-
tion air inlet or the flue hood outlet to become blocked by leaves,
snow, rubbish, or insect (wasps) nests. Never block the con-
densing unit section in the winter with covers. Blocking of this
section would prevent an adequate amount of combustion air
from reaching the furnace section.
Great care has been taken in the design and manufacture of your
unit to provide for your comfort and safety. Be aware of the
possibility that some problems with your unit or other gas-fired
appliances could cause flue gases to be present in your building.
These flue gases could include carbon monoxide.

RISQUE D'EMPOISONNEMENT AU MONOXYDE DE CARBONE
Le monoxyde de
des
carbone peut causer des maladies graves telles que
dommages permanents au cerveau et meme la mort.
Cette ventilation est nécessaire pour éviter le danger d'intoxication
au CO pouvant survenir si un appareil produisant du monoxyde
de carbone continue de fonctionner au sein de la zone confinée.
