6- The ignition sequence will start.
7- If the appliance does not light the first time (gas line
not fully purged), it will attempt up to two more
ignitions before locking out.
8- If lockout occurs, repeat steps 1 through 10.
9- If the appliance will not operate, follow the
instructions “Turning Off Gas to Appliance” and call
your service technician or gas supplier.
Turning Off Gas to Unit
1- If using an electromechanical thermostat, set to the
lowest setting.
2- Before performing any service, turn off all electrical
power to the appliance.
3- Open or remove the control section access panel.
4- Move gas valve switch to
OFF
.
5- Close or replace the control section access panel.
WARNING
Danger of explosion. Can cause injury or
death. Do not attempt to light manually.
Unit has a direct spark ignition system.
Heating Operation and Adjustments
A-Heating Sequence of Operation
1- Set outdoor thermostat setpoint above the outdoor
ambient temperature to disable heat pump operation.
2- On a heating demand the combustion air inducer
starts immediately.
3- Combustion air pressure switch proves inducer
operation. After a 30-second pre-purge, power is
allowed to ignition control. Switch is factory set and
requires no adjustment.
12- Spark ignitor energizes and gas valve solenoid opens.
13- Spark ignites gas, ignition sensor proves the flame
and combustion continues.
14- If flame is not detected after first ignition trial, ignition
control will repeat steps 3 and 4 two more times
before locking out the gas valve.
15- For troubleshooting purposes, an ignition attempt
after lock out may be re-established manually. Move
thermostat to “OFF” and return thermostat switch to
“HEAT” position.

C-Limit Controls
Limit controls are factory-set and are not adjustable. The
primary limit is located to the right of the combustion air
inducer. See figure 28.
If the primary limit trips three times in the same heating
cycle, heating operation will de-energize. Heating will
automatically restart after one hour if a heating demand is
present. To initiate heating during the one hour timed-off
interval, reset the thermostat.
D-Heating Adjustment
Main burners are factory-set and do not require
adjustment.
The following manifold pressures are listed on the gas valve.
Natural Gas Units - Low Fire - 2.0” w.c.
Natural Gas Units - High Fire - 3.5” w.c.
LP Gas Units - Low Fire - 5.9” w.c.
LP Gas Units - High Fire - 10.5” w.c.
