GENERAL INFORMATION
This gas heating/electric cooling unit has been designed
and built to provide many years of safe and dependable
comfort, providing it is properly installed and maintained.
With regular maintenance, this unit will operate satisfactorily
year after year. Abuse, improper use, and/or improper
maintenance can shorten the life of the appliance and
create hazards for you. Please read this manual carefully
to familiarize yourself with operation, maintenance, and
safety procedures for this unit.
A regular service and maintenance schedule should be
established to ensure efficient and safe operation of the
unit. Contact your dealer for a periodic unit inspection by
a qualified service technician.
WARNING:
To avoid possible equipment damage, fire,
or death, the following instructions must be
observed regarding unit location, combustion air
requirements, and operation procedures.
Gas Heating/Electric CoolingUnit Location—The area
around the gas heating/electric cooling unit and the vicinity
of any other gas appliances must be kept clear and free
of combustible materials, gasoline, and other flammable
vapors and liquids. Do not store or use flammable items
such as paint, varnish, or strippers in the vicinity of the unit.
Do not use the area around the unit as a storage area.
This area must be kept clear and clean. The unit must
also be kept clear of loose or exposed insulation materials.
Examine the unit’s area when it is installed or when
insulation is added, since some insulation materials may
be combustible.
Do not use this appliance if any part has been under water.
Immediately call a qualified service technician to inspect
the unit and to replace any part of the control system and
any gas control which has been under water.
Familiarize yourself with the controls that shut off the gas
and electrical power to the unit. If the unit is to be shut
down for an extended period of time, turn off both the gas
and electrical power. For your safety always turn off both
the gas and electrical power before performing service or
maintenance on the furnace.
Combustion Air Supply—The gas heating/electric
cooling unit needs an adequate supply of combustion
and ventilation air for proper and safe operation. Do not
block or obstruct air openings on the unit or air openings
supplying the area where it is installed.
If the unit is operated with inadequate combustion air
supply, the flame roll-out control switch located above the
burners will open, turning off the gas supply to the burners.
The flame roll-out control is a manual-reset device. DO
NOT install a jumper wire across this switch to defeat its
function. DO NOT reset the control without identifying and
correcting the fault condition which caused the control to
trip. If this switch must be replaced, use only the factory
specified replacement part.
CAUTION:
Combustion air must not be drawn from a
corrosive atmosphere.
To maximize heat exchanger life, the combustion air
must be free of chemicals which form corrosive acidic
compounds in the combustion gases. Some examples
of these chemicals are chlorine, fluorine, and sulphur.
Some common sources of these chemicals are detergents,
bleaches, aerosol sprays, cleaning solvents, and a wide
variety of commercial and household products.
Ductwork—
WARNING:
Failure to prevent products of combustion from
being circulated into the occupied space can
create potentially hazardous conditions including
carbonmonoxidepoisoningthatcouldresultin
personal injury or death.
The duct connections must be physically sound and sealed
to the unit’s casing to prevent products of combustion
from entering the occupied space.
The return air and circulating air ductwork must not be
connected to any other heat producing device such as
a fireplace insert, stove, etc. Doing so may result in fire,
explosion, personal injury, carbon monoxide poisoning,
or property damage.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Cooling Operation— 2 Stage
1. Set the thermostat system switch to COOL and the
thermostat fan switch to AUTO. (See Figure 1)
2. Set the thermostat temperature selector to the desired
temperature level. The outdoor fans, compressors, and
indoor blower will all cycle on and off to maintain the
indoor temperature at the desired cooling level.
4
Figure 1. Typical Thermostat
Heating Operation — 2 Stage
1. Set the thermostat system switch to HEAT and the
thermostat fan switch to AUTO. (See Figure 1)
2. Set the thermostat temperature selector to the desired
temperature level. The indoor blower and gas heat
module will cycle on and off to maintain the indoor
temperature at the desired heating level.
NOTE: There is a factory set 3 minute time delay between
Stage 1 and Stage 2 heat when Stage 2 heating is required.
WARNING:
Should overheating occur, or the gas supply fail
to shut off, shut off the manual gas valve to the
unit before shutting off the electrical supply.
NOTE: This unit is equipped with a manual-reset flame
roll-out limit switch. This switch acts to verify that the
burner flame is being drawn into the heat exchanger
tubes. If the flame is not being drawn into the tubes, the
flame roll-out switch will open within several seconds.
When this switch opens, the gas valve will de-energize
to stop the flow of gas. The combustion inducer will stay
energized and continue to operate until the thermostat is
satisfied or the switch is closed. Do not reset the flame
roll-out switch before identifying and correcting the fault
condition that caused the switch to open. If the switch
will not reset or continues to open, immediately contact
a qualified serviceman to identify and repair the problem.
System Shutdown—Set the thermostat system
switch to OFF and the thermostat fan switch to AUTO.
(See Figure 1)
The system will not operate, regardless of the thermostat
temperature selector(s) setting.
To Operate the Indoor Blower Continuously —Set the
thermostat fan switch to ON (may be called CONT on
some thermostat models). (See Figure 1)
The indoor blower will start immediately, and will run
continually until the fan switch is reset to AUTO.
The continuous indoor blower operation can be obtained
with the thermostat system switch set in any position,
including OFF.
The continuous indoor blower operation is typically used to
circulate the indoor air to equalize a temperature unbalance
due to a solar load, cooking, or fireplace operation.
