Priming Condensate Trap
The condensate trap should be primed with water prior
to start-up to ensure proper condensate drainage. Either
pour 10 î. oz. (300 ml) of water into the trap, or follow
these steps to prime the trap:
1 - Follow the lighting instructions to place the unit into
operation.
2 - Set the thermostat to initiate a heating demand.
3 - Allow the burners to îżre for approximately 3 minutes.
4 - Adjust the thermostat to deactivate the heating
demand.
5 - Wait for the combustion air inducer to stop. Set the
thermostat to initiate a heating demand and again
allow the burners to îżre for approximately 3 minutes.
6 - Adjust the thermostat to deactivate the heating
demand and wait for the combustion air inducer to
stop. At this point, the trap should be primed with
sufîżcient water to ensure proper condensate drain
operation.
WARNING
If you do not follow these instructions exactly, a îżre or
explosion may result causing property damage, personal
injury or death.
Gas Valve Operation (Figure 60)
1 - STOP! Read the safety information at the beginning
of his section.
2 - Set the thermostat to the lowest setting.
3 - Turn off all electrical power to the unit.
4 - This furnace is equipped with an ignition device
which automatically lights the burners. Do not try to
light the burners by hand.
5 - Remove the access panel.
6 - Move gas valve switch to OFF. See îżgure 60.
7 - Wait îżve minutes to clear out any gas. If you then
smell gas, STOP! Immediately call your gas supplier
from a neighborâs phone. Follow the gas supplierâs
instructions. If you do not smell gas go to next step.
8 - Move gas valve switch to ON. See îżgure 60.

9 - Replace the access panel.
10- Turn on all electrical power to to the unit.
11- Set the thermostat to desired setting.
NOTE - When unit is initially started, steps 1 through
11 may need to be repeated to purge air from gas
line.
12- If the appliance will not operate, follow the
instructions âTurning Off Gas to Unitâ and call your
service technician or gas supplier.
Turning Off Gas to Unit
1 - Set the thermostat to the lowest setting.
2 - Turn off all electrical power to the unit if service is to
be performed.
3 - Remove the access panel.
4 - Move gas valve switch to OFF.
5 - Replace the access panel.
Failure To Operate
If the unit fails to operate, check the following:
1 - Is the thermostat calling for heat?
2 - Are access panels securely in place?
3 - Is the main disconnect switch closed?
4 - Is there a blown fuse or tripped breaker?
5 - Is the îżlter dirty or plugged? Dirty or plugged îżlters
will cause the limit control to shut the unit off.
6 - Is gas turned on at the meter?
7 - Is the manual main shut-off valve open?
8 - Is the internal manual shut-off valve open?
9 - Is the unit ignition system in lockout? If the unit locks
out again, inspect the unit for blockages.
Heating Sequence Of Operation
1 - When thermostat calls for heat, combustion air
inducer starts.
2 - Combustion air pressure switch proves blower
operation. Switch is factory set and requires no
adjustment.
3 - After a 15-second prepurge, the hot surface ignitor
energizes.
4 - After a 20-second ignitor warm-up period, the gas
valve solenoid opens. A 4-second trial for ignition
period begins.â
5 - Gas is ignited, îame sensor proves the îame, and
the combustion process continues.
6 - If îame is not detected after îżrst ignition trial, the
ignition control will repeat steps 3 and 4 four
more times before locking out the gas valve
(âWATCHGUARDâ îame failure mode). The ignition
control will then automatically repeat steps 1 through
6 after 60 minutes. To interrupt the 60-minute
âWATCHGUARDâ period, move thermostat from
âHeatâ to âOFFâ then back to âHeatâ. Heating
sequence then restarts at step 1.
