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 “Turning Off Gas to Unit” and call the
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 the gas valve switch to the OFF position.
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?
5 - Is the lter dirty or plugged? Dirty or plugged lters
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 gas valve turned on?
9 - Is the unit ignition system in lock out? If the unit
locks out again, inspect the unit for blockages.
10 - Is blower harness connected to ignition control?
Furnace will not operate unless harness is
connected.
High Altitude Information
NOTE - In Canada, certication for installations at eleva-
tions over 4500 feet (1372 m) is the jurisdiction of local
authorities.
SLP98DFV units require no manifold pressure adjust-
ments for operation at altitudes up to 10,000 feet (3048
m) above sea level. Units installed at altitude of 7,501 to
10,000 feet (2287 to 3048m) require a pressure switch
change per table 29. Table 29 also lists conversion kit re-
quirements.
The combustion air pressure switch is factory-set and re-
quires no adjustment.

Furnace should operate at least 5 minutes before check-
ing gas ow. Determine time in seconds for two revolu-
tions of gas through the meter. (Two revolutions assures a
more accurate time.) Divide by two and compare to time
in table 26. If manifold pressure matches table 30 and rate
is incorrect, check gas orices for proper size and restric-
tion. Remove temporary gas meter if installed.
NOTE - To obtain accurate reading, shut off all other gas
appliances connected to meter.
Supply Pressure Measurement
A threaded plug on the inlet side of the gas valve provides
access to the supply pressure tap. Remove the thread-
ed plug, install a eld-provided barbed tting and connect
a manometer to measure supply pressure. Replace the
threaded plug after measurements have been taken.
Proper Combustion
Furnace should operate minimum 15 minutes with correct
manifold pressure and gas ow rate before checking com-
bustion. Take combustion sample beyond the ue outlet
and compare to the tables below. The maximum carbon
monoxide reading should not exceed 100 ppm.
