4 -   After the 20-second warm-up period has ended, the 
gas valve  is energized  and  ignition occurs,  which 
initiates a 10-second ignition stabilization delay. At 
the same time, the control module sends a signal 
to begin an indoor  blower 45-second ON delay. 
When the delay ends, the indoor blower motor is 
energized at a speed which is appropriate for the 
ring rate. After the 10-second igni tion stabilization 
delay expires, the inducer speed is adjusted to 35 
percent speed. The integrated control also initiates 
a second-stage on delay (factory-set at 7 minutes; 
adjustable to 12 minutes).
5 -   If the heating demand continues beyond the 
secondstage on delay, the integrated control 
energizes the combustion air inducer at 70 percent 
speed. The indoor blower motor is adjusted to 
a  speed  which  matches  the  target  rate.  A  xed, 
10-minute third-stage on delay is initiated.
6 -   If the heating demand continues beyond the 
thirdstage on delay, the integrated control energizes 
the inducer at high speed. The indoor blower motor 
is adjusted to a speed which is appropriate for the 
target rate.
7 -   When the  thermostat heating  demand is  satised, 
the gas valve is de-energized and the combustion 
air inducer begins a 20-second post-purge. The 
eld-selected indoor blower off delay begins.
8 -   When the combustion air post-purge period is 
complete, the inducer  is de-energized. The indoor 
blower is de-energized at the end of the off delay.
Service
 WARNING
ELECTRICAL SHOCK, FIRE,
OR EXPLOSION HAZARD.
Failure to follow safety warnings exactly could result in 
dangerous operation, serious injury, death or property 
damage. Improper servicing could result in dangerous 
operation, serious injury, death, or property damage. 
Before servicing, disconnect all electrical power to 
furnace. When servicing controls, label all wires prior to 
disconnecting. Take care to reconnect wires correctly. 
Verify proper operation after servicing.
 WARNING
The blower access panel must be securely in place when 
the blower and burners are operating. Gas fumes, which 
could contain carbon monoxide, can be drawn into living 
space resulting in personal injury or death.
Annual Furnace Maintenance
At the beginning of each heating season, and to compl 
ith the Lennox Limited Warranty, your system should be 
checked as follows:
1 -   Check wiring for loose connections, voltage at 
indoor unit and amperage of indoor motor.
2 -   Check the condition of the belt and shaft bearings 
if applicable.
3 -  Inspect all gas pipe and connections for leaks.
4 -   Check  the  cleanliness  of  lters  and  change  if 
necessary (monthly).
5 -   Check the condition and cleanliness of burners and 
heat exchanger and clean if necessary.
6 -   Check the cleanliness of blower assembly and 
clean the housing, blower wheel and blower motor 
if necessary. 
7 -   Inspect the condensate drain and trap for leaks and 
cracks. The drain and trap must also be cleaned 
and the trap must be primed with water. Inspect the 
rubber hoses connected to the pressure switches for 
cracks or loose connections, replace as necessary. 
Remove the rubber hoses from the cold end header 
box and inspect for any blockage, clean as needed. 
If strainers are installed in the hoses remember to 
remove and clean before reinstalling the hoses.
8 -   Evaluate the heat exchanger integrity by inspecting 
the heat exchanger per the AHRI heat exchanger 
inspection procedure. This procedure can be 
viewed at www.ahrinet.org
9 -   Ensure sufcient combustion air is available to the 
furnace. Fresh air grilles and louvers (on the unit 
and in the room where the furnace is installed) 
must be properly sized, open and unobstructed to 
provide combustion air.
10 -  On condensing furnaces, inspect the furnace intake 
and exhaust pipes to make sure they are in place, 
structurally sound, without holes, blockage or 
leakage and the exhaust pipe is sloped toward the 
furnace. Inspect terminations to ensure they are free 
of obstructions and are structurally sound. Inspect 
the furnace return air duct connection to ensure the 
duct is sealed to the furnace. Check for air leaks on 
supply and return ducts and seal where necessary.
11 -  Inspect the furnace return air duct connection to 
ensure the duct is sealed to the furnace. Check for 
air leaks on supply and return ducts and seal where 
necessary.
12 -  Check the condition of the furnace cabinet insulation 
and repair if necessary.
13 -  Perform a complete combustion analysis during the 
furnace inspection to ensure proper combustion 
and operation. Consult Service Literature for proper 
combustion values.
