WARNING
 Disconnect power by opening
the circuit breaker or removing
the fuses before installing or
servicing.
 Use a non-contact circuit tester
to confirm that power is off
before working on or near any
electrical parts.
 Ensure that the gas supply is
shut off at the manual gas
shutoff valve.
 Replace the front cover after
servicing.
 Failure to follow these warnings
can lead to personal injury or
death.
Consider removing the following
sections from this manual for easy
reference:
• “Component Diagrams/Item
Numbers” (starting on page 71).
• Figure 41 (p. 49) or Figure
42 (p. 50) which shows the
location of basic components.
This will allow you to lay the loose
pages beside this manual for easier
reference.
Also, screw sizes vary. We recommend
bagging and labeling screws as you
remove them, or reinstall them in
their proper places as you proceed
with disassembly. This will make
reassembly easier.
