NOTE:
For models equipped with WILLIAMS gas valve P323209 or

On new installations, the gas lines will be filled with air and it may

CLOTHING, FURNITURE, AND FLAMMABLE
MATERIAL AWAY FROM IT

SAFETY CONTROLS
These furnace are protected against unsafe operation by five
automatic safety controls: (1) A safety pilot acts to shut OFF the
gas valve in case of pilot failure; (2) A redundant gas valve; (3) A
limit switch shuts down the main burner to prevent overheating
the furnace cabinet; (4) A vent safety shutoff device shuts down
the main burner to protect against improper venting of combustion
products. These limit switches will reset when furnace cools; and
(5) A thermal overload protects the motor against burnout caused
by current surges or if anything should block the flow of air
through the furnace. This switch will reset itself when the motor
cools down and it cannot be adjusted.

EYE INJURY OR BLINDNESS.
