Safety Controls
Your unit is equipped with an
automatic reset safety limit control to
prevent overheating. When this
control opens, it shuts down the
heating electrical circuit until the unit
cools down sufficiently. Inadequate
airflow (i.e., caused by dirty filters or
defective fan motor) may cause the
unit to cycle on and off as the limit
trips and automatically resets. If you
suspect that the unit is cycling on it's
limit control, immediately contact a
service person for instructions.
If flames from the burner are not

Protection Control will open causing
the furnace to shut off. The cause
must be investigated by a qualified
service person.
