DESCRIPTION
The 50M56U-843 is a Universal Single Stage HSI Integrated
Furnace Control that employs a microprocessor to continually
monitor, analyze, and control the proper operation of the gas
burner, inducer, and fan.
PRECAUTIONS
Installation should be done by a qualified heating and air
conditioning contractor or licensed electrician.

INSTALLATION
The 50M56U-843 has only one serviceable part–an automotive
type fuse, which protects the low voltage transformer from
damage if the output is short-circuited. If the fuse has opened
up, remove whatever caused the short circuit and replace
the fuse with only a 3 Amp automotive type fuse. If the fuse
does not correct the condition, replace the entire 50M56U-843
control. There are no other user serviceable parts.
