HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal
injury, death or property damage.
Never operate unit without a filter or with filter access door
removed.
! WARNING
The air filter arrangement will vary due to application, furnace
orientation and filter type. The filter may be installed in an
external Filter/Media cabinet (if provided) or the furnace blower
compartment. Factory supplied washable filters are shipped in the
blower compartment.
If a factory--supplied external Filter/Media cabinet is provided,
instructions for its application, assembly, and installation are
packaged with the cabinet. The Filter/Media cabinet can be used
with the factory--supplied washable filter or a factory--specified
high--efficiency disposable filter (see cabinet instructions).
If installing the filter in the furnace blower compartment,
determine location for filter and relocate filter retaining wire, if
necessary. See Table 2 to determine correct filter size for desired
filter location. Table 2 indicates filter size, location, and quantity
shipped with this furnace. See Fig. 2 for location and size of
bottom and side return--air openings.

Failure to follow this caution may result in personal injury.
Use care when cutting support rods in filters to protect
against flying pieces and sharp rod ends. Wear safety

single side inlets. The use of both side inlets, a combination
of one side and the bottom, or the bottom only will ensure
adequate return air openings for airflow requirements above
