WARNING
PERSONAL INJURY HAZARD
To avoid personal injury or fire, minimum
clearancestocombustiblesurfacesmustbe
followed.
7. Make certain the required clearances for the furnace are
always maintained. These clearances are listed on the
furnacenameplate.Ifanyquestiondevelops,contactthe
installer of the furnace, or another qualified servicer.
Unit Installation
Examine the furnace installation to determine the following:
1. The flue vent pipe is physically sound and sealed. The
vent slopes upward to vent terminal so condensate
drains back toward the furnace. The vent shows no
evidence of leaking or separation at joints or fittings.
2. Thereturnairductconnectionisphysicallysound,sealed
to the furnace casing, and terminates outside the space
containing the furnace.
3. The physical support of the furnace is sound without
sagging, cracks, or gaps around the base so as to
provide a seal between the support and the base.
4. There are no obvious signs of deterioration of the fur-
nace.
5. Check the burner flames to for adjustment.

This furnace is built to provide many years of safe and
dependable service, providing it is properly installed and
maintained.However,abuseand/orimproperusecanshorten
the life of the furnace and create hazards for you, the
homeowner.
WARNING
PERSONAL INJURY HAZARD
To avoid possible equipment damage, per-
sonal injury, fire or death, the following in-
structions must be observed regarding unit
location,airrequirementsandoperatingpro-
cedures.
Unit Location
1. The furnace area and the vicinity of any other gas
appliances must be kept clear and free of combustible
materials, gasoline, and other flammable vapors and
liquids.Also,donotstoreoruseflammableitemssuchas
paint, varnish, or lacquer in the area.
2.Donotstoreorusechlorineorfluorineproducts(bleaches,
cements, strippers, aerosols) near the unit. They can
corrode the heat exchanger.
3. Do not use the furnace closet as storage for brooms,
mops, brushes and oily rags or cloths. The area must be
kept clear, clean and free of lint. Furnace must be kept
freeand clear ofexposed or looseinsulationmaterials in
the area of installation. Examine the furnace area when
the furnace or additional insulation is added since some
insulation materials may be combustible.
4. Make sure the furnace is always connected to an ap-
proved vent, in good condition, to carry combustion
products outdoors.
5.Familiarizeyourself withthecontrolsthat shutoffthe gas
andelectrical powerto thefurnace.If thefurnace isto be
shut down at the end of the heating season, turn off both
the gas and electrical power. For safety, always turn the
gasand electricalpower off beforeperforming serviceor
maintenance on the furnace.
6. Establish a regular maintenance schedule to insure
efficient and safe operation of the furnace. The furnace
should be checked at the beginning of each heating and
cooling season by a qualified service technician.

Air Requirements
WARNING
PERSONAL INJURY HAZARD
To avoid death, personal injury or property
damage, enough fresh air for proper com-
bustion and ventilation of flue gases must
be provided to this furnace. Most homes
require outside air to be supplied into the
furnace area.
Improved construction and additional insulation in homes
have reduced the heat loss and made these homes much
tighter around doors and windows so that air infiltration is
minimal. This creates a problem to supply ventilation and/or
combustion air for gas fired or other fuel burning appliances.
Any use of appliances that pull air out of the house (clothes
dryers,exhaust fans, fireplaces,etc.) increases thisproblem
and appliances could be starving for air.
If fuel-burning appliances are starved for air, the flue gases
which these appliances produce as they operate may not
vent outdoors properly, but remain in the home instead.
These flue gases may include carbon monoxide.
WARNING
PERSONAL INJURY HAZARD
Death or personal injury from asphyxiation
can result from exposure to carbon monox-
ide.
WARNING
PERSONAL INJURY HAZARD
This product contains or produces a chemi-
cal or chemicals which may cause serious
illness or death and which are known to the
State of California to cause cancer, birth
defects or other reproductive harm.
Carbon monoxide or “CO” is a colorless and odorless gas
produced when fuel is not burned completely or when the
flame does not receive sufficient oxygen.
Be aware of these air starvation signals which indicate
conditions that may result in carbon monoxide or that
carbon monoxide may be present:
1. Headaches-Nausea-Dizziness.
2. Excessive humidity-heavily frosted windows or a moist
“clammy” feeling in the home.
3. Smoke from a fireplace won’t draw up the chimney.
4. Flue gases won’t draw up the appliance vent pipe.

alteration to any venting system must be in
accordance with local and national codes,
and the manufacturer's instructions.
Combustion Air (GUC, GUX and GUD - One Pipe
System)
Normally the air for combustion and ventilation can be
obtainedfromthe surroundingunconfinedspace orlouvered
closet door.
• Whenafurnaceisinstalledinaclosetandtheclosetdoor
is louvered DO NOT OBSTRUCT LOUVERS. Louvers
must be open and clear to provide combustion air to the
furnace.
• When the furnace is installed in a confined space within
a home and the air for combustion and ventilation enters
the space through ducts from the outside...be sure to
check the entering and outlet (grilled) openings so that
they are always clear and clean.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Donotpartitionoffasmall areaaround
the furnace including a non louvered door. This could ob-
struct the combustion air from reaching the furnace.
Combustion Air (GUD - Two Pipe System)
NOTE: To insure proper operation of the furnace, both
combustion air and flue pipes must never become ob-
structed.
NOTE: Theairfor combustionandventilation mustnotcome
from a corrosive atmosphere.
WARNING

tion on Category IV venting, refer to the installation instruc-
tions available from the installing dealer, distributor, or di-
rectly from Amana.
The vent system must slope toward the furnace for drainage
of condensate. Provision must be made to drain the conden-
sate and protect the condensate drain trap and drain line
from freezing conditions.

WARNING
Topreventpossibledeathorpersonalinjury
due to asphyxiation, common venting with
other induced draft appliances is not al-
lowed. Carefully read and follow all instruc-
tions given in this section.
NOTE: The louvers in the furnace door and top must never
be obstructed. They must remain open so air can flow
through the furnace and cool internal components.
Indoor Humidity
Relative humidity is the amount of water vapor in the air
relative to the amount the air can hold at the same tempera-
ture. Example: At 40% relative humidity, the air could hold 2
1/2 times as much moisture (2.5 x 40 = 100%) before
becoming saturated.
The colder the air; the less moisture it can hold. As air is
warmed, its ability to hold moisture is increased.
Example: A winter day, outdoor temperature 10°F, and
relative humidity of 70%. If that air enters a home and is
warmed to 72°F. the relative humidity will drop to 6% (very
dry) if no more moisture is added.
Relative humidity is important to your health and home as
proper humidification helps reduce respiratory difficulties
and helps improve the indoor air quality.
A good relative humidity is one just high enough to barely
startcondensation along thelower edges orlowercorners of
the windows. More than that can be damaging.
Frequent fogging or excessive condensation on inside win-
dows indicates the indoor humidity level is too high for
outdoor weather conditions. Damage to the building may
result if the condition persists. (Condensation on inside of
storm windows indicates loose inside windows. Adding
weather-stripping to tighten inside windows usually corrects
this problem.)
The following table shows the recommended maximum
indoor humidity in relationship to the outdoor temperatures.

WARNING
PERSONAL INJURY HAZARD
To avoid death, personal injury or property
damageduetoexplosionorfire,installagas
detectingwarningdevice. Since theodorant
inpropanegas can bereducedby iron oxide
(rust), a gas detecting warning device is the
only reliable method to detect propane gas
leaks.
WARNING
PERSONAL INJURY HAZARD
If thegas furnace isinstalled in a basement,
an excavated area or a confined space, it is
stronglyrecommendedtocontactapropane
supplier to install a gas detecting warning
device in case of a gas leak.
•Sincepropane gas isheavier than air, any
leaking gas can settle in any low areas or
confined spaces.
•Propane gas odorant may fade, making
the gas undetectable except with a warn-
ing device.
An undetected gas leak will create a danger
of explosion or fire. If the presence of gas is
suspected, follow the instructions on the
cover of this manual. Failure to do so could
result in SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY OR
DEATH.

II. Operation
Thermostat
There are many types and styles of thermostats but the
operation is usually similar. BE SURE TO BECOME FAMIL-
IAR WITH YOUR THERMOSTAT. The simplest type of
thermostat only starts and stops the furnace to maintain the
proper room temperature. The most widely used types will
controlbothheatingandcoolingfunctionsandwillhaveaFan
Switch with Auto and ON settings. On Auto, the Circulating
Air Blower will cycle on/off with the furnace but if switched to
ON it will run constantly whether or not the furnace is on.
In addition there are thermostats that automatically switch
from Heating to Cooling and with night setbacks. The night
set-back, or multiple set-back type, will lower the tempera-
ture at night or during the day when no one is at home.

III. Maintenance
AT LEAST ONCE A YEAR, BEFORE THE HEATING SEA-
SON BEGINS, have the furnace checked by a qualified
servicer to be certain there is adequate combustion air and
that the furnace and the vent system are working properly.
Have the vent pipe and combustion air pipe (some models)
checked for blockage by debris or leaks, which could permit
fumes to enter the house. Replace any damaged sections of
the vent pipe.
WARNING
PERSONAL INJURY HAZARD
To avoid death or personal injury due to
electrical shock, disconnect the electrical
power before performing any maintenance.
Replacing or Cleaning Filters
WARNING
PERSONAL INJURY HAZARD
To avoid death, personal injury or property
damage, never operate furnace without a
filter installed. Dust and lint will build up on
internal parts resulting in loss of efficiency,
equipment damage and possible fire.
Iffilterreplacement becomes necessary, it mustbe replaced
with a filter of the same type and size that complies with
UL900 or CAN/ULC-S111 standards.
See the Specification Sheet for filter sizes.
WARNING
PERSONAL INJURY HAZARD
To avoid death or personal injury due to
electrical shock, disconnect the electrical
powerbeforeremovingfiltersor performing
any maintenance.
The filter is designed for high velocity heating and cooling
applications. Filters must be inspected, cleaned or changed
every two months or as required. It is the owner's responsi-
bility to keep air filters clean. NOTE: Dirty filters are the most
common cause of inadequate heating or cooling perfor-
mance.
To remove the filter contained in the furnace retaining rails,
disconnect electrical power to the furnace and remove the
lower door by turning the door latches 1/4 turn.
Graspthelowerportionofthefilter,liftuptodisengageitfrom
the lower railing, move towards blower, drop filter down. Pull
filter outward. (Figure 8)
Turning Off Furnace
1. Set the thermostat to lowest setting.
2. Turn off the electrical power supply to the furnace.
3. Remove the upper door on the front of the furnace by
turning the latch screws 1/4 turn each.
4. Turn the gas control knob clockwise to the "OFF"
position or either the White Rodgers 36-E gas valve
(Figure 3) or the Honeywell VR-8205 gas valve (Figure
4). For the Robertshaw 7222 gas valve (Figure 5) slide
the lever to the "OFF" position. Do not use excessive
force.
5. Close manual gas shut-off valve external to the furnace.
6. Replace the door on the furnace.
Electronic Control Module
The furnace is equipped with a self-diagnostic electronic
control module. If a furnace component is not operating
properly,thecontrolmodulewillrepeatedlyflasharedlighton
andoffinafactory-programmedsequence,dependingonthe
problem encountered.
If a furnace equipped with a self diagnostic module is not
operating properly, look through the observation window in
the blower access door and make note of the number of
flashes in the sequence. Contact a qualified servicer for
further information. Do not attempt to troubleshoot the prob-
lem yourself.
Reset After Control Lock-Out
If ignition has not been achieved for any reason after three
ignitioncycles,the electronic control module willlock-out the
furnace. Ignition is no longer attempted. A lock-out causes
both the air blower and the vent blower to run continuously,
and ignition is no longer attempted. The control's diagnostic
light will then repeatedly flash once and then pause. When
thisoccurs,itmaybenecessarytoresetthecontrolbyturning
the thermostat setting below room temperature for thirty
seconds and then returning the setting to the desired tem-
perature. The control may also be reset after a lock-out by
turning off the electrical disconnect switch to the furnace for
thirty seconds.
IMPORTANT: If the furnace must be reset frequently to
obtain satisfactory operation, a problem exists with your
furnacethat mustbe corrected.Contact aqualified servicer..
