Product Usage Instructions

Installation

The FG7MQ gas furnace can be installed free-standing in a utility room, basement, or enclosed in an alcove or closet. It is suitable for both upflow and horizontal applications. The extended flush jacket provides a pleasing appliance appearance. Please refer to the installation manual for detailed instructions on how to install the furnace in your desired location.

Operation

To operate the FG7MQ gas furnace, follow these steps:

1. Ensure that the gas supply is turned on and the thermostat is set to the desired temperature.
2. The furnace will automatically modulate the gas flow and adjust the blower speed to maintain the set temperature.
3. If there are any issues with the furnace’s operation, refer to the troubleshooting section of the user manual.

Maintenance

To ensure optimal performance and longevity of the FG7MQ gas furnace, regular maintenance is recommended. Here are some maintenance tasks:

• Clean or replace the air filters regularly to ensure proper airflow.
• Inspect and clean the combustion chamber and burners annually.
• Lubricate the blower motor bearings as per the manufacturer’s instructions.
• Check and clean the condensate drain to prevent blockages.
• Inspect the venting system for any obstructions or damage.

Safety Precautions
When operating and maintaining the FG7MQ gas furnace, it is important to follow these safety precautions:

• Always turn off the gas supply and power before performing any maintenance or repair tasks.
• Ensure proper ventilation in the installation area to prevent the buildup of carbon monoxide.
• Keep flammable materials away from the furnace.
• Do not attempt to modify or repair any components without proper knowledge and training.
• If you smell gas or suspect a gas leak, immediately evacuate the area and contact a qualified technician.
