WARNING signifies hazards whichcould result in personal injury or death. CAUTION is used toidentify unsafe practices which would result in minor personalinjury or product and property damage. NOTE is used to highlightsuggestions which will result in enhanced installation, reliability,or operation.ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE (ESD) PRECAUTIONSElectrostatic discharge can affect electronic components.Take precautions during furnace installation and servicing toprotect the furnace electronic control. Precautions will pre-vent electrostatic discharges from personnel and hand toolswhich are held during the procedure. These precautions willhelp to avoid exposing the control to electrostatic dischargeby putting the furnace, the control, and the person at the sameelectrostatic potential.1. Disconnect all power to the furnace. DO NOT TOUCH THECONTROL OR ANY WIRE CONNECTED TO THE CON-TROL PRIOR TO DISCHARGING YOUR BODY’S ELEC-TROSTATIC CHARGE TO GROUND.2. Firmly touch a clean, unpainted, metal surface of the furnacechassis which is close to the control. Tools held in a person’shand during grounding will be satisfactorily discharged.3. After touching the chassis you may proceed to service thecontrol or connecting wires as long as you do nothing thatrecharges your body with static electricity (for example; DO→ Fig. 3—Clearances to CombustiblesA97609323857-101 REV.
