Circulator blower continues running for the selected heat
off delay period (90, 120, 150 or 180 seconds). The
speed run during this period depends on the last heat
call provided by the thermostat.
If the last call for heat was a call for low heat, the air
circulator motor will run on low heat speed for the duration
of the heat off delay period (90, 120, 150 or 180 seconds).
If the last call for heat was a call for high heat, the air
circulating motor will run on the high heating speed for
thirty (30) seconds and then switch to the low heating
speed for the balance of the heat off delay period (60,
90, 120 or 150 seconds).

The burner flames should be inspected with the burner com-
partment door installed. Flames should be stable, quiet, soft,
and blue (dust may cause orange tips but they must not be
yellow). Flames should extend directly outward from the burn-
ers without curling, floating, or lifting off. Flames must not
impinge on the sides of the heat exchanger firing tubes.
