Determining Nominal System Capacity
To select the appropriate airflows for the air handler, the 
nominal system capacity must be known. The nominal 
system capacity is always the nominal capacity of the 
outdoor unit. However, in some situations the nominal 
system capacity may not be the same as the nominal 
capacity of the air handler. Always refer to the nominal 
capacity of the outdoor unit to determine the nominal 
system capacity.
NOTE: The CFM values listed in Table 9 (page 22) are 
not dependent on duct static pressure. The VSHE motor 
automatically compensates for changes in duct static 
pressure (within the limits of the motor).
3-Speed Units
The blower speed is preset at the factory for operation 
at the same speed for heating and cooling, by using the 
jumping terminal on the blower motor and connecting it 
to the desired speed with both the red and black wires 
connected to the jumping terminal. 
NOTE: The control 
board is programmed with a 40 second off delay in the 
cooling mode for optimum system performance and 
efficiency.
 CAUTION:
To avoid personal injury or property damage, 
make sure the motor leads do not come into 
contact with any uninsulated metal components 
of the unit.
For optimum system performance and comfort, it may be 
necessary to change the factory set speed. See Table 5 
(page 19) for airflow data. To change the blower speed:
1. Disconnect all electrical power to the unit and remove 
the upper door.
2. Remove the black and red wires from the blower motor 
jumping terminal. Discard the blower motor jumping 
terminal.
3. Connect the heating speed wire (red) and the cooling 
speed wire (black) to the desired blower speed marked 
on the terminal block of the blower motor.
•  Terminal 4 = Hi speed
•  Terminal 5 = Med speed
•  Terminal 6 = Low speed
Refrigerant Charging
The system refrigerant charge can be checked and 
adjusted through the service ports provided at the front 
panel of the outdoor unit. Use only gauge lines which have 
a Schrader depression device present to actuate the valve.
Air Circulation
Running the Blower Continuously
Set the thermostat’s system mode to 
OFF and the 
thermostat’s fan mode to 
ON. The blower motor should 
run continuously. Check for air delivery at the register(s). 
Ensure that there are no obstructions at the registers or 
in the ducts.
Selecting continuous low speed fan operation
(Standard Blower)
The air handler is equipped with an option of continuous 
low speed fan operation. When 
G is energized without Y/
Y2, the air handler will operate using the cooling speed. 
With 
G & Y/Y2 or Y/Y2 energized, the air handler will 
operate in the selected cooling speed (including 40 sec 
blower-off delay).
Turning the Blower Off
Set thermostat’s fan mode to 
AUTO, the blower will shut 
down immediately.
System Cooling
1. Set the thermostat’s system mode to 
COOL and fan 
mode to 
AUTO. Lower the thermostat’s temperature 
mode below room temperature and observe that the 
blower energizes. Check the air being discharged at 
the register is cooler than room temperature. Verify 
unit refrigerant pressures are in order. Blower should 
be turning in direction indicated by arrow. 
 NOTE: DO NOT alter unit wiring. Listen for any unusual 
noises. Locate the source and correct as needed.
2. Allow the unit to run for several minutes and then set 
the thermostat’s temperature above room temperature. 
Verify the blower cycles off with the thermostat.
System Heating
1. Set the thermostat’s system mode to 
HEAT and the fan 
mode to 
AUTO. Increase the thermostat’s temperature 
above room temperature and observe that the blower 
energizes. Check the air being discharged at the register 
is warmer than room temperature.
2. Allow the unit to run for several minutes and then set 
the thermostat’s temperature below room temperature. 
Verify the blower cycles off with the thermostat.
Selecting Minimum Electric Heat Airflow
The minimum electric heat airflow setting controls the 
minimum air flow that will be produced whenever electric 
heater kits are used. When the electric heater kit is 
energized along with a heat pump, the airflow may be 
higher depending on the basic cooling/heat-pump airflow 
setting. The minimum electric heat airflow is selected by 
the red blower wire on 3-speed models or setting switches 
1,2,3 & 4 on HMG**X1E models. HCG**V1E models 
automatically set the heating speed based on the amount 
of installed heat. The remaining 3 HEAT switches have no 
function. Switch settings are listed in Table 6 (page 20) 
or Table 9 (page 22). 
NOTE: For HMG**X1E Models, the 
minimum electric heat airflow setting may be set higher, 
but must never be set lower than the setting shown in 
Table 7 (page 21).
