Carrier 58MXA User Manual

3. After touching the chassis, you may proceed to service the
control or connecting wires as long as you do nothing to
recharge your body with static electricity (for example; DO
NOT move or shuffle your feet, do not touch ungrounded
objects, etc.).
4. If you touch ungrounded objects (and recharge your body with
static electricity), firmly touch a clean, unpainted metal
surface of the furnace again before touching control or wires.
5. Use this procedure for installed and uninstalled (ungrounded)
furnaces.
6. Before removing a new control from its container, discharge
your body’s electrostatic charge to ground to protect the
control from damage. If the control is to be installed in a
furnace, follow items 1 through 4 before bringing the control
or yourself in contact with the furnace. Put all used and new
controls into containers before touching ungrounded objects.
7. An ESD service kit (available from commercial sources) may
also be used to prevent ESD damage.
Local codes may require a drain pan under entire furnace and
condensate trap when a condensing furnace is used in an attic
application or over a finished ceiling. Failure to follow this
caution will result in minor property damage.
