temperature. The purpose of the mild temperature thermostat  
is to automatically disable the gas controls when the inlet  
air temperature reaches the desired setpoint to prevent the  
furnace from excessively cycling at mild outside air temperature  
WARNING  
1. Disconnect power supply before making wiring  
connections or working on this equipment. Follow all  
applicable safety procedures to prevent accidental power  
up. Failure to do so can result in injury or death from

the Installation and Service Manual originally shipped  
with the appliance, in addition to any other accompanying  
component supplier literature.  
Installation  
Select a location in the inlet air stream where the temperature  
element senses the average outdoor air temperature and is  
free in air circulation. Hold the temperature elements in the air  
stream with either a field supplier duct sensor holder or a bulb  
mounting clip. The control must be located in an area suitable  
for a NEMA 1 enclosure. The control is normally mounted to a  
surface through holes in back of the case.  
Do not dent or deform the sensitive bulb of the control. A dent  
or deformation will change the calibration and cause the control  
to cycle at a temperature lower than the dial setting. When the  
bulb mounting clip is used to mount the bulb in the air stream,  
be sure the sheet metal screw does not pierce the tubing.
