After successful installation, follow these steps to initiate furnace operation:

1. Restore power to the furnace at the main breaker.
2. Set the thermostat to a desired temperature that is higher than the current room temperature to call for heat.
3. Observe the furnace's operation. The control board will initiate the ignition sequence, fan operation, and other functions as required.
4. Monitor for any error codes displayed on the control board (if applicable) or unusual sounds.

For specific operational modes (e.g., cooling, continuous fan), refer to your furnace's primary user manual and thermostat instructions.

• Dust and Debris: Ensure the area around the control board and within the furnace is free from excessive dust and debris, which can impede airflow and component cooling.
• Wiring Integrity: Periodically check for any loose, frayed, or corroded wiring connections.

Always disconnect power before performing any maintenance or inspection.

6. Troubleshooting

This section provides general troubleshooting guidance. For complex issues, consult a qualified HVAC technician.
