IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.
WARNING!
For your safety, the information in this manual must be followed to minimize the risk of fire, electric
shock or personal injury.
Use this appliance only for its intended
purpose as described in this Owner’s
Manual.
This air conditioner must be properly
installed in accordance with the
Installation Instructions before it is used.
Never unplug your air conditioner by
pulling on the power cord. Always grip
plug firmly and pull straight out from the
receptacle.
Repair or replace immediately all electric
service cords that have become frayed or
otherwise damaged. Do not use a cord
that shows cracks or abrasion damage
along its length or at either the plug or
connector end.
Turn the mode control OFF and unplug
your air conditioner before making any
repairs or cleaning.
NOTE: We strongly recommend that any
servicing be performed by a qualified
individual.
For your safety…do not store or use
combustible materials, gasoline or other
flammable vapors or liquids in the vicinity
of this or any other appliance.
All air conditioners contain refrigerants,
which under federal law must be removed
prior to product disposal. If you are getting
rid of an old product with refrigerants,
check with the company handling disposal
about what to do.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Do not, under any circumstances, cut or remove
the third (ground) prong from the power cord.
For personal safety, this appliance must be
properly grounded.
The power cord of this appliance is equipped
with a 3-prong (grounding) plug which
mates with a standard 3-prong (grounding)
wall outlet to minimize the possibility of
electric shock hazard from this appliance.
Have the wall outlet and circuit checked
by a qualified electrician to make sure the
outlet is properly grounded.
Where a 2-prong wall outlet is encountered,
it is your personal responsibility and
obligation to have it replaced with a properly
grounded 3-prong wall outlet.
The air conditioner should always be plugged
into its own individual electrical outlet which
has a voltage rating that matches the rating
plate.
This provides the best performance and also
prevents overloading house wiring circuits
which could cause a fire hazard from
overheated wires.
See the Installation Instructions, Electrical
Requirements section for specific electrical
connection requirements.

WARNING!
Because of potential safety hazards under
certain conditions, we strongly recommend
against the use of an extension cord.
However, if you must use an extension cord,
it is absolutely necessary that it be a UL-listed,
14 gauge, 3-wire grounding type appliance
extension cord having a grounding type plug
and outlet and that the electrical rating of
the cord be 15 amperes (minimum) and
125 volts.
CAUTION:
DO NOT use an extension cord with any of the
230/208 volt models.
USE OF EXTENSION CORDS—115-Volt models only
Because of potential safety hazards under
certain conditions, we strongly recommend
against the use of an adapter plug.
However, if you must use an adapter, where
local codes permit, a temporary connection
may be made to a properly grounded
2-prong wall outlet by use of a UL-listed
adapter available at most local hardware
stores.
The larger slot in the adapter must be
aligned with the larger slot in the wall
outlet to provide proper polarity in the
connection of the power cord.
When disconnecting the power cord from
the adapter, always hold the adapter in place
with one hand while pulling the power cord
plug with the other hand. If this is not done,
the adapter ground terminal is very likely to
break with repeated use.
If the adapter ground terminal breaks,
DO NOT USE the air conditioner until a
proper ground has been established.
Attaching the adapter ground terminal to a wall
outlet cover screw does not ground the appliance
unless the cover screw is metal, not insulated, and
the wall outlet is grounded through the house wiring.
You should have the circuit checked by a qualified
electrician to make sure the outlet is properly
grounded.
USE OF ADAPTER PLUGS—115-Volt models only
READ AND FOLLOW THIS SAFETY INFORMATION CAREFULLY.

Safety Instructions Operating Instructions Care and Cleaning Installation Instructions Troubleshooting Tips Consumer Support
To maintain optimum performance, clean the filter at least every 30 days.
Air Filter
Turn the air conditioner off before cleaning.
The most important thing you can do to
maintain the air conditioner is to clean the filter
at least every 30 days. A clogged filter reduces
cooling, heating and air flow.
Keeping the air filter clean will:
Decrease cost of operation.
Save energy.
Prevent clogged heat exchanger coils.
Reduce the risk of premature component
failure.
To clean the air filters:
Vacuum off the heavy soil.
Run water through the filters.
Dry thoroughly before replacing.
To remove the air filter, on some models:
Carefully pull the tab forward, up and out.
To remove the air filter, on other models:
Pull it down.
To replace the air filter:
Replace the clean filter by pushing it back
into place.
CAUTION: Do not operate the air
conditioner without the filter in place. If a filter
becomes torn or damaged it should be replaced
immediately.
Operating without the filter in place or with a
damaged filter will allow dirt and dust to reach
the indoor coil and reduce the cooling, heating,
airflow and efficiency of the unit.
Replacement filters are available from your
salesperson, GE dealer, GE Service and Parts
Center or authorized Customer Care

Installation
Air Conditioner
Instructions
Some models require a 115/120-volt a.c.,
60 Hz grounded outlet protected with a
15-amp time delay fuse or circuit breaker.
The 3-prong grounding plug minimizes the possibility
of electric shock hazard. If the wall outlet you plan to
use is only a 2-prong outlet, it is your responsibility to
have it replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong
wall outlet.
Some models require 230/208-volt a.c.,
protected with a time delay fuse or circuit
breaker. These models should be installed on
their own single branch circuit for best
performance and to prevent overloading
house or apartment wiring circuits, which
could cause a possible fire hazard from
overheating wires.
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
CAUTION:
Do not, under any circumstances, cut or remove
the third (ground) prong from the power cord.
Do not change the plug on the power cord
of this air conditioner.
Aluminum house wiring may present special
problems—consult a qualified electrician.
IMPORTANT!
GE strongly recommends the removal of the old wall
case and the installation of a new GE Wall Case. If
you decide to keep the existing wall case, you may
need a kit to ensure proper performance. If you DO
NOT use a kit, you run the risk of poor performance
or product failure. This is not covered under the
terms of the GE warranty.
J-MODEL QUALIFYING QUESTIONS
J-model air conditioners may fit in existing wall
cases. However, they often need a kit to properly
adapt the case to the GE air conditioner. Answer
these questions and see the chart on the next page
for the proper kit.
What brand air conditioner will you be
replacing?
What are the dimensions of the wall case
currently in use?
What is the model number of the chassis
currently in use? What is the model (or Type)
number of the wall case currently in use?
Frequently, the J-model adapter kit will apply to
another brand model “series” or specific vintage.
In these cases, you need the chassis model
number and/or the wall case or “type” number
to confirm the use of the correct adapter kit.
What type of outdoor grille is used with the
current wall case?
There may be an architectural grille attached to
a wall case to enhance the exterior appearance
of the building. Custom grilles may be used with
J-model wall cases provided a J-model adapter
kit is also used to ensure proper airflow.
