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.

n Use this appliance only for its intended

purpose as described in this Owner’s

Manual.

n This air conditioner must be properly

installed in accordance with the Installation

Instructions before it is used.

n Never unplug your air conditioner by pulling

on the power cord. Always grip plug firmly

and pull straight out from the receptacle.

n Replace immediately all electric service

cords that have become frayed or otherwise

damaged. A damaged power supply cord

must be replaced with a new power supply

cord obtained from the manufacturer and

not repaired. Do not use a cord that shows

cracks or abrasion damage along its length

or at either the plug or connector end.

n Turn the unit OFF and unplug your air

conditioner before cleaning.

n GE does not support any servicing of the

air conditioner. We strongly recommend

that you do not attempt to service the air

conditioner yourself.

n 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.

n 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.

n If the receptacle does not match the plug,

the receptacle must be changed out by a

qualified electrician.

n These R410A air conditioning systems

require contractors and technicians to

use tools, equipment and safety standards

approved for use with this refrigerant.

DO NOT use equipment certified for

R22 refrigerant only.

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.

DO NOT use an adapter plug with this appliance.

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.

Power cord includes a current interrupter device.

A test and reset button is provided on the plug

case. The device should be tested on a periodic

basis by first pressing the TEST button and

then the RESET button while plugged into the

outlet. If the TEST button does not trip or if the

RESET button will not stay engaged, discontinue

use of the air conditioner and contact a qualified

service technician.

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.

air will become cooler. Set the thermostat at a higher

number and the indoor air will become warmer.

NOTE: If the air conditioner is off and is then turned on

while set to a Cool setting or if turned from a fan

setting to a Cool setting, it may take approximately

3 minutes for the compressor to start and cooling to

begin.

Cooling Descriptions

For Normal Cooling—Select the Cool mode and

High or Med fan with a middle set temperature.

For Maximum Cooling—Select the Cool mode

and High fan with a lower set temperature.

For Quieter and Nighttime Cooling—Select the

Cool mode and Low fan with a middle set

temperature.

Fan Only Mode

Use the Fan Only Mode at Low, Med or High fan

speed to provide air circulation and filtering without

cooling. Since fan-only settings do not provide

cooling, a Set temperature cannot be entered. The

room temperature will appear in the display.

NOTE: Auto Fan Speed cannot be used when in the

Fan Only Mode.

Energy Saver Mode

In the case of a power outage or interruption, the

unit will automatically restart in the settings last

used after the power is restored. If the Delay 1–24hr

feature was set, it will resume countdown. You may

need to set a new time if desired.

Power Outage Recovery Feature

Do Not Operate in Freezing Outdoor Conditions

This cool-only air conditioner was not designed for

freezing outdoor conditions. It must not be used in

freezing outdoor conditions.

n To ensure proper operation, aim the remote

control at the signal receiver on the air

conditioner.

n Make sure nothing is between the air conditioner

and the remote control that could block the

signal.

n The remote control signal has a range of

up to 20 feet.

n Make sure batteries are fresh and installed

correctly as indicated on the remote control.

n Remote contains a magnet allowing it to attach

to metal surfaces.

Remote Control

This mode optimizes the cooling power of your air

conditioner, thereby saving you energy. Once the

set point temperature has been reached, the fan

will cycle off to save energy. The fan will cycle back

on periodically to insure all cooling capacity in the

system is used. This mode is the default mode for the

unit. Each time the unit is powered off, it will restart

in Energy Saver mode ON. This includes Delay timer

mode. The first time the unit is turned on, the settings

will be 70° and Low fan. You can adjust the fan

speed and temperature to your personal comfort.

Energy Saver ON—Helps minimize electricity use.

It is normal for the fan to cycle off and then back

on in this mode. This on/off cycle can repeat

multiple times. Because the fan will cycle off, you

may notice a variation in room temperature and

humidity.

Energy Saver OFF—When this mode is not engaged,

the fan will run continuously, and in Cool mode the

compressor will cycle on and off to maintain room

temperature.

Installation

Air Conditioner

Instructions

Some models require a 115/120-volt AC,

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 AC,

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.

IMPORTANTES CONSIGNES DE SÉCURITÉ.

VEUILLEZ LIRE TOUTES LES CONSIGNES AVANT UTILISATION.

AVERTISSEMENT!

Pour votre sécurité, les informations contenues dans ce manuel doivent être suivies afin de minimiser

les risques d’incendie, de chocs électriques ou de blessures corporelles.

n N’utilisez cet appareil qu’aux fins prévues

décrites dans le manuel d’utilisation.

n Ce climatiseur doit être correctement

installé conformément aux Instructions

d’Installation avant toute utilisation.

n Ne débranchez jamais votre climatiseur en

tirant sur le cordon d’alimentation. Prenez

toujours fermement la fiche en main et tirez

pour la sortir de la prise.

n Remplacez immédiatement tout cordon

électrique usé ou endommagé. Un

cordon d’alimentation endommagé doit

être remplacé par un nouveau cordon

d’alimentation obtenu du fabricant. Ne

réparez pas le cordon endommagé. N’utilisez

pas un cordon fissuré ou présentant des

dommages dus aux frottements soit sur

sa longueur ou aux extrémités du côté

de la fiche ou du raccord.

n Eteignez votre climatiseur et débranchez-le

avant de le nettoyer.

n GE n’offre pas de service d’entretien pour les

climatiseurs. Nous vous recommandons de

ne pas essayer d’effectuer l’entretien

de votre climatiseur vous-même.

n Pour votre sécurité, ne stockez pas et

n’utilisez pas de matériaux combustibles,

d’essence ou d’autres vapeurs et liquides

inflammables dans les parages de cet

appareil ou de tout autre appareil.

n Tous les climatiseurs contiennent des

fluides frigorigènes qui, conformément, à la

législation fédérale doivent être retirés avant

la mise au rebut de l’appareil. Si vous mettez

au rebus un ancien appareil contenant des

fluides frigorigènes, vérifiez la procédure à

suivre auprès de la compagnie responsable

de l’élimination.

n Si la prise de courant est d’un format

différent de la fiche, cette prise doit être

changée par un électricien qualifié.

n Ces systèmes de climatisation R410A

nécessitent que les entrepreneurs et

techniciens adoptent des outils, du matériel

et des normes de sécurité approuvés pour

utilisation avec ce réfrigérant. N’utilisez pas

de matériel certifié pour le réfrigérant R22

uniquement.

CONSIGNES DE SÉCURITÉ

Ne coupez pas ou n’enlevez pas, sous aucun

prétexte, la troisième broche de mise à la terre

du cordon d’alimentation. Pour des raisons de

sécurité, cet appareil doit être correctement mis

à la terre.

N’utilisez PAS d’adaptateur avec cet appareil.

Le cordon d’alimentation de cet appareil est

équipé d’une fiche à trois broches (pour une

mise à la terre) qui s’adapte à la prise de courant

standard à 3 broches (pour une mise à la terre)

pour minimiser les risques de chocs électriques

par cet appareil.

Le cordon d’alimentation est équipé d’un

dispositif d’interruption du courant. Un bouton

d’essai et de réenclenchement est fourni

sur le boîtier de la prise. Vous devez tester le

mécanisme régulièrement en appuyant d’abord

sur le bouton TEST (essai) puis sur le bouton

RESET (réenclenchement) lorsque l’appareil est

branché. Si le bouton TEST (essai) ne bascule

pas ou si le bouton RESET (réenclenchement)

ne reste pas enclenché, cessez d’utiliser votre

climatiseur et appelez un technicien de service

qualifié.

Faites vérifier la prise murale et le circuit

électrique par un électricien qualifié pour

s’assurer que le système est correctement

mis à la terre.

Dans le cas d’une prise biphasée,

l’installateur a la responsabilité et l’obligation

de la remplacer par une prise triphasée

correctement mise à la terre.

Le climatiseur doit toujours être branché

à sa propre prise électrique d’une tension

nominale correspondant à celle indiquée

sur sa plaque signalétique.

Ceci permet d’obtenir un meilleur rendement

du climatiseur et évite de surcharger les circuits

électriques du domicile qui risque d’occasionner

un incendie en surchauffant.

Consultez les Consignes d’Installations, dans

la section Exigences Electriques pour les

exigences de branchements électriques

particuliers.
