IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.

WARNING! Risk of electric shock. Can

cause injury or death. 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.

 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.

 Turn 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

WARNING! Risk of electric shock.

Can cause injury or death. This appliance

must be properly grounded. 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.

Power cord may include 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.

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.

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.

WARNING! Risk of electric shock. Can

cause injury or death.

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.

RISK OF FIRE. Could cause serious injury or

death.

 DO NOT use an extension cord with this

Built-in Air Conditioner.

 DO NOT use surge protectors or multi-outlet

adaptors with this Built-in Air Conditioner.

USE OF EXTENSION CORDS

WARNING! Risk of electric shock. Can

cause injury or death.

 We strongly recommend against the use of

an adapter plug.

 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.

Care and cleaning of the air conditioner.

The front grille can be removed for more thorough

cleaning and to locate the model and serial numbers

on the front of the base pan.

To remove:

1. Pull the filter out.

2. Remove the two grille screws.

3. Pull the grille out from the bottom and lift up

from the tabs on the top of the case.

To replace:

Hook the tabs on the front grille even with the tabs on

the case and snap into place.

Replace the screws and filter.

Outdoor Coils

The coils on the outdoor side of the air conditioner

should be checked regularly.

If they are clogged with dirt or soot they may be

professionally steam cleaned, a service available

through your GE service outlet.

from the wall outlet before cleaning.

To clean, use water and a mild detergent.

Do not use bleach or abrasives.

to the arrow direction.

2

Insert new batteries making sure that the

(+) and (–) of battery are installed correctly.

3

Reattach the cover by sliding it back

into position.

NOTES:

Use 2 AAA (1.5 volt) batteries. Do not use

rechargeable batteries.

Remove the batteries from the remote control

if the system is not going to be used for a long time.

Do not mix old and new batteries. Do not mix

reduces cooling, heating

and airflow.

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.

NOTICE: 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,

WARNING! Risk of electric shock. Can

cause injury or death. This appliance must be

properly grounded. Where a 2-prong wall outlet

is encountered, it is your responsibility and

obligation to have it replaced with a properly

grounded 3-prong outlet.

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.

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.

Before you call for service…

Troubleshooting Tips: Save time and money! Review the chart below first and you may not need to call for service.

Normal Operating Sounds



You may hear a pinging noise caused by

water being picked up and thrown against the

condenser on rainy days or when the humidity

is high. This design feature helps remove

moisture and improve efficiency.



You may hear the thermostat click when the

compressor cycles on and off.



Water will collect in the base pan during high

humidity or on rainy days. The water may

overflow and drip from the outdoor side of

the unit.



The fan may run even when the compressor

does not.
