Controls–dip switches. GEAppliances.com
The dip switch controls are located behind
the front case panel, through an opening
on the front of the unit.
To access the dip switches, remove the front
case panel by removing the filter, taking out
the four front screws, the upper two screws from
the top of the panel and the shipping screws on
each side, if present. (Discard the four side shipping
screws, if present).
NOTE: The owner is responsible for setting
the appropriate dip switches and connecting
terminals.

Controls–dip switches.
Freeze Sentinel (Requires room air sensor kit–RAVRMS)
When this switch is enabled (UP), it turns OFF
the freeze sentinel protection feature. With the
switch disabled (DOWN), the freeze sentinel is
activated which automatically provides heat
without user interface. This helps to prevent
plumbing damage by turning the heater
and fans ON at 41° F and OFF at 46° F.
Constant ON Fan
When this switch is enabled (UP), it allows the fan
to run continuously.
Occupancy Sensor (Field Supplied)
When this switch is enabled (UP), it allows the unit
to utilize an infrared motion sensor and a door
switch for occupancy detection. This feature
combined with field devices automatically cycles
the unit between normal operation and a preset
energy management operation.
FREEZE S (Freeze Sentinel)
CONST FAN (Constant
ON Fan)
OCCUPIED
(Occupancy Sensor)
Duct
The duct select function allows the indoor
fan to be operated at two variable fan speeds.
When this switch is enabled (UP), the unit
automatically selects either high or middle fan
speed (for longer ductwork applications). When
set in the down position, the unit is automatically
operated in either the middle or low fan speed
(for shorter ductwork applications).

Temperature Limiting (Requires room air sensor kit–RAVRMS)
Temperature limiting can reduce energy costs
by limiting the lowest temperature that can be
set for cooling and the highest temperature that
can be set for heating. Temperature limiting is
controlled by switches 1–6 on the top block
of auxiliary controls. The first three switches are
used to select the cooling limits. The next three
switches are used to control the heating limits.
