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.
■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.
■ If the receptacle does not match the plug,
the receptacle must be changed out by a
qualified electrician.
■Turn the unit
OFF and unplug your air
conditioner before cleaning.
■ GE does not support any servicing of the air
conditioner. We strongly recommend that
you do not attempt to service the air
conditioner yourself.
■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.
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.
See the Installation Instructions,
Electrical
Requirements
section for specific electrical
connection requirements.

Consumer SupportTroubleshooting TipsOperating InstructionsSafety Instructions Installation Instructions
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
READ AND FOLLOW THIS SAFETY INFORMATION CAREFULLY.

checked and cleaned at least every 30 days or
more often if necessary.
Clean the filter with warm, soapy water. Rinse and
let the filter dry before replacing it.

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.

debe siempre conectarse a tierra.
NO use un enchufe adaptador con este
electrodoméstico.
El cable eléctrico de este electrodoméstico está
equipado con un enchufe de tres púas (tierra)
que combina con un tomacorriente estándar
de tres tomas de pared para minimizar la
posibilidad de una descarga eléctrica.
El cable de alimentación incluye un
dispositivo para interrupción de corriente.
Se incluye un botón de prueba y de reinicio
en el dispositivo. El dispositivo debe ponerse
a prueba periódicamente: primero se presiona
el botón de
TEST (prueba) y luego RESET
(reinicio) mientras se encuentra enchufado al
tomacorriente. Si el botón
TEST no se dispara
o si el botón
RESET no queda enganchado,
deje de utilizar el acondicionador de aire y
comuníquese con un técnico calificado.
Pida a un técnico que inspeccione
el tomacorriente y el circuito para cerciorarse
de que el tomacorriente está conectado a tierra
de la manera apropiada.
Donde exista un tomacorriente de dos
tomas, es su responsabilidad y obligación
personal hacer que dicho tomacorriente
sea reemplazado por uno de tres tomas
con conexión a tierra.
El acondicionador de aire debería siempre
estar conectado a un tomacorriente individual
con su circuito de voltaje correspondiente.
Esto proporciona el mayor rendimiento y
además evita que los circuitos del resto de
la casa se sobrecarguen, lo cual podría causar
incendios por el sobrecalentamiento del
cableado.

Instrucciones para Acondicionador de aire
la instalación
Algunos modelos requieren tomacorrientes
de 115/120 voltios de corriente alterna y
60 Hz conectados a tierra, protegidos con
un fusible de dilatación de tiempo de
15 amperios o un cortacircuitos.
El enchufe de tres púas con conexión a tierra

tomas con conexión a tierra.
REQUISITOS ELECTRICOS
Algunos modelos requieren 230/208 voltios,
de corriente alterna, protegidos por un
fusible de dilatación de tiempo o un
cortacircuitos. Estos modelos deberían
instalarse en un ramal exclusivo del circuito

REQUISITOS DE UNA VENTANA
DE TORMENTAS
Un marco de ventana de tormentas no
permitirá que el acondicionador de aire se
incline hacia el exterior y evitará que drene
apropiadamente. Para solucionar este problema,
adhiera un pedazo de madera a la umbral.
PEDAZOS DE MADERA –
ANCHO: 2″
LONGITUD: Lo suficientemente largo
como para ajustar en el interior del marco
de la ventana.
GRUESO: Para determinar el grueso, coloque
un pedazo de madera en la umbral para
hacerla 1/2″más alta que la parte superior
del marco de la ventana de tormentas o del
marco vinilo.
Péguelo firmemente con clavos o con
tornillos proporcionados por el instalador.
