Care and Cleaning
USER MMNTENANCE
INSTRUCTIONS
Turn air conditioner off and
remove plug from wall outlet
before cleaning.
Grille & Cabinet
Wive front grille with a clean cloth
lig~tly dam~ened with mild liquid
dishwashing detergent. Wash cabinet
with mild
soav or detergent and
lukewarm wa~er.
-
Condenser Coils
These coils on the weather side
of the unit should be checked
periodically and cleaned if clogged
with dirt or soot from the atmosphere.
If extremely soiled, they may need
to be steam cleaned, a service
available through your GE service
outlet.
front Grille Removal
The front grille can be removed to
make the air
filter accessible, allow
more thorough cleaning or make the
model and serial numbers easier to
read.
To remove the grille, grasp both
sides and pull forward and up to
free tabs on grille from clamps on
frame and bottom edge of grille
from grooved
suppo~ on frame.
To
replace the grille, set bottom
edge of grille on grooved supports
on frame and push upper part of
grille back until tabs on grille snap
into clamps on frame.
Air Hltir
The air filter behind the front grille
should be washed at least every 30
days or as often as it needs cleaning.
To remove the filter, first remove
the front grille, then carefully
unhook the filter from the frame.
Vacuum the filter on the dusty side
to remove
light dust. Wash the filter.
cleaner side up, under gently flowing
water to wash out accumulated dust
and lint. If the filter is very dirty,
use a mild household detergent in
the wash water. Let the filter dry
thoroughly before replacing it.
After cleaning the filter, put it
back into place and replace the
front grille.

Ene~y-savi~ tips
● Keep the air filter clean. (See
instructions on page 4.)
● For most efficient cooling, keep
the Ventilation Control in the
CLOSED position except when
you want to exhaust air, smoke or
odors from the room.
. Don’t let the room get too
hot. Whenever possible, turn the
unit on before the room heats up.
When heat is “stored up” in walls,
furniture, rugs and draperies, your
air conditioner takes longer to
produce the desired comfort
condition.
● Keep windows and doors
closed. Cool, dry air escapes
when they’re open.
● Keep furnace floor registers and
cold air returns closed. Cold air
can easily escape through them.
● Don’t let drapes or furniture block
the front of the unit and restrict air
flow when it is operating.
. It’s best to operate your air
conditioner at high speed during
extremely hot weather.
● Keep the outdoor condenser coil
clean. (See page 4.)
● Turn the air conditioner off
before vacations or extended
absences from home.

● Air conditioner must be installed level or tilted
slightly to the outside for proper water disposal.
● This is normal for a short period in areas with
litie humidity; normal for a longer period in
very humid areas. Moisture removed from
indoor air drains to rear of cabinet, where it is
picked up by a fan and thrown against the

to support the weight of the air
conditioner. Add
metal flashing
over bottom of frame opening and
1“
UP on sides to reduce the
possibility of moisture entering the
area between the inner and outer
wall. The flashing lip should be 1“
wide and bent down

provided in cabinet for window
installation hardware not used
in this installation.

1. Place cabinet in wall opening.
2. Secure cabinet bottom rail to
wooden frame with two 1“ long
#10 wood screws.
3. Secure cabinet sides to wooden
frame with six 1“ long #10 wood
screws and cabinet top with four 1“
long #10 wood screws.
Drill holes in cabinet sides and top,
if necessary for proper installation.
If frame is oversize, use shims to
prevent cabinet distortion.

4. Caulk all four sides on the
outdoor side of cabinet to prevent
moisture from getting through to
the interior wall. Use of flashing
(a piece of aluminum or galvanized
