About YourHeat Pump
Heat I)umps can save money by removing heat
fl'om tile outside air----even when tile outside
temi)erature is below fl'eezing-- and releasing
that heat indom_.
To get tile best i)e_tommnce fl'om your heat
i)ump, don't change tile room them/ostat ve_ T
often. Raising the heat setting 2-3 degrees will
cause the Zoneline to use its electric heating
elements in order to reach tile new temperatm'e
setting quickly:
There is a three minute minimum compressor
run time at any setting to prevent shmt cycling.
Tile indoor tim motor starts befln'e tile

To clean, use water and a mild detergent.
Do not use bleach or abrasives. Some commercial
cleane_ may damage the plastic parts.

The coils on the outdoor side of the Zoneline
should be checked regularly. If they are clogged
with dirt or soot, they may be protessionally

REPLACING AN EXISTING UNIT?
Use the correct wall case
Checkthe "Essential
Elements"labelfor
importantinformation.
This unit is designed to be installed in a GE plastic or
insulated metal wall case. This minimizes condensation
from fimning on the room side of the case.
If the current wall case is not insulated, you can reduce
the possibili b' of condensation fimning 1)yinst;flling
insulation kit ILM(901 I,, a\:filable where you purchased
the unit.
Use the correct outdoor grille
You should use the outdoor grilles shown on the
"Essential Elements" label on the top of the unit.
• If an existing grille is not replaced, capaci_' and
efficiency will be reduced and the unit may tail to
operam propedy or fifil prematurely: A deflector kit,
I_K40, may be used with grilles that were not designed
fin" w>ur new GE Zonelines. The ]_M(40 contains air
cleflectots and gaskets that mount to the trait m direct
the hot exhaust air away fl'om the air intake to allow
the unit to flmction properl> The grille inust have
a 65% minimum fl'ee area.
• Any vertical deflectors in the existing rear grille should
be reilloved to decrease condenser air recirctllation
which can cause the trait to "short-cycle" and lead
