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.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
nUse this appliance only for its intended purpose as described in this Owner’s Manual.
nThis air conditioner must be properly installed in accordance with the Installation Instructions before it is used.
nNever unplug your air conditioner by pulling on the power cord. Always grip plug firmly and pull straight out from the receptacle.
nReplace 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.
nTurn the unit OFF and unplug your air conditioner before cleaning.
nGE does not support any servicing of the air conditioner. We strongly recommend that you do not attempt to service the air conditioner yourself.
nFor 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.
nAll 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.
nIf the receptacle does not match the plug, the receptacle must be changed out by a qualified electrician.
nThese R410A air conditioning systems require contractors and technicians to use tools, equipment and safety standards approved for use with this refrigerant.
DO NOT use equipment certified for R22 refrigerant only.
HOW TO CONNECT ELECTRICITY
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, 2 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.
GEAppliances.com
WARNING!
USE OF EXTENSION CORDS—115-Volt models only
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.
READ AND FOLLOW THIS SAFETY INFORMATION CAREFULLY.

Do Not Operate in Freezing Outdoor
Conditions
Remote Control
nTo ensure proper operation, aim the remote control at the signal receiver on the air conditioner.
nThe remote control signal has a range of up to 20 feet.
Cool Mode
Use the Cool mode at Low, Med, High or Auto Fan Speed for cooling. Use the Temperature Increase▲ / Decrease ▼pads to set the desired temperature between 64°F and 86°F in 1°F increments.
An electronic thermostat is used to maintain the room temperature. The compressor will cycle on
and off to keep the room at the set level of comfort. Set the thermostat at a lower number and the indoor air will become cooler. Set the thermostat at a higher number and the indoor air will become warmer.
NOTE: If the air conditioner is off and is then turned on while set to a Cool setting or if turned from a fan setting to a Cool setting, it may take approximately 3 minutes for the compressor to start and cooling to begin.
Energy Saver Mode
Controls the fan.
ON—The fan will cycle on and off with the compressor. This results in wider variations of room temperature and humidity. Normally used when the room is unoccupied. NOTE: The fan may continue to run for a short time after the compressor cycles off.
Fan Only Mode
Use the Fan Only Mode at Low, Med or High fan speed to provide air circulation and filtering without cooling. Since fan-only settings do not provide cooling, a Set temperature cannot be entered. The room temperature will appear
in the display.
Auto Fan Speed
Set to Auto fan speed for the fan speed to automatically set to the speed needed to provide optimum comfort settings with the set temperature.
If the room needs more cooling, the fan speed will automatically increase. If the room needs less cooling, the fan speed will automatically decrease.
Power Outage Recovery Feature
In the case of a power outage or interruption, the unit will automatically restart in the settings last used after the power is restored. If the Delay 1–24hr

Installation Instructions
1WINDOW REQUIREMENTS
•These instructions are for a standard double-hung window. You will need to modify them for other types of windows.
•The air conditioner can be installed without the accordion panels if needed to fit in a narrow window. See the window opening dimensions.
•All supporting parts must be secured to firm wood, masonry or metal.
•The electrical outlet must be within reach of the power cord.
•Follow the dimensions in the table and illustration for your model.

2 STORM WINDOW REQUIREMENTS
A storm window frame will not allow the air conditioner to tilt toward the outside, and will keep it from draining properly.
To adjust for this, attach a piece of wood to the sill.
WOOD PIECES WIDTH: 2″
LENGTH: Long enough to fit inside the window frame.
THICKNESS: To determine the thickness, place a piece of wood on the sill to make it 1/2″ higher than the top of the storm window frame or the vinyl frame.
Attach securely with nails or screws provided by the installer.
