IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THE APPLIANCE
For your safety, the information in this manual must be followed to minimize the risk of 
WARNING fire, electric shock or personal injury.
Ŷ 8VH WKLV DSSOLDQFH RQO\ IRU LWV LQWHQGHG SXUSRVH DV described in this Owner’s Manual.
Ŷ This air conditioner must be properly installed in accordance with the Installation Instructions before it is used.
Ŷ Never unplug your air conditioner by pulling on the power cord. Always grip plug firmly and pull straight out from the receptacle.
Ŷ 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.
Ŷ Turn the unit OFF and unplug your air conditioner before cleaning.
Ŷ 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.
Ŷ If the receptacle does not match the plug, the receptacle must be changed out by a qualified electrician.

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, 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.

Using the Air Conditioner - Features
To Adjust Fan Speeds
Press the FAN SPEED button to select the FAN SPEED in four steps - AUTO, LOW, MED, or HIGH. Each time the button is pressed, the fan speed mode is shifted.
For some models, the fan speed can not be adjusted under HEAT mode. In DRY mode, the fan speed is controlled at low automatically.
In AUTO, the fan speed will automatically operate at the speed needed to provide optimum comfort. If the room needs faster cooling to meet the set temperature, the fan will automatically increase. If the room needs less cooling, the fan will automatically decrease.
SLEEP
SLEEP set the unit to gradually change setting over an 8 hour period to allow for increased energy savings during sleeping hours. The SLEEP mode is available only in COOL and FAN only settings.
Press the SLEEP mode pad and its light will illuminate. The FAN indicator will stay at the same setting but the air conditioner will automatically change the FAN speed to low in either the COOL or FAN only mode.
In FAN only mode, the fan will stay in the LOW speed setting for 8 hours. After 8 hours, the air conditioner will resume the settings that were in place before the SLEEP mode pad was pressed.
In COOL and HEAT modes, the fan will stay in LOW speed setting for 8 hours from the time the SLEEP mode pad was pressed. The air conditioner will raise the set point 2ºF(1ºC) in cooling (lower the set point in heating) in 30 minutes and 2ºF(1ºC) more in another 30 minutes where it will remain for another 7 hours. After this 8-hour period, the unit will resume the settings that were in place before the SLEEP mode pad was pressed.
While the unit is in SLEEP mode, pressing any pad will return it to the settings that were in place before the SLEEP mode was pressed.
Check Filter
Press the FILTER button to initiate this feature. This |
The LED (light) will illuminate after 250 hours of |

FILTER button and the light will go off. |
To Select the Operating Mode
To choose operating mode, press the MODE button. Each time you press the button, a mode is selected in a sequence that goes from HEAT (on some models),
COOL, FAN, ECO, and DRY only. The indicator light will be illuminated and remain on once the mode is selected.
Models AJHQ08AWH and AJHQ12DWH are Heatpumps and the heating function will automatically switch between electric heat mode and heatpump mode to maintain room set temperature and to reduce operating costs. At outdoor temperatures below 40ºF(4.4ºC),
the unit will operate in electric heat mode only. The AJHQ08AWH is not intended to be the sole source of heat.
To operate in FAN only Mode:

ŶDuring this function, the display will show the actual
room temperature, not the set temperature in the cooling or heating (on some models) mode.
ŶIn FAN only mode, the temperature is not adjustable.
To operate in ECO Mode:
ŶWith this feature, the unit will operate in COOL mode only. The fan will operate with the compressor to cool the space. The fan will continue to run for 3 minutes after the compressor stops and the room set temperature has been met. The fan then cycles on for 2 minutes at 10 minute intervals until the room temperature is above the set point, at which time the compressor turns on and cooling starts.
To operate in DRY Mode:
ŶIn this mode, the air conditioner will generally operate in the form of a dehumidifer. Since the conditioned space is a closed or sealed area, some degree of cooling
will occur. In DRY mode, the fan operates in LOW fan speed only.

Using the Air Conditioner - Features
Additional Features
The “Cool” circuit has an automatic 3 minute delayed start if the unit is turned off and on quickly. This prevents
overheating of the compressor and possible circuit breaker tripping. The fan will continue to run during this time.
There is a 2 second delay for the compressor to stop when selecting fan or heat. This is to cover the possibility of
having to roll through to select another mode.
The control will maintain the set temperature within 1°F between 62°F and 86°F in cool or heat mode (on some models).
After a power outage, the unit will remember last setting and return the unit to that setting when power is restore.
Air Direction
Adjustable louvers control air flow direction.
The louvers will allow you to direct the air flow up or down and left or right throughout the room as needed until the desired left/right direction is obtained. Pivot horizontal louvers until the desired up/down direction is obtained.
Ventilation
To open the ventilation port, remove the adjustable air discharge louvers by gently pulling forward the right end until it is released from the pivot point. Shift the louvers to the right to release the left end from its pivot point. To open the ventilation port, pull the lever forward. The lever will lock in place. To replace the air discharge louvers, reverse the above procedure

Remote Wall Thermostat (Heat/Cool models only)
All heat/cool models are capable of being controlled by a 24 VAC remote wall thermostat. The thermostat control connection board is located behind a metal cover on the right side of the metal chassis cover. To open the cover, remove the Phillips head screw and lift from the slots at the bottom. To properly connect the wiring from a remote wall thermostat, follow these steps:
1.Order the 8-pin connector from GE Appliances Service. Call 1-800-626-2002 and order WP26X24981. A connector is required for each unit being controlled by a wall thermostat
2.Install the remote thermostat according to the directions included with it.
