Ne_er unplug your air conditioner by
pulling on tim power cord. Always glip
plug firefly and pull straight out fiom the
receptacle.
iiiiiiiiiiii_iii
Repair or replace immediately all elecuic
service cords that haxe become fiwed or
otherwise damaged. Do not use a cord
that shows cracks or abrasion damage
along its length or at either the plug or
connector end.
Turn the mode control OR=and unplug
your air conditioner before making any
repairs or cleaning.
NOTE:Westronglyrecommendthat anyservicing
beperformedbya qualifiedindividual.
For your safety...do not store or use
combustible materials, gasoline or oflmr
flammable vapors or liquids in the vicinity
of this or any other appliance.
All air conditioners contain refi-igerants,
which under federal law must be remoxed
prior to product disposal. If you are getting
rid of an old product with refcigerants,
check with the company handling disposal
about what to do.
HOWTOCONNECTELECTRICITY
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.
The power cord of this appliance is equipped
with a 3-prong (grounding) plug which
mates with a standard 3-prong (grounding)
wall outlet m minimize rite possibility of
electric shock hazard from dlis appliance.
Power cord may include a cmxent
intemq)ter 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 TESTbutton and then the RESErbutton.
If the rESTb, tto, does not trip or if the
RESt'button will not stay engaged,
discontinue use of the air conditioner
and contact a qualified service technician.
Haxe the wall outlet and circuit checked
by a qualified electrician to make sure the
outlet is properly grounded.
'_&'herea 9-prong wall outlet is encountered,
it is your personal responsibility and
obligation to haxe it replaced with a properly
grounded 3-piong wall outlet.
The air conditioner shou]d alwws be plug\g_d
into its own individual electrica] outlet which
has a x_ltag> rating flint matches file rating
plate.
This provides the best perfommnce and also
prevents oxerloading house wiring circuits
which could cause a fire hazard from
oxerheated x_,ires.
See the Installation Instructions, Electrical
Requirements section for specific electrical
connection requirements.

WARNING!
USEOFEXTENSIONCORDS--115-Voltmodelsonly
www.GEAppliances.com
Because of potential safety hazards under
certain conditions, we strongly recommend
against the use of an extension cord.
Howe_; ifvo/l Ill/lSt use all extension cord,
it is absolutely necessal T that it be a UL-listed,
14 gauge, 3-wire grounding type appliance
extension cord having a grounding type plug
and outlet and that file electrical radng of
the cord be 15 amperes (minimum) and
125 x_lts.
CAUtiON:
DONOT use an extension cord with any of the
230/208 volt models.
USEOFADAPTERPLUGS--115-Voltmodelsonly
Because of potential safety hazards under
certain conditions, we strongly recommend
against the use of an adapter plug.
Howex>i; if you must use an adaptei; where
local codes permit, a temporary connection
may be made m a properly grounded
9-prong wall outlet by use of a UiAismd
adaptor available at most local hardware
stores.
The larger slot in file adaptor must be
aligned with the larger slot in die wall
outlet m provide proper polarity in the
connec6on of the power cord.
When disconnecting die power cord fiom
the adapter; always hold the adaptor in place
with one hand while pulling the power cord
plug with the other hand. If this is not done,
the adapter ground te_ninal is x>tT likely to
break with repeated use.
