HOW TO CONNECT ELECTRICITY
AWARNING! niskofelectricshock.
Can cause injury or death. Thisappliance
must be properly grounded. Do not, under any
circumstances, cut or remove the third (ground)
prong from the power cord. For personal safety,
this appliance must beproperly 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 to minimize the
possibility of electric shock hazard from
this appliance.
Have the wall outlet and circuit checked
by a qualified electrician to make sure
the outlet is properly grounded.
Power cord may include 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 TESTbutton and then
the RESETbutton. If the TEST button does
not trip or if the RESETbutton will not
stay engaged, discontinue use of the air
conditioner and contact a qualified service
technician.
,t_WARNING! niskofelectricshock.
Can cause injury or death.
iiiiiiiiiiii_i;i
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.
Turn OFFand unplug your air conditioner
before making any repairs or cleaning.
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.
All 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.
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.
2 SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
A WARNING!
USE OF EXTENSION CORDS
RISK OF FIRE. Could cause serious injury or
death.
DO NOT use an extension cord with this
Built-in Air Conditioner.

outlet adaptors with this Built-in Air
Conditioner.
USEOFADAPTER PLUGS
A WARNING! niskorelectricshock.
Can cause injury or death.
We strongly recommend against the use
of an adapter plug.
iiiiiiiiiiii_i;i
If you must use an adapter, where local
codes permit, a temporary connection
may be made to a properly grounded
2-prong wall outlet by use of a UL-listed
adapter available at most local hardware
stores.
iiiiiiiiiiii_i;i
The larger slot in the adapter must be
aligned with the larger slot in the wall
outlet to provide proper polarity in the
connection of the power cord.
GEAppliances.com
iiiiiiiiiiii_i;i
When disconnecting the power cord from
the adapter, always hold the adapter in
place with one hand while pulling the
power cord plug with the other hand.
If this is not done, the adapter ground
terminal isvery likely to break with
repeated use.
iiiiiiiiiiii_i;i
If the adapter ground terminal breaks,
DO NOT USE the air conditioner until a
proper ground has been established.
iiiiiiiiiiii_i;i
Attaching the adapter ground terminal
to a wall outlet cover screw does not
ground the appliance unless the cover
screw is metal, not insulated, and the
wall outlet is grounded through the
house wiring. You should have the circuit
checked by a qualified electrician to make
sure the outlet is properly grounded.
READ AND FOLLOW THIS SAFETYINFORMATION CAREFULLY.
