should be checked regularly. If the)' are clogged
with dirt or soot, they may be protessionally
steanl cleaned, a service a\:filable through yore"

SAFETY--READ CAREFULLY
_k CAUTION:
• Follow the National Electrical Code (NEC) or local

Installation Instructions
REPLACING AN EXISTING UNIT?
Check the "Essential
Elements" label for
importantinformation.
Use the correct wall case
This unit is designed to be installed in a GE plastic or
insulated metal wall case. This minimizes condensation
fl'(nn fimning on the room side of the case.
If the current wall case is not insulated, you can reduce
the possibili_' of condensation fimning by installing
insulation kit I_L_K901 i,, a\:filable where you purchased
the unit.
NOTE: There are several extra holes in the unit side
flanges t0r installation in wall cases other than GE.
To avoid damaging the flange insulation, the installer
should use an awl or other shaq) tool to puncture the
insulation in the appropriate holes beiore installing
the attachment screws.
Replacing a ducted unit
New ducted installation:
If this unit is to be installed in a new ducted application
using a duct adapter kit, the kit must be installed before
the unit is placed in the wall case. The installation
instructions are packed with the kit.
plate
Existing ducted installation:
Replacement of an existing ducted unit may require
different components. Request this intimnation ti'otu
your sales representative.
• Replacing 230/208 volt turiN:
See page 14.
• Replacing 265 volt turiN:
See pages 15 and 16.
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 D' and
efficiency will be reduced and the unit tuav tail to
operate properly or tifil prematurely. A deflector kit,
I_L_K40, tua)" be used with grilles that were not
designed t0r your new GE Zonelines. The IL_K40
contains air deflect(ns and gaskets that tuount to the
unit to direct the hot exhaust air away fl'otu the air
intake to allow the unit to fltuction properly. The
grille m tlSt have a 65% minituutu fl'ee area.
• Any vertical deflectors in the existing rear grille should
be retuoved to decrease condenser air recirculation
that can cause the trait to "short-cycle" and lead
to pi'eli/attli'e COlilponent tifihu'e.
Use the correct power cord
I,ocal codes tua)' require the use of arc fault or
leakage current detection devices on 230/208 volt
installations.

POWER CORD
CONNECTION
A power supply kit must be used to supply power to fl_e
Zoneline unit. The apl)ropfiate kit is determined b)' the
voltage, the means of electrical connection and the
amperage ol the branch drcuit.
Power supply kit
Connections of 208 oi 230 xolt ciicuits max be with a
power supply kit or a junction box kit.
All wiring, including installation of the receptacle,
must be in accordance with the NEC and local codes,
ordinances and regulations, i,ocal codes may require
the use of an arc tmllt or leakage current detection
device on the power cord. Be sure to select the
correct cord ti)r your installation.
Power cords may include an arc fault interruption or
a leakage current detection interruption device. A
test mad reset button is provided on the plug case or
the inline case. The device should be tested on a
periodic basis by first pressing the TEST button and
then the RESET button. If the TEST button does
not trip or if the RESET button will not stay engaged,
discontinue use of the Zonelhae and contact a
qualified service technician.

OPTIONAL--DRAIN KIT INSTALLATION
Dry Air 25 Series models are designed to improve dehumidification by 25%. Since more moisture will be removed from
the air, there is a greater possibility that water will drip from the wall case thml with a standard mlit. To prevent this water
from dripping onto external building walls, we recommend the use of RAD10 Drain Kit.
External Drain

in the RADIO kit.
