HOW TO CONNECT ELECTRICITY
Where a 2-prong wall outlet is encountered, it is
WARNING
cause injury or death. This appliance 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 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 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 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 air conditioner and contact a qualified service
technician.
Risk of electric shock. Can
your personal responsibility and obligation to have
it replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong wall
outlet.
WARNING
Risk of electric shock. Can cause injury or death.
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.
USE OF EXTENSION CORDS
WARNING

RISK OF FIRE. Could cause
USE OF ADAPTER PLUGS
WARNING
Risk of electric shock. Can cause injury or death.
We strongly recommend against the use of an
adapter plug.
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.
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.
READ AND FOLLOW THIS SAFETY INFORMATION CAREFULLY.
DO NOT use an extension cord with this Built-in Air
Conditioner.
DO NOT use surge protectors or multi-outlet adaptors
with this Built-in Air Conditioner.
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
is very likely to break with repeated use.
If the adapter ground terminal breaks, DO NOT USE
the air conditioner until a proper ground has been
established.
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.

To maintain optimum performance, clean the filter at least every 30 days.
The most important thing you can do to maintain the air
conditioner is to clean the filter at least every 30 days. A clogged
filter reduces cooling, heating and air flow.
Keeping the air filter clean will:
Decrease cost of operation.
Save energy.
Prevent clogged heat exchanger coils.
Reduce the risk of premature component failure.
To clean the air filters:
Vacuum off the heavy soil.
Run water through the filters.
To remove the air filter, on other models:
Pull it down.
To replace the air filter:
Replace the clean filter by pushing it back
into place.
Dry thoroughly before replacing.
To remove the air filter, on some models:
Carefully pull the tab forward, up and out.
NOTICE: Do not operate the air conditioner without
the filter in place. If a filter becomes torn or damaged it
should be replaced immediately.
Operating without the filter in place or with a damaged filter
will allow dirt and dust to reach the indoor coil and reduce the
cooling, heating, airflow and efficiency of the unit.
Replacement filters are available from your salesperson, GE
dealer, GE Service and Parts Center or authorized Customer
Care® servicers.

3. Reattach the cover by sliding it back into position.
Long Term Storage
When the room air conditioner is not in use it is recommended
that the unit be covered to eliminate drafts and limit energy
loss.
Insulated covers that mount to the front of the unit, that are
designed to eliminate drafts and energy loss are recommended.
Approximate size of indoor cover should be 26 in * 16 in. * 7 in..
Unplug the unit before adding the cover. Follow cover
manufacturer’s installation instruction to install cover.
NOTES:
Use 2 AAA (1.5 volt) batteries. Do not use rechargeable
batteries.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
WARNING
Risk of electric shock. Can cause injury or death.
This appliance must be properly grounded. Where
a 2-prong wall outlet is encountered, it is your
responsibility and obligation to have it replaced
with a properly grounded 3-prong outlet.
Some models require a 115/120-volt a.c.,
60-Hz grounded outlet protected with a
15-amp time delay fuse or circuit breaker.
The 3-prong grounding plug minimizes the possibility of
electric shock hazard. If the wall outlet you plan to use
is only a 2-prong outlet, it is your responsibility to have it
replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong wall outlet.
Do not, under any circumstances, cut or remove
the third (ground) prong from the power cord.
Do not change the plug on the power cord of this
air conditioner.
Aluminum house wiring may present special
SUREOHPV³FRQVXOWDTXDOLILHGHOHFWULFLDQ
Some models require 230/208-volt a.c., protected
with a time delay fuse or circuit breaker. These
models should be installed on their own single
branch circuit for best performance and to prevent
overloading house or apartment wiring circuits,
which could cause a possible fire hazard from
overheating wires.
