WARNING!
For your safety, the information in this manual must be followed tominimize the risk of fire, electric shock
or personal injury.
SAFETYPRECAUTIONS
iiiiiiiiiiiii!
Use this appliance only for its intended
purpose as described in this Owner's
Manual.
This air conditioner must be properly
installed in accordance xdth the Installation
Instructions before it is used.
Never unplug your air conditioner by pulling
on the power cord. Alwaysgrip plug firmly
and pull straight out flom the receptacle.
Replace immediately all electric serx,ice
cords that have become flayed 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.
Turn the unit OFFmid unplug your air
conditioner before cleaning.
GE does not support any ser\,icing of the air
conditioner We strongly recommend that
you do not attempt to serx,ice the air
conditioner yourself,
iiiiiiiiiiiii!
For your safety...do not store or use
combustible mamrials, gasoline or other
flammable vapors or liquids in the x,icinity
of this or any other appliance.
All air conditioners contain refligerants,
which under federal law must be removed
prior m product disposal. If you are getting
rid of an old product with refrigerants, 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 to minimize the possibility of electric
shock hazard from this appliance.
Power cord includes a current intermpmr
dex,ice. A test and reset button is prox,ided on
the plug case. The dex,ice should be tested on a
periodic basis by first pressing the rESrbutton
and then the RESErbuuon._f the rESrbutto.
does not trip or if the RESErbutton will not
stay engaged, discontinue use of the air
conditioner and contact a qualified
ser\,ice technician.
Have the wall outlet and circuit checked by
a qualified electrician to make sure the outlet
is properly _ounded.
Where a 2-prong wall outlet is encounmred,
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 indix,idual electrical outlet which
has a voltage rating that matches the rating
plate.
This prox,ides the best performance and also
prevents overloading house xdring circuits
which could cause a fire hazard from
overheated xdres.
See the Installation Instructions, Electrical
Requirements section for specific electrical
connection requirements.

WARNING!
USEOFEXTENSIONCORDS--115-Volt modelsonly
Because of potential safety hazards under certain
conditions, we strongly recommend against the
use of an extension cord.
However, if you must use an extension cord,
it is absolutely necessa U that it be a UL-listed,
14 gauge, 3_wiregrounding type appliance
exmnsion cord ha\,ing a grounding type plug
and outlet and that the electrical rating of the
cord be 15 amperes (minimum) and 125 volts.
ge.com
USEOFADAPTERPLUGS--115-Volt modelson/)/
Because of potential safety hazards under certain
conditions, we strongly recommend against the
use of an adapter plug.
However, if you must use an adapte_, where
local codes permit, a temporaryconnection may
be made m a properly grounded 2-prong wall
outlet by use of a Ui,-listed adaptor available
at most local hardware stores.
The larger slot in the adapter must be
aligned with the larger slot in the wall outlet
to prox,ide proper polarity in the connection
of the power cord.
When disconnecting the power cord fiom the
adapte_, 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 veU likely m break
with repeated use.
If the adapter ground terminal breaks, DONOT
USE the air conditioner until a proper ground
has been established.

_ ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
(_ 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.
©
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.
- CAUTION:
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
problemsmconsult a qualified electrician.

Pida a un tOcnico que inspeccione el
tomacorriente y el circuito para cerciorarse
de que el tomacorriente est_ conectado a
tierra de la manera apropiada.
Donde exista un tomacorriente de dos
tomas, es su responsabilidad y obligaci6n
personal hacer que dicho tomacorriente
sea reemplazado por uno de tres tomas
con conexi6n a tierra.
E1acondicionador de aire deberfa siempre
estar conectado a un tomacorriente indMdual
con su circuito de volta,je correspondiente.
Esm proporciona el mayor rendimiento y
ademas ex,itaque los circuitos del resto de
la casa se sobrecarg_en, lo cual podrfa causar
incendios por el sobrecalentamiento del

Debido al potencial de riesgos de seguridad bajo
ciertas condiciones, en_rgicamente recomendamos
contra el uso de cables de extensi6n.
Sin embargo, si usted seve en la necesidad
de usar un cable elOctfico de exmnsi6n, es
absolutamenm necesano que el mismo estO
listado ba,jo UI,, sea calibre 14, del tipo de

USODEENCHUFESADAPTADORES--Modelosde115volfiossolamente
Debido al potencial de riesgos de seguridad bajo
ciertas condiciones, en#rgicamente recomendamos
contra el uso de enchufes adaptadores.
Sin embargo, si usted seve en la necesidad de
usar un adaptado_, donde los c6digos legales
locales lo permitan, puede hacer una conexi_Jn
temporala un inmrmpmr de 2 tom,is siempre
que se use un mmacorriente listado UL
disponible en la mayoria de las *erreterias.
La ranura mayor en el adaptador debe estar
alineada con la pda mayor en la pared para
proporcionar una polaridad apropiada en la
conexi6n del cable el_ctrico.
Cuando se disponga a desconectar el cable
el_ctfico del adaptado_, siempre sosmnga el
adaptador en su lugar con una mano mientras
tira del cable el_ctrico con la otra mano. Si no
hace esm, la terminal de tierra del adaptador
podr/a romperse despu& de que este proceso
se repita varias veces.
Si se rompe el terminal de conexidn a derra
del adaptadox, NO USEel acondicionador de
aire hasta que la conexi6n a tierra se haya
restablecido.
