Care and cleaning.

GEAppliances.com

Turn off the Zoneline and disconnect the power supply before cleaning.

Indoor/Outdoor Coils

The exhaust coils on the Zoneline should be checked regularly. If they are clogged with dirt or soot, they may be professionally steam cleaned by your GE service center. You will need to remove the unit from the case to inspect the coils because the dirt build-up occurs on the exhaust side.

Outdoor coils

Have the coils cleaned regularly.

Safety Instructions

Operating Instructions

Drain

Clean the drain system regularly to prevent clogging.

Base Pan

In some installations, dirt or other debris may

be blown into the unit from the outside and settle in the base pan (the bottom of the unit).

In some areas of the United States, a “gel-like” substance may be present in the base pan.

Check it periodically and clean, if necessary.

Care and Cleaning

Air Filters

To maintain optimum performance, change the filter at least every 30 days.

The most important thing you can do to maintain the Zoneline is to change the filter at least every 30 days. Dirty filters reduce cooling, heating and air flow.

Changing the filter will: Decrease cost of operation, save energy, prevent clogged heat exchanger coils and reduce the risk of premature component failure.

NOTICE: Do not operate

the Zoneline 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 should be purchased from your local retailer where air conditioner and furnace accessories are sold.

Filter size required is 20” x 20” x 1".
