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 OFF and unplug your air conditioner before cleaning.

„GE does not support any servicing of the air conditioner. We strongly recommend that you do not attempt to service the air conditioner yourself.

„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.

„If the receptacle does not match the plug, the receptacle must be changed out by a qualified electrician.

„These R410A air conditioning systems require contractors and technicians to use tools, equipment and safety standards approved for use with this refrigerant.

HOW TO CONNECT ELECTRICITY

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.

DO NOT use an adapter plug with this appliance.

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 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 while plugged into the

 

outlet. 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

2

service technician.

 

Have the wall outlet and circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make sure the outlet is properly grounded.

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.
