Tips Care and Cleaning Operating Instructions

■Use this appliance only for its intended purpose as described in this Owner’s Manual.

■This dehumidifier must be properly installed and grounded as described in this manual before it is used.

■Never operate this dehumidifier in an area that is likely to accumulate standing water. If this condition develops, for your safety disconnect the power supply before stepping into the water.

■Never unplug your dehumidifier by pulling on the power cord. Always grip plug firmly and pull straight out from the receptacle.

■Replace immediately all electric service cords that have become frayed 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.

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

■Turn the dehumidifier OFF and unplug it before cleaning.

■GE does not support any servicing of

the dehumidifier. We strongly recommend that you do not attempt to service the dehumidifier 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 dehumidifiers 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.

■Do not use outdoors.

■This dehumidifier is intended for indoor residential applications only. This dehumidifier should not be used for commercial or industrial applications.

HOW TO CONNECT ELECTRICITY

Consumer Support Troubleshooting

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.

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 dehumidifier should always be plugged into its own individual electrical outlet, which has a voltage rating matching the rating plate.

This provides the best performance and also prevents overloading house wiring circuits, which could cause a fire hazard from overheated wires.

Inverter technology allows these units to adjust their compressor speed dynamically, which not only results in more efficient energy usage but also ensures a more consistent temperature throughout the space. This technology minimizes energy wastage, lowering utility bills and enhancing environmental sustainability.

The AHR40 and AHW40 models are particularly noted for their compact design, which makes them ideal for residential installations where space may be constrained. Both units offer impressive SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio) ratings, which signify their efficiency in cooling operation. Additionally, they are equipped with whisper-quiet operation capabilities, ensuring that they contribute to a comfortable environment without disruptive noise.

For larger spaces, the AHW65 model provides powerful performance without compromising on efficiency. This model is engineered to handle greater cooling demands, making it suitable for larger homes or commercial spaces. Its robust construction and advanced features cater to environments where high-performance cooling is essential.

Meanwhile, the AHR30 and AHW30 models are designed with a focus on reliability and ease of use. These models often incorporate user-friendly interfaces, allowing for straightforward temperature adjustments and settings. Furthermore, they are designed to be environmentally conscious, frequently using refrigerants with lower global warming potential, aligning with modern energy standards and regulations.

Across the entire series, GE ensures that all units come with comprehensive warranty packages, reflecting confidence in their durability and performance. Regular maintenance points are also designed into the units, making it easier for homeowners and technicians alike to ensure optimum functioning over time.
