Operating Instructions
Care & Cleaning
Turn the air conditioner off and
remove the plug from the wall out-
let before cleaning.
To clean, use water and a mild
detergent. Do not use bleach or
abrasives.
Grille and Case
The coils on the outdoor side of
the air conditioner should be
checked regularly. It is necessary to
remove the air conditioner from
the wall case to inspect them. Dirt
build-up occurs on the surface
which is not visible from the out-
side. If they are clogged with dirt or
soot it will reduce the cooling or
heating performance and the unit
will not work properly.
They may be professionally steam
cleaned, a service available
through your GE service outlet.
Outdoor Coils

The front grille can be removed
for more thorough cleaning or
to make the model and serial
numbers accessible.
To remove:
Pull out from the bottom and lift
up from the tabs on the top of the
case.
To replace:
Hook the tabs on the front grille
even with the tabs on the front of
the case and snap into place.
