READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THE APPLIANCE

RISK OF FIRE. Could cause serious injury or death.

  • DO NOT use an extension cord with this Window Air Conditioner.
  • DO NOT use surge protectors or multi-outlet adaptors with this Window Air Conditioner.

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 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.

Do Not Operate in Freezing Outdoor Conditions
This cool-only air conditioner was not designed for freezing outdoor conditions.
It must not be used when the outdoor temperature is below freezing (32°F).
Control Panel Lights On/Off Feature
This air conditioner has a control panel lights on/off feature where its lights will turn off when there is no activity with the controls for over one minute. To wake up the controls, press any pad on the controls and the lights will come on to show the previous settings.
To turn this feature off, press and hold the Delay pad, on the unit, for 5 seconds. The unit will beep to signal the successful toggle of the feature on and off.
Control Panel Sound On/Off Feature
This air conditioner has a control panel sounds on/off feature where the sounds that occur when a button on the user interface is touched can be turned on or off.
This feature is turned on by default, meaning that the air conditioner will make a sound when any button is pressed on the user interface. To turn this feature off so as to make the button presses silent, press and hold the Filter button on the user interface for 5 seconds. The air conditioner will beep to signal the successful toggle of this feature on and off.

Remote Control

  • To ensure proper operation, aim the remote control at the signal receiver on the air conditioner.
  • The remote control signal has a range of up to 20 feet.
  • Make sure nothing is between the air conditioner and the remote control that could block the signal.
  • Make sure batteries are fresh and installed correctly as indicated on the remote control.

Cool Mode
Use the Cool mode at Low, Med, High or Auto fan speed for cooling. Use the Temperature Increase + / Decrease – pads to set the desired temperature between 64°F and 86°F in 1°F increments.
An electronic thermostat is used to maintain the room temperature. The compressor will cycle on and off and also change operating speeds to keep the room at the set level of comfort. Set the thermostat at a lower number and the indoor air will become cooler. Set the thermostat at a higher number and the indoor air will become warmer.

NOTE: If the air conditioner is off and is then turned on while set to a Cool setting or if turned from a fan setting to a Cool setting, it may take approximately 3 minutes for the compressor to start and cooling to begin.
Cooling Descriptions
For Normal Cooling—Select the Cool mode and High or Med fan with a middle set temperature.
For Maximum Cooling—Select the Cool mode and High fan with a lower set temperature.
For Quieter and Nighttime Cooling—Select the Cool mode and Low fan with a middle set temperature.

Eco Mode
Controls the fan.
ON—The fan will cycle on and off with the compressor.
This may result in wider variations of room temperature.
NOTE: the fan may continue to run for a short time or may pulse intermittently after the compressor cycles off to sample the room air.
OFF—The fan runs all the time, while the compressor cycles on and off.

Fan Only Mode
Use the Fan Only Mode at Low, Med or High fan speed to provide air circulation and filtering without cooling.
Since fan-only settings do not provide cooling, a Set temperature cannot be entered. The room temperature will appear in the display.

Auto Fan Mode
Set to Auto for the fan speed to automatically set to the speed needed to provide optimum comfort settings with the set temperature.
If the room needs more cooling, the fan speed will automatically increase. If the room needs less cooling, the fan speed will automatically decrease.

Quiet Mode
Quiet mode will ensure the most quiet mode of operation to satisfy the set temperature and provide room comfort in the space to be cooled. It is normal for the unit to operate for a longer period at lower energy consumption levels to achieve this.
It is normal to hear the unit switching speeds if it senses the room becoming uncomfortable.
Note: It is not suggested to use QUIET MODE when the temperature is above 104°F(40°C).

Troubleshooting Tips

Before you call for service

Save time and money! Review the charts on the following pages first and you may not need to call for service.

Problem Possible Cause What To Do
Air conditionerdoes not start. The unit is unplugged. Make sure the air

conditioner plug is pushed completely into the outlet.
The fuse is blown/circuit breaker is tripped.| Check the house fuse/circuit breaker box and replace the fuse or reset the breaker.
Power Failure.| The unit will automatically restart in the setting last used after the power is restored.
There is a protective time delay (approximately 3 minutes) to prevent tripping of the compressor
overload. For this reason, the unit may not start normal cooling for 3 minutes after it is turned back on.
The current interrupter device is tripped.| Press RESET button located on the power cord plug.
If the RESET button will not stay engaged, discontinue use of the air conditioner and contact a qualified service technician.
Air conditioner does not cool as it should.| Indoor airflow is restricted.| Make sure there are not curtains, blinds or furniture blocking the front of the air conditioner.
The temp control may not be set properly.| Turn the temperature control to a higher number.
The air filter is dirty.| Clean the filter at least every 30 days. See Care and Cleaning section.
The room may have been hot.| When the air conditioner is first turned on, you need to allow time for the room to cool down.
Cold air is escaping.| Check for open furnace registers and cold air returns.
Cooling coils have iced up.| See “Air conditioner freezing up” below.
Air conditioner freezing up| Ice blocks the air flow and stops the air conditioner from cooling the room.| Set the mode control to High Fan or High Cool with the temperature setting as high as it can be set.
Water drips outside| Hot, humid weather.| This is normal.
Water drips inside| The air conditioner is not tilted to the outside.| For proper disposal, make sure the air conditioner slants slightly from the case front to the rear.
Water collects in base pan| Moisture removed from air and drain into base pan.| This is normal for a short period in areas with little humidity; normal for a longer period in very humid areas.

Normal Operating Sounds

  • You may hear a pinging noise caused by water being picked up and thrown against the condenser on rainy days or when the humidity is high. This design feature helps remove moisture and improve efficiency.
  • You may hear the thermostat click when the compressor cycles on and off.
  • Water will collect in the base pan duringhigh humidity or on rainy days. The water may overflow and drip from the outdoor sideof the unit.
  • The fan may run even when the compressor does not.
  • Water droplets being thrown against the outside coils can make a pinging noise. This helps cool the condenser.
    You can reduce this noise by removing the subbase water plug.

GE Appliances AHTR Series Room Air Conditioner - Operating
Sounds

To ensure maximum efficiency it is recommended to check to ensure the rubber drain plug is properly inserted.
This plug may be removed during operation to minimize water in the back of the unit; however, removing it will lower the efficiency of your unit.

f) Make sure that cylinder is situated on the scales before recovery takes place.
g) Start the recovery machine and operate in accordance with manufacturer’s instructions.
h) Do not overfill cylinders. (No more than 80 % volume liquid charge).
i) Do not exceed the maximum working pressure of the cylinder, even temporarily.
j) When the cylinders have been filled correctly and the process completed, make sure that the cylinders and the equipment are removed from site promptly and all isolation valves on the equipment are closed off.
k) Recovered refrigerant shall not be charged into another refrigeration system unless it has been cleaned and checked.

Labelling
Equipment shall be labelled stating that it has been de-commissioned and emptied of refrigerant. The label shall be dated and signed. For appliances containing FLAMMABLE REFRIGERANTS, ensure that there are labels on the equipment stating the equipment contains flammable refrigerant.
Recovery
When removing refrigerant from a system, either for servicing or decommissioning, it is recommended good practice that all refrigerants are removed safely.When transferring refrigerant into cylinders, ensure that only appropriate refrigerant recovery cylinders are employed. Ensure that the correct number of cylinders for holding the total system charge are available. All cylinders to be used are designated for the recovered refrigerant and labelled for that refrigerant (i.e. special cylinders for the recovery of refrigerant). Cylinders shall be complete with pressurerelief valve and associated shut-off valves in good working order. Empty recovery cylinders are evacuated and, if possible, cooled before recovery occurs. The recovery equipment shall be in good working order with a set of instructions concerning the equipment that is at hand and shall be suitable for the recovery of all appropriate refrigerants including, when applicable, FLAMMABLE REFRIGERANTS. In addition, a set of calibrated weighing scales shall be available and in good working order. Hoses shall be complete with leak-free disconnect couplings and in good condition. Before using the recovery machine, check that it is in satisfactory working order, has been properly maintained and that any associated electrical components are sealed to prevent ignition in the event of a refrigerant release. Consult manufacturer if in doubt. The recovered refrigerant shall be returned to the refrigerant supplier in the correct recovery cylinder, and the relevant waste transfer note arranged. Do not mix refrigerants in recovery units and especially not in cylinders. If compressors or compressor oils are to be removed, ensure that they have been evacuated to an acceptable level to make certain that flammable refrigerant does not remain within the lubricant. The evacuation process shall be carried out prior to returning the compressor to the suppliers. Only electric heating to the compressor body shall be employed to accelerate this process. When oil is drained from a system, it shall be carried out safely.
