Using the Air Conditioner - Features

USING THE 

AIR CONDITIONER

Additional Features

The “Cool” circuit has an automatic 3 minute delayed 
start if the unit is turned off and on quickly. This prevents 
overheating of the compressor and possible circuit breaker 
tripping. The fan will continue to run during this time. 
There is a 2 second delay for the compressor to stop when 
selecting FAN ONLY/HEAT. This is to cover the possibility 

of having to roll through to select another mode. 
The control will maintain the set temperature within 1°F 
between 62°F and 86°F in cool or heat mode (on some 
models). 
After a power outage, the unit will remember last setting 
and return the unit to that setting when power is restore. 

Air Direction

Air directional louvers control air flow direction.
The louvers will allow you to direct the air flow up or down 
and left or right throughout the room as needed until the 
desired left/right direction is obtained. Pivot horizontal 
louvers until the desired up/down direction is obtained.

Ventilation

To open the ventilation port, remove the adjustable air discharge louvers by gently pulling forward the right end until 
it is released from the pivot point. Shift the louvers to the right to release the left end from its pivot point. To open the 
ventilation port, pull the lever forward. The lever will lock in place. To replace the air discharge louvers, reverse the 
above procedure

Remote Wall Thermostat (Heat/Cool models only)

All heat/cool models are capable of being controlled by a 
24 VAC remote wall thermostat. The thermostat control 
connection board is located behind a metal cover on the 
right side of the metal chassis cover. To open the cover, 
remove the Phillips head screw and lift from the slots at the 
bottom. To properly connect the wiring from a remote wall 
thermostat, follow these steps:
1.  Order the 8-pin connector from GE Appliances Service. 

Call 1-800-626-2002 and order WP26X24981. A 
connector is required for each unit being controlled by 
a wall thermostat

2.  Install the remote thermostat according to the 

directions included with it.
