USER MANUAL AEE18DS GE

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION. READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING. WARNING! For your safety, the information in this manual must be followed to minimize the risk of fire, electric shock or personal injury. ■ Use this appliance only for its intended purpose as described in this Owner’s Manual. ■ This air conditioner must be properly installed in accordance with the Installation Instructions before it is used. ■ Never unplug your air conditioner 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 unit OFF and unplug your air conditioner before making any repairs or cleaning. NOTE: We strongly recommend that any servicing be performed by a qualified individual. ■ 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. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS 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. 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.

Consumer Support Troubleshooting Tips Operating Instructions Safety Instructions Installation Instructions WARNING! Because of potential safety hazards under certainconditions, we strongly recommend against theuse of an extension cord. However, if you must use an extension cord, it is absolutely necessary that it be a UL-listed,14 gauge, 3-wire grounding type applianceextension cord having a grounding type plugand outlet and that the electrical rating of thecord be 15 amperes (minimum) and 125 volts. CAUTION: DO NOT use an extension cord with any of the230/208 volt models. EXTENSION CORDS—115-Volt models only READ AND FOLLOW THIS SAFETY INFORMATION CAREFULLY.

Installation Air Conditioner Instructions The 3-prong grounding plug minimizes the possibility of electric shock hazard. If the wall outlet you plan to use is only a 2-prong outlet, it is your responsibility to have it replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong wall outlet. Some models require 230/208-volt a.c., protected with a time delay fuse or circuit breaker. These models should be installed on their own single branch circuit for best performance and to prevent overloading house or apartment wiring circuits, which could cause a possible fire hazard from overheating wires. ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS CAUTION: Do not, under any circumstances, cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord. Do not change the plug on the power cord of this air conditioner. Aluminum house wiring may present special problems—consult a qualified electrician.

A storm window frame will not allow the air conditioner to tilt toward the outside, and will keep it from draining properly. To adjust for this, attach a piece of wood to the stool. WOOD PIECES– WIDTH: 2″ LENGTH: Long enough to fit inside the window frame. THICKNESS: To determine the thickness, place a piece of wood on the stool to make it 1/2″ higher than the top of the storm window frame or the vinyl frame. Attach securely with nails or screws provided by the installer.

Make sure the ground wire is off to the side and slide the air conditioner into the case. Do not push on the controls or the finned coils. Make sure the air conditioner is firmly seated. Reinstall the locking bracket and screw removed earlier. Reconnect the ground wire to the air conditioner using the screw removed earlier. IMPORTANT: The ground wire must be reinstalled to ensure a proper ground. Reattach the front grille frame to the case by inserting the tabs on the grille frame into the slots on the front top of the case.

(cont.) Press the grille frame in around the power cord on the right side. Secure the grille with the painted screws on each side and the screw in the front that were removed earlier. Reinstall the filter. Reinstall the inlet grille. Connect power. Caulk or weather-strip any gaps or openings to the outside to seal the installation.

Read completely, then follow step-by-step. NOTE: Except for the V-support assemblies (included), obtain all materials locally for mounting the air conditioner through-the-wall. IMPORTANT Through-the-wall installation is not appropriate if any of the side or top louvers in the case will be obstructed by the wall. All side and top louvers in the case must project on the outdoor side of the wall. The room side of the case must project into the room far enough to maximize the balance of the unit. The case must be installed level from side- to-side and with a slight tilt from front to rear. Use a level; no more than a 1/2 bubble will be the correct case slant to the outside. Lintel angle is required to support bricks or blocks above opening. Flashing is required and should extend the length of the opening to ensure no inside cavity leakage occurs. Remove the air conditioner from the case. For specific instruction, refer to the Window Installation Instructions. Make certain that a wall receptacle is available close to the hole location or make arrangements to install a receptacle. Place the case in the wall opening and place wood support strips between the case bottom and the flashing on both sides of the bottom rail. They should be the same height as the bottom rail and the same length as the wall opening.

Caulk all four sides on the outdoor side of the case to prevent moisture from getting through to the interior wall. Use of flashing (drip rail) will further prevent water from dripping inside the wall and down the outside of the building. Place the air conditioner into the case. For specific instruction, refer to the Window Installation Instructions.

IMPORTANT (cont.) Secure with 14 wood screws anchored at least an inch into the wall support structure. NOTE: Drill pilot holes, if necessary, for proper installation. If the frame is oversized, use shims to prevent case distortion. Install the V-supports. See the INSTALL THE CASE IN THE WINDOW section in the Window Installation Instructions.
