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 or

explosion, electric shock, or to prevent property damage, personal injury, or loss of life.

■This Zoneline must be properly

installed in accordance with the

Installation Instructions before it is

used. See the Installation Instructions

in the back of this manual.

■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.

■Unplug or disconnect the Zoneline at

the fuse box or circuit breaker before

making any repairs.

NOTE: We strongly recommend that any

servicing be performed by a qualified

individual.

About Your Heat Pump

Heat pumps can save money by removing heat

from the outside air—even when the outside

temperature is below freezing— and releasing

that heat indoors.

To get the best performance from your heat

pump, don’t change the room thermostat very

often. Raising the heat setting 2–3 degrees will

cause the Zoneline to use its electric heating

elements in order to reach the new temperature

setting quickly.

There is a three minute minimum compressor

run time at any setting to prevent short cycling.

The indoor fan motor starts before the

compressor and stops after the compressor

cycles off.

The electric heating elements use much

more electricity than heat pumps and cost

more to operate.

About the controls on your Zoneline. ge.com

Controls

Temp Control

The temp control is used to maintain the

room temperature. The compressor will

cycle on and off to keep the room at the

same level of comfort.

Press the + pad to raise the temperature.

Press the – pad to lower the temperature.

When the outdoor temperature is lower than

25°F, heat is provided by the electric heater in the

air conditioner instead of by the heat pump.

Sleep

Press to set the air conditioner to run for

8 hours before it automatically returns to

the previous setting.

When in the cooling mode and the

sleep timer is set, the set temperature will

automatically increase 2°F after the second

hour then 1°F each hour over the next two

hours. Also, the fan speed will change to

low. When in the heating mode, the set

temperature will decrease in the same

manner.

To cancel the sleep mode, press the MODE pad or

the SLEEP pad a second time.

Fan, Mode & Operation Control

FAN—sets the fan operation for HIGH,

LOW or AUTO speed. When set at AUTO,

it automatically switches between LOW

and HIGH as room temperature changes.

MODE—COOL—For cooling

FAN—For fan-only operation

HEAT—For heating

OPERATION—ON/STOP—Turns the unit

on or off. Power remains connected to the

Zoneline. The Freeze Sentinel feature still

functions if switch 6 is enabled (UP). See

Care and cleaning.

Base Pan

In some installations, dirt or other debris may be

blown into the unit from the outside and settle in

the base pan (the bottom of the unit).

In some areas of the United States a “jell-like”

substance may be seen in the base pan.

Check it periodically and clean, if necessary.

Outdoor Coils

The coils on the outdoor side of the Zoneline

should be checked regularly. If they are clogged

with dirt or soot, they may be professionally

steam cleaned, a service available through your

GE service outlet. You will need to remove the

unit to inspect the coils because the dirt

build-up occurs on the inside.

Clean the outside coils regularly.

Room Cabinet and Case

Turn the Zoneline off and disconnect the

power supply.

To clean, use water and a mild detergent.

Do not use bleach or abrasives. Some commercial

cleaners may damage the plastic parts.

Coils

Grille

Ventilation Filter
