baffle. Corresponding wind baffle number can be found in product catalog. The installation instruction can be
found in the manual shipped with front wind baffle accessory or online at GEappliancesairandwater.com.
– If the outdoor unit is installed in a region that affected by snow accumulation, it is recommended to install the

comfortable indoor temperature. Corresponding side and back wind baffle number can be found in product
catalog. The installation instruction can be found in the manual shipped with side and back wind baffle (snow
