REPLACING AN EXISTING UNIT?
Use the correct wall case

Elements" l abelfor
importantinformation.
This unit is designed to be installed in a GE plastic or

the possibility of condensation rotating by inst;dling
insulation kit ]_M(901 I,, available where you pro'chased
the mfit.

"Essential Elements" label on the top of the unit.

efficiency will be reduced and the refit may tifil to
operam propedy
or fifil prematm'ely:
A deflector kit,
ILM(40, may be used with grilles that were not designed
tot w)ur new GE Zonelines.
The I_LM_40 contains air
cleflecto_ and gaskets that motmt to the refit to direct
the hot exhaust air away fl'om the air intake to allow
the refit to flmction properly. The g_ille must have
a 65% minimmn fl'ee area.
• Any vertical deflectors in the existing rear grille should
be reilloved to decrease condenser air recirctllation
which can cause the refit to "short-cycle" and lead
to pi'ei/lattli'e COli/ponent
fifth]re.
