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.
