Possible Causes

Unit operating in DRY mode instead of COOL, Low fan speed in DRY mode, User expectation mismatch

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Explanation: In DRY mode, GE air conditioners prioritize moisture removal and may run at low fan speed with limited cooling output.

Steps:

  • Check mode: Verify the unit is set to COOL mode if you want maximum cooling.
  • Adjust fan speed: Set fan to HIGH in COOL mode for stronger airflow.
  • Use DRY appropriately: Reserve DRY mode for mild temperatures with high humidity when you mainly want dehumidification.
