IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.

WARNING!

Use this appliance only for its intended purpose as described in this Owner’s Manual.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should be followed, including the following:



 This refrigerator must be properly installed

and located in accordance with the Installation

Instructions before it is used.



 Do not allow children to climb, stand or hang

on the shelves in the refrigerator. They could

damage the refrigerator and seriously injure

themselves.



 Do not touch the cold surfaces in the freezer

compartment when hands are damp or wet.

Skin may stick to these extremely cold surfaces.



 Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable

vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other

appliance.



 Keep fingers out of the “pinch point” areas;

clearances between the doors and between the

doors and cabinet are necessarily small. Be careful

closing doors when children are in the area.



 In refrigerators with automatic icemakers, avoid

contact with the moving parts of the ejector

mechanism, or with the heating element that

releases the cubes. Do not place fingers or hands

on the automatic icemaking mechanism while the

refrigerator is plugged in.



 Unplug the refrigerator before cleaning and making

repairs.

NOTE: We strongly recommend that any servicing

be performed by a qualified individual.



 Setting either or both controls to 0 (off) does not

remove power to the light circuit.



 Do not refreeze frozen foods which have thawed

completely.

PROPER DISPOSAL OF THE REFRIGERATOR

Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems of

the past. Junked or abandoned refrigerators are still

dangerous…even if they will sit for “just a few days.” If

you are getting rid of your old refrigerator, please

follow the instructions below to help prevent

accidents.

Before You Throw Away Your Old

Refrigerator or Freezer:

 Take off the doors.

 Leave the shelves in place so that children may not

easily climb inside.

Refrigerants

All refrigeration products contain refrigerants,

which under federal law must be removed prior to

product disposal. If you are getting rid of an old

refrigeration product, check with the company

handling the disposal about what to do.

USE OF EXTENSION CORDS

Because of potential safety hazards under certain conditions, we strongly recommend against

the use of an extension cord.

However, if you must use an extension cord, it is absolutely necessary that it be a UL-listed (in the United States)

or a CSA certified (in Canada), 3-wire grounding type appliance extension cord having a grounding type plug

and outlet and that the electrical rating of the cord be 15 amperes (minimum) and 120 volts.

DANGER! RISK OF CHILD ENTRAPMENT

GEAppliances.com

WARNING!

HOW TO CONNECT ELECTRICITY

Do not, under any circumstances, cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord.

For personal safety, this appliance must be properly grounded.

The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a 3-

prong (grounding) plug which mates with a standard

3-prong (grounding) wall outlet to minimize the

possibility of electric shock hazard from this

appliance.

Have the wall outlet and circuit checked by a qualified

electrician to make sure the outlet is properly

grounded.

Where a standard 2-prong wall outlet is encountered,

it is your personal responsibility and obligation to

have it replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong

wall outlet.

The refrigerator should always be plugged into its

own individual electrical outlet which has a voltage

rating that matches the rating plate.

This provides the best performance and also prevents

overloading house wiring circuits which could cause a

fire hazard from overheated wires.

Never unplug your refrigerator by pulling on the

power cord. Always grip plug firmly and pull straight

out from the outlet.

Repair or replace immediately all power cords that

have become frayed or otherwise damaged. Do not

use a cord that shows cracks or abrasion damage

along its length or at either end.

When moving the refrigerator away from the wall, be

careful not to roll over or damage the power cord.

READ AND FOLLOW THIS SAFETY INFORMATION CAREFULLY.

About the controls with temperature settings.

The temperature controls are preset in the factory at 37°F for the refrigerator compartment and 0°F for

the freezer compartment. Allow 24 hours for the temperature to stabilize to the preset recommended

settings.

The temperature controls can display both the SET temperature as well as the actual temperature in the

refrigerator and freezer. The actual temperature may vary slightly from the SET temperature based on

usage and operating environment.

Setting either or both controls to OFF stops cooling in both the freezer and refrigerator compartments,

but does not shut off electrical power to the refrigerator.

NOTE: The refrigerator is shipped with protective film covering the temperature controls.

If this film was not removed during installation, remove it now.

About TurboCool.

™

(on some models) GEAppliances.com

How It Works

TurboCool rapidly cools the refrigerator

compartment in order to more quickly

cool foods. Use TurboCool when adding a

large amount of food to the refrigerator

compartment, putting away foods after they

have been sitting out at room temperature

or when putting away warm leftovers. It can

also be used if the refrigerator has been

without power for an extended period.

Once activated, the compressor will turn on

immediately and the fans will cycle on and

off at high speed as needed for eight hours.

The compressor will continue to run until the

refrigerator compartment cools to

approximately 34°F (1°C), then it will cycle on

and off to maintain this setting. After 8 hours,

or if TurboCool is pressed again, the

refrigerator compartment will return to

the original setting.

How to Use

Press TurboCool. The refrigerator

temperature display will show .

After TurboCool is complete, the

refrigerator compartment will return

to the original setting.

NOTES: The refrigerator temperature

cannot be changed during

TurboCool.

The freezer temperature is not

affected during TurboCool.

When opening the refrigerator door

during TurboCool, the fans

will continue to run if they have

cycled on.

About Door Alarm (on some models)

The door alarm will sound if any door is open

for more than 2 minutes. The beeping stops

when you close the door.

(on some models)

About Energy Saver (on some models)

This product is equipped with an Energy

Saver feature. The refrigerator is shipped with

the Energy Saver feature enabled.

Over time, moisture can form on the front

surface of the refrigerator cabinet and cause

rust. If moisture does appear on the front

surface of the refrigerator cabinet, turn off

the Energy Saver feature by pressing and

releasing the ENERGY SAVER pad on the

control panel.

(on some models)

Water Filter Cartridge

The water filter cartridge is located in the back

upper right corner of the refrigerator

compartment.

When to Replace the Filter

There is a replacement indicator light for the

water filter cartridge on the temperature display.

This light will turn orange to tell you that you

need to replace the filter soon. The filter

cartridge should be replaced when the

replacement indicator light turns red or if the

flow of water to the dispenser or icemaker

decreases.

Installing the Filter Cartridge

If you are replacing the cartridge, first

remove the old one by slowly turning it to

the left. DO NOT pull down on the cartridge.

A small amount of water may drip down.

CAUTION: If air has been trapped

in the system, the filter cartridge may be ejected

as it is removed. Use caution when removing.

Remove the protective foil from the end of

the cartridge.

Fill the replacement cartridge with water

from the tap to allow for better flow from the

dispenser immediately after installation.

Lining up the arrow on the cartridge and the

cartridge holder, slowly rotate the cartridge

clockwise until it stops. When the cartridge is

properly installed, you will feel it “click” as it

locks into place. Do not overtighten.

Run 1

1

⁄2 gallons (about 3 minutes) from the

dispenser to clear the system and prevent

sputtering. See To Use the Dispenser section.

Press and hold the RESET WATER FILTER

pad (on some models) for 3 seconds.

NOTE: A newly-installed water filter cartridge

may cause water to spurt from the dispenser.

Filter Bypass Plug

You must use the filter bypass plug when a

replacement filter cartridge is not available. The

icemaker will not operate without the filter or

filter bypass plug.

Replacement Filters:

For the maximum benefit of your filtration

system, GE recommends the use of GE branded

SmartWater filters only. Using GE branded filters

in GE and Hotpoint refrigerators provides optimal

performance and reliability. GE branded

SmartWater filters are always the right choice

because they are patented and designed

specifically for GE products. GE SmartWater

filters meet rigorous industry NSF standards for

safety and quality that are important for

products that are filtering your water. GE has

not qualified non-GE branded filters for use in GE

and Hotpoint refrigerators and there is no

assurance that non-GE branded filters meet GE’s

standards for quality, performance and reliability.

To order additional filter cartridges

in the United States, visit our Website,

GEAppliances.com, or call GE Parts and

Accessories, 800.626.2002.

Automatic Icemaker (on some models)

The icemaker will produce seven cubes per cycle—

approximately 100–130 cubes in a 24-hour period,

depending on freezer compartment temperature, room

temperature, number of door openings and other use

conditions.

See below for how to access ice and reach the power

switch.

If the refrigerator is operated before the water

connection is made to the icemaker, set the power

switch in the O (off) position.

When the refrigerator has been connected to the water

supply, set the power switch to the l (on) position. The

icemaker power light will turn green when the freezer light

switch is pressed in or when the freezer door is closed.

The icemaker will fill with water when it cools to 15°F

(–10°C). A newly installed refrigerator may take 12 to 24

hours to begin making ice cubes.

You will hear a buzzing sound each time

the icemaker fills with water.

Throw away the first few batches of ice to allow the

water line to clear.

Be sure nothing interferes with the sweep

of the feeler arm.

When the bin fills to the level of the feeler arm, the

icemaker will stop producing ice. It is normal for several

cubes to be joined together.

If ice is not used frequently, old ice cubes will become

cloudy, taste stale and shrink.

NOTE: In homes with lower-than-average water pressure,

you may hear the icemaker cycle multiple times when

making one batch of ice.

NOTE: Set the power switch to the O (off) position if the

water supply is shut off.

Important Facts About Your Dispenser

 Do not add ice from trays or bags to

the storage drawer. It may not crush or dispense well.

 Avoid overfilling glass with ice and use

of narrow glasses. Backed-up ice can jam the chute or cause

the door in the chute to freeze shut. If ice is blocking the

chute, poke it through with a wooden spoon.

 Beverages and foods should not be quick-chilled in the ice

st

orage drawer. Cans, bottles or food packages in the

storage drawer may cause the icemaker or auger to jam.

 To keep dispensed ice from missing the glass, put the glass

close to, but not touching, the dispenser opening.

 Some crushed ice may be dispensed

even though y

ou selected CUBED ICE. This happens

occasionally when a few cubes accidentally get directed to

the crusher.

 After crushed ice is dispensed, some water may drip from

Care and cleaning of the refrigerator.

Cleaning the Outside

The dispenser drip area (on some models),

beneath the grille, should be wiped dry. Water

left in this area may leave deposits. Remove

the deposits by adding undiluted vinegar to

the well. Soak until the deposits disappear

or become loose enough to rinse away.

The dispenser cradle (on some models).

Before cleaning, lock the dispenser by

pressing and holding the Lock Controls pad

for 3 seconds. Clean with warm water and

baking soda solution – about a tablespoon

(15 ml) of baking soda to a quart (1 liter)

of water. Rinse thoroughly and wipe dry.

The door handles and trim. Clean with

a cloth dampened with soapy water.

Dry with a soft cloth.

Keep the outside clean. Wipe with a

clean cloth lightly dampened with kitchen

appliance wax or mild liquid dish detergent.

Dry and polish with a clean, soft cloth.

Do not wipe the refrigerator with a soiled

dish cloth or wet towel. These may leave

a residue that can erode the paint. Do not

use scouring pads, powdered cleaners,

bleach or cleaners containing bleach

because these products can scratch

and weaken the paint finish.

Cleaning the Inside

To help prevent odors, leave an open box of baking soda in the fresh food and freezer compartments.

Unplug the refrigerator before cleaning.

If this is not practical, wring excess moisture out of sponge or cloth when cleaning around switches, lights or controls.

Use warm water and baking soda solution – about a tablespoon (15 ml) of baking soda to a quart (1 liter) of water. This both

cleans and neutralizes odors. Rinse and wipe dry.

Use of any cleaning solution other than that which is recommended, especially those that contain petroleum distillates, can

crack or damage the interior of the refrigerator.

Avoid cleaning cold glass shelves with hot water because the extreme temperature difference may cause them to break.

Handle glass shelves carefully. Bumping tempered glass can cause it to shatter.

Do not wash any plastic refrigerator parts in the dishwasher.

Trim kits and decorator panels. GEAppliances.com

Read these instructions completely and carefully.

Before You Begin

Some models are equipped with trim kits that allow you to install door panels. You can order

pre-cut black or white decorator panels from GE Parts and Accessories, 800.626.2002, or you

can add wood panels to match your kitchen cabinets.

Panels less than 1/4″ (6 mm) thick

When installing wood panels less than 1/4″ (6 mm) thick, you need to create a filler panel, such as 1/8″

cardboard, that will fit between the face of the door and the wood panel. If you are installing the pre-cut

decorator panels, pre-cut filler panels are included in the kit. The combined thickness of the decorator or wood

panel and the filler panel should be 11/32″ (8.7 mm) with the panel itself being no larger than 1/4″ (6 mm).

For panel-required models

Panels 1/4” thick or less

1/4” max

The handle and the top and bottom trim stand in front of the surface of the door, which requires that the filler

be smaller in length and width than the panel. Use the guidelines below and tape the filler onto the back of the

panel.

Dimensions for Custom Wood Panels

3/4″ (19 mm) or Raised Panel

A raised panel design screwed or glued to a 1/4″ (6 mm) thick backing, or a 3/4″ (19 mm) routed board can be used. The raised

portion of the panel must be fabricated to permit clearances of at least 2″ (5.1 cm) from the handle side for fingertip clearance.

Panels thicker than 1/4″ (6 mm), up to 3/4″ (19 mm) max., will require that the outer 5/16″ (8 mm) of panel perimeter be no

thicker than 1/4″ (6 mm).

POSITIONING THE REFRIGERATOR

TO ENGAGE THE ANTI-TIP FLOOR

AND BASE BRACKETS

Before pushing the refrigerator into the

opening, plug the power cord into the

receptacle and connect waterline (if equipped).

Check for leaks.

Locate the refrigerator’s RH side and move

back approximately in line with the RH side of

the cabinet opening, W. This should position the

anti-tip floor bracket to engage the anti-tip

base bracket on the refrigerator.

Gently roll the refrigerator back into the cabinet

opening until it comes to a complete stop.

Check to see if the refrigerator front lines up

with the cabinet front face. If not, carefully rock

the refrigerator forward and backward until

engagement occurs and you notice that the

refrigerator is fully pushed up against the rear

wall.

OPTIONAL: Adjust the rear (and front) wheel

height settings to fully engage the rear anti-tip

brackets, while also aligning the refrigerator

front with the cabinet front face.
