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.

 In refrigerators with automatic ice makers, avoid contact

with the moving parts of the ejector mechanism, or with the

heating element located on the bottom of the ice maker.

Do not place fingers or hands on the automatic icemaking

mechanism while the refrigerator is plugged in.

 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.

 Unplug the refrigerator before cleaning and making repairs.

NOTE: We strongly recommend that any servicing be

performed by a qualified individual.

 Non-LCD models: Setting either or both controls to 0 (off)

does not remove power to the light circuit.

 LCD models: Turning the cooling system off does not remove

power to the light circuit.

 Do not refreeze frozen foods which have thawed completely.

 Always clean the CustomCool

™

Tray after thawing food.

GEAppliances.com

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-listed (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

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.

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.

If the outlet is a standard 2-prong outlet, 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 ClimateKeeper2.

™

(on some models)

How it Works

The ClimateKeeper2

™

is the industry’s most

advanced refrigeration system, delivering

optimum temperature and humidity

performance to keep food garden fresh longer

and reduce freezer burn.

The ClimateKeeper2

™

system features two

HYDSRUDWRUV³RQHIRUWKHUHIULJHUDWRUDQGRQH

for the freezer.

This provides two separate cooling systems,

and separates the airflow between the fresh

food and freezer compartments during normal

cooling operations.*

This ensures that the humidity levels in the

fresh food compartment are significantly higher

than in a conventional system,** allowing fresh

produce and other unsealed foods to retain

their moisture content and freshness longer.

Moisture sensitive foods such as fresh fruit,

salads, rice, etc., can now be stored on open

shelves without excessive moisture loss.

Due to the higher humidity in the refrigerator,

you may on occasion experience fog or

small amounts of moisture in the refrigerator

compartment. This is normal and may

come and go as different food loads and

environmental conditions change. Wipe dry

with a paper towel if desired.

The separate airflow system minimizes the

mixing of air between the two compartments,

which reduces fresh food odor transfer to

improve the taste of ice.

The ClimateKeeper2

™

system also reduces

the number of defrosting cycles in the freezer

evaporator, thereby reducing freezer burn.

* Freezer air is used in the CustomCool feature.

** Testing shows a higher level of humidity in

the Fresh Food section in ClimateKeeper2

™

refrigerators versus conventional units.

About the water filter. (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 on Models With a

Replacement Indicator Light

There is a replacement indicator light for the water filter

cartridge on the dispenser. 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

ice maker decreases.

When to Replace the Filter on Models Without a

Replacement Indicator Light

The filter cartridge should be replaced every six months or

earlier if the flow of water to the water dispenser or ice maker

decreases.

Removing 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.

Installing the Filter Cartridge

If you are replacing a SmartWater cartridge with an

adapter, it must be removed before installing the cartridge.

To remove the adapter, turn it to the left about 1/4 turn.

If you are replacing a Water by Culligan cartridge, leave the

adapter in place. This adapter will stay in the refrigerator when

you replace future cartridges.

On models without a replacement indicator light, apply the

month and year sticker to the new cartridge to remind you

to replace the filter in six months.

Fill the replacement cartridge with water from the tap to

allow for better flow from the dispenser immediately after

installation.

Line up the arrow on the cartridge and the cartridge holder.

Place the top of the new cartridge up inside the holder. Do

not push it up into the holder.

Slowly turn it to the right until the filter cartridge stops.

DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN. As you turn the cartridge, it will

automatically raise itself into position. The cartridge will

move about 1/2 turn.

Run water from the dispenser 1-1/2 gallons (about three

minutes) to clear the system and prevent sputtering.

Press and hold the WATER FILTER pad (on some models) on

the dispenser for 3 seconds.

NOTE: A newly-installed water filter cartridge may cause water

to spurt from the dispenser upon first use.

Filter Bypass Plug

You must use the filter bypass plug when a replacement filter

cartridge is not available. The dispenser and the ice maker will

not operate without the filter or filter bypass plug.

To use the filter bypass plug on Water by Culligan models, you

must first remove the filter adapter from the cartridge holder by

turning it to the left.

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.

About the shelves and bins.

About the refrigerator doors.

GEAppliances.com

Refrigerator Doors

The refrigerator doors may feel different than

the ones you are used to. The special door

opening/closing feature makes sure the doors

close all the way and are securely sealed.

When opening and closing the door, you will

notice a stop position. If the door is opened

past this stop point, the door will remain open

to allow you to load and unload food more

easily. When the door is only partially open, it

will automatically close.

The resistance you feel at the stop position will

be reduced as the door is loaded with food.

When the door is only partially open,

it will automatically close.

Beyond this stop the door will stay

open.

Door Alignment

If doors are uneven, adjust the refrigerator

door.

Using a 7/16” wrench, turn the door

adjusting screw to the right to raise the

door, to the left to lower it. (A nylon plug,

imbedded in the threads of the pin,

prevents the pin from turning unless a

wrench is used.)

After one or two turns of the wrench,

open and close the refrigerator door and

check the alignment at the top of the

doors.

About crisper removal.

Not all features are on all models.

Crisper Removal

Crispers can easily be removed by pulling the

drawer straight out and lifting the drawer up

and over the stop location.

If the door prevents you from taking out the

drawers, first try to remove the door bins.

If this does not offer enough clearance, the

refrigerator will need to be rolled forward

until the door opens enough to slide the

drawers out. In some cases, when you roll the

refrigerator out, you will need to move the

refrigerator to the left or right as you roll it out.

About the crispers and pans.

Not all features are on all models.

Fruit and Vegetable Crispers

Excess water that may accumulate in

the bottom of the drawers should be

wiped dry.

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

on freezer compartment temperature, room temperature,

number of door openings and other use conditions.

If the refrigerator is operated before the water connection is

made to the ice maker, set the power switch in the OFF position.

When the refrigerator has been connected to the water supply,

set the power switch to the ON position.

The ice maker 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 ice maker 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 ice maker 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.

Special note about dispenser models:

 Some models have a tilt-out ice bin. The bin can be tilted out

as shown in the illustrations, and it will hold itself up while you

take ice out or turn the ice maker power switch on and off. Be

sure to put the bin back in place before closing the door.

 To restore your ice level from an empty bucket stage, the

following steps are recommended:

12 hours after the first batch of ice has fallen into the bin,

dispense 3 to 4 cubes.

After an additional 6 hours, dispense 3 to 4 cubes again.

These steps will restore your ice level in the shortest amount of

time.

A newly installed refrigerator may take 12 to 24 hours to begin making ice.

To Use the Dispenser

Spill Shelf

Precise Fill (on some models)

Quick Ice

This water dispenser is equipped with a feature

called “precise fill.” This feature allows you to choose

a precise amount of water (cups or ounces) that

you would like dispensed. Pints and Liters are also

available for LCD models.

Touch LED Dispenser Control

Press the PRECISE FILL CUPS/OZ pad.

The WATER pad will light and the CRUSHED

and CUBED ice pads will turn off. The last unit

used will be displayed.

Press the PRECISE FILL pad again to toggle

between cups and ounces.

If you selected OUNCES, press the

pad

to select the number of ounces you would like

to have dispensed between 2–99 ounces.

The default is 8 ounces.

If you selected CUPS, press the

pad to

select the amount you would like to have dispensed.

They are displayed as 1/4, 1/3, 1/2, 2/3 and 3/4, with

the highest amount being 16 3/4 cups. The default

is 1 cup.

Press the cup against the cradle and water will

begin dispensing. It will automatically stop when

the amount set has been dispensed. The display

will show the amount of water dispensed, beep,

then reset after 5 seconds.

NOTE: Do not leave the dispenser unattended when

water is being dispensed.

If you would like to stop dispensing water

before the specified amount has been

dispensed, just remove the cup from the cradle.

The display will show the amount that has been

dispensed for 5 seconds. If the cup switch is

pressed again within that time, the dispenser

will continue up to the set amount. If not, the

display will return to the set amount.

When you need to speed up ice production, use the

Quick Ice feature. While this feature is turned on,

the freezer fan runs continuously for 48 hours, or

until the feature is turned OFF. During this period, ice

production will increase up to 40%. Models with the

integrated ice feature system require at FIRST USE at

least half an 8 oz. glass of ice to be dispensed every 6

to 12 hours. This will help the ice maker fill the bucket

properly so that dispensing is better.

How to Use

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.

The stainless steel panels and door handles

(on some models) can be cleaned with

a commercially available stainless steel

cleaner. A spray-on stainless steel cleaner

works best.

Do not use appliance wax or polish

on the stainless steel.

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.

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.

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 storage drawer.

Cans, bottles or food packages in the

storage drawer may cause the ice

maker 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 you selected CUBED.

This happens occasionally when a few

cubes accidentally get directed to

the crusher.



After crushed ice is dispensed, some

water may drip from the chute.



Sometimes a small mound of snow

will form on the door in the ice chute.

This condition is normal and usually

occurs when you have dispensed

crushed ice repeatedly. The snow

will eventually evaporate.

Behind the Refrigerator

Be careful when moving the refrigerator away

from the wall. All types of floor coverings can

be damaged, particularly cushioned coverings

and those with embossed surfaces.

Pull the refrigerator straight out and return it

to position by pushing it straight in. Moving the

refrigerator in a side direction may result in

damage to the floor covering or refrigerator.

When pushing the refrigerator back, make

sure you don’t roll over the power cord or ice

maker supply line.

For long vacations or absences, remove food

and unplug the refrigerator. Clean the interior

with a baking soda solution of one tablespoon

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

water. Leave the doors open.

Set the ice maker power switch to the O (off)

position and shut off the water supply to the

refrigerator.

If the temperature can drop below freezing,

have a qualified servicer drain the water

supply system to prevent serious property

damage due to flooding.

Preparing for Vacation

Preparing to Move

Secure all loose items such as shelves and

drawers by taping them securely in place to

prevent damage.

When using a hand truck to move the

refrigerator, do not rest the front or back of the

refrigerator against the hand truck. This could

damage the refrigerator. Handle only from the

sides of the refrigerator.

Be sure the refrigerator stays in an upright

position during moving.
