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 icemakers,
avoid contact with the moving parts of the
ejector mechanism, or with the heating element
located on the bottom of the icemaker. 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.

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.

Installation Instructions
About the temperature controls. ge.com
NOTE: The refrigerator is shipped with protective film covering the temperature controls. If this film was not
removed during installation, remove it now.
The temperature controls are preset in the factory at 37°F (3°C) for the
refrigerator compartment and 0°F (-18°C) for the freezer compartment.
Allow 24 hours for the temperature to stabilize to the preset
recommended settings.
Refrigerator temperatures can be adjusted between 34°F and 44°F
(1°C to 7°C), and the freezer temperatures can be adjusted between
–6°F and +6°F (–21°C to –14°C).

temperature.
To change the Freezer temperature:
Access By: Home > Freezer
Activate By: Using the arrows to select the desired
temperature. You must press ENTER to set the new
temperature.
Once the desired temperature has been set, the display will
return to the HOME screen and show the set temperatures
underneath the actual temperature display for several
seconds. Several adjustments may be required. Each time
you adjust the controls, allow 24 hours for the refrigerator
to reach the temperature you have set.
Non-LCD Models:
To change the temperature, press and release the WARMER
or COLDER pad. The SET light will come on and the display
will show the set temperature. To change the temperature,
tap either the WARMER or COLDER pad until the desired
temperature is displayed.
Once the desired temperature has been set, the
temperature display will return to the actual refrigerator
and freezer temperatures after 5 seconds. Several
adjustments may be required. Each time you adjust the
controls, allow 24 hours for the refrigerator to reach the
temperature you have set.
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.
Turning the cooling system off:
LCD models: Turning the cooling system OFF stops cooling in both the
freezer and refrigerator compartments, but does not shut off electrical
power to the refrigerator.
Non-LCD models: 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.
LCD Models:

About TurboCool.
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
LCD Models:
Access By: Home > Options > Refrigerator
Options > TurboCool
Activate By: Pressing ON.
Deactivate By: Pressing OFF.
Non-LCD Models:
Press TurboCool. The refrigerator
temperature display will show TC.
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 ClimateKeeper2.
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, while
maintaining E star-level efficiency.
The ClimateKeeper2 system features
two evaporators—one for the refrigerator
and one 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 refrigerator doors.
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 7/16wrench, 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.

Automatic Icemaker
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.
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 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.
Special note about dispenser models:
Dispenser 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
icemaker 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.
NOTE: In homes with lower-than-average water
pressure, you may hear the icemaker cycle multiple
times when making one batch of ice.
A newly installed refrigerator may take 12 to 24 hours to begin making ice.
Lift the bin, then pull it
forward until the bin stops.
Removing Ice Bin (dispenser models)
CAUTION: The ice bin is heavy when full.
Set the power switch to the O (off) position
before removing the bin.
When replacing the bin, be sure to press it
firmly into place. If it does not go all the
way back, remove it and rotate the drive
mechanism 1/4 turn. Then push the bin
back again.

To Use the Dispenser
Select CUBED, CRUSHED or WATER.
Press the glass gently against the top of the
dispenser cradle.
The spill shelf is not self-draining. To reduce
water spotting, the shelf and its grille should be

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.
LCD Models
Access By: Home > Options > Dispenser
Options > Precise Fill > Set Amount
Activate By: Using the arrow buttons to select
the desired amount. Press MORE UNITS to select
between CUPS, OUNCES, PINTS or LITERS.
Non-LCD Models
Press the WATER pad.
Press the CUPS or OUNCES pad.
Select the precise amount of water you
would like dispensed.
If you selected OUNCES, press the arrow
pads on either side of the display to
select the number of ounces you
would like to have dispensed between
1–99 ounces.
If you selected CUPS, press the arrow
pads on the left of the display to select
the whole cups (1–16 cups) and/or
the arrow pads on the right side of the
display to select fractions of a cup
(1/4–3/4 cups).
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 there
is no water left to dispense, then reset.
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
left to dispense.
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 icemaker fill the bucket properly
so that dispensing is better.

Cleaning the Outside
The dispenser drip area, 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. Before cleaning, lock
the dispenser by pressing and holding the
LOCK 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.
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.
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.
The chill/thaw tray is dishwasher safe.

Care and cleaning of the refrigerator.
About the ice and water dispenser. (on some models)
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 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 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.
17
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 icemaker 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.
ge.com
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 icemaker
supply line.
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.

Trim kits and decorator panels.
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, white, bisque or stainless steel 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 1/4(6 mm).
For CustomStyle
models
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).
