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 InstructionsInstallation Instructions
Operating Instructions
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.
Do not refreeze frozen foods which have
thawed completely.
NOTE: Turning the refrigerator off via the controls
on the touch panel does not shut off electrical power
to the refrigerator.

DANGER! RISK OF CHILD ENTRAPMENT
PROPER DISPOSAL OF THE REFRIGERATOR
GEAppliances.com
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.
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 the temperature controls.
Not all features are on all models. Your controls will look like one of the following:
Safety InstructionsInstallation Instructions
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.
On some models, setting both controls to the warmest setting until the display flashes (off) will stop
cooling in both the freezer and refrigerator compartments.
On other models, setting either control to the warmest setting until the display flashes (off) will stop the
cooling to the freezer and refrigerator.
NOTE: Turning the refrigerator off via the controls on the touch panel 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.

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.

About the refrigerator doors.GEAppliances.com
Refrigerator Doors
When the door is only partially open,
it will automatically close.
Beyond this stop the door will
stay open.
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.
Door Alignment
If doors are uneven, adjust the refrigerator
door.
Using a 7/16” socket 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.)
The resistance you feel at the stop
position will be reduced as the door
is loaded with food.
After one or two turns of the wrench,
open and close the refrigerator door
and check the alignment at the top of
the doors.
To remove the base
grille, open the doors,
remove the screw at
each end of the base
grille and then pull
the grille straight out.
Screw down the support
leg until it touches the
floor. This will prevent
door misalignment.

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 automatic icemaker.GEAppliances.com
A newly installed refrigerator may take 12 to 24 hours to begin making ice.
On dispenser models,
to access ice or reach
the power switch:
Pull the bin forward until the
bin stops.
Lower the bin to access ice
or reach the power switch.
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 OFF position.
When the refrigerator has been connected
to the water supply, set the power switch
to the 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.
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.

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 ICE. 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.

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.
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.
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 f inish.
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.
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.
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.
Safety InstructionsInstallation Instructions
Operating Instructions
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.
Preparing for Vacation
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.
When pushing the refrigerator back, make sure
you don’t roll over the power cord or icemaker
supply line (on some models).
If the temperature can drop below freezing,
have a qualified servicer drain
the water supply system (on some models) to
prevent serious property damage due
to flooding.
Set the icemaker power switch
to the OFF position and shut off
the water supply to the refrigerator.
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.

CONNECTING THE REFRIGERATOR
TO THE HOUSE WATER LINE
(icemaker and dispenser models)
A cold water supply is required for
automatic icemaker and dispenser
operation. If there is not a cold water
supply, you will need to provide one.
See “Installing the Water Line” section.
NOTES:
• Before making the connection to the
refrigerator, be sure the refrigerator
power cord is not plugged into the wall
outlet.
• If your refrigerator does not have a
water filter, we recommend installing
one if your water supply has sand or
particles that could clog the screen
of the refrigerator’s water valve. Install
it in the water line near the refrigerator.
If using GE SmartConnect
Tubing Kit, you will need an additional
tube (WX08X10002) to connect the filter.
Do not cut plastic tube to install filter.
If you are using copper tubing, place a
A
compression nut and ferrule (sleeve) onto
the end of the tubing coming from the
house cold water supply.
If you are using the GE SmartConnect
tubing, the nuts are already assembled to
the tubing.
If you are using copper tubing, insert
B
the end of the tubing into the refrigerator
connection, at the back of the refrigerator,
as far as possible. While holding the
tubing, tighten the fitting.
If you are using GE SmartConnect
tubing, insert the molded end of the
tubing into the refrigerator connection,
at the back of the refrigerator, and tighten
the compression nut until it is hand tight.
Then tighten one additional turn with a
wrench. Overtightening may cause leaks.

Installation Instructions
INSTALLING THE WATER LINE (ICEMAKER & DISPENSER MODELS)
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
Recommended copper water supply kits are
WX8X2, WX8X3 or WX8X4, depending on the
amount of tubing you need. Approved plastic
water supply lines are GE SmartConnect
Refrigerator Tubing (WX08X10006,
WX08X10015 and WX08X10025).
When connecting your refrigerator to a GE
Reverse Osmosis Water System, the only
approved installation is with a GE RVKit. For
other reverse osmosis water systems, follow
the manufacturer’s recommendations.
If the water supply to the refrigerator is from
a Reverse Osmosis Water Filtration System
AND the refrigerator also has a water filter,
use the refrigerator’s filter bypass plug. Using
the refrigerator’s water filtration cartridge in
conjunction with the RO filter can result in
hollow ice cubes and slower water flow from
the water dispenser.
This water line installation is not warranted by
the refrigerator or icemaker manufacturer.
Follow these instructions carefully to
minimize the risk of expensive water damage.
Water hammer (water banging in the pipes)
in house plumbing can cause damage to
refrigerator parts and lead to water leakage
or flooding. Call a qualified plumber to correct
water hammer before installing the water
supply line to the refrigerator.
To prevent burns and product damage, do not
hook up the water line to the hot water line.
If you use your refrigerator before connecting
the water line, make sure the icemaker power
switch is in the OFF position.
Do not install the icemaker tubing in areas
where temperatures fall below freezing.
When using any electrical device (such as a
power drill) during installation, be sure the
device is double insulated or grounded in a
manner to prevent the hazard of electric
shock, or is battery powered.
All installations must be in accordance with
local plumbing code requirements.
™
WHAT YOU WILL NEED
• Copper or GE SmartConnect™Refrigerator
Tubing kit,1/4” outer diameter to connect
the refrigerator to the water supply. If using
copper, be sure both ends of the tubing are
cut square.
To determine how much tubing you need:
measure the distance from the water valve
on the back of the refrigerator to the water
supply pipe. Be sure there is sufficient extra
tubing to allow the refrigerator to move out
from the wall after installation.
GE SmartConnect
are available in the following lengths:

WHAT YOU WILL NEED (CONT.)
NOTE: The only GE approved plastic tubing
is that supplied in GE SmartConnect
Refrigerator Tubing kits. Do not use any
other plastic water supply line because the
line is under pressure at all times. Certain
types of plastic will crack or rupture with age
and cause water damage to your home.
• A GE water supply kit (containing tubing,
shutoff valve and fittings listed below) is
available at extra cost from your dealer or
from Parts and Accessories, 800.626.2002
(in Canada 1.800.661.1616).
• A cold water supply. The water pressure must
be between 20 and 120 p.s.i. (1.4–8.1 bar).
• Power drill.
• 1/2” or adjustable wrench.
• Straight and Phillips blade screwdriver.

1
SHUT OFF THE MAIN WATER
SUPPLY
Turn on the nearest faucet long enough
to clear the line of water.
2
CHOOSE THE VALVE LOCATION
Choose a location for the valve that is
easily accessible. It is best to connect into
the side of a vertical water pipe. When it is
necessary to connect into a horizontal
water pipe, make the connection to the
top or side, rather than at the bottom,
to avoid drawing off any sediment from
the water pipe.
• Two 1/4” outer diameter compression nuts
and 2 ferrules (sleeves)—to connect the
copper tubing to the shutoff valve and the
refrigerator water valve.
OR
• If you are using a GE SmartConnect
Refrigerator Tubing kit, the necessary
fittings are preassembled to the tubing.
• If your existing copper water line has a
flared fitting at the end, you will need an
adapter (available at plumbing supply
stores) to connect the water line to the
refrigerator OR you can cut off the flared
fitting with a tube cutter and then use a
compression fitting. Do not cut formed end
from GE SmartConnect
• Shutoff valve to connect to the cold water
line. The shutoff valve should have a water
inlet with a minimum inside diameter of
5/32” at the point of connection to the COLDWATER LINE. Saddle-type shutoff valves are
included in many water supply kits. Before
purchasing, make sure a saddle-type valve
complies with your local plumbing codes.

DRILL THE HOLE FOR THE VALVE
3
Drill a 1/4” hole in the water pipe (even if
using a self-piercing valve), using a sharp
bit. Remove any burrs resulting from
drilling the hole in the pipe.
Take care not to allow water to drain into
the drill.
Failure to drill a 1/4” hole may result in
reduced ice production or smaller cubes.

You may hear the fans spinning at high speeds.
This happens when the refrigerator is first plugged in,
when the doors are opened frequently or when
a large amount of food is added to the refrigerator or
freezer compartments. The fans are helping to maintain
the correct temperatures.
If either door is open for over 3 minutes, you may hear
the fans come on in order to cool the light bulbs.
The fans change speeds in order to provide optimal
cooling and energy savings.
CLICKS, POPS,
CRACKS and CHIRPS
You may hear cracking or popping sounds when the
refrigerator is first plugged in. This happens as the
refrigerator cools to the correct temperature.
Electronic dampers click open and closed to provide
optimal cooling and energy savings.
The compressor may cause a clicking or chirping sound
when attempting to restart (this could take
up to 5 minutes).
The electronic control board may cause a clicking sound
when relays activate to control refrigerator components.
Expansion and contraction of cooling coils during and
after defrost can cause a cracking or popping sound.
On models with an icemaker, after an icemaking cycle,
you may hear the ice cubes dropping into
the ice bucket.
WATER SOUNDS
The flow of refrigerant through the freezer cooling coils
may make a gurgling noise like boiling water.
Water dropping on the defrost heater can cause a sizzling,
popping or buzzing sound during the defrost cycle.
A water dripping noise may occur during the defrost cycle
as ice melts from the evaporator and flows into the drain
pan.
Closing the door may cause a gurgling sound due to
pressure equalization.
