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, particularly when hands are damp
or wet. Skin may stick to these extremely cold
surfaces.
■
■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.
■
■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.
■
■Turning the control to the
OFF
position does
not remove power to the light circuit, dispenser
or icemaker.
■
■Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable
vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any
other appliance.
■
■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.
CFC Disposal
Your old refrigerator has a cooling system that used
CFCs (chlorofluorocarbons). CFCs are believed to
harm stratospheric ozone.
If you are throwing away your old refrigerator, make
sure the CFC refrigerant is removed for proper
disposal by a qualified servicer. If you intentionally
release this CFC refrigerant you can be subject to
fines and imprisonment under provisions of
environmental legislation.
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

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 wall 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.
USE OF ADAPTER PLUGS
(Adapter plugs not permitted in Canada)
Because of potential safety hazards under certain conditions, we strongly recommend against
the use of an adapter plug.
However, if you must use an adapter, where local
codes permit, a
temporary connection
may be made
to a properly grounded 2-prong wall outlet by use
of a UL-listed adapter available at most local
hardware stores.
The larger slot in the adapter must be aligned with
the larger slot in the wall outlet to provide proper
polarity in the connection of the power cord.
When disconnecting the power cord from the
adapter, always hold the adapter in place with one
hand while pulling the power cord plug with the
other hand. If this is not done, the adapter ground
terminal is very likely to break with repeated use.
If the adapter ground terminal breaks,
DO NOT USE
the refrigerator until a proper ground has been
established.
Attaching the adapter ground terminal to a wall outlet
cover screw does not ground the appliance unless the
cover screw is metal, and not insulated, and the wall
outlet is grounded through the house wiring. You should
have the circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make
sure the outlet is properly grounded.
Read and follow this Safety Information carefully.

Freezer Control
The freezer control maintains the temperature in the freezer compartment.
Fresh Food Control
The fresh food control maintains the temperature throughout the fresh food compartment.
Moving the fresh food control to
OFF
stops cooling in both areas—fresh food and freezer—but does not
shut off power to the refrigerator.
How To Test Temperatures
Use the milk test for the fresh food compartment. Place a container of milk on the top shelf
and check it a day later. If the milk is too warm or too cold, adjust the temperature controls.
Use the ice cream test for the freezer compartment. Place a container of ice cream in the
center of the freezer and check it after a day. If it’s too hard or too soft, adjust the
temperature controls.
After changing the controls, allow 24 hours for the refrigerator to reach the temperature you have set.
IMPORTANT!
When placing food packages in the freezer compartment make sure that they do not prevent
the freezer door from fully closing. A partially open freezer door will cause abnormally high
temperatures in the freezer compartment resulting in higher energy consumption.
Initially set the fresh food and freezer controls at 5.
For fresh food and freezer, 5 is normal, 9 is coldest.
Line up the setting with the dot.
If you want colder or warmer temperatures, adjust the
fresh food temperature first. When satisfied with that
setting, adjust the freezer temperature.

About storage drawers and storage drawer removal.
Not all features are on all models.
To Remove Storage Drawers
These drawers can be removed easily by
lifting up slightly while pulling the drawers
forward past the
stop
location.
When the fresh food door cannot be
opened enough to pull the drawer straight
out, remove the door on the left and slide
the other drawer toward the middle and
remove it.

When the drawer is placed in the top 6
slots on the left side and the lever is set at
(coldest), air from the freezer is forced
around the drawer to keep it very cold.
You can move the drawer to any location if
you don’t want the extra cold storage.
The settings can be adjusted anywhere
between (cold) and (coldest).
When set at (cold), the drawer will stay at
the normal refrigerator temperature.
The (coldest) setting provides the coldest
storage area.
Adjustable Temperature Meat Drawer
Automatic Icemaker
(on some models)
The icemaker will produce eight cubes per
cycle—approximately 100 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,
keep the feeler arm in the
STOP
(up)
position.
When the refrigerator has been connected
to the water supply, move the feeler arm to
the
ON
(down) position.
The icemaker will fill with water when the
freezer is cold enough. A newly-installed
refrigerator may take 8 to 12 hours to begin
making ice cubes.
Throw away the first few batches of ice to
allow the water line to clear of any debris.
Be sure nothing interferes with the swing of
the feeler arm.
It is normal for several cubes to be joined
together.
If ice is not used frequently, old ice cubes
will become cloudy and taste stale.

About the ice and water dispenser.
On some models
To Use the Dispenser
Select
CUBES, CRUSHED ICE
or
WATER.
Press the rim of the glass gently against the
dispenser pad.
If no water is dispensed when the refrigerator is
first installed, there may be air in the water line
system. Press the dispenser pad for at least two
minutes to remove trapped air from the water
line and to fill the system with water. To flush
out impurities in the water line, throw away the
first six glassfuls of water.
The spill shelf is not self-draining. To
reduce water spotting, the shelf and its grille
should be cleaned regularly.
A light switch turns the
night light
in the
dispenser on or off. The light also comes on
when the dispenser pad is pressed. The light
in the dispenser should be replaced with a
7-watt maximum bulb when it burns out.
CAUTION: Never put fingers or any other
objects into the ice crusher discharge
opening.
Spill Shelf
Dispenser Pad
Ice Storage Bin
To remove:
Lift the handle to free the bin from the
shelf and pull the bin straight out while
supporting it at front and rear.
To replace:
Slide the bin back until it clicks into place.
If the bin does not go all the way back,
remove it and rotate the drive mechanism
1/4 turn. Then push the bin back again.

Important Facts About Your Dispenser
■Add ice before filling the glass with a
beverage. This will prevent splashing.
■Do not add ice from trays or bags to
the storage bin. It may not crush or
dispense well.
■Avoid overfilling a glass with ice or using
narrow or extra-tall 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 bin. Cans,
bottles or food packages in the storage
bin may cause the dispenser to jam.
■Some crushed ice may be dispensed even
though you selected
CUBES.
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 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.
■Dispensed water is not ice cold. For
colder water, simply add crushed ice or
cubes before dispensing water.

Care and cleaning of the refrigerator.
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 L) of water. This both cleans
and neutralizes odors. Rinse and wipe dry.
After cleaning the door gaskets, apply a thin
layer of petroleum jelly to the door gaskets
at the hinge side. This helps keep the
gaskets from sticking and bending out of
shape.
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.
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 (on some models).
Under the Refrigerator
For most efficient operation, keep the
area under the refrigerator clean. Remove
the base grille and sweep away or vacuum
up dust.
Clean the condenser coils at least
once a year.
Cleaning the Outside
The dispenser spill shelf
(on some models),
should be wiped dry because it is not selfdraining. Water left under the grille may
leave deposits. Remove the deposits by
adding undiluted vinegar. Let it soak until
the deposits disappear or become loose
enough to rinse away.
The dispenser pad
(on some models). Clean
with warm water and baking soda solution—
about a tablespoon (15 ml) of baking soda
to a quart (1 L) of water. Rinse thoroughly
and wipe dry.
HINT: Open the freezer door part way to prevent
dispensing of ice or water when cleaning.
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.

serious property damage due to flooding.
Preparing to Move
Secure all loose items such as grille, shelves
and drawers by taping them securely in
place to prevent damage.
Be sure the refrigerator stays in an upright
position during moving.
Light Bulb Replacement
To replace a burned-out bulb, unplug the
refrigerator from its electrical outlet,
unscrew the bulb when cool and replace it
with an appliance bulb of the same or lower
wattage.

Preparing to install the refrigerator.
Read these instructions completely and carefully.
Water Supply to the Icemaker
(on some models)
If the refrigerator has an icemaker, it will have to be
connected to a cold water line.
A water supply kit (containing copper tubing,
shutoff valve, fittings and instructions) is available
at extra cost from your dealer or from Parts and
Accessories, 800-626-2002.
Refrigerator Location
Do not install the refrigerator where the
temperature will go below 60°F (16°C)
because it will not run often enough to maintain
proper temperatures.
Install it on a floor strong enough to support it
fully loaded.
Clearances
Allow the following clearances for ease of
installation, proper air circulation and
plumbing and electrical connections:

Trim kits and decorator panels.
For CustomStyle models
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 1/4″ (6 mm).
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″ (51 mm)
from the handle side for fingertip clearance.

Installing the water line.
Read these instructions completely and carefully.
Before You Begin
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 feeler arm is kept in the STOP (up) 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 insulated or wired in a manner to prevent the hazard of electric shock.
All installations must be in accordance with local plumbing code requirements.
What You Will Need
■
Cold water supply.
Choose the closest frequently used drinking water line. It is best to
connect to a vertical section of pipe. The water pressure must be between 20 and 120 p.s.i.
■
Power drill,
unless you have a self-piercing valve.
■
Copper tubing,
1/4″outer diameter to connect the water supply to the refrigerator. Be sure
both ends of the tubing are cut square.
To determine how much copper tubing you need:
Measure the distance from the water valve on the back of the refrigerator to the
water supply pipe. Then add 8 feet (244 cm). The extra tubing should be coiled into 3
turns of about 10 inches (25 cm) diameter to allow the refrigerator to move out from
the wall after installation.
Do not use plastic tubing or plastic fittings because the water supply line is under
pressure at all times. Certain types of plastic tubing may become brittle with age and
crack, resulting in water leakage.
■
Two 1/4″compression nuts and 2 ferrules (sleeves)—
to connect the copper tubing to the
shutoff valve and the refrigerator water valve.
■
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
cold water 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.
NOTE: A water supply kit
(containing copper tubing, shutoff valve and fittings listed above) is
available at extra cost from your dealer or from Parts and Accessories, 800-626-2002.

Installing the water line.
Read these instructions completely and carefully.
Installing the Water Line
Install the Shutoff Valve
Prepare to install the shutoff valve on the nearest
frequently used drinking water line.
Shut off the main water supply.
Then turn on an
appropriate faucet to release pressure in the
chosen pipe.
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.
Drill a 1/4″hole in the water pipe, using a sharp
bit. Remove any burrs resulting from drilling the
hole in the pipe.
Fasten the shutoff valve to the cold water pipe
with the pipe clamp.
Tighten the clamp screws until the sealing
washer begins to swell.
Do not overtighten or you may crush the pipe or
damage the tubing.

Route the Copper Tubing and Connect It to the Shutoff Valve
Route the copper tubing between the cold water
line and the refrigerator.
If necessary, drill a hole in the wall or floor (behind
the refrigerator or adjacent base cabinet) as close to
the wall as possible.
Be sure there is sufficient extra tubing [about 8
feet (244 cm) coiled into 3 turns of about 10
″
(25 cm) diameter] to allow the refrigerator to
move out from the wall after installation.
Place the compression nut and ferrule (sleeve)
onto the end of the tubing and connect it to the
shutoff valve.
Make sure the tubing is fully inserted into the valve.
Tighten the compression nut securely.
Also check if the shutoff valve is closed before
advancing to the next step.
Turn On the Water and Flush Out the Tubing
Turn the main water supply on and flush out the
tubing until the water is clear.
Shut the water off at the shutoff valve after at
least one quart (1 L) of water has been flushed
through the tubing.

Connect the Tubing to the Refrigerator
Before making the connection to the
refrigerator, be sure the refrigerator power
cord is not plugged into the wall outlet.
We recommend installing a water filter 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.
Remove the plastic flexible cap from the water
valve.
Place the compression nut and ferrule (sleeve)
onto the end of the tubing as shown.
Insert the end of the copper tubing into the
water valve connection as far as possible. While
holding the tubing, tighten the fitting.
Fasten the copper tubing into the clamp
provided to hold it in a vertical position.
You may need to pry open the clamp.

Plug In the Refrigerator
Arrange the coil of copper tubing so that it will not
vibrate against the back of the refrigerator or against
the wall.
Push the refrigerator back to the wall.
Start the Icemaker
Set the icemaker feeler arm to the
ON
(down)
position. The icemaker will not begin to operate
until it reaches its operating temperature of
15°F (-9°C) or below. It will then begin operation
automatically if the icemaker feeler arm is in the
ON
(down) position.
NOTE: The icemaker may double-cycle when it
first starts, causing some water spillage from
the icemaker into the ice bucket. This is normal
and should not happen again.

Normal operating sounds.
Depending on the placement of the refrigerator in your kitchen,
you may want to place a piece of rubber-backed carpet under
the refrigerator to reduce noise.
Icemaker
(on some models). You will hear ice cubes rattle as they drop into
the ice bin. If this is your first icemaker, you’ll hear occasional sounds that may
be unfamiliar, such as the motor humming or water trickling. They are
normal icemaking sounds and are not a cause for concern.
Evaporator Fan.
You may hear air being forced through the cabinet by the fan.
Evaporator.
The flow of refrigerant through the evaporator may create a boiling
or gurgling sound.
Defrost Heater.
During defrost cycles, water dripping onto the heater may cause
a hissing or sizzling sound. After defrosting, a popping sound may occur and
the evaporator may create a boiling or gurgling sound.
Cold Control & Defrost Timer.
These parts can produce a snapping sound when
turning the refrigerator on or off. The timer also produces a sound similar to
an electric clock.
Plastic Liner.
Cracking or popping sounds may be heard due to expansion of
the plastic liner.
Water Valve
(on models equipped with an automatic icemaker). When the
icemaker fills with water you may hear a click, a buzzing sound or running
water.
Water Pan.
Water may be heard running into the drain pan during the
defrost cycle.
Compressor.
Modern, high efficiency compressors operate much faster
than older models. The compressor may have a high pitched hum or
pulsating sound.
Condenser Fan.
You may hear air being forced over the condenser by the fan.
