A DANGER!RISK OFCHILDENTRAPMENT
PROPERDISPOSALOFTHEREFRIGERATOR
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 refiigerato_; please fbllow the instructions
below to help prevent accidents.
Refrigerants
All refiigeration products contain refiigerants,
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.
Before YouThrew Away YourOld
Refrigeratoror Freezer.
N Take off the doors.
/}_5Leave the shelves in place so that children
may not easily climb inside.
USEOFEXTENSIONCORDS
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-wdre grounding type appliance extension cord having a grounding
type plug and outlet and that the elecnical rating of the cord be 15 amperes (minimum) and 190 volts.

A WARNING!
HOWTOCONNECTELECTRICITY
Do not, under any circumstances, cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord.
Forpersonal safe_ 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) w_l outlet to
minimize the possibility of electric shock hazard
from this appliance.
Have tile wall outlet and circuit checked by a
qualified electrician to make sure tile outlet is
properly grounded.
Where a standard 2-prong wall oudet is
encountered, it isyour pel.-sonal responsibility and
obligation m have it replaced witll a properly
grounded 3-prong wall outlet.
The refrigerator should always be plugged into its
own individual electrical oudet which has a voltage
rating tllat matches the rating plate.
This provides tile 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. _Mwaysgrip plug firmly and pull
sn'aight out from tile outlet.
Repair or replace immediately all power cords that
have hecome frayed or odmrwise damaged. Do not
use a cord that shows cracks or abrasion damage
along its lengtll or at eidmr end.
When moving the refiigerator away from tile
wall, be careful not to roll over or damage the
power cord.
USEOFADAPTERPLUGS(Adapterpl,gsnotpermittedinCanada)
Because of potential safety hazards under certain conditions, we strongly recommend against the
use of an adapter plug.
Howevm; if you must use an adapter, where local
codes permit, a temporary connection may be made
m a properly grounded 2-prong wall outlet by use
era UL-listed adapter a'_ailable at most local
hardware stores.
The larger slot in tile adapter must be aligned witll
tile larger slot in dm wall outlet to provide proper
polarity in the connection of the power cord.
When disconnecting tile power cord from the
adapter, al,a-ayshold tile adapter in place with one
hand while pulling tile power cord plug with tile
other hand. If this is not done, tile adapter ground
terminal is very likely to break with repeated use.
If the adapter ground terminal breaks, DO NOT USE
tlle refrigerator until a proper ground has been
established.

Feeler arm model
The icemaker will produce approximately
3 m glA lbs. of ice in a 24-hour period,
depending on tile freezer compartment
temperature, room temperature, number
of door openings and other use conditions.
There are two types of icemakers: power
switch models and feeler arm models.
If the refrigerator is operated before the
water connection is made to the icemakm;
set the power switch m 0 (0if)or move the
feeler arm to the STOP (up) position.
When the refrigerator has been connected
to the water supply, set the power switch to
the I (on)position or move the feeler ann to
the ON (dovm) position. On power switch
models, the green light will come on.
The icemaker will fill with water when it
cools to 15°E A newly-installed refrigerator
may rake 12 to 24 hours to begin making
ice cubes.
t
Once the icemaker starts to make ice,
it may take up to 48 hours to fill the bin,
depending on the temperature settings
and number of door openings.
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 clean
Be sure nothing interferes with the sweep
of the feeler ann.
When the bin fills to the level of the feeler
ann, the icemaker will stop producing ice.
It is normal for several cubes to be joined
together.
ff ice is not used fi'equently, old ice cubes
will become cloudy, taste stale, shrink or
fuse togethel:
On power switch models, the green power
light will blink if ice cubes get stuck in the
icemaker. To correct this, set the power
switch to 0 (0ffJand remove the cubes.
Set the power switch to / (on)to restart the
icemaker. After the icemaker has been
turned on again, there will be a delay of
about 45 minutes before the icemaker

Installation Instructions
INSTALLING THE WATER LINE (ON SOME MODELS)
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
Recommended copper water supply kits are WX8X2,
WX8X3 or WX8X4, depending on the amount of
tubing you need. Approved plastic v_-ater supply lines
are GE SmartConnect '' Refrigerator Tubing
(WX08XI0002, WX08X10006, WX08XI0015 and
WX08XI0025).
When connecting your refrigerator to a GE Reverse
Osmosis Water System, the only approved installation
is with a GE RVKit. For other reverse osmosis w-ater
systems, follow the manufacturer's recommendations.
This ,a-ater line installation is not ,a-arranted by the
refrigerator or icemaker manufacturen 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 w-ater 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 0 (Off)position (on power switch models) or tile
feeler arm is in the STOP (up) position (on feeler arm
models).
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 coppm; 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. Then add 8"
(2.4 m). Be sure there is sufficient extra tubing (about
8' [2.4 m] coiled into 3 turns of about 10" [25 cm]
diameter) to allow the refrigerator to move out from
the wall after installation.
GE SmartConnect ''_Refrigerator Tubing Kits are

2 ferrules (sleeves)--to connect the copper tubing to
the shutoff valve and the refrigerator water valve.
OR
[] SHUT OFF THE MAIN WATER
SUPPLY
Turn on the nearest faucet long enough to clear
the line of warm:
[] CHOOSE THE VALVE LOCATION
Choose a location for tile 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.
• If you are using a GE SmartConnec( MRefrigerator
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 refi'igerator 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 '_
Refrigerator tubing.
• Shutoff valve to connect to tile cold water line.
The shutoff valve should have a water inlet with a
minimum inside diameter of 5/32" at tile point of
connection to the COLD WATER LINE. Saddle-type
shutoffvalves 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
Drill a 1/4" hole in the ,a_ater 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.

NOTE: Be sure tbere is sufficient extra tubing
(about 8' [2.4 m] coiled into 3 turns of about 10"
[25 cm] diameter) to allow the refrigerator to move
out fl'om the wall after installation.
[] FLUSH OUT THE TUBING
Turn the main ,a-ater supply on and flush out the
tubing until the water is clear.
Shut the water offat the water valve after about
one quart (1 liter) of water has been flushed
tbrough the tubing.

Normal operating sounds.
Newer refrigerators sound different from older refrigerators. Modern refrigerators
have more features and use newer technology.
Do you hear what I hear? These sounds are normal
HUMMM...
WHOOSH...
• The new high efficiency compressor may run faster
and longer than your old refrigerator and you may
heal" a high-pitched hum or pulsating sound while
it is operating.
• You may hear a whooshing sound when tile doors close.
This is due to pressure equalizing within tile refrigerator.
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.
• The compressor may cause a clicking or chirping
sound when attempting to restart (this could take
up to 5 minutes).
• 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.
14///////
• 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 fhns are helping to
maintain the correct temperatures.
WATERSOUNDS

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.
• On models with a dispensm; during water dispense,
you may hear the water lines move at initial dispense
and after dispenser button is released.
