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.
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.
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.
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.
DANGER! RISK OF CHILD ENTRAPMENT
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 certified (in Canada), 3-wire grounding type appliance extension cord having a grounding type plug |
2 |
and outlet and that the electrical rating of the cord be 15 amperes (minimum) and 120 volts. |
GEAppliances.com
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.
Where a standard 2-prong wall outlet is encountered, 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.

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 38°F for the refrigerator compartment and –2°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.
Reset the LCD screen at any time by inserting a paper clip into the small hole next to the SD card slot under the front edge of the dispenser opening.
The Home Screen
The HOME screen is the default display on the refrigerator. From this screen you can change the fresh food and freezer temperatures, select the desired ice and water dispenser setting and access other functions as listed below. To return to this screen at any time, press the HOME button in the lower right hand corner of the screen.
Fresh Food Button: Displays actual as well as set temperatures in fresh food compartment. When TurboCool is active, it will be displayed.
Status Bar: Shows status of water filter.
Freezer Button: Displays actual
as well as set temperatures in freezer compartment. When TurboFreeze is active, it will be displayed.
Feature Lock: Hold for 3 seconds to prevent accidental use of
the dispenser. The lock will change from open to closed to indicate the dispenser and controls have been locked.

PHOTOS
Use the PHOTOS button to upload and display favorite photos that can be used as a 15-minute slide show or as a screen saver. The screen saver shows on the LCD screen after 2 minutes of inactivity. After 15 minutes, the backlight will go out. If the slide show is selected instead of the screen saver, the photos will scroll through in a slide show for 15 minutes before the backlight goes out.
Select the PHOTOS button on the HOME screen to see default photos and to begin the process of uploading photos.
UPLOADING PHOTOS
To upload photos, insert an SD card into the slot below the display. Up to 100 photos (6 per page) from the SD card are displayed as thumbnails in chronological order. Up to 30 photos can be uploaded. Photos can be selected one at a time on the screen or by using the ALL button if all photos (30 max) from the SD card are to be uploaded. To deselect all photos, select the NONE button. When photos have been selected, press the UPLOAD button. Uploading 30 photos will take between 3 and 16 minutes. The CANCEL button can be pressed
at any time to stop the uploading process. When the upload is complete, the display will show UPLOAD COMPLETE. Select the EJECT button to eject the SD card and wait to be prompted to remove the card. If the card
is removed without pressing the EJECT button, there is the possibility of damaging the files on the SD card. When the SD card is removed, the display returns to the PHOTOS screen.
NOTE: The dispenser will not work during photo upload.

DISPENSER WATER
SETTINGS (cont.)
UNITS
To change the temperature readings from English units to Metric units, press the METRIC button. Units shown on the HOME screen will now read in Celsius instead of Fahrenheit.
ICEMAKER
The unit comes with an icemaker installed. The icemaker rate of 9 cubes per cycle will depend 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, press and release the ICEMAKER button on the SYSTEM screen to disengage the icemaker. When the refrigerator has been connected to the water supply, press and release the ICEMAKER button on the SYSTEM screen to engage the icemaker. A newly installed refrigerator may take 12 to 24 hours to begin making ice cubes and the ICEMAKER default is ON (check).
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. 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. NOTE: In homes with lower-than-average water pressure, you may hear the icemaker cycle multiple times when making one batch of ice. NOTE: Turn OFF the icemaker if the water supply is shut off.

SLIDE SHOW takes the most recently selected photo among user-uploaded pictures and displays this one first, then the remaining random photos at 10-second intervals for 15 minutes.
BACKGROUND takes the most recently selected photo among user-uploaded pictures and displays this as a static image. After 15 minutes of displaying this screen with no activity,
the backlight will go OFF.
OFF sets no BACKGROUND, SCREEN SAVER or SLIDE SHOW.

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 38°F for the refrigerator compartment and -2°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.

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.

The filter cartridge should be replaced when indicated on the control panel. The water filter indicator light shows the following: Green – Good
Orange – Change soon Red – Change immediately
Follow the screen instructions shown in WATER FILTER in the About the 7” LCD Control Panel for LCD Models section.
Installing the Filter Cartridge
If you are replacing the cartridge, first remove the old one by slowly turning it counterclockwise. A small amount of water may drip down.
CAUTION: If air has been trapped in the system, the filter cartridge may be ejected as it is removed. Use caution when removing.
Remove the protective foil from the end of the cartridge.

Slowly rotate the cartridge clockwise until it stops. As you turn the cartridge, it will automatically raise itself into position. Cartridge will rotate about 1/4 turn.
Do not overtighten.
Press and hold the ICE & WATER pad for 3 seconds to reset the filter.
Run water from the dispenser for
3 minutes (about 11⁄2 gallons) to clear the system and prevent sputtering. See To Use the Dispenser section.
NOTE: A newly installed water filter cartridge may cause water to spurt from the dispenser.

About the automatic icemaker.
A newly installed refrigerator may take 12 to 24 hours to begin making ice.
ICE OFF/
LOCK
(Hold 3 sec to Lock Control)
Automatic Icemaker
The unit comes with an icemaker installed. The icemaker rate of 9 cubes per cycle will depend on the freezer compartment temperature, room temperature, number of door openings and other use conditions.
For Non-LCD Models: If the refrigerator is operated before the water connection
is made to the icemaker, press and release the ICE OFF/LOCK pad on the control panel to disengage the icemaker.
When the refrigerator has been connected to the water supply, press and release
the ICE OFF/LOCK pad on the control panel to engage the icemaker.
For LCD Models: If the refrigerator is operated before the water connection is made to the icemaker, see ICEMAKER under the Screen Functions of LCD Operations section and follow the screen commands to turn the icemaker OFF.
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.
NOTE: In homes with lower-than-average water pressure, you may hear the icemaker cycle multiple times when making one batch of ice.
NOTE: If the water supply is shut off, press and release the ICE OFF/LOCK pad on the control panel of the non-LCD model. For the LCD model, see ICEMAKER under the Screen Functions of LCD Operations section and follow the screen commands to turn the icemaker OFF.
NOTE: It is normal to hear ice falling into the ice compartment. It will make a marble-like sound.

Care and cleaning of the refrigerator. |
GEAppliances.com |
Cleaning the Outside |
|
The door handles and trim. Clean with a cloth dampened with soapy water. Dry
with a soft cloth. Do not use wax on the door handles and trim.
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.
Use floor protection under the rollers when moving the refrigerator. This will ensure there is no floor damage.
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.
The stainless steel panels and door handles.
Stainless steel (on some models) can be cleaned with a commercially available stainless steel cleaner. A spray-on stainless steel cleaner works best.
NOTE: The protective film may leave a residue that will need to be cleaned.
Do not use appliance wax, polish, bleach, abrasive cleaners or other products containing chlorine on stainless steel. Using cleaners with chlorine, such as bleach, may permanently affect the appearance of your new refrigerator.
Silver-accented plastic parts. Wash parts with soap or other mild detergents. Wipe clean with a sponge, damp cloth or paper towel.
Do not scrub with steel-wool pads or other abrasive cleaners.
Cleaning the Inside
To help prevent odors, leave an open box of baking soda in the refrigerator 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 an appliance wax polish on the inside surface between the doors.
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.
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.
Silver-accented plastic parts. Wash parts with soapy water. Wipe clean with a sponge, damp cloth or paper towel.
Do not scrub with steel-wool pads or other abrasive cleaners.
21
Care and cleaning of the refrigerator.
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.
Raise the leveling legs located at the bottom front of the refrigerator.
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.
Lower the leveling legs until they touch the floor.
When pushing the refrigerator back, make sure you don’t roll over the power cord or icemaker supply line (on some models) and ensure the anti-tip bracket is engaged (if equipped).
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.
Non-LCD Models: Turn on the Ice Off feature by pressing and releasing the ICE OFF/LOCK pad on the control panel (the 
icon displays) and shut off the water supply
to the refrigerator.
LCD Models: Turn off the icemaker by following the screen commands shown in the LCD Controls section.
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.
Preparing to Move
Secure all loose items such as base grille, 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.
