READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING – When using
this appliance, always exercise basic safety
SUHFDXWLRQVLQFOXGLQJWKHIROORZLQJ
• Use this appliance only for its intended
purpose DVGHVFULEHGLQWKLV2ZQHU·V0DQXDO
• This refrigerator must be properly installed
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.
• After your refrigerator is in operation,
do not touch the cold surfaces in the
freezer compartment, particularly when
hands are damp or wet. Skin may adhere
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 an automatic icemaker,
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 your refrigerator before cleaning
and making repairs. NOTE: We strongly
recommend that any servicing be performed
by a qualified individual.
• Before replacing a burned-out light bulb,
set the Master Light switch in the OFF position
to turn off the lights in order to avoid contact
with a live wire filament. (A burned-out light
bulb may break when being replaced.)
NOTE: Setting the refrigerator temperature
controls to OFF does not remove power
to the light circuit.
DANGER: RISK OF CHILD ENTRAPMENT
Child entrapment and suffocation are not
problems of the past. Junked or abandoned
refrigeration products are still dangerous… even
if they will sit for “just a few days.” If you are
getting rid of your old appliance, please follow
these instructions to help prevent accidents.
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.
• Do not refreeze frozen foods which have
thawed completely.

• Take off the doors.
• Leave the shelves in place so that children may
not easily climb inside.

AVERTISSEMENT : Lorsque
vous utilisez le réfrigérateur, observez
toujours certaines précautions de base,
notamment :
• N’utilisez le réfrigérateur que pour son usage
prévu, comme décrit dans le présent manuel.
• Installez le réfrigérateur conformément aux
directives d’installation avant de l’utiliser.
• Ne laissez pas les enfants grimper, s’asseoir,
se tenir debout ni se pendre aux clayettes
du réfrigérateur. Ils pourraient endommager
le réfrigérateur et se blesser gravement.
• Une fois le réfrigérateur en marche,
ne touchez pas les surfaces froides
du congélateur, surtout si vous avez
les mains humides ou mouillées : la peau
risque d’adhérer à ces surfaces très froides.
• N’entreposez et n’utilisez pas d’essence
ou autres vapeurs et liquides inflammables
à proximité de cet appareil ou de tout autre
appareil électroménager.
• Pour les réfrigérateurs dotés d’une machine
à glaçons automatique, évitez le contact avec
les pièces mobiles du mécanisme éjecteur,
ou avec l’élément chauffant situé à la partie
pas les doigts ou les mains sur le mécanisme
de la machine à glaçons pendant que
le réfrigérateur est branché.
• Éloignez les doigts des parties du
réfrigérateur où l’on peut facilement
se pincer : les espaces entre les portes
et les placards sont toujours étroits. Soyez
prudent lorsque vous fermez les portes
de l’appareil en présence des enfants.
• Débranchez votre réfrigérateur avant
de le nettoyer et de le réparer. REMARQUE :
Nous vous recommandons vivement de confier
toute réparation à un technicien qualifié.
• Avant de remplacer une ampoule grillée,
mettez le commutateur de lumière principale
en position OFF (arrêt) pour éteindre la lumière
afin d’éviter tout contact avec un fil sous
tension. (Une ampoule grillée peut se briser
pendant l’opération). REMARQUE : Lorsque
vous placez les commandes de température
du réfrigérateur sur OFF (arrêt), l’alimentation
électrique de l’ampoule n’est pas coupée.
• Ne faites PAS recongeler des aliments
surgelés qui ont complètement dégelé.
DANGER! RISQUES POUR LES ENFANTS
Les enfants pris au piège ou morts d’asphyxie
sont toujours d’actualité. Les appareils de
réfrigération abandonés sont toujours aussi
dangereux, même si on n’attend que “quelque
jours” pour s’en débarasser. Si vous ne gardez
pas votre ancien appareil, veuillez suivre
les directives ci-dessous afin de prévenir
les accidents.
RÉFRIGÉRANTS
Tous les appareils de réfrigération
contiennent des réfrigérants qui, conformément
aux lois fédérales, doivent être enlevés avant
toute élimination de l’appareil. Si vous vous
débarrassez de vieux appareils de réfrigération,
vérifiez, auprès de la société qui s’occupe
de leur élimination, ce que vous devez faire.
Avant de vous débarasser de votre vieux

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.
Use of a GFI (Ground Fault Interruptor) is not
recommended for the refrigerator outlet.
The appliance 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.
DO NOT USE AN ADAPTER PLUG TO
CONNECT THE REFRIGERATOR TO A
2-PRONG OUTLET.
DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD WITH
THIS APPLIANCE.
Never unplug an appliance by pulling on the
power cord. Always grip the 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 appliance, be careful not to
roll over or damage the power cord.

RACCORDEMENT ÉLECTRIQUE
Ne coupez ni retirez en aucun cas la troisième broche
(mise à la terre) de la fiche du cordon d’alimentation. Pour
votre sécurité, cet appareil doit être correctement mis
à la terre.
Le cordon d’alimentation de cet appareil est muni d’une fiche
à 3 broches (mise à la terre) qui se branche dans une prise
mural ordinaire à 3 alvéoles (mise à la terre) pour réduire au
minimum les risques du chocs électriques.
Faites examiner la prise de courant et le circuit par un
électricien qualifié pour vous assurer que la prise est
correctement mise à la terre.
Si la prise murale est du type standard à 2 alvéoles, il vous
incombe de la faire remplacer par une prise à 3 alvéoles
correctement mise à la terre.
L’utilisation d’un interrupteur de défaut à la terre (GFI–
Ground Fault Interruptor) nést pas recommandé pour la
prise de courant du réfrigérateur.
La machine à glaçons doit toujours être branché dans
sa propre prise de courant, dont la tension nominale est
identique à celle indiquée sur la plaque signalétique. Cette
précaution est recommandée pour garantir un rendement
optimum et éviter une surcharge des circuits électriques de
la résidence, ce qui pourrait créer un risque d’incendie par
surschauffe des fils.
N’UTILISEZ PAS UNE FICHE D’ADAPTATION POUR
RACCORDER LE RÉFRIGÉRATEUR DANS UNE PRISE MURALE À
2 ALVÉOLES.
N’UTILISEZ PAS DE CORDONS PROLONGATEURS AVEC CET
APPAREIL.
Ne débranchez jamais l’appareil en tirant le cordon
d’alimentation. Saisissez fermement la fiche du cordon et
tirez droit pour la retirer de la prise.
Réparez ou remplacez immédiatement tout cordon effiloché
ou endommagé. N’utilisez pas un cordon fendillé ou
présentant des signes d’usure.
Lorsque vous déplacez l’appareil du mur, faites attention de
ne pas la faire rouler sur le cordon d’alimentation afin de ne
pas l’endommager.

GE-branded filters in GE and Hotpoint
meet rigorous industry NSF standards for safety and quality that are important for products that are filtering your water. GE has not
qualified non-GE-branded filters for use in GE and Hotpoint refrigerators and there is no assurance
that non-GE-branded filters meet GE's standards for quality, performance and reliability.
