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 allow anyone to climb, sit, stand or hang

on the Refreshment Center door. They could

damage the refrigerator and maybe even tip it

over, causing severe personal injury.

■■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

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

or position does

not remove power to the light circuit.

■

■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.

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.

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.

About the refreshment center.

On some models

The Refreshment Center Compartment stores frequently used items.

When open, the Refreshment Center door provides a convenient work surface. Although

durable, the work surface should not be used as a cutting board. Close the door when

finished. The upper fresh food compartment light will come on when the Refreshment

Center door is opened.

The special design of the door allows you to tilt and lift up the door in order to clean the

bottom of the frame.

NOTE: Use caution in closing or using the clean-out feature in the presence of small children.

Cold air entering from the freezer compartment keeps the temperature in the

Refreshment Center Compartment at proper food-keeping levels.

The bin panel limits the amount of cold air that escapes when the Refreshment Center

door is opened. To reach food from the inside, lift the panel up.

To remove the Refreshment Center bin, first remove the panel using the hand holds.

Then remove the bin by lifting it up and out.

Bottom of Frame

Automatic Icemaker

The icemaker will produce eight cubes per

cycle—approximately 120 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

(down) position.

The icemaker will fill with water when it cools

to freezing. 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.

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.

Important Facts About Your Dispenser

■Add ice before filling the glass with a

beverage.

■Do not add ice from trays or bags to

the storage bin. It may not crush or

dispense well.

■Avoid overfilling glass with ice and use of

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 icemaker or

auger to jam.

■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 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, add crushed ice or cubes

before dispensing water.

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.

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.

For best results, use a brush specially

designed for this purpose. It is available at

most appliance parts stores.

To remove the base grille,

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.

Weight limitations for custom panels:

Fresh Food 35 lb. (16 kg) max.

Freezer Door 25 lb. (11 kg) max.

Installing the water line.

Read these instructions completely and carefully.

Before You Begin

When connecting a GE Reverse Osmosis Water System to your refrigerator, the only

approved installation is with a GE RVKIT.

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

feeler arm is kept in the (up) position.STOP

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

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). Be sure there is sufficient extra tubing [about 8 feet

(244 cm) coiled into 3 turns of about 10 inches (25 cm) diameter] to allow the refrigerator to

move out from the wall after installation.

■

A water supply kit

(containing copper tubing, shutoff valve and fittings listed below) is

available at extra cost from your dealer or from Parts and Accessories, 800-626-2002.

■

Cold water supply.

The water pressure must be between 40 and 120 p.s.i.

■

Power drill.

■

Copper tubing,

1/4″ outer diameter to connect the refrigerator to the water supply. Be sure

both ends of the tubing are cut square.

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

″

outer diameter compression nuts and 2 ferrules (sleeves)—

to connect the copper

tubing to the shutoff valve and the refrigerator water valve.

■If your existing 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

you can cut off the

flared fitting with a

tube cutter

and then use a compression fitting.

■

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.

Customer ServiceTroubleshooting TipsOperating InstructionsSafety Instructions Installation Instructions

Shut Off the Main Water Supply

Turn on the nearest faucet long enough to clear the line of water.

Install the Shutoff Valve

Install the shutoff valve on the nearest

frequently used drinking water line.

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 copper

tubing.

NOTE: Commonwealth of Massachusetts Plumbing Codes

248CMR shall be adhered to. Saddle valves are illegal and

use is not permitted in Massachusetts. Consult with your

licensed plumber.

Route the Copper Tubing and Connect It to the Shutoff Valve

Route the copper tubing between the cold water

line and the refrigerator.

Route the tubing through a hole drilled 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.

NOTE: Commonwealth of Massachusetts Plumbing Codes

248CMR shall be adhered to. Saddle valves are illegal and

use is not permitted in Massachusetts. Consult with your

licensed plumber.

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 water valve after about

one quart (1 L) of water has been flushed

through the tubing.

Installing the water line.

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 position. You may

need to pry open the clamp.

One of the illustrations below will look like the connection

on your refrigerator.

Turn the Water On at the Shutoff Valve

Tighten any connections that leak.

Plug In the Refrigerator

Arrange the coil of copper tubing so that it does 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

(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

(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.

Icemaker

The icemaker water valve will buzz when the icemaker fills with water. If the feeler

arm is in the

(down) position it will buzz even if it has not yet been hooked up

to water. Keeping the feeler arm in the

(down) position before it is hooked up

to water can damage the icemaker. To prevent this, raise the feeler arm to the

STOP

(up) position. This will stop the buzzing.

The sound of cubes dropping into the bin and water running in pipes as
