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.



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.



Unplug the refrigerator before cleaning and

making repairs.

NOTE: We strongly recommend that any servicing be

performed by a qualified individual.



Turning the temperature control to the

“0”

position stops cooling but does not shut off

power to the refrigerator.

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.

DANGER! RISK OF CHILD ENTRAPMENT

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 CSA approved,

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.

GEAppliances.ca

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 you have only 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.

About the control on the refrigerator.

Control Settings

The temperature dial is located at the top of the fridge cabinet. The

“0”

position is off. Turn it to

the midpoint setting

(4)

Once the fridge is located, allow at least 24 hours before making any adjustments to the initial

setting.

Turn the dial clockwise to reduce the temperature. Aligning the arrow with

on the dial will

produce the lowest temperature.

As with any refrigeration product, there is a temperature variance at different locations within the

cabinet.

The upper part of the cabinet is the warmest section. The coldest part will be in the lower part of

the cabinet.

Shelves

About the refrigerator features. GEAppliances.ca

Door Shelves

Fruit/Vegetable Bin

To remove a shelf, lift up the back slightly and pull forward. Some models have

multi-position shelves that can be moved to different levels.

Shelves on the door provide convenient storage for frequently used items. Some

models have doors that are deep enough to store large bottles.

This compartment is for storing fruits and vegetables.

Care and cleaning of the refrigerator.

Cleaning the Outside

Cleaning the Inside

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.

Protect the paint finish

. The finish on the outside of the refrigerator is a high quality,

baked-on paint finish. With proper care, it will stay new-looking and rust-free for

years. Apply a coat of kitchen/appliance wax when the refrigerator is new, and then

at least twice a year.

To help prevent odors,

leave an open box of baking soda in the refrigerator.

Unplug the refrigerator before cleaning.

If this is not practical, wring excess moisture out

of sponge or cloth when cleaning around the control.

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.

Other parts of the refrigerator–including door gaskets, fruit and vegetable drawers,

and all plastic parts–can be cleaned the same way.

Do not wash any plastic refrigerator parts in the dishwasher.

Preparing for Vacation

For long vacations or absences, remove food and unplug the refrigerator. Move the

control to the

“0”

position, and 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 door

open.

Preparing to Move

Secure all loose items such as shelves and fruit/vegetable bin by taping them securely

in place to prevent damage.

Be sure the refrigerator stays in an upright position during moving.

Preparing to install the refrigerator. GEAppliances.ca

Read these instructions completely and carefully.



Do not install the refrigerator where the temperature will go below 50°F (10°C) because it will not

run often enough to maintain proper temperatures.



Install it on a floor strong enough to support it fully loaded.



Do not install it closer than 5” (13 cm) next to a range.



Do not install it in a recessed area.



Do not build in the refrigerator.

Refrigerator Location

Allow the following clearances for ease of installation and proper air circulation.

Sides 1/2” (13 mm)

Top 2” (51 mm)

Back 2” (51 mm) from the rear cabinet surface to the wall

Clearances

Leveling Legs (on some models)

Adjustable legs

at the front corners of the refrigerator should be set so the

refrigerator is firmly positioned on the floor and the front is raised just enough that

the door closes easily when opened about halfway.

To adjust the leveling legs,

turn the legs

counterclockwise to raise

the refrigerator,

clockwise to lower

it.

Turn counterclockwise to raise,

clockwise to lower.
