DANGER! RISK OF CHILD ENTRAPMENT

Use this appliance only for its intended purpose as described

in this Owner’s Manual.

WARNING!

■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 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 cabinet are

necessarily small. Be careful

closing doors when children

are in the area.

■Unplug the refrigerator before

cleaning and making repairs.

■GE does not support any

servicing of the refrigerator.

■Turning the temperature

control dial to the

O (off)

position stops cooling but does

not shut off power to the

refrigerator.

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions

should be followed, including the following:

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

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, 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.

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.

stops cooling but does not turn off

the power to the refrigerator. Setting the control too high may cause

freezing in the refrigerator depending on the room temperature.

How To Test Temperatures

Use the milk test. Place a container of milk on a shelf and check it

a day later. If the milk is too warm or too cold, adjust the temperature

control.

After changing the control, allow 24 hours for the refrigerator to reach the

temperature you have set.

The control will look like the one above.

Shelves

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.

Ice Tray Compartment

This compartment is designed for production of ice cubes and

short-term storage (a few days at most) of some commercially-

frozen foods when in contact with the evaporator (cold surface

in compartment.)

Door Shelves

Shelves on the door provide convenient storage for frequently

used items. Some models have doors that are deep enough to

store large bottles.

Cleaning the Outside

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.

Cleaning the Inside

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.

Defrosting

(on manual defrost models with freezer area)

Defrost whenever frost on the wall of the ice tray compartment becomes

1/4

″

thick. Never use a sharp or metallic instrument to remove frost as

it may damage the cooling coils. (A punctured cooling coil will cause

serious problems and void the warranty.) We recommend using a plastic scraper.

Do not use any electrical device in defrosting your refrigerator.

To defrost:

■Remove foods and ice trays from the ice tray compartment.

■Set the temperature control dial at

O (off)

position.

■On models without a drip tray, place a pan beneath the ice tray

compartment to collect water.

Defrosting usually takes a few hours. To defrost faster, keep the

door open. Also, pouring warm (not hot) water on the frosted part

may speed defrosting.

Do not use boiling water—

it may damage

plastic parts.

After defrosting:

■Empty water from the drip tray or from the pan placed beneath

the ice tray compartment. Wash the tray or pan with warm water.

■Wipe the ice tray compartment with a damp cloth.

■Turn the temperature control to the desired setting and

return food and ice trays to the refrigerator.

NOTE: If ice buildup is very thick, it may keep the ice tray compartment door

from opening or closing completely. Don’t try to force it open; after defrosting,

the door will open and close easily.

Preparing for Vacation

For long vacations or absences, remove food and unplug the

refrigerator. Move the control to the

O (off)

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 ice trays by taping them

securely in place to prevent damage.

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