Installation Instructions

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.

WARNING!

Use this appliance only for its intended purpose as described in this wner’s Manual.

SAFETY PRECAUTI NS

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.

e 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.

■

■Setting either or both controls to the off position

does not remove power to the light circuit.

■

■Do not refreeze frozen foods which have

thawed completely.

PR PER DISP SAL F THE REFRIGERAT R

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 F EXTENSI N C RDS

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 certified, 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.

WARNING!

H W T C NNECT 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 F LL W THIS SAFETY INF RMATI N CAREFULLY.

Care and cleaning of the refrigerator.

Cleaning the Outside

The door handles and tri . 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.

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.

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.

To remove the light shield, grasp the

shield at the back and pull out to release

the tabs at the back.

Rotate the shield down and then forward

to release the tabs at the front of the

Plug the refrigerator back in.

NOTE: Appliance bulbs may be ordered from

GE Parts and Accessories, 800.626.2002.

Replacing the light bulbs.

Turning the control to the off position does not remove power to the light circuit.

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.

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.

Care and cleaning of the refrigerator.

Preparing for Vacation

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.
