the following:

• Use this appliance only for its intended purpose as

described in this Use and Care Guide.

• This refrigerator must be properly installed

and located in accordance with the

Installation Instructions before it is used.

WARNING—Connect to potable water

• Never unplug your refrigerator by pulling on the

• Repair or replace immediately all electric service

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 the plug or

appliance end.

• When moving your appliance away from the wall, be

careful not to roll over or damage the power cord.

• Do not allow children to climb, stand or hang on the

shelves in the refrigerator. They could damage the

refrigerator and seriously injure themselves.

• If your old refrigerator is still around the

house but not in use, be sure to remove the

doors. This will reduce the possibility of danger

to children.

• 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 place fingers or hands on the automatic ice-

making mechanism while the refrigerator is plugged

in. This will prevent contact with the moving parts of the

ejector mechanism, or with the heating element that

releases the cubes.

Refreshment Center Compartment door. They could

damage the refrigerator and maybe even tip it over,

causing severe personal injury.

• 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, unplug the

refrigerator or turn off power at the circuit breaker or

fuse box in order to avoid contact with a live wire

filament. (A burned-out light bulb may break when

being replaced.) NOTE: Turning control to

“”

position does not remove power to the light circuit.

• Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable

vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other

appliance.

Mains lead replacement

If the mains lead on your refrigerator needs replacing at

any time, it must be replaced by a special lead which is

The drain hole in my fridge-freezer is dirty/clogged, how do I clean it? Verified

How often should I defrost my freezer? Verified

For optimal use of the freezer it is best to defrost it once every 3-6 months. Ice on the inside of the freezer reduces the available space and increases the use of energy. The thawing process can be accelerated by placing hot water in the drawer or placing bowls of hot water in the freezer.

I bought a new fridge-freezer, can I turn it on immediately? Verified

No, the fridge-freezer needs to stand in an upright position for at least 4 hours before it can be turned on. This is because the coolant liquid needs to settle.

Is it normal that water or ice drops are forming on the back wall of my fridge-freezer? Verified

Yes, this a completely normal phenomenom. The moisture that enters the fridge-freezer with warm air or products will settle on the coldest part, being the back wall. Because the back wall can reach temperatures below freezing, the drops will freeze from time to time. When the fridge-freezer is idle the drops will thaw and flow to the drain of the fridge-freezer.

How long does it take for my refrigerator to reach the set temperature after I turn it on? Verified

This depends on the size, age and model of the refrigerator. It may take several hours to 24 hours for the refrigerator to reach the set temperature. The process can be accelerated by placing non-perishable goods in the refrigerator. The temperature in the refrigerator cannot be measured properly by feeling the air inside. The best way to tell if the refrigerator has reached the set temperature is to place a glass of water in the refrigerator with a thermometer in it.

There is condensation in my refrigerator, why is that? Verified

There can be several causes. The door gasket can be defective, allowing outside air into the refrigerator. It's also possible that the refrigerator is not level, preventing the door from closing correctly. Another cause is a large difference between the temperature inside the refrigerator and outside while the door is being opened frequently.

There is mold on the rubber seals of my fridge-freezer, what should I do? Verified

The rubber seals are not actually inside the fridge-freezer and are therefore warmer. This allows bacteria to grow and mold to form. Clean the rubbers regularly to prevent this.

Can I put warm food or drinks in my fridge-freezer? Verified

Preferably not. The temperature in your fridge-freezer will rise, which negatively impacts the other items that are stored inside.

Can my GE appliance also run on a generator? Verified

In general this is possible, but always check this with the manufacturer of your generator. Also be aware that some appliances require a lot of power when starting up (ie: refrigerators, freezers and air conditioners). It's also a good idea to use a generator that is voltage regulated and surge protected. When in doubt you should contact the manufacturer.
