ty In refrigerators with atztomafic icemakc_rs,
avoid contact with the moving parts eft the
ejector mechanism, or with the heating element
located on the bottom of the icemaker. Do not
place fingers or hands on the automatic
icemaking mechanism while the rtyvigerator
is plugged in.

USEOFEXTENSION
CORDS
Because of potentialsafetyhazardsunder certainconditions,we stJ'ongly
recommendagainstthe use
of an extension cord.
Hov,xocer, if you must use an extension cord, it is absolutely necessary that it be a L_-listed (in the United
States) or a C,SA-listed (in Canada), 3-wire grotrading type appliance extension cord having a grounding
type plug and outlet mad dxat the electrical rating of the cord be 15 amperes (mininram)
mad 120 volts.

A WARNING!
HOWTOCONNECT
ELECTRICITY
Do not,underany circumstances,cut or remove the third (ground)prongfrom the power cord. For
personalsafe_, this appliancemustbe properly grounded.
The power cord cff this appliance is equipped
with a _prong (gmtmding)
plug which mates
with a standard 3-prong (grounding)
wall outlet
to minimize the possibility of electric shock hazard
from this appliance.
Have the v-an outlet and circuit checked by a
qualified electrician to nmke sure the oudet is
properly" grounded.
If the outlet is a standard 2-prong outlet, it is your
personal responsibility and obligation to have it
replaced with a properly grounded 3--prong _mll
outlet.
The refrigerator should always be plugged into its
own individual electrical oudet wtlich h_ a voltage
rating that matches the rating plate.

This provides the best performance
and also
pro,'en ts overloading hoose wiring circuits whidx
could cause a fire hazard from overheated wires.
Never tmplug your retiigemtor by pulling on the
power cord. Alvws grip phkg firmly and Dill straight
out from the ontieL
Repair or replace immediately all lxr_er cords that
have become frayed or othevwi,se damaged. Do not
use a cord that show cracks or abrasion damage
along its length or at either end.
V_nen mo-,iug the refrigerator away from the
wall, be carefifl not to roll over or damage the
power cord.

USEOFADAPTER
PLUGS
(Adapter
plugsnot permitted in Canada)
Because of potential safe_ 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 t_apo_F comw_ianmay
be made
to a properly grounded 2-prong wan ontlet by u_
of a UL-listed adapter available at most local
lxarchcare stores,
The larger flot 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 pnlling the power cord plug with the
other hand. ff this is not done, the adapter ground
terminal is very likely to break with repeated use.

If the adapter ground terminal breaks, DO NOT
OSEthe refrigerat_r until a proper ground has
been established.

About the temperaturecontrols.

The temperature controls are preset in the factory at 37°1: for the
refrigerator compartment and O°Ffor the freezer compartment. Allow
24 hours for the temperature to stabilize to the preset recommended
settings.
The temperature controls can display both the SET temperature
as well as the actual temperature in the refrigerator and freezer.
The actual temperature may vary slightly from the SET temperature
based on usage and operating environment.

Setting either orboth controlsto OFFstops coolingin both the freezer
and refrigerator compartments, but does not shutoff electrical power
to the refrigerator.
NOTE: The refrigerator is shipped with protective film covering the
temperature controls. If this film was not removed during installation,
remove it now.

TochatPge _ tem_tature, press and release the
WARMER or COI.tiERpad. The SETlight will come
on and the dLsplay will show the set temperatme,.
To chmlge the tempe, retiree, tap either the
WARMERor COLDERpad mltil the desired
temperature is displayed. Refrigerator temperatures
can be adjusted between _°I." and 44°F mid the
freezer tranperatur¢_, can be adjusted between
--6_F and +6°E
Once the desined temperature
has been set,
the temperature disphy will return to the actual
refrigerator and freezer temperatures ",d_er5
seconds. S¢.weral adjustments may be ix'quired.
Each time you adjust controls, all_v24 hours for the
rt_'rigerator to reach the temperatra'e you have set.

Toturn the cooling systemoff, tap the WARMER pad
for either the refrigerator or the freezer until the
ff_play shows 0/:E. To tam the _it back on, press the

The SETlight will ilkuninate on file side you

Performance
Air FlowSystem
The Performance Air-Flow System is designed to
maximize temperattu:e control in the refiigerator
and freezer compartments. This tmiq_te special
feature cousists of the Air Tower along the back
wall of the refrigerator and the Air Tnnnel on the
bottom portion of the freezer rear wall. Placing food
in front of the louvers on these components will not

affect performance. Although the Air Tower and
the Air Tunnel can be removed, doing so will affect
temperature performance. (For removal
instrtmfious, on-line, 94 hours a day, contact us at
GEAppliances.com or call 800.GE.CARES. In

dispense well.
Avoid m_rfilling gla_g with ice and use of
nanx_w gl,x_ses. Backed-up ice canjmn the
chute or cattge the door in the chnte to
freeze shut. ffice is bkmking the chute,
poke it through _th a _xxxlen spoon_
_ Beverages and foods should not be
quick-chilled in the ice storage drawer.
Cans, bottles or food packages in the
storage drawer may cause the icemaker
or attger to jam.

Some crashed ice may be dispensed
