ADANGER!RISK OFCHILDENTRAPMENT
PROPERDISPOSALOFTHEREFRIGERATOR
Child entrapment and sttffo_ation are not problems
of the pasL Junked or abandoned refrigerators are
still dangerous...even if they will sit for _jttst a few
days." ffyou are getting rid of your old refrigerator,
ple&se follow the itxstrucdons below to help prevent
accidents.
BeforeYouThrowAway YourOldRefrigerator
or Freezer.
st Take offthe doors.
st Leave the shek, t_ in place so star children may
not tya.sllyclimb inside.
CFCDisposal
Your old refrig'erator may have a cooling ,systmn
that ttsed CFCs (chlorofluorocarbons). CFC*are
believed to harm stratospheric ozone.
Ify(m are throwing away your old refrigerator, make
sure the CFC refrigerant ksremoved for proper
disposal by a qualified servicer. If you intentionally
relemse this CFC refrigerant yon can be subject to
fraes mad imprisonment uuder proxf.sionsof
emqronmental legislation.
USEOFEXTENSIONCORDS
Because of potentialsafetyhazardsundercertainconditions,we stJ'onglyrecommendagainstthe 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.

AWARNING!
HOWTOCONNECTELECTRICITY
Do not,underany circumstances,cut orremove the third (ground)prongfromthe power cord.For
personalsafe_, this appliancemustbe properly grounded.
The power cord cffthis 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.
USEOFADAPTERPLUGS(Adapterplugsnot 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.

INSTALLING THE WATER LINE (ON SOME MODELS)
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
Recommended copper vrater supply kits are WX8X2,
_X8X3 or WX8X4, depending on the amount of tubing
you need. Approved plastic tater supply lines are GE
SmartConnect TM Refrigerator Tubing 0NX08Xl0002,
WX08Xl0006, V_08X10015 and W,rX08X10025).
xv_qcm connecting your refiigerator to a GE Reverse
Osmosis Water System, the only approved installation ks
with a GE RVKit. For other reverse osmosis water systems,
fnllow the marmfactnrer's recommendations.
If the water supply to the refrigerator is f_rom a Reverse
Osmosis Water Filtration System AND the refrigerator
also has a vrater filter, use the refi'igerator's filter bypass
plug. Using the refrigerator's water filtration cartridge
in conjunction with the RO filter can result in hollow
ice cubes and slower water flow from the water
dispenser.
This water line installation ks not warranted by the
refrigerator or icemaker mamffacmrer. Follow these
instructions carefully to minimize the risk of expensive
water danlage.
"Nater haanmer (water banging in the pipes) in house
phunbing can cause damage to refrigerator parts and
lead to vrater leakage or flooding. Call a qualified
plmnbcr to correct -€ater hammer before installing the
water supply line to the refrigerator.
To prevent burns and product damage, do not hook
up the water line to the hot water llne.
If you use your reli'igerator before connecting the
water line, make sure the icemaker power switch is in
the 0 (off) position.
Do not install the icemaker tubing in areas where
temperanlres fall below freezing.
When using may electrical device (such as a power
drill) during installation, be sure the dc.wice is double
insulated or grounded in a manner to prevent the
hazard of electric shock, or is battery powered.
All installations must be in accordance with local
plumbing code requirements.
WHAT YOU WILL NEED
•Copper or GE SmartConnect TM Refrigerator Tubing
kit, 1/4" onter diameter to connect the refi'igerator
to the water supply. If using copper, be sure bnth
ends of the tubing are cut square.
To detemfine how much tubing you need: measure
die distance from the v,Ttter valve on the back of the
refrigerator to the water supply pipe. Then add 8'
(2.4 m). Be sure there ks sufficient extra tubing (about
8' [2.4 m] culled into 3turns ofabtmt 10" [25 cm]
diameter) to allot,- the refrigerator to move out from
the wall after installation.

[] CHOOSE THE VALVE LOCATION
Choose a location for the salve that is easily
accessible. It is best to connect into the side of a
vertical water pipe. When it is necegsary to connect
hlto a horizontal _vater pipe, make the connection
to the top or side, rather than at the bottom,
to avoid drawing off any sediment from the
water pipe.
[] DRILL THE HOLE FOR THE VALVE
Drill a 1/4" hole in the water pipe (even if using a
self-piercing yah'e), using a sharp biL Remove any
burrs resulting from drilling the hole in the pipe.
