After
installation
is completed
• Promptly inspect your new Monogram
fresh-food refrigerator. If it has been
damaged, contact the Installer or Dealer
immediately.
• This fresh-food refrigerator must be
properly leveled to ensure correct door
alignment and door closure. Contact the
Installer if the unit is not level.
• The unit should be centered in the
opening. In a standard 24″opening, the
front face of the Stainless Steel door will
be flush with adjacent cabinetry. The front
face of the Custom Panel door should
be 13⁄4″forward of adjacent cabinetry.
Contact the installer if clearance is not
correct.
• Test the door swing. Carefully open and
close the door. The door should not rub
or catch on adjacent cabinetry. Notify
the installer if the door makes contact
with cabinetry.
Please Contact the Installer or Dealer if
you experience any of these problems.
Your custom panel (ZIFI240 model only)
fresh-food refrigerator is shipped with
two toekicks, a stainless steel and a black
toekick. For shipping purposes, one of the
toekicks will be secured to the back of the
unit and the second will be installed on
the unit. Keep the unused toekick and
other unused or removed parts for possible
future use.
Remove
packaging
Before using, be sure all packing materials
and tape have been removed.
To assure no damage is done to the finish
of the product, the safest way to remove
the adhesive left from packaging tape on
new appliances is an application of
household liquid detergent. Apply with
a soft cloth and allow to soak. Wipe dry
and then apply an appliance polish to
thoroughly clean and protect the surface.

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.
wWARNING—When using this
appliance, always exercise basic safety
precautions, including the following:
•Use this appliance only for its intended
purpose as described in this Owner’s
Manual.
•This fresh-food refrigerator must be
properly installed in accordance with the
Installation Instructions before it is used.
•Do not allow children to climb, stand
or hang on the shelves in the fresh-food
refrigerator. They could damage the
fresh-food 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 door
and between the door and cabinet are
necessarily small. Be careful closing
the door when children are in the area.
•Unplug your fresh-food refrigerator
before cleaning or making repairs.
NOTE: We strongly recommend that
any servicing be performed by a qualified
individual.
•Before replacing a burned-out light bulb,
the fresh-food refrigerator should be
turned OFF or unplugged in order to
avoid contact with a live wire filament.
(A burned-out light bulb may break
when being replaced.)
wDANGER: RISK OF CHILD ENTRAPMENT
Child entrapment and suffocation
are not problems of the past. Junked or
abandoned refrigeration products are
still dangerous…even if they will sit for
“just a few days.” If you are getting rid of
your old appliance, please follow these
instructions to help prevent accidents.
Before You Throw Away Your Old
Refrigeration Product:
•Take off the doors.
•Leave the shelves in place so that children
may not easily climb inside.

à l’intérieur.
RÉFRIGÉRANTS
Tous les appareils de réfrigération
contiennent des refrigerants qui,
conformément aux lois fédérales,
doivent être enlevés avant toute
élimination de l’appareil.
Si vous vous débarrassez de vieux
appareils de réfrigération, vérifiez,
auprès de la société qui s’occupe de
leur élimination, ce que vous devez faire.

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.
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.
Use of a GFI (Ground Fault Interrupter)
is not recommended for the fresh-food
refrigerator.
The appliance 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.
DO NOT USE AN ADAPTER
PLUG TO CONNECT THE
FRESH-FOOD REFRIGERATOR
TO A 2-PRONG OUTLET.
DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION
CORD WITH THIS APPLIANCE.
Never unplug an appliance by pulling on
the power cord. Always grip the 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 appliance, be careful
not to roll over or damage the power cord.

Care and Cleaning
Fresh-Food Refrigerator
Cleaning
the inside
Unplug the fresh-food refrigerator before
cleaning. If this is not practical, turn the unit
OFF and wring excess moisture out of the
cloth or sponge when cleaning around lights
or controls.
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. Thoroughly rinse and
wipe dry.
Other parts of the fresh-food refrigerator—
including the door gaskets, vegetable pan and
glass shelves—can be cleaned the same way.
Avoid cleaning cold glass shelves with hot
water because the extreme temperature
difference may cause them to break. Handle
glass shelves carefully. Rough handling of
tempered glass can cause it to shatter.
Cleaning
the outside
Door handles and trim—Clean with a cloth
dampened with soapy water. Dry with a soft
cloth.
Keep the outside clean. Wipe with a clean
cloth lightly dampened with mild liquid dish
detergent. Dry 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 damage the finish. Do
not use scouring pads, powdered cleaners,
bleach or cleaners containing bleach because
these products can scratch and damage
the finish.
Stainless Steel—Regularly clean and polish
the stainless steel exterior and handle with a
commercially available stainless steel cleaner
such as Stainless Steel Magic™to preserve
and protect the fine finish. Stainless Steel
magic is available through GE Parts and
Accessories, 800.626.2002 or monogram.com.
Order part number WX10X15.
To avoid scratching the fine finish of the
stainless steel, wipe in the same direction
as the grain when polishing or cleaning
any stainless steel surface. The grain on
the fresh-food refrigerator door runs
top to bottom.
Do not use appliance wax or polish on the
stainless steel.
Drain hole
Periodically check the drain hole and
channel for any debris. If the drain is blocked,
condensation will not drain properly.
To check and clean the drain hole, remove
the bottom two glass shelves. Sweep a damp
cloth along the channel in the back of the
fresh-food refrigerator. Use a finger to
sweep away any debris from the
drain hole.
12
Turn the fresh-food refrigerator OFF or unplug the unit before cleaning.
Turn the fresh-food refrigerator OFF by pressing the button on the control panel
a minimum of 3 seconds until the light turns off.

Warranty
Fresh-Food Refrigerator
WHAT IS
COVERED
From the Date
of the Original
Purchase
LIMITED ONE-YEAR WARRANTY
For one year from date of original purchase, we will provide, free of charge, parts and service labor in your home
to repair or replace any part of the unit that fails because of a manufacturing defect.
LIMITED FIVE-YEAR WARRANTY
For five years from date of original purchase, we will provide, free of charge, parts and service labor in your
home to repair or replace any part of the sealed refrigerating system (the compressor, condenser, evaporator
and all connecting tubing) that fails because of a manufacturing defect.
This warranty is extended to the original purchaser and any succeeding owner for products purchased for
ordinary home use in the 48 mainland states, Hawaii, Washington, D.C. or Canada. If the product is located in
an area where service by a GE Authorized Servicer is not available, you may be responsible for a trip charge
or you may be required to bring the product to an Authorized GE Service location for service. In Alaska the
warranty is the same except that it is LIMITED because you must pay to ship the product to the service shop
or for the service technician’s travel costs to your home.
All warranty service will be provided by our Factory Service Centers or by our authorized Customer Care®
servicers during normal working hours.
Should your appliance need service, during warranty period or beyond, in the USA call 800.444.1845.
In Canada: 800.561.3344. Please have your serial number and model number available when calling for service.
Some states/provinces do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the
above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you. This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may
also have other rights which vary from state to state/province to province. To know what your legal rights are
in your state/province, consult your local or state/provincial consumer affairs office or your state’s Attorney
General.
