Where a standard 2-prong wall outlet is
encountered, it isyour personal responsibility
and obligation to haveit replacedwith (]
properly grounded :3-prongwall outlet.
Therefrigerator shouldalways be plugged into
its own individual electrical outlet which has
(]voltage rating that matches the rating plate.
Thisprovidesthe best performance and also
prevents overloading housewiring circuitswhich
could cause a fire hazard from overheated wires.
Never unplug your refrigerator by pulling

Operating Instructions
Stainless Steel Refrigerator
Temperature
controls ®
®FREEZER REFRIGERATOR
The temperature controls are preset in the factory at 37°F
for the fresh food compartment and O°F for 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 fresh food and freezer
compartments. The actual temperature may vary slightly
from the SET temperature based on usage and operating
environment.
Setting either or both controls to OFF stops cooling in both
the freezer and fresh food compartments but does not shut
off electrical power to the refrigerator.
NOTE: The refrigerator is shipped with protective film covering
the temperature controls. #this film was not removed during
installation, remove it now.
To chenge the temperature, press and release
the k_(warmer)or k_ (colder) pad. The SETlight
will come on and the
displag will show the set temperature. To change
the temperature, tap either the (_ (warmer) or
(_ (colder) pad until the
desired temperature isdisplaged. Fresh food
temperatures can be adjusted between 34°F
and 44°Fand the freezer temperatures can be
adjusted between -6% and +6°F.
Once the desired temperature has been
set, the temperature displag will return to
the actual fresh food and freezer temperatures
after 5 seconds. Several adjustments mag
be required. Each time gou adjust controls,
allow 2/4hours for the refrigerator to reach
the temperature gou have set.
Toturn the cooling system off, tap
the @ (warmer) pad for either the fresh food
compartment or the freezer until the
display shows OFF.To turn the unit beck on,
press
the @ (colder) pad for either the fresh food
compartment or freezer. The SETlight will
illuminate on the side you selected. Then press
the @ (colder) pad again (on the side where
the SETlight is illuminated) and it will go
to
the preset points of O°Ffor the freezer and 37°F
for the fresh food compartment.
Performance
Air Flow
System
The Performance Air-Flow Sgstem isdesigned to
maximize temperature control in the fresh food
and freezer compartments. This unique special
feature consists of the Air Tower along the top
and back walls of the fresh food compartment
and the Air Tunnel 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 instructions, on-line,
24 hours a dag, contact us at GEAppliances.com
or call 800.444.1845. InCanada, call us at
1.800.561.3344.)

TURBO •the refrigerator compartment in
order to more quickly cool foods.
Use TurboCool when adding
a large amount of food to the refrigerator
compartment, putting away foods after they
have been sitting out at room temperature
or when putting away warm leftovers. It can
also be used if the refrigerator has been
without power for an extended period.
Once activated, the compressor will turn on
immediately and the fans will cycle on and
off at high speed as needed for 8 hours.
The compressor will continue to run until
the refrigerator comportment cools to
approximately 34°F (1°C), then it will cycle
on and off to maintain this setting. After
8 hours, or if TURBOCOOL is pressed again,
the refrigerator compartment will return
to the original setting.
How to use
TurboCool 1 Press TURBOCOOL The refrigerator
temperature display will show TC.
2 After TurboCool is complete,
the refrigerator compartment
will return to the original setting.
NOTES:
•Therefrigerator temperature cannot
be changed during TurboCool.
• Thefreezer temperature is not affected during
TurboCool.
• When opening the refrigerator door during
TurboCool, the fans will continue to run if
they have cycled on.
Door Alarm The door alarm will sound
if either door isopen for more than
2 minutes. The beeping sound will
