w~~when using this
appliance, alwaysexercise basic
safety precautions, including the
following:
.Use this appliance only for its
intended purpose as described in
this Use and Care Book.
.wrefrigerator must be
properly installed in accordance
with the Installation Instructions
before it is used. See grounding
instructions below and on page 4.
QNever unplug your refrigerator
by pulling on the power cord.
Alwaysgrip plug firmly and pull
straight out from the outlet.
●Repair or replace immediately
all electric service cords that
have become frayed or otherwise
damaged. Do not use acord that
shows cracks or abrasion damage
along its length or at either the plug
or connector end.
●When moving your refrigerator
away from the wail, be careful
not to rollover or damage the
power cord.
cAfter your refrigerator is in
operation, do not touch the cold
surfaces, particularly when hands
are damp or wet. Skin may adhere
to these extremely cold surl%ces.
●Do not place fingers or hands
on the automatic icemaking
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.
●Do not allow anyone to climb,
sit, stand or hang on the
RefreshmentCenterCompartment
door (see page 10).They could
damage the refrigerator and maybe
even tip it over, causing severe
personal injury.
●Don’t refreezefrozen f~ds
which have thawed completely.
The United States Department of
Agriculture in Home and Garden
Bulletin No. 69 says:
“... Youmay safely refreeze frozen
foods that have thawed if they still
contain ice crystals or if they are
still cold—below 40”F.
“.. .Thawed ground meats, poultry,
or fish that have any off-odor or
off-color should not be refrozen
and should not be eaten. Thawed
ice cream should be discarded. If
the odor or color of any food is
poor or questionable, get rid of it.
The food may be dangerous to eat.
“Even partial thawing and refreezing
reduce the eating quality of foods.

When disconnecting the power
cord from the adapter, alwayshold
the adapter with one hand. If this
is not done, the adapter ground
terminal is very likely to break
with repeated use.
Should the adapter ground
terminal break, DO NOT USE the
appliance until aproper ground
has again been established.
Use of Extension Cords
Because of potential safety
hazards under certain conditions,
we strongly recommend against the
use of an extension cord. However,
if you still elect to use an extension
cord, it is absolutely necessary that
it be aUL listed 3-wire grounding
type appliance extension cord having
agrounding type plug and outlet
and that the electrical rating of the
cord be 15amperes (minimum) and
120volts. Such extension cords are
obtainable through your local
service organization.
The refrigerator should always
be plugged into its own
individual electrical outlet—
(115volt, 60 Hertz, single phase
AC). This is recommended for
best performance and to prevent
overloading house wiring circuits,
which could cause afire hazard
from overheating wires.
Refrigerator Location
Donot install refrigerator where
temperature will go below 60”F.

Water Supply to Icemaker
Youwill need to connect your
icemakerto acold waterline. Awater
supply kit containing copper tubing,
shut-offvalve,fittingsandinstructions
is available at extra cost from your
dealer. There should be sufficient
tubing for the icemaker from the
cold water supply to allow you to
move the refrigerator out from the
wall several feet (approximately
3coils of l/4-inch copper tubing
that is at least 10inches in diameter).
4
Rollers
Adjustable rollers, which enable
you to move your refrigerator away
from the wall for cleaning, are
located behind the base grille.
These rollers should be set so that
the refrigerator is firmly positioned
on the floor and the front is raised
just enough that the doors close
easily when opened about halfway.
Specially designed door hinges lift
both doors slightly when opened.
The force of gravity then helps
close the door automatically.
Toadjust rollers, remove the base
grille by grasping it at the bottom
and pulling it out.
Turn roller adjusting screws
clockwise to raise refrigerator,
counterclockwise to lower it. Use
adjustable wrench (3/8” hex head
bolt) or pliers.
Whenadjusting front rollers for proper

IFREEZER CINITIAL SETTING
ECOLDEST I‘N’T’AL ‘ETT’NG 5FRESH FOOD
COLDEST 9I
Your refrigerator has two controls
that let you regulate the temperature
in the fresh food and freezer
compartments.
INITIALLY, set the FRESH
FOOD control at 5and the
FREEZER control at C.
For colder or warmer
temperatures, adjust the desired
compartment control one letter or
number at atime.
IMPORTANT
When your refrigerator is first
installed, allow 24 hours for
stabilization to normal operating
temperature before filling it with
large amounts of fresh or frozen
foods.
Note: Turning the fresh food control
to ●

compartments –fresh food AND
freezer—butdoes not shut off power
to the refrigerator.
How to Test Temperatures
Use the milk test for the fresh
fbod compartment. Place a
container of milk on the top shelf
in the fresh food compartment.
Check it aday later. If the milk is
too warm or too cold, adjust the
temperature controls.
Use the ice cream test for the
freezer compartment. Place a
container of ice cream in the center
of the freezer compartment. Check
it after aday. If it’s too hard or too
soft, adjust the temperature controls.
If you turn your
householdthermostat below
60°F. at night
. . .you may want to turn the lettered
control one step colder, as from “C”
to “D~’ Cooler temperatures in the
house may cause the compressor to
operate less frequently, thus
allowing the freezer compartment
to warm somewhat. To protect your
frozen food supply, leave your
lettered setting at this colder setting
for the entire winter or for
whatever period of time you are
turning down your thermostat, This
is especially important when the
thermostat is turned down for an
extended period.
This change should have no effect
on your fresh food compartment.
However, if freezing occurs, turn
the numbered control one step
warmer, as from “5’* to “4V
When you stop turning the
thermostat down, turn temperature
controls back to their regular
settings.

Automatic
Ene~y Saver System
You won’t find an “energy saver”
switch on this refrigerat&.
Warm liquid from the refrigerator’s
condenser is automatically
circulated around the front edge of
the freezer compartment to help
keep moisture from forming on the
outside of the refrigerator during
humid weather.
Many refrigerators use special
electric heaters. This refrigerator
needs none. That’s why there is no
“energy saver” switch. . .there’s no
need for it.
No Defrosting
It is not necessary to defrost the
freezer or fresh food compartments.
Your refrigerator is designed and
equipped to defrost itself
automatically.

The light goes out and the beeping
stops when you close the door.
There are times when you’ll want
the Door Alarm beeper turned
off. When you’re rearranging alot
of food, for example. Just touch the
pad. The green light will go out
and the beeping will stop.
Why the Red Warm
TemperatureLight Glows.
At first, it’s probably because your
newly installed refrigerator hasn’t
completely cooled down yet. Wait
afew hours for it to cool, and then
the light will go out.
From then on, the red light will
glow whenever temperatures inside
get too high for proper food storage.
If this happens, open the doors
only when absolutely necessary.
and close them as quickly as
possible.
As soon as inside tempertitures
return to normal. the light goes out.
How the Electronic
Monitor and Diagnostic
System Works.
The word NORMAL is lighted
in green except when afailure has
been detected.
Deactivating the Door Alarm
beeper does not turn the red DOOR
OPEN light off—it keeps flashing
until the door is closed.

flashes are accompanied by beeps,
If more than one coded function
requires attention at the same
time, the one with the highest
priority will be displayed first.
Pressing the SYSTEM CHECK-
RESET pad will evaluate all other
coded functions. If the NORMAL
display is lit during the displaying
of acode. that function is operating
properly.
Pressing the SYSTEM CHECK-

immediately—Pfi Cl and CC.
The DE and FFcodes can only be
erased by touching the SYSTEM
CHECK-RESET pad after the
condition that caused the code to

Ice &Chilled Water
Automatic Icemaker and
Ice &Water Dispenser
Yourrefrigerator has an automatic
icemaker and acustom dispenser
that dispenses chilled water. ice
cubes and crushed ice through the
freezer compartment door. Here’s
how they work.
Waterflows from the household
supply through a
(1)dual solenoid valve to the
(2) water reservoir and to the
(3) automatic icemaker as needed.
Wateris frozen in the
(4) cube mold and ejected into the
(5) storage bin where amotor-
powered auger moves cubes
forward into the dispensing unit.
WhenyoutouchtheCUBESpadon
front of freezer compartment door.
ice cubes will dispense through
chute in door when cradle is pressed.
When you touch the CRUSHED
pad, baffle in housing channels
cubes through the crusher and
crushed ice falls through chute into
glass when cradle is pressed.
Chilled water from reservoir flows
through the
(6) tubing in the door and is
dispensed when the cradle is
pressed.
(7) Alight switch turns the night
light in the dispenser on or off
when the LIGHT pad is touched.
Dispenser
Important Facts about
YourIce &WaterDispenser
●Youricemakerwill produce eight
cubes per cycle-approximately
120cubes in a24-hour period—
depending on freezer compartment
temperature, room temperature,
number of door openings and other
use conditions.
●Intermittent dispensing of ice is
normal. If ice flow interruption is
more than b~ef, ice clump(s) may
be the causeand shouldbe removed
following instmctions below and
on page 13.
●Avoidoverfilling glasses with
ice and using narrow or extra-tall
glasses. This can jam the chute or
cause the door in the chute to freeze
shut. Periodically open the freezer
compartment door and look down
into the chute. If ice is blocking
the chute, poke it through with
awooden spoon.
●Toheip keep bits of ice from
being sprayed beyond the glass,
place glass close to ice chute—
but not so close that it blocks
outcoming ice.
●Ice should not be dispensed into
thin glasses, fme china or delicate
crystal-they can crack or chip
from the combined pressure of your
hand pressing them against the
cradle and ice dropping into
the container.
●Ice should be dispensed before
filling glass with soda or other
beverage mixes. This will prevent
splashing which is annoying and
which, if the splash reaches the ice
and water selector switch, could
cause it to stick or bind.
●Beverages and foods should not
be quick-chilled in the ice storage
bin. Cans, bottles or food packages
in the storage bin may cause the
icemaker to malfunction.
●Ice other than that produced
by your icemaker should not be
added to the ice storage bin—it
maynotcrushordispense well.
Before Using Your
Icemaker and Dispenser
If you use your refrigerator before
the water connection is made. raise
the ice access door and make sure
the icemaker feeler arm is in the

Ice &Chilled WaterDispenser (continued)
Once YourIcemaker and
●
Dqenser Are in Operation
Throw awaythe first few batches of
ice cubes (16or 24 cubes). This
will flush away any impurities in
the water line._Do-the ;ame thing
after vacations or extended peri;ds
when ice isn’t used.
Discard the first half dozen
glassfuls of water in the kitchen
sink. This will eliminate the
slight “plastic’”taste temporarily
imparted to the water by the water
reservoir.
Keep ice level to keep icemaker
productive. Cubes ejected into an
empty storage bin will pile up close
-. . .
to the icemaker and push the feeler
arm up to the OFF position
prematurely when the bin is only
partially full. Open the ice access
door, reach in, level the cubes by
hand and ice-making will resume.
Keeping cubes distributed evenly
will allow the icemaker to produce
enough ice to fill the bin to its
maximum capacity.
Caution:
Under certain rare
circumstances, ice cubes
may be discolored, usually
appearing with agreen-bluish
hue. The cause of this unusual
discoloration is apparently due
to acombination of factors
such as certain characteristics
of local waters, household
plumbing and the accumulation
of copper salts in an inactive
water supply line which feeds
the icemaker. Continued
consumption of such discolored
ice cubes may be injurious to
health. If such discoloration is
observed, discard the ice cubes
and contactyourGenemlElectric
Factory Service Center or an
authorized Customer Care@
servicer.
ToDispense Ice and Water
●For ice, touch CUBES or
CRUSHED pad. For water, simply
position glass beneath words
“CHILLED WATER.”
●Grip glass or other container
gently near rim and press rim
firmly against ice or water
dispenser cradle.
Caution:
Never put fingers or other
objects into the ice crusher
discharge opening.

The icemaker ejects cubes in
groups of eight. and it is normal for
several cubes to be joined together.
However, infrequent usage of ice
can cause ice clumps to form in
the storage bin. resulting in

●U.S. Depaflment of Agriculture
Meats, fish and poultry purchased
from the store vary in quality and
age; consequently, safe storage
time in your refrigerator will vary.
Tostore unfrozen meats, fish and
poultry:
●Alwaysremove store wrappings.
●Rewrap in foil, film or wax paper
and refrigerate immediately.
●Carefidly wrap to expel air and
help prevent mold.
●Store pre-packaged cheese in its
own wrapping if you wish.
Tostore vegetables, use the
vegetable drawers—they’vebeen
designed to preserve the natural
moisture and freshness of produce.
●Covering vegetables with amoist
towel helps maintain crispness.
●As afi.nther aid to freshness,
pre-packaged vegetables can be
stored in their original wrapping.
Note:Specialfieshfooa’ compamnent
drawers (onmodels so equipped)
make it unnecessary to wrap certain
foods which they’vebeen designed
topreserve. These drawers are
described onpage 15.
Tostore ice cream—Fine-quality
ice cream, with high cream
content, will normally require
slightly lower temperatures than
more “airy,” already-packaged
brands with low cream content.
●It will be necessary to experiment to
determine the freezer compartment
location and temperature control
setting to keep your ice cream at
the right serving temperature.
●The mr of the freezer compartment
is slightly colder than the front.
Tips on Freezing Foods
There are three essential
requirements for efficient home
freezing.
1. Initial quality. Freeze only
top-quality foods. Freezing retains
quality and flavor; it cannot
improve quality.
2. Speed. The quicker fruits and
vegetables are frozen afier picking,
the better the frozen product will
be. You’llsave time, too, with less
culling and sorting to do.
3. Proper packaging. Use food
wraps designed especially for
freezing.
14
rI
Tofreeze meat, fish and poultry,
wrap well in freezer-weight foil (or
other heavy-duty wrapping material),
forming it carefully to the shape of
the contents. This expels air. Fold
and crimp ends of the package to
provide agood, lasting seal.
Don’t refreeze meat that has
completely thawed; meat, whether
raw or cooked, can be frozen
successfully only once.
Limit freezing of fresh (unfrozen)
meats or seafoods to 29 pounds at
atime.
For Convenience...
●Store all like things together. This
not only saves time, but electricity—
because you can find foods faster.
.Place the oldest items up front so
they can be used up promptly.
●Use the roomy Ports-Bins on
the door for most frequently used
foods and beverages.
●Use the meat drawer for meats
you do not freeze.
To Save Money in Energy
and Food Costs
●Place most perishable items such
as milk. cream or cottage cheese in
the coldest part of the refri,gerator—
in aPorts-Bin on the door in line
with one of the air ducts through
which cold air from the freezer
enters the fresh food compartment.
●Cover moist foods with tight lids,
plastic film or foil.
●Leaf vegetables and fruits placed
in storage drawers will last longer
stored in closed plastic containers
or wrapped in plastic film.
●Do not overload your fresh food
or freezer compartment with alot
of warm food at once.
●Open the doors the fewest times
possible to save electrical energy.
cWhen going out of town for
several days. leave as few perishables
as possible in the refrigerator. Set
the icemaker to the “OFF’” position
and shut off water to the refrigerator.

Electronic monitor and
diagnostic system panels. Clean
the panels on the outside and inside
of the freezer compartment door
with asoft, clean cloth lightly
dampened with water. Do not use
cleaning sprays or large amounts of
water—theliquid can run down and
damage the control mechanisms.
The water and ice dispenser
spill shelf should be wiped dry
immediately to prevent spotting.
Water left on the shelf may leave
deposits that you can remove by
soaking in undiluted vinegar.
You can also use apaste of
