Installation Instructions

INSTALLING THE REFRIGERATOR

REFRIGERATOR LOCATION

•Do not install the refrigerator where the temperature will go below 60°F (16°C) because it will not run often enough to maintain proper temperatures.

•Do not install the refrigerator where the temperature will go above 100°F (37°C) because it will not perform properly.

•Install it on a floor strong enough to support it fully loaded.

CLEARANCES

Allow the following clearances for ease of installation, proper air circulation and plumbing and electrical connections.

Sides

1/8″ (4 mm)

Top

1″ (25 mm)

Back

1″ (25 mm)

REMOVE TOP CAP (on some models)

•IMPORTANT NOTE: This refrigerator is 34-1/2″deep.

Doors and passageways leading to the installation location must be at least 36″ wide in order to leave the doors and handles attached to the

refrigerator while transporting it into the installation location. If passageways are less than 36″, the refrigerator doors and handles can easily be scratched and damaged. The top cap and doors can be removed to allow the refrigerator to be safely moved indoors. Start with Step A.

•If it is not necessary to remove doors, skip Step A. Leave tape and all packaging on doors until the refrigerator is in the final location.

•SKID REMOVAL: Tilt refrigerator to each side to remove skid.

•NOTE: Use a padded hand truck to move this refrigerator. Place the refrigerator on the hand truck with a side against the truck. We strongly recommend that TWO PEOPLE move and complete this installation.

ALocate and remove the two Phillips head screws on the top of the refrigerator. Remove the two screws on each side at the rear of the top cap. Lift off and remove top cap.

BRemove the fresh-food door. Refer to Steps 1 through 3 of “Reversing the Door Swing” section.

CRemove the bottom freezer drawer. Refer to “Removing Freezer Drawer” section.

DMove refrigerator to the installation location.

REMOVE TOP CAP (cont.) (on some models)

REINSTALL DOORS, DRAWERS AND TOP CAP

ECarefully lower the door onto the center hinge. Reinstall top hinge. NOTE: Ensure the door is properly aligned to the case top to avoid readjustment of the door during top cap reinstallation.

FPlace cap over the top of the refrigerator. Reinstall the original screws in the top and back of the cap.

GReinstall the bottom freezer drawer. Refer to “Replacing the Freezer Drawer” section.

1CONNECTING THE REFRIGERATOR TO THE HOUSE WATER LINE

(icemaker and dispenser models)

A cold water supply is required for automatic icemaker operation. If there is not a cold water supply, you will need to provide one. See Installing the Water Line section.

NOTES:

•Before making the connection to the refrigerator, be sure the refrigerator power cord is not plugged into the wall outlet.

•If your refrigerator does not have a water filter, we recommend installing one if your water supply has sand or particles that could clog the screen of the refrigerator’s water valve. Install it in the water line near the refrigerator. If using GE SmartConnect™ Refrigerator Tubing Kit, you will need an additional tube (WX08X10002) to connect the filter. Do not cut plastic tube to install filter.
