Mechanism

Important facts about your ice

& water dispenser

• Do not add ice from trays or bags to the storage bin. It may not crush or dispense well.

• Avoid overfilling glass with ice and use of narrow or extra-tall glasses. Backed-up ice can jam the chute or cause the door in the chute to freeze shut. If ice is blocking the chute, push it through with a wooden spoon.

• Beverages and foods should not be quickchilled in the ice storage bin. Cans, bottles or food packages in the storage bin may cause the icemaker or auger to jam.

• To keep dispensed ice from missing the glass, put the glass close to, but not touching, the dispenser opening.

• Some crushed ice may be dispensed even though you selected CUBES. This happens occasionally when a few cubes accidentally get directed to the crusher.

• After crushed ice is dispensed, some water may drip from the chute as small particles of ice melt.

• Sometimes a mound of ice chips will form on the door in the ice chute. This condition is normal and usually occurs when you have dispensed crushed ice repeatedly. The ice chips will eventually evaporate.

• Dispensed water is not ice cold. For colder water, simply add crushed ice or cubes before dispensing water.

• The first glass of water dispensed may be warmer than the following ones. This is normal.

• To eliminate drips on the spill shelf, tilt the glass in slightly when dispensing water.

Automatic icemaker

Automatic Icemaker

Built-In Refrigerators

CAUTION

Avoid contact with the moving parts of the ejector mechanism, or with the heating element (located on the bottom of the ice maker) that releases the cubes. Do not place fingers or hands on the automatic ice making mechanism while the refrigerator is plugged in.

MISE EN GARDE

Évitez tout contact avec les pièces mobiles du mécanisme d’éjection ou l’élément chauffant (situé dans le bas de la machine à glaçons) qui libère les cubes. Ne placez pas les doigts ou les mains sur le mécanisme de production de glace automatique lorsque le réfrigérateur est branché dans la prise électrique.

A newly-installed refrigerator may take 12–24 hours to begin making ice.

The icemaker will produce seven cubes per cycle—approximately 15 cycles in a 24-hour period, depending on freezer compartment temperature, room temperature, number of door openings and other use conditions.

If the refrigerator is operated before the water connection is made to the icemaker, set the power switch to OFF.

Icemaker

Power

Switch

Feeler Arm

When the refrigerator has been connected to the water supply, set the power switch to ON.

Throw away the first full bucket of ice.

Be sure nothing interferes with the sweep of the feeler arm.

When the bin fills to the level of the feeler arm, the icemaker will stop producing ice.

It is normal for several cubes to be joined together.

If ice is not used frequently, old ice cubes will become cloudy, taste stale and shrink.

NOTE: Icemaker works best between 40 and 120

PSI home water pressure.

Climate

Control drawer

Climate Control Drawer

Built-In Refrigerators

How it Works

The Climate Control feature is a system of dampers, a fan, a temperature thermistor, and a heater. The Climate Control drawer can be used to chill items quickly, thaw foods quickly or store items at their optimum temperatures.

The drawer is tightly sealed to prevent the drawer’s temperature from causing temperature fluctuations in the rest of the refrigerator.

SELECT TEMP—Use this feature to store items at their optimum temperatures. The CITRUS setting will maintain a drawer temperature of

39–47°F by cycling a small heater off and on as needed. The PRODUCE setting will maintain the drawer temperature at 31–38°F by drawing in additional cold air as needed. The MEAT setting will maintain the drawer temperature at 27–37°F by drawing in additional cold air as needed.

EXPRESS CHILL—This feature can be used to cool items in minutes, rather than hours.

Extra cool air is circulated throughout the drawer. Once the cycle is complete, the drawer will revert to the pre-set fresh food temperature.

EXPRESS THAW—This feature thaws items in hours rather than days. Food is gently thawed in a cool environment by circulating air throughout the drawer. Temperature is maintained in the drawer by cycling a small heater off and on as needed. Once the thaw cycle is complete, the pan will automatically adjust to a temperature of 27–37°F to store the food at its optimum temperature.

NOTE: By turning the controls on the Climate

Control drawer off, the drawer can be used as a standard sealed produce pan.

How to Use

1 Empty the drawer. Place the items in the drawer.

Select the Express Thaw,™ Express Chill™ or Select Temp™ pad. The display will come on. Press the pad until the light appears next to the desired setting. Use the chart on the next page to determine the best setting.

To stop a feature before it is finished, press that feature’s pad until no options are selected and the display is off.

During Express Thaw™ and Express Chill,™ the display on the controls will count down the time remaining in the cycle.

After the Express Thaw™ cycle is complete, the drawer will reset to the MEAT setting

(27–37°F) to help preserve thawed items until they are used.

The displayed actual temperature of the Climate Control drawer may vary slightly from the SET temperature based on usage and operation environment.

NOTE: For food safety reasons, it is recommended that foods be wrapped in plastic wrap when using Express Thaw.™

This will help contain meat juices and improve thawing performance.

Sabbath

Mode

Product Kit

(available at extra cost)

The Sabbath Mode Product Kit was designed for use on the Jewish Sabbath and Holidays.

The Sabbath Mode feature makes it possible for observant Jews to refrigerate and freeze food during the duration of the holiday.

The Sabbath Mode feature can be set to override typical reactions to actions in your refrigerator.

While in the Sabbath Mode, your refrigerator will still operate normally. However, the refrigerator will not respond to your actions.

While in the Sabbath Mode, you may notice the fan running when the door is opened; however, this is not a result of your actions. The fan will operate at random times. The defrost heater will continue to defrost the refrigerator and freezer and will be activated on a timer. The defrost heater will not defrost as a result of door openings or any consumer actions.

ON/OFF—To activate, raise the top grille panel and set the Sabbath Mode switch to the ON position. A green LED light will be visible below the Sabbath Mode Kit switch. The light will be visible when the grille is closed between the grille door and compartment doors.

DISPLAYS, ALARMS and LIGHTS—The main temperature control and Express Chill displays will be deactivated; therefore they will not be lit, sound a tone or operate when touched. Door alarms and lights will be disabled.

ICE and WATER DISPENSER—The proximity sensor and dispenser touch sensor icons will not operate. Ice or water cannot be retrieved from the dispenser.

ICEMAKER—The icemaker will continue to operate. The icemaker can be disabled by opening the freezer, opening the ice storage bin door and setting the icemaker power switch to the OFF position (see Automatic Icemaker). To obtain ice, open the freezer door and remove the cubed ice from the ice bin.

This Sabbath Mode Product Kit can be purchased from your local appliance dealer. The ZSAB1 Kit is designed for use with all Monogram Built-In Sideby-Side Refrigerators manufactured after 2008.

To locate your nearest dealer, visit our web site monogram.com or call 1.800.626.2000. In Canada, call 1.800.561.3344. Order Kit # ZSAB1.

NOTE: The Sabbath Mode Product Kit must be installed by a qualified service technician.

Care and Cleaning

Built-In Refrigerators

The dispenser spill shelf and the area beneath

it should be cleaned periodically with a mild liquid dish detergent.

Dispenser cradle—Before cleaning, lock the dispenser by touching CONTROL LOCK for

3 seconds to prevent activating the dispenser.

Clean with warm water and a mild liquid dish detergent. Rinse thoroughly and wipe dry. Unlock the dispenser by touching CONTROL LOCK for 3 seconds.

Do not use chemical cleaners to clean the dispenser or any part of the dispenser.

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 door panels and handles (on some models) with a commercially available stainless steel cleaner such as Stainless Steel Magic™ to preserve and protect the fine finish. Stainless

Steel Magic

and the Monogram polishing cloth are available through GE Parts and Accessories,

800.626.2002, or monogram.com. For Stainless

Steel Magic

, order part number WX10X15. For

Monogram polishing cloth, order part number

WX72X10001.

Do not use appliance wax or polish on the stainless steel.

To help prevent odors. leave an open box of baking soda in the unit.

Turn off power at the circuit breaker or fuse box before

cleaning. If this is not practical, wring excess moisture out of sponge or cloth when cleaning around switches, 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 refrigerator—including door gaskets, meat and vegetable drawers, ice storage bin and all plastic parts—can be cleaned the same way. After cleaning the door gaskets, apply a thin layer of petroleum jelly to the door gaskets sealing surface on the hinge side.

This helps keep the gaskets from sticking and bending out of shape.

Do not wash any plastic refrigerator parts in the dishwasher.

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.

NOTE: Interior lights may get too hot and turn off automatically if the refrigerator door is left open too long. This is normal and they will turn back on when they cool down.

Light bulb replacement

CAUTION

Halogen lights generate intense heat. Be certain power is off and lamps have sufficient time to cool before attempting to replace.

Power to the lamps can be turned off at the Master Light switch located behind the grille panel at the top of the refrigerator.

There is a switch for the freezer and a switch for the fresh food compartment.

Turning the temperature control to OFF does NOT remove power to the light circuits.

MISE EN GARDE

Les ampoules halogènes produisent une chaleur intense. Assurez-vous de bien couper le courant et de laisser suffisamment de temps aux ampoules pour leur permettre de se refroidir avant d’essayer de les remplacer.

Vous pouvez couper le courant en utilisant le commutateur de lumière principale situé derrière le panneau grillagé en haut du réfrigérateur. Il y a un commutateur pour le compartiment congélateur et un commutateur pour le compartiment réfrigérateur.

Vous NE COUPEZ PAS l’alimentation électrique du réfrigérateur des circuits de lumières en mettant le bouton de contrôle de température en position OFF (arrêt).

The refrigerator uses a halogen bulb:

The columns along the back wall of the fresh food and freezer compartments are lit up by lamps located behind the top pan in the fresh food compartment and the bottom basket in the freezer compartment.

These bulbs have a life expectancy of about 2000 hours. However, if the bulbs do need to be replaced, they can be purchased at hardware, general retail and home improvement stores or through

GE Parts and Accessories, 800.626.2002.

The Problem Solver

Built-In Refrigerators

PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE

REFRIGERATOR • May be in defrost cycle when compressor does not operate for about

30 minutes.

MOTOR OPERATES

FOR LONG PERIODS

• The new variable speed compressor is designed to run for longer periods of time to optimize efficiency and noise. You may notice

the compressor and/or fan speeds accelerate based upon door

(Modern refrigerators with more storage space and a larger freezer require more operating time.

They start and stop often to maintain even temperatures.)

• Temperature control set at OFF.

• If interior light is not on, refrigerator may not be plugged in at

wall outlet.

• The fuse is blown/circuit breaker is tripped. Replace fuse or reset

the breaker.

• The Sabbath Mode Kit may be installed and operating. Turn off

the Sabbath Mode device.

• Normal when refrigerator is first plugged in. Wait 24 hours for

openings and/or increased food loads.

• You may hear the fans spinning at high speeds. This happens when

the refrigerator is first plugged in, when the doors are opened

frequently or when a large amount of food is added to the

refrigerator or freezer compartments. The fans are helping to

maintain the correct temperatures.

• Door left open or package holding door open.

• If either door is open for over 3 minutes, you may hear the fans come on in order to cool the light.

• Hot weather or frequent door openings. This is normal.

OPERATING

SOUNDS

• Temperature controls set at the coldest setting. See Temperature

Controls

.

• The variable speed compressor changes speeds and sounds

may vary.

• Normal fan air flow—one fan blows cold air through the

fresh food and freezer compartments—another fan cools the compressor motor.

• The fans change speeds in order to provide optimal cooling and energy savings.

• These NORMAL sounds will also be heard from time to time:

– You may hear a whooshing or gurgling sound when the doors close.

This is due to pressure equalizing within the refrigerator.

– A water dripping noise may occur during the defrost cycle as ice melts from the evaporator and flows into the drain pan.

– The flow of refrigerant through the freezer cooling coils may make a gurgling noise like boiling water.

– Water dropping on the defrost heater can cause a sizzling, popping or buzzing sound during the defrost cycle.

– You may hear cracking or popping sounds when the refrigerator is first plugged in or during/after the defrost cycle. This happens as the refrigerator cools to the correct temperature.

– Electronic dampers click open and closed to provide optimal cooling and energy savings.

– The compressor may cause a clicking or chirping sound when attempting to restart (this could take up to 5 minutes).

– The electronic control board may cause a clicking sound when relays activate to control refrigerator components.

– Ice cubes dropping into the bin and water running in pipes as icemaker refills.

– The icemaker water valve will buzz when the icemaker fills with water.
