Sabbath Mode/Care and Cleaning
Cleaning 
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/freezer 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.
Cleaning 
inside
To help prevent odors, leave an 
open box of baking soda in the 
refrigerator/freezer.
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/freezer— 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. 
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.
Do not wash any plastic refrigerator/freezer parts 
in the dishwasher.

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 grillepanel 
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 displays will be deactivated; 
therefore they will not be lit, sound a tone or 
operate when touched. Door alarms and lights 
will be disabled.
ICEMAKER—The icemaker will continue to 
operate. The icemaker can be disabled by 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.
