Ambient Temperature Limits - GE GSMF2LEB Manual

Ambient temperature limits

This refrigerator is designed to operate in ambient temperatures
specified by its Temperature Class, which is marked on the
rating plate.
NOTE: Internal temperature may be affected by such factors as
the location of the refrigerator, ambient temperature and
frequency of door openings. Adjust temperature controls to
compensate for these factors.

How it Works
TurboCool™ rapidly cools the refrigerator
compartment in order to more quickly cool foods.
use TurboCool™ when adding a large amount
of food to the refrigeartor compartment, putting
away foods after they have been stting 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 compresor will turn on immediately
and the fans will cycle on and off at high speed as
needed for eight hours. The compressor will
continue to run until the refrigerator compartment
cools to approximately 1˚C (34˚F), 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 it Works
The ClimateKeeper2™ is the industry's most
advanced refrigeration system, delivering optimum
temperature and humidity performance to keep
food garden fresh longer and reduce freezer burn,
while maintaining E star-level. efficiency. The
ClimateKeeper2™ system features two evaporators,
one for the refrigerator and one for the freezer.
This provides two separate cooling systems, and
separates the airflow between the fresh food and
freezer compartments during normal cooling
operations. * This ensures that the humidity levels in
the fresh food compartment are significantly higher
than in a conventional system, **allowing fresh
produce and other unsealed foods to retain their
moisture content and freshness longer. Moisture
sensitive foods such as fresh fruit, salads, rice, etc.,
can now be stored on open shelves without excessive
moisture loss. Due to the higher humidity in the
refrigerator, you may on occasion experience fog or

Press TurboCool. The refrigerator temperature
display will show TC.
After TurboCool is complete, the refrigeartor
compartment will return to the original
setting.
NOTES:
The refrigeartor temperature cannot be changed
during TurboCool.
When opening the refrigerator door during
TurboCool, the fans will continue to run if they
have cycled on.
small amounts of moisture in the refrigerator
compartment. This is normal and may come and go
as different food loads and enviromental conditions
change. Wipe dry with a paper towel if desired.
The separate airflow system minimizes the mixing of
air between the two compartments, whict reduces
fresh food odor transfer to improve the taste of ice.
The ClimateKeeper2™ system also reduces the
number of defrosting cycles in the freezer evaporator,
thereby reducing freezer burn.
*Freezer air is used in the CustomCool™ feature.
** Testing shows a higher level of humidity in the
Fresh Food section in ClimateKeeper2™
refrigerators versus conventional units.
