QuestionWat does frost guard feature on this refridgerator mean
Asked 8 years ago by Pam.
- Answer Hi Pam- We are excited to hear of your interest in our GE Refrigerators! Frost Guard or Adaptive Defrost means that the refrigerator will only defrost as needed. It accounts for door openings and usage to determine when it is necessary to defrost and how long the defrost cycle needs to run. If the refrigerator is not being frequently used (ex. family on vacation), it will not defrost as often. It also utilizes a "Pre-Chill" function to lower the freezer temperature prior to the defrost cycle. This lowering of freezer temperature allows the freezer to return to its set temperature point more quickly once the defrost cycle is complete. All this amounts to less thawing of foods and refreezing during the defrost cycle. The result is that it reduces freezer burn. We suggest to view the following link for complete details on this great feature- REFRIGERATOR- FROSTGUARD TECHNOLOGY: http://products.geappliances.com/appliance/gea-support-search-content?contentId=16699 - Keep in touch!

QuestionIs the back of this refrig. completely enclosed or are there any exposed coils on back?
Asked 5 years ago by Katie.
This question was asked about the related product: GE - 23.2 Cu. Ft. Side-by-Side Refrigerator with External Ice & Water Dispenser - Bisque
- Answer Hi Katie, thanks for reaching out! This model has what is called a NeverClean Condenser. On refrigerators, air is "forced" across the condenser coils by a condenser fan to aid in removal of the heat being pulled from the refrigerator during the cooling process. This movement of air collects dust and household debris. Dirty condenser coils reduce the refrigerator's ability to maintain optimal temperatures or operate at maximum energy efficiency. Newer automatic defrost refrigerators have a NeverClean Condenser that does not require cleaning or maintenance. - The condenser coils are located in the compressor housing instead of on the back, keeping them clean and functioning optimally. This design allows for more efficient airflow. The coils will not require cleaning under normal condition since they are encased. - While it is not necessary for the performance of the refrigerator, if you want to clean dust, pet hair, etc. off the floor beneath the refrigerator, an appliance brush or vacuum with a hose attachment can be used. The rear of this unit will be enclosed. We hope that this information helps! Stay safe. -Michael

QuestionOn the fridge side, there are three drawers. There is a space (shelf) between the 1st drawer and the 2nd and 3rd drawer. Can this 1st drawer be moved down so there is no shelf between the 3 drawers?
Asked 6 years ago by Drawers.
This question was asked about the related product: GE - 23.2 Cu. Ft. Side-by-Side Refrigerator - White
- Answer Hi there, We are finding that the top drawer can only be moved down one more rung than where it is located in this picture: https://products.geappliances.com/appliance/gea-specs/GSE23GGKWW#gallery-4 - There is going to be a space between the top drawer the the others on the bottom of the fresh food section. Also, the shelf on top of the first drawer acts as a sort of lid to the drawer. You are able to adjust the shelves if there are spaces available for you to slide them in. We hope that this clears things up for you! Thanks so much for your question. -Michael

QuestionY The ice maker isn’t making ice. What do I do? I bought it in 2008
Asked 6 years ago by Beach.
This question was asked about the related product: GE - 23.2 Cu. Ft. Side-by-Side Refrigerator with External Ice & Water Dispenser - Bisque
- Answer Hi Beach - We are sorry to hear the icemaker is not producing ice. Check the Icemaker On/Off switch and be sure nothing interferes with the sweep of the feeler arm. A clogged water filter can restrict water flow to the icemaker. Filters should be changed every 6 months. See pages 8 and 14-15 of the Owner's Manual at the following link about the filter and icemaker: https://products.geappliances.com/MarketingObjectRetrieval/Dispatcher?RequestType=PDF&Name=49-60646-6.PDF - Also, view a short video about troubleshooting your icemaker at this link: https://products.geappliances.com/appliance/gea-support-search-content?contentId=17403 - For service, please schedule an appointment with GE Appliances Factory Service at GEAppliances.com/service or call 1-800-GECares (1-800-432-2737).

QuestionIs the water from the dispenser chilled or cooled
Asked 6 years ago by Tree.
This question was asked about the related product: GE - 23.2 Cu. Ft. Side-by-Side Refrigerator with External Ice & Water Dispenser - Bisque
- Answer Hi Tree - Side-by-Side refrigerators have a water reservoir in the fresh food section that holds approximately 14.9 to 33.5 ounces of water, depending on the model. Since the reservoir is in the fresh food section, the water will not be ice-cold.
