Q: QuestionHow long after purchase should we install it, so the temperature is right in the fridge?

Asked 5 years ago by Vishnu.

Q: QuestionWe have a stainless steel microwave, dishwasher, and oven. Reviews said this stainless steel model shows lots of fingerprints. Might the slate match my stainless? I like the black, but think the black would make my kitchen too dark.

Asked 5 years ago by Brendasensei.

• A:Answer Hi Brendasensei - Thanks for considering GE Model GFE26JSMSS! On this model, the finish is not fingerprint resistant and would be the same as your current GE stainless steel appliances. The Slate finish will compliment stainless steel, however mixing appliance finishes is a personal preference. We suggest considering our GE® ENERGY STAR® 25.6 Cu. Ft. Fingerprint Resistant Stainless French-Door Refrigerator Model #: GFE26JYMFS. Our new Fingerprint Resistant Stainless offers a clear coat that allows the shine of the stainless to show through.

Q: QuestionHow do I know I installed my water line properly? When I press the button to release water nothing comes out. We got it today! I bought a new stainless still line also. Yes,the water is on! Does it take a period of time For the water to start coming out?

Asked 6 years ago by B.

• A:Answer You need to prime the line to get the air out of it. This is done by holding the water release for at least 30-45 seconds. The very first time you may see dark, uncleared water but it will eventually become clear.

Q: QuestionWhat is the wattage ?

Asked 6 years ago by lee.

• A:Answer Hi Lee the wattage of this fridge is 1,800 Watts. This power specs of this fridge is 120 Volts, 60Hz, 15 Amps, This may seem like a really high number. Usually when the compressor kicks on it starts at that wattage and then uses a lot less energy once the fridge gets down to temperature.
