Q:Changed water filter now won’t get ice or water
by|Apr 21, 2020
1 Answer
Answer This Question

A:  Hi Gah - Thanks for reaching out to us! We are sorry to hear your refrigerator is not providing water/ice after a filter change. The dispenser may be locked. Press Lock pad on the exterior control panel and hold 3 seconds to lock/unlock. After replacing your filter, air may be trapped in the water system. Press the dispenser arm for at least 5 minutes. To check whether you have a clogged/defective filter, remove the filter and install the filter bypass plug in its place. Take a look at the following links - REFRIGERATOR - NOT GETTING WATER FROM THE DISPENSER: https://products.geappliances.com/appliance/gea-support-search-content?contentId=39514 - REFRIGERATOR – RPWFE OPERATION AND TROUBLESHOOTING: https://products.geappliances.com/appliance/gea-support-search-content?contentId=19693 - We hope this is helpful.

    Q:How do you set the settings

    Answer This Question

    A:  Hi And20rew04 - Thanks for reaching out to us and for choosing GE. We are sorry to hear the refrigerator is not working and we're happy to provide instructions for setting the temperatures. The temperature adjustment only goes one direction. When you keep pressing the Fridge or Freezer pad, the temperature setting will go up until it reaches the maximum limit and then starts over at the lowest limit. The ranges for the Fresh food section on most models is 34°F to 42°F; the range for the Freezer section on most models is -6°F to 5°F. We suggest viewing a video at this link: https://youtu.be/d2l6J456OJ4 - Also, here's the link to the Use and Care Manual: https://images.homedepot-static.com/catalog/pdfImages/9c/9cef608c-1fd8-4bb7-a207-fbccb024af6b.pdf - We hope this is helpful. Please keep in touch at GEAppliances.com. We are always eager to help! Sue

      A:  The temperature setting are on the panel above the water/ice maker. Press the button for either freezer or refrigerator and the inside temperature will be displayed. Continue to press the button to change the temperature to your preference. There is also a turbo setting button that quickly cools the unit but I didn't have to use it.

        A:  What do you mean by "It's not working"? What's not working? If you had it delivered one of the guys should have set up and tested all fridge functions before you signed off on the delivery. Home Depot has a toll-free Appliances customer service phone number. Use it. I bet there are a few reps working in the call center or maybe from home.

          Answer This Question

          A:  We don't have this feature either. In the Adora we bought, there are two produce crisper drawers with plastic sliders along tracks. Pull the slider to the far left for the low humidity Fruit setting, or to the far right for the high humidity Vegetables setting. The long Climate Zone deli drawer (or whatever you use it for) is not a temperature controlled drawer so I don't know why GE calls it Climate Zone. When we bought this fridge we knew it didn't have the fancy LED climate control buttons, but the sliders in the produce bins were more than we had in our old fridge. The only features we cared about and still enjoy are the Quick Space Shelf and the water dispenser Autofill. These features are not available in other GE fridge models at this price point. I know, I researched fridges extensively before we chose the GE Adora.

            A:  Hi dr - Thanks for reaching out to us and for choosing GE Adora Model # DFE28JSKSS! This model has a full-width drawer with LED light (not colored). Also, the Climate Zone drawer does not allow you to change the temperature. A website correction request will be sent to The Home Depot. We apologize for any confusion and inconvenience this has caused. This is disappointing, we know. The HD.com customer service department can be reached at 800-430-3376, call any day between 6 a.m. and 2 a.m. EST. We’re glad to have you in the family. Keep in touch at GEAppliances.com. Sue

                          A:  Hi Teresa - Thanks for choosing GE Adora Model # DFE28JSKSS and welcome to the family. We can certainly understand your concern that the boys may not completely close the doors due to the "stiffness". The front of the unit should be raised just enough so that the doors close easily when opened less than 90 degrees. At 90 degrees or more, the door will remain still or swing open and must be pushed to close. We suggest viewing the following link: REFRIGERATOR - HOW TO LEVEL: https://products.geappliances.com/appliance/gea-support-search-content?contentId=19144 - Also, leveling instructions are provided in the Installation Guide at this link: https://images.homedepot-static.com/catalog/pdfImages/9c/9cef608c-1fd8-4bb7-a207-fbccb024af6b.pdf - If the doors were removed, see page 30 regarding door and hinge alignment.

                            A:  Check to make sure all the packing is out. I think there is some styrofoam packing up by top of the drawer slides. I found some up there. I almost missed it.
