Can it really run in a garage?

Yes. GE rates it for ambient temperatures from 0°F to 110°F, so it is built for garages and other outbuildings that swing hot and cold.

Do I have to defrost it?

No. It is frost-free and clears ice buildup automatically, so there is no manual scraping.

How does the freezer-to-fridge conversion work?

Electronic controls let you switch the compartment between freezer and refrigerator modes, so the same cabinet can hold frozen stock or everyday fresh food.

What happens to food during a power outage?

GE's Power Outage Promise keeps food frozen for 48 hours, giving you time to ride out an outage or move food.

What does the WiFi do?

Through the SmartHQ app it sends phone alerts for an open door or unsafe internal temperatures, so you can catch problems before food spoils.

Which way does the door open?

The hinge is reversible, so the door can be set to open from either side to fit your space.
