FF on a GE Profile says the freezer temperature is climbing past where it belongs. GE's wording puts the food first: look for anything that has started to thaw. The code tells you the freezer is warming, and leaves the reason open. GE Profile refrigerator display What to do when FF shows on the refrigerator ### Kind of code Service indication A light or a message asking for a visit. It says that something wants attention, not what, so the visit starts with a diagnosis. ### Usually leads to Diagnostic visit The visit that decides what the repair actually is, before any part is ordered. ### Shows up as Freezer Not Freezing Soft ice cream and refreezing frost, or a cabinet that has gone entirely warm. ### Make GE Profile GE Appliances' step-up line above GE: freestanding and counter-depth French door and side-by-side refrigerators. ### Source GE Appliances (maker of GE Profile) support: refrigerator codes GE Profile is a GE Appliances line, and GE Appliances publishes a single refrigerator code list for its brands, written for models with electronic dispenser controls.

Open the freezer and sort anything soft from what is still hard; move the soft items to a cooler or another freezer. If it comes back, it needs a visit. ### Will FF on my GE Profile clear by itself? Not while the freezer stays warm, since FF is a live temperature warning rather than a setting. Sort soft items from frozen ones and check the door or drawer seal. ### Is GE Profile FF the same as PF? No, PF only says power was cut, while FF says the freezer is warming now. A freezer that keeps climbing once the door has been checked warrants a same-day booking. --- **[Read on the site: GE Profile refrigerator showing FF](https://refrigeratorrepair.center/error-codes/ge-profile-ff/)** **[Book a visit with RefrigeratorRepair.center](https://refrigeratorrepair.center/schedule/)**
