The Max Cool indicator light will remain on for 24 hours unless manually turned off. NOTE: The temperature display will remain at 34°F (1°C) and -5°F (-21°C) for the refrigerator and freezer compartments, respectively, while the Max Cool feature is enabled. After 24 hours, the refrigerator returns to the previous temperature set points. Alarm Functions Master Alarm Reset Pressing Alarm Reset once will turn off the audio alarm and indicator light. The audio alarm will not sound again for the current condition that caused the alarm until a new condition occurs or until a Master Alarm Reset is performed. A Master Alarm Reset can be performed by pressing Cooling (ON/ OFF) twice or by turning the power to the refrigerator off and on again. See "Power On/Off Switch." After performing a Master Alarm Reset, the indicator light will reactivate if the condition that caused the alarm is still present. See "Over Temperature," "Call Service," or "Door Open." Door Open The Door Open indicator light will flash, an alarm will sound and the interior lights will turn off when a door has been open for longer than 10 minutes. When the door is closed, the audio alarm will reset and turn off, but the Door Open indicator light will continue to flash until the temperature is equal to or below 45°F (7°C) and 15°F (-9°C) for the refrigerator and freezer compartments, respectively. NOTE: To deactivate the audio alarm and indicator light, see "Master Alarm Reset." Over Temperature IMPORTANT: If the Over Temperature Alarm activates, your food may spoil. See the "Power Interruptions." Minimize door openings until temperatures return to normal. The Over Temperature feature is designed to let you know when either the refrigerator temperature rises above 48°F (9°C) or the freezer temperature rises above 15°F (-9°C) for longer than 1¹⁄₂ hours. The audio alarm will shut off automatically when the temperature returns to normal, but the indicator light will continue to flash until the Alarm is pressed to let you know that an over temperature condition has occurred. If the over temperature condition is still present when an Over Temperature Reset is performed, the indicator light will continue to reactivate every 1¹⁄₂ hours until refrigerator and freezer temperatures are below 48°F (9°C) and 15°F (-9°C), respectively. NOTE: The audio alarm will be disabled for subsequent occurrences of over temperature alarm condition. To enable the audio alarm, see "Master Alarm Reset." Sabbath Mode The Sabbath Mode feature is designed for the traveler or for those whose religious observances require turning off the lights and ice maker. By selecting this feature, the temperature set points and Deli Pan settings remain unchanged, the ice maker will be disabled and the interior lights will turn off. For most efficient refrigerator operation, it is recommended to exit the Sabbath Mode when it is no longer required. To fully activate Sabbath Mode, you must follow the instructions below for both the control panel and dispenser panel (on some models). IMPORTANT: If you do not activate Sabbath Mode in both ways listed below, some functions you wish to disable will remain active. Control Panel In Sabbath Mode, the temperature set points remain unchanged and the interior lights turn off. ■■ Press SABBATH MODE to turn on Sabbath Mode. ■■ Press SABBATH MODE again to turn off Sabbath Mode. Dispenser Panel Holiday Mode (on some models) In Holiday Mode, the dispenser levers are disabled and the dispenser lights turn off. ■■ To turn on Holiday Mode, press and hold ICE, LIGHT and LOCKOUT at the same time for 3 seconds. When the feature turns on, the indicator light around the LOCKOUT button will blink and "HOL" will appear on the dispenser display. ■■ To turn Holiday Mode off, press and hold ICE, LIGHT and LOCKOUT at the same time for 3 seconds again. NOTE: If the Max Cool feature has been selected prior to turning on the Holiday Mode feature, then the set points will remain at 34°F (1°C) and -5°F (-21°C) for the refrigerator and freezer compartments, respectively, until the Max Cool feature times out. The refrigerator will then return to the previous temperature set points chosen prior to the selection of the Max Cool feature, but the lights and ice maker will remain off until the Holiday Mode is pressed again. Water and Ice Dispensers (on some models) IMPORTANT: ■■ After connecting the refrigerator to a water source or replacing the water filter, flush the water system. Use a sturdy container to depress and hold the water dispenser lever for 5 seconds, then release it for 5 seconds. Repeat until water begins to flow. Once water begins to flow, continue depressing and releasing the dispenser lever (5 seconds on, 5 seconds off) until a total of 3 gal. (12 L) has been dispensed. This will flush air from the filter and water dispensing system, and prepare the water filter for use. Additional flushing may be required in some households. NOTE: As air is cleared from the system, water may spurt out of the dispenser. ■■ Allow 24 hours for the refrigerator to cool down and chill water. 7
