Sabbath Mode Sabbath Mode is designed for those whose religious observances require turning off the lights and dispensers. In Sabbath Mode, the temperature set points remain unchanged, but the interior and dispenser lights turn off, all sounds and alarms are disabled, the dispenser display screen backlight turns off, and the dispenser levers are disabled. The ice maker is also disabled; however, the "Ice Maker Off" icon will not appear in the display. ■ To turn on Sabbath Mode, press and hold LIGHT and OPTIONS at the same time for 3 seconds. When the feature turns on, "Sabbath Mode" will appear on the dispenser display. ■ To turn off Sabbath Mode, press and hold LIGHT and OPTIONS at the same time for 3 seconds again. The screen will display the settings as they were before Sabbath Mode was turned on. The Max Cool feature, however, will remain off until it is selected again. Power Outage Indicator The power outage indicator lets you know if the power supply to the refrigerator has been cut off and the freezer temperature has risen to 18°F (-8°C) or higher. When power has been restored, "PO" repeatedly flashes on the display screen and the red Power Outage icon appears. Exterior Refrigerator Drawer The refrigerator drawer holds more fresh food in more ways than ever before, and is ideal for storing popular food items that need to be readily accessible. In addition the drawer's location allows children to serve themselves from the refrigerator. Use the full-width drawer to store large party platters or deli trays, or use a drawer organizer to store smaller items such as yogurt, juice boxes and lunch meat within easy access. To purchase the Short Horizontal Organizer, Part Number W10328403A, contact your dealer or call 1-800-422-1230 in the U.S.A. or 1-800-807-6777 in Canada. To Adjust the Temperature Control: The refrigerated drawer has a separate temperature control which regulates only the temperature of the drawer. The temperature control regulates how much refrigerated air is allowed to circulate into the drawer. Adjusting the control allows more or less air to circulate. ■ Slide the control toward Produce for less cold air and toward Deli for more cold air. When the indicator is on, all other control and dispenser functions are disabled until you confirm that you are aware of the power outage. ■ To enable other functions, press MEASURED FILL to reset the display screen to its normal status. Door Ajar Alarm The Door Ajar Alarm feature sounds an alarm when the refrigerator or freezer door is open for 5 minutes and the product cooling is turned on. The alarm will repeat every 2 minutes. Close both doors to turn it off. The feature then resets and will reactivate when either door is left open again for 5 minutes. NOTE: To mute the audible alarm while keeping the doors open, such as while cleaning the inside of the refrigerator, press any button on the control panel. The alarm sound will be temporarily turned off, but the Door Ajar icon will still be displayed on the dispenser control panel. Disabling Sounds ■ To turn off all control and dispenser sounds, press and hold ICE and MEASURED FILL at the same time for 3 seconds. ■ To turn all sounds back on, press and hold ICE and MEASURED FILL at the same time for 3 seconds again. Water Filter Status Light and Filter Reset The filter reset control allows you to restart the water filter status tracking feature each time you replace the water filter. See "Water Filtration System." ■ After changing the water filter, reset the status light. Press the OPTIONS button to enter Options mode, then press LOCK to initiate the reset, then press MEASURED FILL to confirm that you want to reset the status light. When the system is reset, the "ORDER" and "REPLACE" icons will disappear from the display screen. Crisper Humidity Control You can control the amount of humidity in the moisture-sealed crisper. Depending on your model, adjust the control to any setting between FRUIT and VEGETABLES or LOW and HIGH. FRUIT/LOW (open) for best storage of fruits and vegetables with skins. VEGETABLES/HIGH (closed) for best storage of fresh, leafy vegetables. 10 Ice Maker and Ice Storage Bin IMPORTANT: ■ Flush the water system before turning on the ice maker. See "Water and Ice Dispensers." ■ The ice maker and storage bin are located in the upper lefthand side of the refrigerator compartment. Turning the Ice Maker On/Off The ice maker has an automatic shutoff. When the ice maker is on, sensors will automatically stop ice production when the storage bin is full. The ice maker will remain set to ON, and ice production will resume when the bin is no longer full. To manually turn off the ice maker: Press OPTIONS to display the OPTIONS screen. Pressing ICE MAKER, if the ice maker is currently on, will turn off the ice maker. The "Ice Maker Off" icon will flash three times and then stay lit. When the ice maker is set to OFF, it will stop producing ice. Pressing ICE MAKER, if the ice maker is currently off, turns on the ice maker. The "Ice Maker Off" icon will disappear. Removing and Replacing Ice Storage Bin To Remove the Ice Storage Bin: 1. Hold the base of the storage bin and press the release button. 2. Pull out the storage bin. To Replace the Ice Storage Bin: IMPORTANT: It may be necessary to turn the auger driver, behind the ice bin, counterclockwise to properly align the ice bin with the auger driver. The ice storage bin must be locked in place for proper ice dispensing. 1. Slide the ice bin into the guide rails located on either side of the enclosure.
