The Temp Alarm light will continue to flash until the refrigerator returns to the set temperature. Style 2 - Press the Freezer up arrow touch pad until OFF appears in the display. Neither compartment will cool. Press the Freezer or Refrigerator down arrow touch pad to turn cooling back on. Additional Control Center Features PowerCold™ Feature The PowerCold™ feature assists with periods of high refrigerator use, full grocery loads, or temporarily warm room temperatures. ■ Press the POWERCOLD touch pad to set the freezer and refrigerator to the lowest temperature settings.
