Temperature Controls

will illuminate when the feature is activated.  To deactivate, press
the Vacation Mode pad again OR open either door.  The indicator
light will go off.

Temp Alarm

The Temp Alarm system will alert you if the freezer or fresh food
temperatures exceed normal operating temperatures due to a
power outage or other event.  When activated, the Temp Alarm light
will illuminate.  

If the freezer or fresh food temperatures have exceeded these limits,
the display will alternately show the current compartment
temperatures and the highest compartment temperatures reached
when the power was out.  An audible alarm will sound repeatedly.

Press the Temp Alarm pad once to stop the audible alarm.  The
Temp Alarm light will continue to flash and the temperatures will
alternate until the temperatures have stabilized.

To turn off Temp Alarm, press and hold the Temp Alarm pad for
three seconds.  The indicator light will go off.

Door Alarm

The Door Alarm will alert you when one of the doors has been left
open for five continuous minutes.  When this happens, an audible
alarm will sound every few seconds until the door is closed OR the
Door Alarm pad is pressed to deactivate the feature.

Max Cool

When activated, Max Cool causes the fresh food and freezer
temperatures to drop to the minimum settings on the control.  This
cools down the refrigerator and freezer after extended door
openings or when loading the refrigerator or freezer with warm
food.  

Note:

When the Max Cool feature is in operation, the

and        pads for the refrigerator and freezer controls will not
operate.  

To activate, press the Max Cool pad.  Max Cool will deactivate
automatically after 12 hours, OR press the Max Cool pad to
deactivate the feature.

User Preferences

Access the User Preferences menu to:

•  Activate or turn off Super Cool (select models)

•  Change the temperature display from °F to °C 

•  Enable or disable audible alarms.

•  Adjust the light level at which the Dispenser Auto Light will

illuminate (when this feature is activated on the ice and water
dispenser)  (select models)

•  Activate the Sabbath Mode

To access the User Preferences menu, press and hold the Door
Alarm pad for three seconds.  When in the User Preferences
mode, a short title for the feature will appear in the Freezer
temperature display and the feature status will appear in the
Fresh Food display.  

1. Use the Freezer up and down control to scroll through the

features.  

2. When the desired feature is displayed, use the Fresh Food up

and down control to change the status.

3. When changes are complete, press the Door Alarm pad for

three seconds OR close the Fresh Food door.

Super Cool (CC)  (select models)

When Super Cool is ON, an air-mixing fan in the fresh food
compartment is activated to improve air flow and temperature
control.  To save energy, this feature may be deactivated by
choosing OFF.

Temperature Display  (F_C)

Change the display to show temperatures in degrees Fahrenheit
or degrees Celsius.

Alarm  (AL)

When the Alarm mode is OFF, all audible alarms will be disabled
until the feature is turned on.

Auto Light Level Selection  (LL)  (select models)

This setting adjusts the light level at which the dispenser light
will illuminate when the sensor detects that the light levels in the
room are low.  Setting 1 is the darkest light level setting, setting
9 is the lightest light level setting.  

Note: 

The Auto Light (select

models) must be activated on the ice and water dispenser
control to take advantage of this option.

Sabbath Mode  (SAB)

When the Sabbath Mode is ON, all control lights and the night
light will be disabled until the feature is turned OFF.  This feature
does not disable the interior lights.  Press any pad to restore the
control lights.

Warm Cabinet Surfaces

At times, the front of the refrigerator cabinet may be warm to
the touch.  This is a normal occurrence that helps prevent
moisture from condensing on the cabinet.  This condition will be
more noticeable when the refrigerator is first started, during hot
weather and after excessive or lengthy door openings.

Notes

• Door openings will not deactivate Vacation Mode for

approximately one hour after activation.

• If vacationing for more than a few days, see the Preparing

for Vacation section, page 29.
