Door Open Alarm
The Door Open 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.
Details:
When a door is open for 5 minutes and the cooling function is on:
The Door Open Icon and the normal screen is displayed.
The Door Open chime is sounded 3 times.
The Door Open Icon appears and blinks 7 times and then becomes constant.
If a door is left open, every 2 minutes, the Door Open chime sounds 3 times, the Door Open
icon blinks 7 times and ten becomes constant.
NOTE: Since inactivity to sleep is also 2 minutes, the door open situation shall over ride the
sleep mode. In other words, the user interface will not go to the sleep mode if it is in the Door
Open mode.
When the door open alert condition is met (door open for 5 min), pressing any button on the
control panel at any time will turn off the Door Open Alert Chime.
The other door open functions, flashing door open icon, and the door reset timer continue until
the next door open alert occurs. This will continue until the both door are closed.
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 tem-
porarily turned off, but the Door Open icon will still be displayed on the dispenser control panel.
