TurboCool™ rapidly cools the refrigerator

Use TurboCool™ when adding a large amount
of food to the refrigerator compartment, putting
away foods after they have been sitting out at
room temperature, or when putting away warm
leftovers. It can also be used if the refrigerator
has been without power for an extended period.
To set the TurboCool™, press the Alarm pad for
3 seconds. The display will show "tC".
NOTE: The refrigerator temperature cannot
be changed during TurboCool™. The freezer
temperature is not affected during TurboCool™.
When opening the refrigerator door during
TurboCool™, the fans will continue to run if they
have cycled on.

Demo Mode

defrost heater. All keys on the control panel are
functional. The display will show and blink 888
then switch to displaying the set temperature. To
enter Demo Mode press Lock, Cubed, and Light
pads simultaneously for 5 seconds. To exit Demo
Mode, cycle power to the refrigerator. Demo
Mode can also be entered from Service Mode

Sabbath Mode

Sabbath Mode is designed to eliminate changes
in operations of the refrigerator due to human
interactions. This mode is entered by the
consumer during observance of the Sabbath or
during specific religious holidays.
While in the Sabbath Mode, the appliance will still
operate normally. However, the appliance will not
respond to any consumer actions.
While in the Sabbath Mode, it may be noticed
that the fan is running when the door is opened;
however, this is not a result of any interactions
with the refrigerator. The fan will operate at
random times. The defrost heater will continue to
defrost the appliance and defrost will be activated
on a timer. The defrost heater will not defrost
as a result of door openings or any consumer
actions.
DISPLAYS, ALARMS and LIGHTS: The main
temperature control displays will be deactivated;
therefore, they will not be lit, sound a tone or
operate when touched. Door alarms will be
disabled. Lights will always be on but at a dim
light setting.
To turn on Sabbath Mode, press and hold the
Lock and Light pads until the display shows SA
briefly before going blank. Repeat the process to
turn off Sabbath Mode. Temperature set point will
be displayed. Sabbath mode will automatically
exit four days after being entered.
