Refrigerator Operation
If You Choose to Leave the Refrigerator On While
You’re Away:
1. Use up any perishables and freeze other items.
2. Touch the SABBATH MODE key.
3. If your refrigerator has an automatic ice
maker, shut off the water supply to the ice
maker.
4. Empty the ice bin.
5. When you return from vacation, touch SABBATH MODE to
return to normal operation.
If You Choose to Turn the Refrigerator Off Before You
Leave:
1. Remove all food from the refrigerator.
2. Turn off the water supply to the ice maker at least one day
ahead of time.
3. When the last load of ice drops, turn the ice maker switch to
OFF.
4. Turn the refrigerator OFF. See page 4.
5. Clean the refrigerator, wipe it, and dry well.
6. Tape rubber or wood blocks to the tops of both doors to prop
them open far enough for air to get in. This stops odor and
mold from building up.
Power Interruptions
If the power will be out for 24 hours or less, keep the doors closed
(depending on your model) to help food stay cold and frozen.
If the power will be out for more than 24 hours, do one of the
following:
Remove all frozen food and store it in a frozen food locker.
Place 2 lbs (907 g) of dry ice in the freezer for every cubic foot
(28 L) of freezer space. This will keep the food frozen for 2 to
4 days.
If neither a food locker nor dry ice is available, consume or
can perishable food at once.
IMPORTANT: A full freezer stays cold longer than a partially filled
one. A freezer full of meat stays cold longer than a freezer full of
baked goods. If you see that food contains ice crystals, it may be
refrozen, although the quality and flavor may be affected. If the
condition of the food is poor, dispose of it.
Vacation Care
Your refrigerator is equipped with the Sabbath Mode feature,
which is designed for the traveler who wishes to turn off the lights
and ice maker. By selecting this feature, the temperature set
points remain unchanged, the ice maker will be disabled and the
interior lights will turn off. For most efficient refrigerator operation,
it is recommended to exit the Sabbath Mode when it is no longer
required.
