SYSTEM-MONITORING ALARMS
The electronic control system continuously monitors your refrigerator/freezer
for temperature consistency, doors left ajar, and power failures. Variances
from normal operating conditions are communicated by audible tones and
a set of four status indicator lights.
RESPONDING TO ALARMS (AUDIBLE TONES &
INDICATOR LIGHTS)
USING THE ALARM RESET BUTTON
You can disable or activate the alarm system
by pressing and holding the Alarm Reset
button for three seconds. Use it, for example,
to turn off audible tones and/or flashing
indicator lights.
Once you disable the alarm system, you must
again press and hold the Alarm Reset button
for three more seconds to reset (activate) the
alarm system. The On indicator light remains
off while the Freezer and Fresh Food
compartments cool toward the current
temperature settings. When temperature
settings are reached, the On light displays
green to indicate an active alarm system.
TURNING THE COOLING SYSTEM ON AND OFF
You can disable the cooling system in your refrigerator by pressing the
On/Off button located on the left side of the temperature control panel. To
ensure that you do not accidentally turn off the cooling system, the button
does not work unless you press and hold it for three seconds. Once you
disable the cooling system, all refrigeration to the freezer and fresh food
compartments stops. To turn the cooling system back on, you must again
press and hold the On/Off button for three more seconds.
NOTE: Each time you make settings on the control panel, a single
audible tone acknowledges your input.
