Door Open Alarm
The Door Open icon lights up when a door has been open for
5 minutes and cooling is on. An alert tone will sound three
times, and the Door Open icon will flash seven times. This
pattern will repeat every 2 minutes until all the doors are
closed completely. The feature then resets and will reactivate
when a door is left open again for 5 minutes.
NOTES:
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
temporarily turned off, but the Door Open icon will still be
displayed on the dispenser control panel.
All doors must be completely closed to turn off the Door
Open icon.
Sabbath Mode
Sabbath mode is designed for those whose religious observances
require turning off the lights.
In Sabbath Mode the temperature set points remain unchanged,
but the interior and dispenser lights turn off, all sounds and alarms
are disabled and the dispenser screen backlight turns off.
To turn on Sabbath Mode, press and hold both FREEZER
TEMP and FRIDGE TEMP at the same time for 3 seconds.
After 3 seconds, an “engage” tone will sound and the icons on
the control panel display will flash and then disappear.
NOTE: You must close the doors to turn off the lights. The
lights will remain off while the refrigerator is in Sabbath mode.
To turn off Sabbath Mode, press and hold both FREEZER
TEMP and FRIDGE TEMP at the same time for 3 seconds.
After 3 seconds, a “disengage” tone will sound and the
control panel will display the normal screen.
NOTE: After turning off Sabbath Mode, you must first close
the doors to turn ON the lights. Then the lights will function
normally.
NOTES:
Sabbath mode does not disable the water dispenser or the ice
maker. To turn off the ice maker, see “Ice Maker.”
If a power failure occurs or you unplug the refrigerator while it
is in Sabbath mode, it will take 10 minutes for the cooling
system to resume when power is restored.

Water Dispenser
IMPORTANT:
Allow 3 hours for the refrigerator to cool down and chill water.
Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Discard the
first three batches of ice produced.
Flush the Water System
Air in the water dispensing system can cause the water dispenser
to drip. After connecting the refrigerator to a water source or
replacing the water filter, flush the water system.
Flushing the water dispensing system, forces air from the water
line and filter and prepares the water filter for use. Additional
flushing may be required in some households.
NOTE: As air is cleared from the system, water may spurt out of
t
he dispenser.
1. Using a sturdy container, depress and hold the water
dispenser paddle for 5 seconds.
2. Release
the dispenser paddle for 5 seconds. Repeat steps 1
and 2 until water begins to flow.
3. Once water begins to flow, continue depressing and releasing
the dispenser pad (5 seconds on, 5 seconds off) until a total of
4 gal. (15 L) has been dispensed.
Dispense Water
1. Hold a container under the dispenser spout while pressing the
dispenser pad.
2. Release the dispenser pad to stop dispensing.
Ice Maker
(on some models)
IMPORTANT: For models with a water filter, after connecting the
refrigerator to a water source or replacing the water filter, fill and
discard three full containers of ice to prepare the water filter for
use.
Turning the Ice Maker On/Off
To turn the ice maker ON, simply lower the wire shutoff arm.
To manually turn the ice maker OFF, lift the wire shutoff arm to the
OFF (arm up) position and listen for the click.
NOTE: Your ice maker has an automatic shutoff. As ice is made,
the ice cubes will fill the ice storage bin and the ice cubes will
raise the wire shutoff arm to the OFF (arm up) position. Do not
force the wire shutoff
arm up or down.
