ELECTRONIC CONTROL
Sabbath mode
The Sabbath Mode is a feature that disables portions
of the refrigerator and its controls for, in accordance with
observance of the weekly Sabbath and religious holidays
within the Orthodox Jewish community.
Sabbath Mode is turned ON and OFF by pressing and
holding the freezer temp “-” and the refrigerator temp “+”
indicators for five seconds. The display shows “Sb” while in
Sabbath mode.
In the Sabbath Mode, the High Temp alarm is active for
health reasons. If a high temperature alarm is activated
during this time, for example due to a door left ajar, the
alarm will sound intermittently for about two minutes. The
alarm will then silence on its own and a red high tempera-
ture icon will display. The high temp icon will continue to
display, even if the door is closed, until the Sabbath mode
is exited and the icon reset. The refrigerator will function
normally once the door is closed, without any violation of
the Sabbath/Holidays.

While in Sabbath Mode, neither the lights nor the control

control board.
Sabbath Mode and the Select Temp
Drawer
The Select Temp Drawer should be turned off for the
Sabbath/Holidays. Before putting the refrigerator into the
Sabbath mode, turn the Select Temp Drawer off by press-
ing the drawer on/off button. The display will show “OFF”
and the drawer will turn off. Then enter the Sabbath mode
function on the main refrigerator display. See the electronic
control “Sabbath Mode” section. When in Sabbath mode,
the display will not illuminate and the drawer will remain
off. The drawer can still be used as a non-temp controlled
drawer in this mode. When the refrigerator is taken out of
Sabbath mode, the Select Temp Drawer will have to be
turned back on.
If the Select Temp Drawer is not turned off prior to putting
the unit into Sabbath Mode, it will continue to adjust itself to
maintain the set point even if the display does not illuminate
to show that it is still on.
