Your refrigerator is equipped with the Sabbath Mode feature,
which is designed for the traveler or for those whose religious
observances require turning 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 Sabbath mode when it is no longer required.
If You Choose to Leave the Refrigerator On While
You're Away:
1. Use up any perishables and freeze other items.
2. Press the SABBATH touch pad.
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, press the SABBATH touch
pad to return to normal operation.
Try the solutions suggested here first in order to avoid the cost of an unnecessary service call.

TROUBLESHOOTING
Refrigerator Operation
Your new refrigerator may run longer than your old one due to its
high-efficiency compressor and fans. The unit may run even
longer if the room is warm, a large food load is added, doors are
opened often, or if the doors have been left open.
Refrigerator noise has been reduced over the years. Due to this
reduction, you may hear intermittent noises from your new
refrigerator that you did not notice from your old model. Below are
listed some normal sounds with an explanation.
Turn off the water supply to the ice maker at least one day
ahead of time.
When the last load of ice drops, slide the ice maker control
to the OFF (down) position.
OFF for 3 seconds to turn off cooling.
NOTE: To turn off the power completely, use the power ON/
OFF switch located behind the top grille. See "Power On/Off
Switch."

mold from building up.
New installation? Allow 24 hours following installation for the
refrigerator to cool completely.
NOTE: Adjusting the temperature controls to the coldest
setting will not cool either compartment more quickly.
