Temperature Control
For safe food storage, allow 4 hours for the freezer to
cool down completely. The freezer will run continuously
for the first several hours. Foods that are already frozen
may be placed in the freezer after the first few hours of
operation. Unfrozen food should NOT be placed in the
freezer until it has operated for 4 hours. Allow several
hours after each one-step adjustment for the freezer
temperature to stabilize.
Sabbath Mode
The Sabbath mode is a feature that disables portions
of the appliance and its controls in accordance with
observance of the weekly Sabbath and religious
holidays within the Orthodox Jewish community.
To turn Sabbath mode on, press and hold the "Options"
button and "+" button for 5 seconds, after which "Sb"
will be displayed on the control panel indicating that the
unit is in Sabbath mode. To exit Sabbath mode, press
and hold the "Options" button and "+" button for 5
seconds, after which the display will return to displaying
the set point of the unit.
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 for about 10 minutes. The alarm
will then silence on its own and a "high temp" icon will
be displayed on the control panel. The high temp icon
will continue to display even if the door is closed until
Sabbath mode is exited and the icon reset.
When loading the freezer, freeze only 3 pounds of
fresh food per cubic foot of space at a time. Distribute
packages evenly throughout the freezer. It is not
necessary to turn the control knob to a colder setting
while freezing food.
Turning the control to OFF stops the cooling process
but does not shut off power to the freezer.

NOTE: While in Sabbath mode, neither the lights nor the
control panel will work until Sabbath mode has been
deactivated.
The unit stays in Sabbath mode after a power failure
recovery. It must be deactivated with the buttons on
the control panel.
