Introduction  
ABOUT THE SABBATH MODE  
This feature was designed for use on the Jewish Sabbath and Holidays. The Sabbath Mode feature makes it possible  
for observant Jews to refrigerate and freeze food during the duration of the holiday. When set, the Sabbath Mode  
feature will override typical reactions to actions in your refrigerator.  
While in Sabbath Mode your refrigerator will still operate normally, but the refrigerator will not respond to your actions.  
The fan may or may not be running when the door is opened; however, this is not a result of your actions. The fan will  
operate at random times.  
Defrost Heater  
Ice and Water Dispenser  
• The defrost heater will continue to defrost the  
refrigerator and freezer.  
• The proximity sensor and dispenser touch sensor  
icons on the ice and water dispenser will not operate.  
• Ice and water cannot be retrieved from the dispenser  
while the refrigerator is in Sabbath Mode.  
• The defrost heater will be activated on a fixed timer  
during Sabbath Mode. Defrost heater will not defrost  
as a result of door openings or any action by the  
consumer.

• Interior lights and dispenser light will not operate.  
Displays and Alarms  
Icemaker

• The icemaker will

by opening the ice bin  
door and by setting the  
icemaker power switch  
to O (off).  
• The main temperature control and Quick Chill or  
Express Chill displays will not be lit. The touch pad  
sensors will not sound a tone or operate to change  
the set temperature when in Sabbath Mode.  
• The temperature and Quick Chill settings will remain  
at the previously set temperatures during and after  
Sabbath Mode.

Consumer Information  
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS  
How long can I run my refrigerator in Sabbath Mode?  
We recommend against running the refrigerator for longer than 4 days at a time in Sabbath mode, as the overall  
cooling capability of the refrigerator may be affected.  
Can I use Sabbath Mode in a hot or humid environment?  
Yes.  
Why do Quick Chill and Express Chill not work while the refrigerator is in Sabbath Mode?  
The Quick Chill and Express Chill features are disabled during Sabbath Mode.  
How will a power outage affect Sabbath Mode?  
Once the power returns, the refrigerator will automatically return to Sabbath Mode.  
How will Sabbath Mode affect the temperature settings?  
The temperature settings of the refrigerator will remain unchanged when turning Sabbath Mode on or off.  
What will happen if I touch the controls while the refrigerator is in Sabbath Mode?  
Touching the controls while in Sabbath Mode will not affect the refrigerator settings. All control pads and displays  
are disabled during Sabbath Mode.  
How do I get ice while the refrigerator is in Sabbath Mode?  
Any ice made by icemaker will remain frozen and will be available in the ice storage bin. For additional ice,  
use ice trays.  
Why are the interior lights not working when I turn the Sabbath Switch OFF?  
The refrigerator’s Master Light Switch may have accidentally been set to OFF. The Master Light Switch must be  
turned ON for the interior lights to function properly. Refer to the refrigerator’s Owner’s Manual for the location  
of the switch.  
Why won’t the icemaker in my Side-by-Side refrigerator work after turning the Sabbath Mode feature off?  
Make sure the icemaker power switch is in the I (on) position. The Sabbath Mode switch does not affect or control  
the icemaker on Side-by-Side refrigerator models. Instead, the icemaker is disabled by opening the ice bin and  
setting the icemaker power switch to O (off). To resume normal automatic ice production, open the ice bin and  
set the icemaker power switch to I (on).
