SYSTEM MONITORING ALARMS (Select Models)

The electronic control system continuously monitors your
refrigerator/freezer for temperature consistency, doors
left ajar, and power failures. Variances from normal
operating conditions are communicated by audible tones
and a set of four status indicator lights.

USING THE ALARM RESET BUTTON

You can disable or activate the alarm system by pressing
and holding the Reset button for three seconds. Use it,
for example, to turn off audible tones and/or flashing
indicator lights.

Once you disable the alarm system, you must again
press and hold the Alarm Reset button for three more
seconds to reset (activate) the alarm system.

The On indicator light remains off while the freezer and
refrigerator compartments cool toward the current
cooling settings. When temperature settings are reached,
the On light displays green to indicate an active alarm
system.

RESPONDING TO ALARMS (Audible Tones & Indicator
