 Allow freezer to operate for at least four hours before placing food inside.

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. 

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.

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.

For further assistance, guidelines of proper usage and 

a complete list of models with the Sabbath feature, 

please visit the web at http:\\www.star-k.org.
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.
