Jenn-Air JFFCC72EFS French Door 22.1 cu ft French Door Refrigerator with Turbo Cool and LED Lighting SB Error Fix: Sabbath Mode Active

The refrigerator is in Sabbath mode — this is NOT an error; the display and interior lighting behavior change intentionally (lights do not turn on/off with door opening, display changes are limited, and alarms are silenced); Sabbath mode is designed for religious observance of Shabbat and Jewish holidays; to exit Sabbath mode, press and hold the designated button combination as specified in the owner's manual; the specific combination varies by model but typically involves holding two buttons simultaneously for 3-5 seconds
