Sub-Zero Sabbath Mode and Star-K Information

About Sub-Zero Sabbath Mode

Most Sub-Zero and Wolf products with electronic control panels have a Sabbath Mode feature when sold.

Sabbath Mode turns off the ice maker system, and door alarm and prevents them from turning on again while the unit is in Sabbath Mode. 

  • Depending on model, the interior lights turn off, or go into a constant dim setting for the Sabbath mode.
    • Refer to the model specific Sabbath Mode links below for more information.

Star-K compliance requires strict adherence to Star-K guidelines. Some products may require a Sabbath Mode kit to make the product Star-K compliant.

  • In the event of a power failure, when power returns, the unit will return to this mode.
  • Visit Star-K Online for the most up-to-date listing of Star-K compliant appliances and requirements to meet Star-K standards.
