Dwell Cycle
¾ After both defrost heaters have cycled off, the unit will enter the dwell cycle.
¾ During the dwell cycle, the compressor and fans will remain off. The 3-way valve
will move to the ‘A” position (both fresh food and freezer open) and remain there
for the entire cycle.
¾ Dwell cycle will terminate after 10* minutes.
¾ At the end of the dwell cycle, the compressor run timer for adaptive defrost is
reset to 0 hours and the refrigerator enters the post-dwell cycle.
¾ If power is interrupted during the dwell cycle and the freezer temperature is
greater than 50˚F* (the freezer defrost termination temperature), the dwell cycle
will start over. Note: Pull down will start if the freezer temperature is over 60°F
