THANK YOU
Thank you for purchasing your new Sub-Zero
Built-In unit. With Sub-Zero, you can rely on a
0-year tradition of quality and reliability. The
6
Built-In line brings together the latest and
finest features in home refrigeration to give
ou the freshest food possible.
y
ub-Zero’s design, beauty and quality are
S
reflected in the broad range of standard
features that put Sub-Zero in a class by itself.
The custom-design appearance of the
Sub-Zero Built-In line gives you options no
other line offers, whether you have chosen a
framed, overlay, stainless steel or glass door
style unit.
Your Sub-Zero is protected by a warranty that
is one of the finest in the industry. Take a
moment to read the warranty statement on
page 39 and refer to it should service become
necessary.
This Use & Care Information book will answer
most of your questions about the features,
operation and maintenance of your Built-In
unit. If you have questions that are not

DUAL REFRIGERATION
The Built-In line continues the Sub-Zero
tradition of superior quality and reliability.
ub-Zero pioneered the development of our
S
exclusive dual refrigeration system, giving
you optimum fresh and freezer food storage
n ideal self-contained sections. Both refriger-
i
ator and freezer maintain accurate, consistent
temperatures. Dual refrigeration keeps your
food fresh longer than any other system
available.
With dual refrigeration, the freezer maintains
a constant temperature within one degree of
the temperature you set within our range of
-5˚F (-21˚C) to +5˚F (-15˚C), without unwanted
moisture and odor from the refrigerator. Similarly, you can adjust the refrigerator temperature within a range of 34˚F (1˚C) to 45˚F (7˚C),
for proper humidity levels tailored for longer
food life expectancy.
The dual refrigeration system also means
there is no transfer of fresh food odors to
frozen food or ice. The Sub-Zero system does
not freeze the moisture out of the air in the
fresh food section.
Sub-Zero dual refrigeration is also more
energy efficient than old-fashioned single
refrigeration systems. When the refrigerator
is used frequently during the day it does not
require the freezer to circulate its very cold,
dry air to the refrigerator. Instead, the refrigerator uses moist air to keep fresh foods fr
esh
and energy use minimal.

ELECTRONIC CONTROL SYSTEM
The Electronic Control System of your
Sub-Zero Built-In unit monitors and accurately
isplays temperatures within one degree of
d
your preset temperature. It also monitors operation of the unit and lets you know if there’s a
roblem. You’ll find the Control Center located
p
in the refrigerator section of all models, except
Model 601F where it is in the freezer section.
Refer to the illustrations below.
TEMPERATURE CONTROL
our new refrigerator/freezer was thoroughly
Y
inspected and tested before it was shipped
from the Sub-Zero factory. Temperatures are
reset at 38˚F (3˚C) in the refrigerator section
p
and 0˚F (-18˚C) in the freezer section.
For combination units, there are two sets of
WARMER
and
COLDER
key pads on the
Control Center, one for the refrigerator section
and the other for the freezer section. Models
601R, 601RG and 601F have only one set of
WARMER
and
COLDER
key pads.
To adjust the temperature in either section,
depress the
WARMER
or
COLDER
key pads
on the Control Center.
The temperature ranges are -5˚F (-21˚C) to +5˚F
(-15˚C) in the freezer section, and 34˚F (1˚C) to
45˚F (7˚C) in the refrigerator section. It is
normal for temperatures to fluctuate slightly,
depending on external influences such as an
open door, the degree of humidity and room
temperature.

IMPORTANT NOTE:
Always allow 24 hours
for the refrigerator to reach the temperature
you set.
