How do i get my Kenmore Elite freezer out of demo mode

My freezer does not seem to be keeping things frozen. We are having some work done on the house and the power may have gotten turned off for some time yesterday. Today we discoverd the food was not completely frozen toward the top of the freezer. The display reads 0 and it says demo in the lower right hand corner.

Which model freezer do you have?

A few possible resets: press and hold the Set and + keys for 5+ seconds. On some models, that will get the freezer out of demo mode. On other models, it's the Set and Down arrow. For a few models, it's the Options and Up arrow. In all cases, it's press and hold both buttons until the unit responds.

I hope you will add a comment with the model of your freezer so that I can determine which set of instructions will work for your unit.

Freezer and frig not coo0ling. Blinking red lite in freezer. Sounds like fan or motor running. We had a storm come thru yesterday. we have electricity on the appliance.

It sounds like you have one of two issues there. Maybe you need to turn it off and wait for 10 minutes for it to reset (compressor has "vapor-locked" and the freon is not able to circulate through the compressor). The other option to try is that the refrigerator has entered into "demo" mode. This is the mode that it is usually put into in stores so that the compressor is not running, but all other things work for demonstration on a showroom floor. A voltage spike might have shocked it into the demo mode and will work in all ways except for a blinking light indicating the demo mode as well as no compressor activity to cool anything... Look in your operator manual to see if they mention the demo mode and how to enter and exit it.

Hope that helps.. I have seen both of these situations though.

The alarm keeps going off. Food is frozen fine just alarm

That alarm is there for a reason. Grab your owner's manual and see the different things it can mean. If the gas is getting low, that could be it, and you'll want to solve it as early as you can.

Sometimes a power surge or brown out can make that alarm go off. Try unplugging it for 5 minutes.
