Abstract
In order to permit use of a refrigerator by observant Jews during Holiday times, Normal and Holiday modes are established. During Holiday mode, repetitive fixed frequency and fixed duty cycle time cycles are established, each time cycle having 'on' and 'off' portions. During “on” cycle portions current flow through the refrigerator is permitted as determined by the refrigerator compartment temperature. During “off” cycle portions current flow is inhibited irrespective of refrigerator compartment temperature changes. Visible indicators inform users of the status of the current cycle portion, thereby advising them to open the refrigerator door only during “off” cycle portions.
