Double dashes (--) shown on the Sub-Zero control panel indicate that the affected zone has been disabled. This is recommended when cleaning a unit.

  • To disable a zone:
    1. Touch Power to turn off the unit.
    2. Press and hold the Warmer key of the section to be disabled. While holding the Warmer key, press the Power key. Then, release both keys.
    3. Double dashes appear in the control panel display.
  • To turn a zone back on, repeat the above process. The dashes disappear when the zone is on.
  • If the unit does not respond using the control panel:
    1. Power the unit off at the circuit breaker.
    2. Turn the circuit breaker back on and turn the unit back on to see if normal operation returns.
