Demo Mode - Side by Side Refrigerator

Exiting Demo or Showroom Mode on a Whirlpool Refrigerator

Demo or Showroom mode allows you to try the product and explore various features and options on the appliance without turning on the functionality (i.e. cooling). A dealer can set this up in a store to show how the unit operates. If left in that mode from the store, you must turn it "off" for normal operation. 

Setting and Removing Demo Mode will vary by model number. Below, we have highlighted different methods, but refer to the Owner's Manual for specific instructions for your model. 

Dispenser or Control Type Directions for Entering or Exiting
