Fix at homeHigh temperature alarm
Not a fault by itself. The freezer went above 26°F or the fresh-food section above 55°F for over an hour — a door left open, a long outage, or a box still pulling down after it was first plugged in.
- Both doors and the freezer drawer are shut and nothing inside is holding one open — a bag, a shelf pushed out, a bin not seated.
- The gaskets seal: close a dollar bill in the door and pull; it should drag all the way around.
- The box is cooling: a hand on the back wall of the freezer feels cold and the fan runs when the door switch is pressed.
- A refrigerator just installed or just moved needs 24 hours to reach temperature; the alarm clears on its own.
Press Alarm Reset to mute it; it stays lit until the section is back in range, then goes out by itself. A box that is cold at the back and still warm up front is airflow — pull the freezer out and let the air through. A box that never gets cold with the doors shut is a fault, not a state — see SY EF, or a sealed-system call.
