What we can confirm

## Code Temperature alarm, from the manufacturer’s own documentation

This code has no number, because this equipment has no display to put one on. The appliance signals it instead — an alarm, a symbol or a pattern of lights — and what it means is recorded in the documentation that ships with it.

					A column that is warmer than it should be, running constantly, or alarming. This make publishes no refrigeration error codes at all, so what the cabinet signals is the diagnosis.

## About Thermador refrigerator error code: temperature alarm

### What this one means

The cabinet has been warmer than its setting, and the column is telling you so rather than showing a number. This is a code without a number: the refrigeration columns have no display to put one on, so the appliance signals it instead. This make publishes no numeric codes for its refrigeration at all, and what this one means comes from the manufacturer’s own documentation rather than from us.

### How it shows on the display

There is no number to write down here, so this is what to look for:

- **The set temperature flashing with the ALARM symbol lit**
- **An audible signal, when the tone is switched on**

### What sets it off

An alarm is deliberately broad — it tells you the cabinet noticed something, not which part is responsible. This one comes on for:

- A power failure while you were out
- A large load of unchilled food put in at once
- A door left open, or a seal that is not closing
- A genuine cooling problem in the column

### What to try yourself

- Press the ALARM button — the signal stops and the highest temperature the cabinet reached is shown for a few seconds, which tells you whether the food was ever at risk
- Note whether the alarm clears on its own as the cabinet pulls back down; that separates a warm load from a repair

### Then what

The highest-temperature reading is the useful part, and it is gone once the display returns, so read it before you clear anything. A column that alarms with the door shut, no power cut and a normal load is the one to book.
