Bertazzoni Power Failure: the column lost power for a long time

When power comes back after a long interruption, the Bertazzoni column restarts on its own, sounds a signal if the temperature rose above normal, and shows the highest temperature measured in each compartment for one minute.

What Power Failure
actually means.

When power comes back after a long interruption, the Bertazzoni column restarts on its own, sounds a signal if the temperature rose above normal, and shows the highest temperature measured in each compartment for one minute. After that the display returns to normal while the Alarm button keeps blinking until you acknowledge it.

What to do when Power Failure shows on the wine cooler

Before you book,
in this order.

Each step comes from Bertazzoni's own guidance for Power Failure on its wine coolers. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.

01

Read the highest recorded temperatures before they disappear, or press Alarm to show them again.

02

Decide from those figures whether any bottles were exposed to heat for long.

03

Press Alarm to acknowledge the message.

04

If the column does not return to its set temperatures within a day, book a visit.

Still there?

It usually turns into wine cooler diagnostic visit. Book with the code and the model number.

What not to do

Nothing inside the column has broken when Power Failure shows; the message only reports the outage and its effect. If the display stays dark after power returns, that is a separate power or board problem.

Questions
about Power Failure.

Can I clear Power Failure myself?
Read the highest recorded temperatures before they disappear, or press Alarm to show them again. If it comes back, it needs a visit.
How do I see how warm my Bertazzoni got during the outage?
The display shows the highest recorded temperature for one minute after power returns. Press the blinking Alarm button to see it again.
Is my wine spoiled after a Bertazzoni Power Failure message?
Look at the highest recorded temperature. A few hours a little above cellar temperature rarely harms wine; days near room heat are a bigger concern.
Do I need to reset my Bertazzoni settings after a power cut?
No. The column restarts automatically with its settings, and the Alarm button only needs pressing to acknowledge the message.

Back to your everyday

Still showing Power Failure?

When you book, copy the code or the blink pattern as the display shows it, add the whole model number, and say whether the bottles still feel cool — a code gives the technician a head start.
