What Lockout Mode
actually means.
Lockout Mode is a Café feature for when you are away and want to know if someone opens the wine cooler. The door alarm sounds the moment the door opens, the interior light stays off, and a connected unit can send a notice to the app.

What to do when Lockout Mode shows on the wine coolerKind of codeMode, not a failure
A setting someone switched on, often by leaning on the touch panel or left over from the showroom floor, rather than a part that wore out: a demo mode that lights the display and the rack lamps while the cooling never starts, a Sabbath setting that turns off the lights and alarms, a child or control lock that ignores every key press, a reminder that the glass door stood open. The cabinet is fine, and its own keys or its manual switch the mode back off.
Usually leads toNo repair
Turn the mode off in the Café app, or hold plus and Control Lock together for 3 seconds on the panel.
Shows up asWine Cooler Error Code
A wine cooler error code appears as letters and digits on the display, a flashing temperature, dashes where a number should be or a blinking symbol, sometimes with an alarm tone and sometimes while the cabinet stays perfectly cool.

Before you book,
in this order.
Each step comes from Café's own guidance for Lockout Mode on its wine coolers. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.
Turn the mode off in the Café app, or hold plus and Control Lock together for 3 seconds on the panel.
Open the door again; the light should come on and the alarm should stay quiet.
If the alarm still sounds on every opening with the mode off, book a visit to check the door switch and control.
Cleared?
The display has gone quiet and the cabinet is back at its setting without a new part. Should the code reappear this week, or the reds start feeling warm again, book a visit and mention that it came back.
What not to do
Lockout Mode is not the child control lock, which only blocks the keys. It is also not a sign that the door switch has failed; the unit is doing what the mode asks.
