What Door Alarm indicator blinking
actually means.

The Dacor column's door alarm is on from the factory. When a door stays open for more than 2 minutes the alarm sounds and the alarm indicator blinks, and after 10 minutes open the LED lamps turn off. The SmartThings app can send the same alert.

What to do when Door Alarm indicator blinking shows on the wine cooler

Before you book,
in this order.

Each step comes from Dacor's own guidance for Door Alarm indicator blinking on its wine coolers. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.

01

Close the door fully and check that the indicator stops blinking.

02

If the alarm returns with the door shut, look for a rack or bottle that keeps the door from sealing.

03

Check the gasket for a gap, and whether a push-to-open door has sprung back slightly.

04

If the door will not seal, book a visit.

What not to do

The blinking alarm indicator is not a cooling problem by itself. The Door Alarm button also switches between °F and °C when held for 3 seconds, so a changed scale is not an alarm.
