What Door alarm
actually means.
On the PWS06D dual-zone wine chiller, the door alarm starts once the door has been open longer than 2 minutes and keeps sounding until it closes. A door that looks shut but keeps the alarm going is resting on something or not pulling in against its gasket.

What to do when Door alarm shows on the wine coolerKind of codeDoor and seal
The cooler noticed its door open for too long, or a switch that never reports it closing. Often a rack slid out a little too far holds the glass off the gasket, the cabinet has tipped forward off level, or a hinge has sagged under a heavy door; now and then the door switch itself has failed. Warm air getting in shows as fog on the glass and a zone that will not settle.

Before you book,
in this order.
Each step comes from GE Profile's own guidance for Door alarm on its wine coolers. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.
Close the door and push it firmly; the alarm should stop at once.
Check that no bottle in the bottom drawer is too tall, since GE warns tall bottles there can stop the door closing.
Make sure every extension drawer is pushed fully back past its stop.
If the door still will not seal, or the gasket is torn, book a visit.

What not to do
The door alarm does not mean the chiller has a cooling problem. Holding Light for 10 seconds silences it, but the door still needs to close properly to protect the wine.
