Liebherr wine cabinets filter their air through a FreshAir activated charcoal filter.

What to do when Replace FreshAir activated charcoal filter shows on the wine cooler

### Kind of code Fans and airflow

A fan the control expected to turn is slow, noisy or still. Inside the cabinet a small fan stirs the air so every rack sits at the same temperature; behind the grille or on the back, another carries heat away from the compressor or the hot side of a thermoelectric module. A bottle nudged against the inner fan guard, ice on a blade and dust packed into the grille are cleared before any motor is replaced.

### Usually leads to Wine cooler fan repair

Replacing the fan that circulates air across the racks, or the one that cools the condenser, when a wine cooler warms unevenly, ticks, buzzes or falls silent.

### Shows up as Wine 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.
