# Perlick DO1: the wine reserve door is open

DO1 is the G5 short-period door alarm.

## What DO1 actually means.

DO1 is the G5 short-period door alarm. Perlick’s only instruction is to close the door. It is an early nudge, and it can turn into DO2 if the door stays open.

Perlick wine cooler display

What to do when DO1 shows on the wine cooler

### Kind of code Door 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.

### Usually leads to Wine cooler glass door and gasket repair

Replacing a torn or flattened gasket, resetting a door that no longer closes square, and repairing the glass door that keeps light, heat and humid air away from the bottles.

### 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.

### Make Perlick

## Before you book, in this order.

Each step comes from Perlick's own guidance for DO1 on its wine coolers. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.

01

Push the door until it latches fully.

02

Make sure a rack or bottle is not sticking out past the door line.

03

DO1 on a latched door suggests the door switch; book a visit.

### Still there?

It usually turns into [wine cooler glass door and gasket repair](https://winecoolerrepair.center/services/glass-door-and-gasket-repair/). Book with the code and the model number.

### What not to do

DO1 reports the door, not the cooling, and clears by itself once the door shuts. The long-period version, DO2, adds a defrost step.

## What you may notice with it.

## Questions about DO1.

### Can I clear DO1 myself?

Push the door until it latches fully. If it comes back, it needs a visit.

### How can I check whether my Perlick thinks the door is open?

The diagnostic window in the service menu shows the door switch as OPEN or CLOSED. If it reads OPEN with the door shut, the switch needs a look.

### Does DO1 stay in the alarm history?

Yes. The G5 keeps the last ten alarms with a date and time stamp.

### Is DO1 the same as DO2?

No. DO1 is the short-period alert; DO2 means the door was open long enough that Perlick asks you to run a defrost.
