U-Line builds a showroom mode into its wine units so they can sit lit on a sales floor. In this mode the compressor and fans stay off while the control and lights work. It is turned on and off by holding two buttons for five seconds, so it can be switched on by accident while cleaning. U-Line wine cooler display · also shown as flashing degree symbol What to do when Showroom mode shows on the wine cooler ### Kind of code Mode, 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 to No repair Look for a flashing degree symbol; U-Line uses that to show the mode is on. ### 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 U-Line U-Line wine cooler repair for undercounter cabinets that leak, frost up or stop holding a steady temperature. ### Source U-Line HWC515 User Guide & Service Manual (5 Class Wine Captain) U-Line 1, 3 and 5 Class and 2000 Series wine units with the touch control.

Look for a flashing degree symbol; U-Line uses that to show the mode is on. ### How did my U-Line get into showroom mode? The same two-button hold that turns it on can happen while wiping the control panel. It stays on until you turn it off. ### Is showroom mode the same as Sabbath mode? No. Sabbath mode keeps cooling with the lights and display dark. Showroom mode keeps the lights on and stops cooling. ### Will showroom mode hurt the wine? Only by letting it warm to room temperature. Switch it off as soon as you notice the flashing degree symbol. --- **[Read on the site: U-Line showroom mode: the display works but the wine unit does not cool](https://winecoolerrepair.center/error-codes/u-line-showroom-mode/)** **[Book a visit with WineCoolerRepair.center](https://winecoolerrepair.center/schedule/)**
