What OFF Means
On Dacor’s built-in French door refrigerators, the 36-, 42- and 48-inch DRF models, a flashing “OFF” in the temperature display means Cooling Off mode. The compressor stays off while lights and fans run.
Common Causes of OFF
- Cooling Off mode switched on
🔧 One Safe Check You Can Try
Dacor gives two button sets depending on the control type. Type A: hold AutoFill Pitcher, Whisky Ball Ice and Control Lock together for 5 seconds. Type B: hold Ice Maker, Filter Reset and Control Lock for 5 seconds. Repeat the same combination to exit.
⚠ Why You Shouldn't Go Further Than That
- No repair is involved unless the refrigerator stays warm after the mode is off.
Opening a panel to inspect or repair something yourself doesn't automatically cancel your manufacturer's warranty — but it can risk accidental damage, and some manufacturers do have specific service conditions. Check your product's warranty terms, or ask us, before deciding.
