On the Viking Fully Integrated wine cellar FDWCIC7240, the display shows Power Failure after an extended interruption of electrical power. The cellar restarts on its own and shows the highest temperatures recorded during the outage, so you can judge whether the bottles stayed in a safe range. The message reports what happened to the supply, not a defect in the cellar.
1. Silence the sound if the alarm is on. 2. Read the highest temperatures shown. 3. Check the bottles for warmth and any leaks around corks. 4. Confirm the plug is seated and the breaker is on. 5. If the message returns without an outage, call us.
Usually not. The cellar restarted by itself and is telling you the power was off. Check the bottles and call us only if it appears without an outage.
The highest readings reached while the power was off. Use them to judge whether your wine stayed in a safe range, and to decide which bottles to check first.
If the house loses power often, an electrician should look at the circuit. If the supply is steady and the message returns, we test the cellar.
A technician diagnoses it on site and gives you the price in writing before any work starts.
