--- title: "Asko refrigerator showing E9 | RefrigeratorRepair.center" description: "What E9 means on Asko refrigerators, what to check before booking, and when it is not a failure at all." url: "https://refrigeratorrepair.center/error-codes/asko-e9-r31442i/" --- # Asko refrigerator showing E9 On the R31442I, E9 first of all means a door has stood open too long: after ten minutes the open-door alarm gives way to E9, the LED lighting goes out and the unit switches to safe mode. ## What E9 actually means. On the R31442I, E9 first of all means a door has stood open too long: after ten minutes the open-door alarm gives way to E9, the LED lighting goes out and the unit switches to safe mode. If E9 stays after the door is shut and the compartment light still does not work, Asko reads that as a defective door sensor. ASKO refrigerator display What to do when E9 shows on the refrigerator ### Kind of code Mode, not a failure A setting somebody chose, or an alert it raised on purpose — a showroom mode, a door or power alarm. Nothing has broken and no part is needed. ### Usually leads to No repair Close every door firmly and look for a shelf, drawer or package that is holding one open. ### Shows up as Refrigerator Door Not Sealing A gap of a few millimeters is enough to frost an evaporator and run a compressor continuously. ### Make ASKO Scandinavian integrated refrigeration, mostly behind furniture panels. ### Source Asko Instructions for use, model R31442I, troubleshooting table (PDF on the Gorenje Group document server) Asko R31442I. On the RBR276 family E9 refers only to the door sensor, with no open-door stage. ## Before you book, in this order. Each step comes from ASKO's own guidance for E9 on its refrigerators. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit. 01 Close every door firmly and look for a shelf, drawer or package that is holding one open. 02 Open the door for a moment to see whether the compartment light comes back on. 03 If E9 remains and the light stays dark, book a visit for the door sensor; the unit keeps cooling in safe mode meanwhile. ### Cleared? Nothing needed repairing. If the refrigerator does not settle back to temperature, that is a separate problem. ### What not to do A dark interior during E9 does not by itself mean a burned-out light. This model switches its own lighting off once a door has been open for ten minutes. ## What you may notice with it. The refrigerator problem E9 tends to arrive with.

Close every door firmly and look for a shelf, drawer or package that is holding one open. ### Why did my Asko R31442I show E9 and turn its light off? After a door stands open for ten minutes, this model swaps the open-door alarm for E9, shuts off the LED lighting and enters safe mode. Closing the door is the first step before anything else is suspected. ### When does E9 on the R31442I mean a part needs replacing? When the door is closed, E9 remains and the compartment light still does not come on, Asko points at the door sensor. The refrigerator keeps cooling in safe mode until a technician replaces it. --- **[Read on the site: Asko refrigerator showing E9 | RefrigeratorRepair.center](https://refrigeratorrepair.center/error-codes/asko-e9-r31442i/)** **[Book a visit with RefrigeratorRepair.center](https://refrigeratorrepair.center/schedule/)**
