If the Control Lock indicator is lit, unlock the panel first. ### Why is my Dacor column not cooling when it shows oF? oF means Cooling Off, or Shop, mode is active. The fan and lights run but the compressors stay off, so nothing gets cold. The compressors are idle on purpose, not because anything broke. ### How do I get my Dacor out of oF mode? Unlock the panel if Control Lock is on, then hold Deodorizer Reset, Filter Reset and Override together for 5 seconds. A chime sounds and the temperature returns to the display. Give it several hours to reach temperature. --- **[Read on the site: Dacor refrigerator showing oF | RefrigeratorRepair.center](https://refrigeratorrepair.center/error-codes/dacor-of/)** **[Book a visit with RefrigeratorRepair.center](https://refrigeratorrepair.center/schedule/)**
