Questions
about Flashing light at the rear.

Can I clear Flashing light at the rear myself?
Time the flashes against a clock. If it comes back, it needs a visit.
Is the light flashing on the back of my Liebherr a warning?
Not if it blinks once every 15 seconds, which is the normal running signal on models with a speed-controlled compressor. Time it against a clock to be sure. A steady 15-second rhythm needs no action.
What does it mean if the rear light on my Liebherr flashes faster or slower?
Any interval other than 15 seconds means emergency mode or a defect, according to Liebherr. Contact customer service in that case. Only models with a speed-controlled compressor have this light.
