What Power failure LED
actually means.
When the power failure LED is lit and the freezer temperature is flashing, the freezer warmed up too much during a power cut in the last few hours or days. This is the FrostControl display. It records what happened while the power was off. It does not mean the appliance has failed.

Check the food, since some of it may have got too warm or thawed.

Cleared?

Liebherr refrigerator repair
Built-in refrigerator
Flush with the cabinets, serviced from the front, and almost always repaired rather than replaced.
Refrigerator column
Separate refrigerator and freezer towers, each with its own sealed system — so a failure stays on one side.
Undercounter refrigerator
A single 15 to 24 inch unit under the worktop — front-vented, tightly enclosed, and easily starved of air.
In Liebherr's own words
freezer temperature has risen too high during the last few hours or days due to a power failure.
