Before you book,
in this order.

Each step comes from Samsung's own guidance for All icons flashing on its refrigerators. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.

01

Leave it alone and let the check finish.

02

Avoid pressing buttons while it runs.

03

If a numbered code remains once the flashing stops, look that code up separately.

Cleared?

Nothing needed repairing. If the refrigerator does not settle back to temperature, that is a separate problem.

Questions
about All icons flashing.

Can I clear All icons flashing myself?
Leave it alone and let the check finish.
How long do all icons flash on a Samsung after power returns?
They flash while the self-check runs, and Samsung treats that as normal. Leave the buttons alone until the flashing stops.
What if a code stays after the icons stop flashing on my Samsung?
Then that numbered code is a separate message and should be looked up on its own. The flashing itself was only the self-check.

Still showing All icons flashing?

Book with the exact characters, the full model number, and whether it is still cooling — on a code, that is the whole starting point.
