What EC30
actually means.
EC30 with the word Service flashing concerns the ice maker, not cooling. The ice maker has shut itself off because its water valve solenoid was switched on too many times. Sub-Zero offers no owner fix for this one.

Before you book,
in this order.
Each step comes from Sub-Zero's own guidance for EC30 on its refrigerators. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.
Turn the ice maker off so the problem does not get worse.
Note the code and the current fresh food and freezer temperatures.
Book a service visit and give them both the code and the temperatures.
What not to do
It is not a warning that the refrigerator is warming up. Cooling is a separate matter unless another code appears.
