Quick answer

Model compatibility

Miele reuses codes across series and model years, so F141 may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.

At a glance

Code F141
What it means Fridge compartment door open for 15 minutes.
What you can check Shut the fridge compartment door and watch for the alarm symbol and tone to stop. Tapping OK silences it early, but it returns in around 1 minute if the door stays open.
When to call a technician If F141 appears even though the door is shut, book a service visit. Make sure the door is fully closed first.

Owner step

  1. Shut the fridge compartment door.
  2. Watch for the alarm symbol and the tone to stop.

Miele’s operating instructions for the KFNS 7734 D describe a door alarm that works this way, with a symbol in place of the code text. It exists to avoid extra energy use and food getting warm. Besides the tone, the interior lighting flashes. Tapping OK ends the alarm early, and the light stays lit, but if the door is not closed the alarm returns in around 1 minute. Both how long the door may stay open and whether the tone sounds are adjustable in the settings menu.

Related alerts
