It's obviously warning you of a probable service/temperature issue, Do not ignore it.
Consult your users manual to make sure some settings did not get changed. Check for proper closure of doors. Make sure condenser coils are kept clean. See users manual for location of coils

Could be warning you that the condenser coil is in need of cleaning. Under front by toe plate or in the back under fiber cover. Vacuum out all dust and make sure the air circulation fan is running when the compressor is in operation.

hi,

you can check a limit switch at its door. it is located usually at the door area inside.
maybe it is not working already or get stuck that is why it doesn't sense that the door is closed.

most of the time it is getting stuck and you can fix it by just pulling it out or other ways to do it.

hope that solves your problem.

Why does it keep beeping even though the doors are closed?

  1. Check to see if the fridge and the freezer are overfilled Over-stuffing in the freezer or the fridge or both of these compartments will prevent the doors from closing properly and which can cause the fridge's to set off the beeping alarm.
  2. Check the fridge door seals: Broken or damaged door seals may stop the fridge from closing all the way. This can also happen if the seals are dirty. Wipe clean the door seals with a soft cloth and warm and use soapy water and close the fridge doors. If the door still appears ajar then you have to replace the door seals.It is also quite possible that the inbuilt door-alarm which sets off if the fridge door is ajar for more than a few minutes has gone bad . This would need to be looked at by a qualified repair person . Until, you can call a repair person transfer all the food items to another cool place.
  3. Check the fridge balance: To work correctly the fridge must be placed on a levelled surface. Even a slight tilt in the fridge structure can set off the beeping alarm. Check to see if the fridge is balanced evenly.
  4. Check to see if the fridge exterior is warmer than usual: Check if there is adequate distance between the fridge and walls to allow for proper ventilation. If you have already ensured this and the fridge exterior still appears warmer than usual, have an appliance engineer to take look at the problem. If the beeping continues, switch-off the fridge.
  5. Check the freezer: If your fridge does not have an auto-defrost function then excessive ice-build up in the freezer can cause the beeping alarm to go off . If you see a lot of ice build-up in the icebox or freezer, switch off the fridge and let the ice thaw. Once the fridge is thawed, the beeping should stop.
  6. Have a repair person check the circuit board: It is possible that there is an issue with the appliance's circuit board. If so it will most likely need replacement.

My fridge alarm keeps on beeping. it is eleven beeps at a time about 2 minutes apart. How do i disable or deactivate this alarm. there is no alarm button on the panel.

Beeps from electronic appliances are indicators that usually have something to do with the motherboard giving an alert. They refer to a list that tells a technician what system requires attention.

Zanussi fridge freezer alarm keeps sounding

If the refrigerator and freezer are both working properly. Then the only problem would be the alarm, It's either the placement of the alarm thermometer or the alarm thermometer is stuck closed.
