What Door Unit OPEN
actually means.
Door Unit OPEN appears a few minutes after the Bertazzoni freezer column door is opened. It is a prompt to close the door before warm air raises the temperature.

What to do when Door Unit OPEN shows on the freezerKind of codeMode, not a failure
A setting the freezer was put into, often by accident or by the store it came from, rather than a part that broke: a showroom or demo mode that lights the display while the compressor stays off, a fast freeze left running for days, a Sabbath setting that silences the alarms, a control lock, a door alarm reminding you the door stood open. Nothing has worn out, and the freezer's own buttons or manual put it back.
Usually leads toNo repair
Close the door and check that a drawer or shelf item is not holding it off the gasket.
Shows up asFreezer Door or Lid Not Sealing
A freezer door or lid not sealing shows as a gap you can see or feel, a gasket that no longer grips, a lid that springs back up, or a door that swings open again after you push it.

Before you book,
in this order.
Each step comes from Bertazzoni's own guidance for Door Unit OPEN on its freezers. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.
Close the door and check that a drawer or shelf item is not holding it off the gasket.
Wipe the gasket and the cabinet face where they meet if the door does not close with a firm seal.
Book a visit if the message shows with the door fully closed.
Cleared?
The freezer is holding its temperature again and no part had to be replaced. If the same code comes back within a few days, or the packages start to soften again, book it as a fresh problem.
What not to do
Door Unit OPEN is not a temperature warning by itself. If the column is also warm with the door shut, the cooling needs a separate check.
