Alarm beeping and temperature warning, but freezer appears to be cooling normally

Safety first: No internal access is required for basic checks.

Steps:

• 1. Check actual temperature: Use a separate thermometer to confirm the freezer is at or near the set temperature.
• 2. Reset alarm: Press the alarm off button according to the user manual. Some Miele models require holding the button for several seconds.
• 3. Inspect door history: Consider whether the door was left open or there was a recent power cut that could have triggered the alarm.
• 4. Monitor: If the alarm recurs without real temperature rise, a sensor or control fault may be present and should be diagnosed as per sensor-related entries.
