What Vacation Mode Means
A setting that makes the fresh-food side warm on purpose. Thermador's French-door guide lists 58 F (14 C) for the refrigerator compartment and 40 F (4 C) for the freezer in vacation mode and says not to keep food in the refrigerator compartment while it is on.
Common Causes of Vacation Mode
- Vacation mode left on after a trip
- Mode selected by mistake in the settings menu
🔧 One Safe Check You Can Try
Switch vacation mode off in the settings and give the compartment a few hours to pull back down to your set temperature before restocking.
⚠ Why You Shouldn't Go Further Than That
- If the fresh-food side stays warm with vacation mode off, that is a real cooling problem to diagnose.
Opening a panel to inspect or repair something yourself doesn't automatically cancel your manufacturer's warranty — but it can risk accidental damage, and some manufacturers do have specific service conditions. Check your product's warranty terms, or ask us, before deciding.
