What Closed Padlock Icon Means

Bertazzoni's touch-display refrigeration shows a padlock beside the temperature settings. An open yellow padlock means you can scroll and set the temperature; a closed one means a function such as Vacation or Shopping FlexMode is running and has taken control of the set points until it finishes or is canceled.

Common Causes of Closed Padlock Icon

  • Vacation, Shopping or a similar timed function left running
  • A function programmed to start later and now active without anyone noticing
  • A function reactivated automatically after the appliance was switched back on

🔧 One Safe Check You Can Try

Open the Functions menu and look for whichever mode is active, then either let it run its course or switch it off - the padlock opens again on its own once no function is holding the settings.

⚠ Why You Shouldn't Go Further Than That

  • There is no problem behind the padlock, so a service call booked against it is a wasted visit that only confirms the display is behaving correctly.
  • If no function shows as active and the padlock stays closed, that is a display or control question, and it is diagnosed with the appliance off its supply rather than by pressing harder.

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.

Closed Padlock Icon FAQ

Because a function is holding it. The padlock is the display telling you that, rather than a lock you switched on yourself.

Bertazzoni notes that some functions have to be reactivated after an extended power loss, so a cut can end the function and reopen the padlock.
