What Or / on / oF means

On Dacor DRF36 French door refrigerators, Or, on and oF are not an error. They show the Override setting, which tells the refrigerator to ignore a Smart Grid signal. When Override is switched on, the display shows Or and on for 5 seconds; when it is switched off, it shows Or and oF for 5 seconds. If Or shows alone in the freezer display, the refrigerator has received a Smart Grid signal. Nothing is broken in either case.

Common causes of Or / on / oF

  • Override was turned on or off by holding the Override key
  • A Smart Grid signal reached the refrigerator, which shows Or alone on the freezer display
  • The key was touched by accident while cleaning
✓ One safe check you can try

1. Read the display: Or with on means Override just turned on, and Or with oF means it just turned off. 2. To change the setting, press and hold Override for 3 seconds. 3. If Or sits alone on the freezer display, a Smart Grid signal has been received and no action is needed. 4. If the refrigerator is not cooling for another reason, call us.

! Why to stop there
  • The messages themselves need no repair, so what stays uncertain is only whether the refrigerator is cooling normally.
  • If the cabinet is warm or the display is stuck, we check the keypad, the control and the cooling system.
  • We give a written price before any work, and our repairs carry a 30-day workmanship warranty.
Opening a panel yourself does not automatically cancel a manufacturer warranty, but it can cause accidental damage, and some manufacturers set their own service conditions. Check your warranty terms, or ask us, before deciding.
Or / on / oFOr / on / oF questions
What do Or, on and oF mean on my Dacor refrigerator?

They report the Override setting. Or and on appear for 5 seconds when Override is activated, and Or and oF for 5 seconds when it is deactivated. They are status messages, not an error.

Why does Or show alone in the freezer display?

An Or alone in the freezer display means the refrigerator received a Smart Grid signal. It is informational, and nothing needs to be repaired or reset.

How do I switch Override on or off?

Press and hold the Override key for 3 seconds to toggle it. The display then confirms the new setting for 5 seconds, so you can see whether it is on or off.
