Miele Refrigerator Error Code FP

FP stands for Factory Production and indicates the refrigerator is in a factory self-test mode. It is not a real fault code and does not mean anything is wrong with the appliance. The code appears when the unit cannot meet the specific conditions required to complete the factory test. Pressing the s button clears the code and returns the refrigerator to normal operation.

No, the FP code poses no safety concern. It is a factory test mode indicator, not a warning about a refrigeration failure, electrical issue, or any hazardous condition. Your food and the appliance are not at risk while this code is displayed.

There is no repair cost associated with the FP code because it is not a malfunction. No parts or service labor are needed. The only action required is pressing the s button on the control panel, which resolves the code at no cost.

To clear the FP code, simply press the s button on the refrigerator control panel. This exits the factory production test mode and restores normal operation. No tools, parts, or technician assistance are required.

The correct way to clear the FP code is by pressing the s button, not by performing a general power reset. A power reset alone may not exit the factory test mode and could allow the code to reappear. Using the s button is the proper method to exit this mode.
