Error code F144
Appliance Refrigerator
Quick answer

F144 on a Miele refrigerator means the freezer compartment door has been open for 15 minutes.

Model compatibility

Miele reuses codes across series and model years, so F144 may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.

Plain language

What this code means

Freezer compartment door open for 15 minutes.

A Miele refrigerator shows F144 once the freezer compartment door has stayed open for 15 minutes.

What to do

Close the freezer compartment door; the alarm stops as soon as it is shut.

The door alarm described in the KFNS 7734 D operating instructions from Miele is the matching feature. Left open too long, the freezer door brings up an alarm symbol, a sound and flashing interior lighting. Tapping OK silences it early, though it sounds again about 1 minute later while the door is still open. You can lengthen the delay before it triggers or turn the sound off under further settings. That manual shows a symbol and does not print F144.
