# Victory LO: the cabinet is below its low temperature alarm

LO is raised when the cabinet drops below its low limit.

## What LO actually means.

LO is raised when the cabinet drops below its low limit. On a Victory cooler that can freeze produce; on a Victory warming cabinet it is the alarm that matters most, because hot food that cools into the danger zone is a food safety problem.

What to do when LO shows on the commercial appliance

### Kind of code Temperature and alarms

The controller has seen a temperature outside the band it was set for and is saying so: a box above its alarm point, a fryer vat or an oven cavity that tripped its high-limit, or a dish machine rinse that never came up to heat. Often the cause sits outside the unit, such as a door left open during a delivery, a coil packed with grease, a kitchen far hotter than the maker allows or a booster fed cold water. Checking the door, the coil and the air around the unit is fair; move the product if a cold box stays above 41°F, and book the visit.

### Usually leads to Reach-in and prep table repair

Reach-ins, pass-throughs, prep tables and blast chillers: gaskets, hinges, fans, thermostats, condensers and compressors.

### Shows up as Commercial Appliance Error Code on a Combi, Fryer, Dish Machine or Laundry Display

A commercial appliance error code appears as letters or numbers on a combi, fryer, reach-in controller, dish machine or laundry machine display, or as a flashing light or an alarm tone.

### Make Victory

Victory cabinets in an institutional or hotel kitchen are visited with the kitchen manager on hand to confirm the temperature log.

### Source Victory RS and RSA reach-in installation and operating instructions, 809-190A rev. H (02/05/2026)

From the alarm code table of the Carel control in Victory's RS/RSA reach-in manual (809-190A rev. H, 2026); the HS/HIS warming cabinet manual carries the same table.

## Before you book, in this order.

Each step comes from Victory's own guidance for LO on its commercial appliances. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.

01

On a warming cabinet, probe the food right away and reheat or discard as your health code directs.

02

On a cooler, check the set point and move items that are freezing.

03

Check that the door closes fully.

04

If LO keeps returning, book a visit.

### Still there?

It usually turns into [reach-in and prep table repair](https://commercialappliancerepair.center/services/reach-in-and-prep-table-repair/). Book with the code and the model number.

### What not to do

LO is not a probe failure; those are E1 to E7 and rE. It resets automatically when the temperature comes back into range.

## What you may notice with it.

## Questions about LO.

### Can I clear LO myself?

On a warming cabinet, probe the food right away and reheat or discard as your health code directs. If it comes back, it needs a visit.

### What does LO mean on a Victory warming cabinet?

The cabinet is cooler than its low limit, so the held food may be losing heat. Check it with a probe thermometer first.

### Why is my Victory cooler showing LO overnight?

A low set point or a control that does not stop cooling can pull the cabinet down when the doors stay shut all night.

### Does LO on a Victory sound the buzzer?

Yes. Victory's table shows the icon, the alarm relay and the buzzer all active for LO.
