What Does Error Code OF OF Mean on a Samsung Refrigerator?

Demo / Cooling Off (shop) mode — not a fault code.

Your refrigerator is in Demo mode (also called Cooling Off or Shop mode). This is a showroom setting: the lights and display work normally but the compressor and cooling are intentionally disabled so the unit can be displayed without running. It is NOT a malfunction. It is usually triggered accidentally by holding the energy-saver/freezer buttons, or set at the store before delivery.

Here are the most common causes in order of frequency. Start with the most likely cause before moving to the next:
