The middle zone frosting probe in your Bertazzoni wine cooler is reading as a short circuit, and the cooler is telling you with code E8.
The probe family
Bertazzoni’s table has six probe groups and twelve codes, with an odd number for open circuit and the even one next to it for short circuit. Frosting probes occupy these pairs:
You will hear the buzzer give three tics in a row. The code then flashes on the display every ten seconds, and the alarm repeats. Pressing the on/off key releases the alarm sound; the manual says a service technician handles the repair. A key press normally makes one tic, which is just feedback.
What the manual says
The manual gives no reset or owner check; leave the repair to a service technician.

If E8 keeps flashing, call (415) 692-0756. Please have the model number from the nameplate on hand.
Model compatibility: Bertazzoni reuses codes across series and model years, so E8 may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.
