ENERGY EFFICIENCY
Your refrigerator has been designed to be energy-effi
cient
and can operate in three modes: Normal, Eco and
Holiday.
Normal mode
Normal mode is used when the
refrigerator door is often opened. It’s the
default mode of your refrigerator.
Eco mode
Eco mode can be used if you don’t open
your refrigerator door a lot. It is activated
in one of two ways:
– by manually pressing the eco/holiday button once when
in normal mode, or,
– by automatically activates after 30 hours if the refrigerator
door has not been opened.
The leaf icon will appear on the electronic display when
eco mode is on. If eco mode is activated automatically, the
refrigerator will revert to normal mode once the refrigerator
door is opened.
If eco mode is entered manually, opening the door will not
revert it back to normal mode. To exit eco mode, simply
press the eco/holiday button until the word “normal” is
displayed.
Use Eco mode when you’re not using the refrigerator all
the time (eg. as a long-term storage refrigerator). If the door
is going to be opened a lot, switch back to normal mode.
Remember, if eco mode is turned on manually, it won’t
switch off automatically.
Holiday mode
Use this button when you go on holiday
or leave the house for long periods.
The refrigerator minimises defrosting to save energy but
maintains your temperature settings. To put the refrigerator
into holiday mode, press the eco/holiday mode button
until the aeroplane icon appears. The holiday mode will
operate until the button is pressed again or the refrigerator
door is opened.
