2.8. ECO NIGHT FUNCTION
(NIGHT TIME RATE) *
The Eco Night function enables appliance energy
consumption to be concentrated in the reduced rate
hours (generally at night), when electricity is readily
available and costs less than during the daytime (only
in countries that utilise a time based multi-rate system -
check energy rates with the local electricity company).
To activate the function, press the button at the
reduced rate start time (depending on the specific
rates plan). For example, if the reduced rate starts at
8 p.m., press the button at that time. When the Eco
Night indicator is ON, the function is ON. Once
the function is activated, the appliance automatically
adapts energy consumption according to the time
selected, i.e. consuming less energy during the day
than at night.
IMPORTANT: To operate properly, the function must
be on during the night and day. The function remains
on until deactivated (or it is deactivated in case of a
power failure or appliance switch-off). To deactivate
the function, press the button again. When the
Eco Night indicator is OFF, the function is OFF.
Note: The declared appliance energy consumption
refers to operation with the Eco Night function
deactivated.
