Energy Saving Function
The Energy Saving function can be activated to optimise energy consumption while maintaining the

conditions, the display remains off even when the door is opened.
The function is activated by pressing and holding the super freezer and FRZ (+) buttons simultaneously
for at least 6 seconds. Once the function has been activated, all LEDs will light up for 2 seconds to confirm
activation, and the temperature setting of +5, -18 will appear on the display. The display switches off after
5 seconds. To change the temperature, simply press the + and – buttons until you have reached the
desired temperature.
However, the Energy Saving function can also be disabled by switching the product off using the ON/OFF
button. When it is switched back on, the Energy Saving will be disabled.
In humid environments, when the Energy Saving function is enabled, slight condensation may form on
the appliance door; normal operating conditions are restored when the function is disabled.
