SMART FUNCTIONS

Smart Grid Function

When the refrigerator operates in Smart Grid mode,
the Smart Refrigerator function can control energy
usage or delay the operation of some functions to
save energy during peak usage periods.
• You can override the Smart Grid function any time
(using the Smart Grid button or application).
• To use the Smart Grid function, you need to register
your appliance with your electric utility company.
Smart Grid Application Features
Smart Saving_Demand Response
You can lower energy usage based on Demand
Response (DR) signals from the utility company. If
the refrigerator is operating in Smart Saving mode
according to the DR signal, you can see a pop up.
Seasonal Energy Savings
Lower energy usage based on time period.
Using the Smart Grid Function
This feature responds to notification events from your
utility company to run high energy consuming tasks
during off-peak periods when demand is lower. These
notification events are known as Demand Response
signals.
If the refrigerator receives a Demand Response
signal from the utility company, the refrigerator will
turn on the Grid LED on the refrigerator display and
control its power consumption according to the signal.
The refrigerator will respond to the signals received
from the utility company as long as product
performance is maintained.
If the refrigerator receives a Demand Response
signal, the refrigerator will operate in Delay Appliance
Load (DAL) or Temporary Appliance Load Reduction
(TALR) mode.
Delay Appliance Load (DAL)
The refrigerator responds to a DAL signal by
providing a moderate load reduction for the duration
of the delay period.
This mode controls functions that consume a lot of
energy such as adjusting the cooling system, running
the defrost cycle, and making ice.
• When the refrigerator operates in DAL mode, the
Grid LED is illuminated on the refrigerator display.
• DAL mode is automatically deactivated after the
period stipulated by the DAL signal (max. 4 hours)
or when you override the Smart Grid function.
