Energy efficiency
Your refrigerator has been designed to be energy-efficient
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.
NOTE: Opening the freezer door won't effect the operation
of either Eco or Holiday modes.
Eco and Holiday Modes minimise defrosting to save energy,
while maintaining your temperature settings.
