timer. The timer will count down in 1 minute increments; 
you can change the time or turn the timer off even after the

buzzer will sound and the icon beside the alarm will flash 
until the alarm reset button is pressed.

of the freezer. If it is not cold enough, reset the wine chill 

function  (remembering  that  the  drink  is  already  partially 
chilled).

Energy Efficiency

Your refrigerator has been designed with energy efficiency 
in mind and can operate in any of three modes (Normal, 
Eco,  Vacation),  depending  on  the  level  of  efficiency 
sought.

Normal Mode

This is the mode which is entered automatically when the 
refrigerator is first turned on. Normal Mode is the mode 
most suitable when the refrigerator door is opened often.

Eco Mode

Eco  Mode  is  a  more  efficient 
mode  than  Normal  Mode  and 
can  be  entered  in  two  ways. 
Either  by  manually  pressing 
the  Eco  /  Vacation  button 
once  when  in  Normal  Mode, 
or automatically after 30 hours 
if the refrigerator door has not 
been  opened.  If  Eco  Mode  is 
entered manually, door openings will not cause the display 
to revert to Normal Mode, however if Eco Mode is entered 
automatically, the refrigerator will revert to Normal Mode 
once the refrigerator door is opened.

Vacation Mode

If  you  think  that  you  will  be 
away  from  your  refrigerator 
for  an  extended  period  and 
would  like  to  take  advantage 
of  maximum  energy  efficiency. 
Then,  from  Normal  Mode, 
press the Eco / Vacation button 
twice in succession just before 
you  leave  and  the  refrigerator 
will enter Vacation Mode, as indicated by the aeroplane 
symbol. (If in Eco Mode a single button press is all that is 
required to enter Vacation Mode).

Vacation Mode is exited automatically once the refrigerator 
door is opened and Normal Mode resumes.

Eco  and  Vacation  Modes  minimise  defrosting  to  save 
energy, while maintaining your temperature settings.

Note:  Opening  the  freezer  door  has  no  effect  on  the 
operation of Eco and Vacation Modes, except if the freezer 
temperature alarm sounds.
