Afterthe“ShockFreeze”functionhasbeen
activated,itmayhappenthattheindicator
lightsupasexpected,butthefansdonot
startworking.Thisisnormalandmeansthat
freezerdefrostingisinprogress.Attheendof
thedefrostingphase(maximumduration:1.5
hours),thefanswillautomaticallystartworking
andthe“ShockFreeze”processwillbeginas
normal.

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.
