If the freezer receives a Demand Response signal
from the utility company, the freezer will turn on the
Grid LED on the freezer display and control its power
consumption according to the signal.
The freezer will respond to the signals received from
the utility company as long as product performance is
maintained.
If the freezer receives a Demand Response signal,
the freezer will operate in Delay Appliance Load
(DAL) or Temporary Appliance Load Reduction
(TALR) mode.
Delay Appliance Load (DAL)
The freezer 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.

or when you override the Smart Grid function.
Temporary Appliance Load Reduction
(TALR)
The freezer responds to a TALR signal by
aggressively reducing the load for a short time
period, typically 10 minutes. This mode reduces

utility company and override the Smart Grid function,
push the Smart Grid button while the freezer is in
Smart Grid mode.
When you override the Smart Grid function, the
freezer ignores the Demand Response signal and
is no longer controlled by the utility company until
the next Demand Response signal is sent. You can
also override the Smart Grid function using the smart
