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 application with your electric
utillity company, provied that, your electric
utillity company supports the function. In other
words, the Smart Grid function will not be
available if your electric utillity company does
not support the function or does not have the
capability to support the function.

SMART FUNTIONS
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.
Temporary Appliance Load Reduction (TALR)
The refrigerator responds to a TALR signal by
aggressively reducing the load for a short time
period, typically 10 minutes. This mode reduces
energy consumption by stopping the compressor
and controlling the functions that consume a lot
of energy such as the defrost cycle and fan.
• When the refrigerator operates in TALR mode,
the Grid LED is illuminated on the refrigerator
display.
• TALR mode is automatically deactivated after
the received duration (max. 10 minutes), or
when you override the Smart Grid function.
The mode is immediately deactivated and the
refrigerator returns to its normal state when
the door is opened or closed, or the dispenser
is used.
