Internet connectivity and a wireless router to enable
interconnection with an Energy Management System,
and/or with other external devices, systems or

What is Demand Response?
Some utilities vary their electricity rates based on the
time of day. Some utilities offer Demand Response
programs to reduce energy usage during certain times
of the day. Some utilities may do both things. This
refrigerator has a Demand Response feature to help
control energy usage.
Using Demand Response without a Utility
Program
The Demand Response feature allows the user to shift
high energy features, like defrost, for a 4-hour window.
This window corresponds to the average peak energy

the electricity rates.
Demand Response with your Utility
If your utility has a compatible Demand Response
program, and you are signed up with the utility, this
refrigerator can modify its energy usage based on
commands received from the utility. The SmartHQ
be used to override the Demand Response program,
if desired. Please note that there are many different
Demand Response programs, and many are not
compatible with kitchen appliances. Please check with
your local utility.
The demand response level is displayed in the mobile
app. Delay appliance load mode (DAL) reduces power
consumption by delaying defrost and ice production for
4 hours. Temporary appliance load reduction (TALR)
reduces the power consumption by delaying defrost, ice
production, and stopping cooling for 10 minutes.
Estimated energy consumption in Watt-hour(Wh) is
reported in the mobile app.
