特長 FEATURES

Hitachi adds the Vacuum Compartment to "eco".

Adopting [Fresh Cassette] and evolving [Sleep Preservation] to keep freshness and preserve nutrients.

Our unique [Vacuum Compartment] keeping freshness and preserving nutrients in a vacuum state evolves. Newly adopted [Fresh Cassette] releases hot flavor to restrict activities of the enzymes to keep Umami taste of fish and textures. In addition, adding LED lights increases carbon dioxide gas yield to enhance effectiveness of the [Sleep Preservation] function.

※ Vacuum means the space where the pressure is lower than the atmosphere pressure. The pressure in the Vacuum compartment is about 0.8 hPa which is lower than the atmosphere pressure, so Hitachi calls such state as vacuum.

[Dual Fan] & [Frost Recycle Cooling] and others lead to

More energy saving

Interior view of a medical incubator with glass chambers and a small bed, no visible text or symbols

Thanks to various energy-saving technologies such as [Dual fan] using 2 fans to cool efficiently, [Frost Recycle Cooling] utilizing frost formed on the condenser effectively, etc., electric power consumption is reduced. If you want to save electricity more, "Energy Saving" mode is available.

Plentiful innovative functions to store more items

Spacious storage capacity

Structure design is improved by expanding / enlarging shelves, pockets and slide cases as much as possible as well as by using vacuum insulating material to thin the wall and others to maximize internal volumetric capacity for foods. Storing a pan with foodstuffs in, storing the whole large ingredients, bulk buying on weekends and others due to plentiful storage capacity may help your daily life change.

[三重抗菌除臭]

[Triple Power Deodorizing Effect]

A combination of 3 types of deodorizing materials leads to deodorize various odorous substances in the refrigerator including 4 major odors such as sulfur, nitrogen, aldehyde and oxygen odors. Activities of bacteria collected by the filter are also restricted.

Deodorant filter has the effect of sterile filtration.

- Testing laboratory: Boken Quality Evaluation Institute, a general incorporate foundation - Test method: Film contacting method (JIS Z 2801) - Name of the part used for treatment: Filter - Sterilization method: applying oxidation catalyst to the filter - Target: bacteria collected by the filter - Test result: sterilization effect of 99% after 24 hours by using a filter only. This has not always effect on the entire refrigerator or foods.
