- 240 L fridge + 71 L freezer
- Energy rating
- 3.5
- Star rating index 3.63
- Annual electricity use

- $7.95 / month · $954 over 10 years
4% less electricity than the median of 49 comparable 300–399 L top-mount fridge freezer registrations (312 kWh a year). It uses less than 59% of them. At 32c/kWh that is about $4 a year less than the median, $45 over 10 years.
Uses 20% less than the maximum allowed for its size and type under the minimum energy performance standard (372 kWh a year MEPS level).
Cost = label kWh × 32c/kWh in AUD; change the price above to your tariff.
How efficient is it for its size?
Cohort: every currently registered 300–399 L top-mount fridge freezer sold in Australia, counted once per registration. Star ratings already account for size through the GEMS adjusted-volume formula; this comparison is in raw kWh against models a buyer would actually consider instead.

298 kWh × 32c/kWh. No inflation or tariff change assumed. Fridges run continuously, so the label figure is a whole-year estimate under standard test conditions.
Capacity and compartments
- Total gross volume
- 310 L
- Fresh food (fridge) volume
- 240 L
- Frozen storage volume
- 71 L
- GEMS adjusted volume
- 366 L
- freezer compartment
- 71 L gross, 50 L net
- fresh food compartment
- 240 L gross, 206 L net
Gross volumes exclude shelving. Fresh food = fresh food, chill and cellar compartments; frozen = freezer, two-star and ice-making (zero-star) compartments. Adjusted volume weights frozen space more heavily and is what the government uses to set the star rating for the size.
