Vacuum-sealed for Food Freshness
Vacuum Compartment
The secret to longer-lasting freshness is reduced oxygen levels. Hitachi’s original vacuum preservation extracts air to maintain approx. 0.8 atm (atmospheric pressure). The meat, fish and dairy products are kept fresh and nutritious, and ready to cook without defrosting.
Refreshing Technology Maintains 0.8 atm Vacuum*
Hitachi innovation at its finest and most consistent: the sealed pressure-resistant vacuum realises and maintains the vacuumed environment. A vacuum pump extracts air and reduces oxygen to achieve approx. 0.8 atm (atmospheric pressure) throughout usage.
* Vacuum means the space where the pressure is lower than the atmospheric pressure. The pressure in the Vacuum Compartment is approx. 0.8 atm, which is lower than the atmosphere pressure, so Hitachi calls this a vacuum.
Designed to Convenience
Auto Door
Auto door technology provides a delightfully easy door opening experience like never before. Even when your hands are full, or the door is fully packed and heavy, there are two ways to open it up for you with a single touch.
Touch Open
To open the freezer or refrigerator door
Slide Open
To open the freezer and refrigerator doors
Auto Energy Saving
Eco Monitoring Sensor
The controller is displayed automatically only when someone approaches it. It senses if a person is near the refrigerator and automatically switches on/off the energy saving mode. This is useful when you travel or leave your home for an extended period.
Breakthrough Energy Saving
VIP – Vacuum Insulation Panel Technology
VIP is a thin panel with a very fine glass fibre vacuum inside, giving an extremely high heat insulation performance – much higher than that of Urethane, a conventional insulation material. It prevents external heat from escaping to achieve exceptional energy savings. Cooling retention is 15 hours, with the highest heat insulation performance during power cut.

Energy Saving
Provides optimum cooling in both the freezer and refrigerator compartments, something a single fan can’t do. Improved Dual Fan Cooling with dedicated fans for each compartment ensures energy saving and powerful cooling. This is supported by the Eco Thermo-Sensor in each compartment that detects any temperature change separately to enable the ideal temperature change to be maintained in each of the compartments at all times.

Clean Water from Bottled Water
Tank Type Ice & Water Dispenser
Just pour mineral or other purified water into the 3.2L water tank. Serves you iced water and automatically makes ice for you. No troublesome plumbing is required, and you can install the unit virtually anywhere.
Powerful Deodorisation
Triple Power Filter
Triple Power Filter removes odour components*1 and removes bacteria 99%.*2
*1 Triple Power Filter that catches and removes 7 odour components (Tested by Hitachi. The type of odours : Methyl Mercaptan, Ammonia, Acetaldehyde, Trimethylamine, Propanal, Hexanal and Acetic Acid).
*2 Thus also provides a sterilising effect. Combining the properties of Activated Carbon, Zeolite and Manganese Oxide (catalyst), the filter greatly reduces the percentage of odours present over time. Testing organisation : Boken Quality Evaluation Institute. Testing method : Film adhesion method (JISZ2801). Name of processing component : Filter. Sterilisation method : Application of oxidation catalyst to filter. Subject : Bacteria trapped in filter. Test results : 99% sterilised after 24 hours, achieved using the filter alone. No effect on the environment and food inside the refrigerator.
Fresh Vegetables
Separate Vegetable Compartment
For long-lasting freshness, each of the cases maintains high humidity at the optimum level of approx. 90%* with indirect cooling. And the completely separate compartment is always full of clean air with no transferred odours thanks to Triple Power Filter.
* Tested by Hitachi. Differs depending on the amount and type of vegetables.
Elegant Interior Design
The refrigerator interior is designed elegantly, yet gives a convenience with bright, energy saving LED, elegant bottle and wine shelf, and extra storage space. The Aluminium panel gives a tint of luxury to the bright compartment.
Powerful Cooling
When you want to cool quickly and powerfully, switch the Quick Cooling mode ON which cools approx. 19%* faster.
* Tested by Hitachi. Comparison between Quick Cooling mode ON and OFF.
