Abstract (en)
[origin: EP2891853A1] Provided is a refrigerator including a gasket (22) which brings a housing (11) into close contact with a door (15a). The refrigerator also has: a first closed door mode in which the gasket (22) is strongly pressed on the housing (11) by the actuator (23a) and is thus compressed to improve heat insulating properties of a storage compartment; and a second closed door mode in which the compressed state of the gasket (22) is loosened to reduce a door-opening force. In the first closed door mode in which the gasket (22) is compressed to improve the heat insulating properties of the storage compartment, an energy saving property can improved; and in the second closed door mode in which the compressed state of the gasket (22) is loosened to reduce the door-opening force, the door can be opened with a small force.
