Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2015150375A1] The invention relates to a domestic appliance, in particular a domestic refrigerator (1), and to a method for operating the domestic appliance. The domestic appliance has a panel (21), which is pivotably arranged between at least two positions relative to a pivot axis (23), and a moving device (9), which is designed to pivot the panel (21) back and forth between the at least two positions. The moving device (9) comprises a wire (24) which is coupled to the panel (21) and is made of a shape memory alloy, said wire being shortened upon heating and thus pivoting the panel (21) from a first position into a second position.
