# Manual mode for legacy products

Display EU energy labels for older products not in the EPREL database by filling in Energy Class, label image, and product sheet metafields manually.

For older or discontinued products not listed in the EPREL database, you can manually display the energy class, energy label, and product information sheet.

First, enable Manual mode: go to **Apps → EU Energy Label → Settings** and turn on **Enable manual mode**. This creates three additional metafields at the **product level** in your Shopify admin:

* **Energy Class** (A+++ to G)
* **Energy Label** (image file)
* **Product Information Sheet** (PDF)

Fill in these metafields for the relevant products, and the app will display the values automatically.

**Important notes:**

1. The **EPREL Registration Number** metafield must be left empty — both at the product and variant level.
2. Manual data is set in the product-level metafields only.
3. Manual energy badges are displayed on the Product page, Collection pages, Search results, Cart page, and Cart drawer.
4. To stay compliant with EU law, use this method **only for legacy products** that do not have an EPREL registration. The energy class, label image, and product sheet you enter are provided by you — their correctness is your responsibility.
5. Turning Manual mode off stops displaying manual labels on the storefront, but the metafields and their values are kept — nothing is deleted. Turning it back on restores them.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://staylime.com/docs/energy-label/special-cases/manual-mode-for-legacy-products.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
