A Quick History of the type of Refrigeration used in your
Wine Cooler...
In 1834, the French physicist Peltier discovered a very intriguing phenomenon. When direct current goes through different metals that are connected, one joint will produce heat while the other will become cold at the same time.
Peltier’s discovery meant that he had found the semiconductor (endothermic joint and exothermal joint system). Whether the conductor joint is endothermic or exothermal depends on the direction in which current flows through the conductor.
This has become known as the ‘Peltier Effect’.
Semiconductor refrigeration is based on a thermoelectric device that includes the different ‘P’ shape and ‘N’ shape semiconductor materials placed in a certain way. When direct current goes through, one end releases heat while the other absorbs heat. Once the heat produced at the exothermal joint is released, the temperature of the endothermic joint decreases radically, resulting in cryogenic refrigeration.
As the development and application of semiconductor refrigeration technology develop further, it’s inevitable that it will cause a revolution in the refrigeration industry, radically changing the traditional monopoly of compression refrigeration …
… This is especially important in protecting the environment.

Tips on Setting up your Wine Cooler
o Do not place the wine cooler under direct sunlight, or in a hot (i.e. - above 25°C) area or in a humid place (frost will form). Likewise, keep it out of an area that will get very cold as very cold conditions will keep your Wine Cooler from storing your wine at the temperature you want.
~
o Make sure your wine cooler is resting on a flat surface so that there is no risk of bottles being able to tip forward. Note that your Wine Cooler has adjustable feet so you can
adapt your Wine Cooler to your floor surface. Turning the feet clockwise will raise the height of the unit. Turning them anticlockwise will lower the height.
~
o Remove all exterior and interior packaging, including protective foam on the door panels.
Remember that children are particularly vulnerable to packaging materials and old appliances – discard materials with this in mind.
~
o Check to be sure the following parts are included:
95 slide out shelves
91 instruction manual
~
o Your Wine Cooler needs space around it to function properly. It is very important that you give it at least 10cm between the back and any surface behind it as well as 5cm between the sides and any surfaces around them. This is necessary so that your Wine Cooler has adequate space for ventilation.
~
oYou can replace the shelves with wooden ones (BW18KIT), if desired. This is available as an optional extra.
