Wine Coolers:

Features

The right environment for your wines

A vine is an extremely sensitive plant. Grape quality is dependent
on three factors: light, air humidity, and ambient temperature.

This sensitivity continues even after the wine is bottled. To allow a
wine's flavor to fully develop and to preserve the excellent aroma,

it has to be properly stored. Your wine cooler or beverage center

offers the best storage environment:

Wide Temperature Range: The unit has a wide tem-

perature adjustment range. It allows you to store wine at
low temperature for superb aging or at a higher temper-
ature for serving wine lightly chilled. The temperature
can be set between 41 to 64°F (5 to 18°C).

Wine Cellar Simulation: The fan on your wine cooler
or beverage center allows you to simulate the humid

conditions inside a wine cellar. High humidity prevents
bottle corks from drying out.

High Storage Capacity: High storage capacity allows

you to preserve the flavor of your favorite wines. The
wine cooler models can store 56 750mL bottles of

wine. The beverage center models can store 29 750mL

bottles of wine and 88 eight ounce beverage cans at the
same time.

Rack Locations (See diagram above)
C) Slide-Out Racks: Hold up to nine bottles of wine each

Q Beverage Shelves: Hold up to 44 eight ounce cans each
(3) Bottom Shelf: Holds up to 11 bottles of wine
