Wine Placement
Storage tips
The amount of time to store wine depends on its
maturity, type of grape, alcohol content, and
dissolved fructose and tannins. When purchasing
your wine, find out whether it is mature or if it will
improve over time.
In the lower part of the cooler. Cold air prolongs
the time to maturity. Accordingly, store old and
mature wine as well as wine you would like to store
for a long time in the lower portion of the cooler.
The lower part should also be used to store wine that
is to be served cold.
In the upper part of the cooler. In the upper part,
store wine that you wish to let further mature, wines
that are served at a warmer temperature, and those
wines you intend to consume relatively soon.
Store the b ottles lying down so that the corks do
not dry out.
Store the wine in the dark. The cooler doors are
made with double-paned glass with a dark coating.
This will protect the wine against light damage if the
cooler is placed in a well-lit area.
12
12
+
+
+
-

+
Avoid turning on the light in the cooler too often
or for too long. The wine should be stored in the
dark.
Handle the bottles with care, so that the wine is
not agitated.
Heed any advice and recommendations given at
the time of purchase or in the professional literature
concerning the wine's quality, durability and optimal
storage temperature.
Recommended storage temperatures:
- for white wines +10 to +12°C
- for rosé wines and light red wines +12 to +16°C
- for champagne and sparkling wines +6 to +8°C
If you stack several bottles on top of one another,
make sure they do not touch the cabinet's cooling
plate.

Measuring the temperature
If the temperature is measured using a standard,
single thermometer, this should be put in a glass of
water centrally placed inside the appliance. This will
reflect the temperature inside the food products. Do
not place the thermometer hanging or lying directly
on the shelf.
Switching off
Switch off the cabinet by pressing the power switch.
Keep the button pressed for approx. 1 second.
Power to the cabinet is completely
interrupted only when the power plug is
disconnected.
Alarms and other features
Door open alarm
If the fridgedoor remains open for more than 5
minutes, the red warning lamp starts flashing and an
audible alarm sounds.
To switch off the alarm:
Press the "alarm shut-off button". The red warning
lamp goes out when the door is closed.
12
Lighting
The cooler lighting may be turned on with the door
closed. This makes it easy to survey the contents of
the cooler without opening the door. The cooler
lighting should normally be off, so that the wine is
not unduly exposed to light. The lighting turns off
automatically after about 5 minutes.
Cabinet interior
The shelves may be placed flat or at an angle.
Angle the shelf by placing the front pegs in a lower
set of tracks. You can store already opened bottles on
the shelf in this position.
Hints and Tips
Energy Saving Advice
· Pay careful attention to where the cabinet is
placed. See the section "Installation". When
installed correctly, the cabinet will consume less
energy.
· Try to avoid keeping the door open for long
periods, or opening the door too frequently as
warm air will enter the cabinet, and cause the
compressor to switch on unnecessarily often.
· Ensure there are no obstructions preventing the
door from closing properly.
· It is advisable to periodically clean the
refrigeration system at the back of the appliance
with a duster or vacuum cleaner.
· Make sure the door gasket is complete and
always clean.
12
Food Storage
· To obtain the best results from your appliance,
neither hot foods nor liquids which may
evaporate, should be placed in the larder
compartment.
· Keep the time between buying chilled food and
placing it in your fridge as short as possible.
· Do not push food together too much, try to allow
air to circulate around each item.
· Do not store food uncovered.

Maintenance and Cleaning
Removing the ventilation grille
The ventilation grille can be removed, e.g. to wash
the grille.
Make sure the door is open when removing the
ventilation grille. Unsnap the upper edge of the grille
by pulling outward/downward. Then pull the grille
straight out to completely remove it.
Internal Cleaning
Clean the inside and the accessories with warm
water and bicarbonate of soda (5 ml to 0,5 litre of
water).
Rinse and dry t horoughly.
Do not use detergents, abrasive
powders, high perfumed cleaning
products, wax polishes or cleaning
products containing bleach or alcohol .
Regulary check the door seals and wipe clean to
ensure they are clean and free from debris.
Disconnect the appliance from electricity supply.
Clean out the drip channel inside the wine cooler at
regular intervals and ensure that the drip channel is
clear at all times. If blocked carefully clear using a
piece of flexible curtain wire inserted into the drain
outlet to remove the blockage.
Internal Cleaning
Clean the inside and accessories with warm water
and bicarbonate of soda (5ml to 0,5 litre water)
Rinse and dry thoroughly.
Regularly check the door seals and wipe clean to
ensure they are clean and free from debris.
Clean off the interior wooden details with a moist
rag and mild kitchen soap. Do not soak the wood.
External Cleaning
Wash the outer cabinet with warm soapy water.
Remove the ventilation grille (see the section
"Removing the ventilation grille") and vacuum-clean
under the cabinet. Once or twice a year dust the
condenser (black grille) and the compressor at the
back of the appliance, with a brush or vacuum
cleaner, as an accumulation of dust will affect the
performance of the appliance and cause excessive
electricity consumption.
When moving the cabinet, lift it by
the front edge to avoid scratching
the floor.
Defrosting the wine cooler
The wine cooler is defrosted automatically every
time the compressor stops. Frost formation can be
prevented by:
· not putting warm foodstuff inside the cabinet.
· avoiding frequently opening the door or keeping
it open too long.
