The correct temperature and humidity
Temperature
Wine can be stored at a temperature of
between 5 and 18 °C. The optimum
temperature is around 10 - 12 °C. Most
white wines can be consumed at this
temperature. It is best to take red wine
out of the storage unit approximately
two hours before drinking. Open the
wine to allow it to breathe and to de
velop its aroma. After two hours red
wine will be at the correct temperature
for drinking.
If wine is stored at a temperature above
22 °C it will mature too quickly. How
ever, wine should not be stored below
5 °C for a long period of time as it will
not mature fully at this low temperature.
Fluctuations in temperature put wine
under stress and interrupt the maturing
process. It is therefore very important to
maintain a constant temperature.
An ambient room temperature of 3 to
43 °C will ensure that a constant temperature is maintainted in the wine stor
age unit.
-
-
Temperature selection
The temperature is set using the two
buttons next to the temperature display.
Press the
upper button: to raise the temper
–
ature (it gets warmer)
lower button: to reduce the tem
–
perature (it gets colder)
The temperature being set will flash in
the display.
When pressing the buttons the following are shown in the display:
– When first pressed the last tempera-
ture selected flashes.
– Each subsequent press of the button
adjusts the temperature shown in
1 °C steps.
-
-
Safety feature
A thermostat prevents the temperature
in the wine storage unit falling below
2 °C. If the external temperature should
drop below this level, the heating in the
appliance switches on automatically to
keep the temperature inside as con
stant as possible.
10
-
–
Keeping the button pressed in ad
justs the temperature continually.
Approx. 5 seconds after letting go of
the button the current actual tempera
ture in the unit is automatically shown.
-
-
The correct temperature and humidity
If you have adjusted the temperature,
wait for approx. 6 hours if the appli
ance is not very full and for approx.
24 hours if the appliance is full before
checking the temperature display as it
will take this long for the display to
show the accurate temperature of the
unit. If the temperature displayed is too
low or too high, then adjust the temper
ature once more.
Temperature range
The temperature can be adjusted from
5 °C to
22 °C.
-
Temperature display
During normal operation the temperature display on the control panel shows
the temperature inside the appliance.
If the temperature inside the appliance
is not within the range that the machine
is able to display, i.e. if it is not between
2 and 30 °C, then only bars will light up
in the temperature display.
The temperature display flashes, if
–
a different temperature is being set,
–
the temperature in the appliance is
4 °C too high or too low.
Temperature display brightness
The appliance is supplied with the
brightness of the temperature display
set as low as possible. However, if the
door is opened, a setting changed or if
the alarm is sounding, the temperature
display will appear much brighter for
approx. 1 minute.
The level of brightness can be adjusted
to be:
Brighter: by pressing the alarm but
–
ton and whilst holding it in, press the
upper button next to the temperature
display.
Dimmer: by pressing the alarm but
–
ton and whilst holding it in, press the
lower button next to the temperature
display
Humidity level
It is very important to store wine in an
atmosphere with a high humidity level
(60 - 70 %) so that the corks remain
moist on the outside. A refrigerator with
its low humidity level is therefore not the
best place to store wine. At a low humidity level corks dry out from the outside and so do not seal the bottles as
tightly. This is why wine always has to
be stored on its side so that the wine
keeps the corks moist from the inside.
Air entering the bottle will inevitably
spoil the wine.
Ideal humidity levels can be maintained
inside the appliance as long as the am
bient room temperature is between 15
and 35 °C.
Useful tip: Before serving, stand the
wine upright for at least two hours, or
the entire day if possible, to allow any
sediment to settle at the bottom of the
bottle.

The correct temperature and humidity
Air filtering with the active charcoal
filter and dynamic cooling
Wine keeps on maturing, depending on
the surrounding conditions. The length
of time for which wine can be kept in
good condition will therefore depend
not only on the temperature but also the
air quality. The active charcoal filter and
dynamic cooling system maintain the
air quality in the appliance. The dy
namic cooling system draws fresh air
with a humidity level of 60 – 70 % from
outside the appliance, in through the
active charcoal filter and distributes it
evenly around the interior.
Filtering the incoming air through the
active charcoal filter ensures that all the
air entering the appliance is fresh and
free of dust and smells. In addition, the
constant temperature which is evenly
distributed throughout the unit enables
you to store all your wine under exactly
the same excellent conditions.
-
Replace the active charcoal filter
with a new one once a year. Active
charcoal filters are available from
your dealer.
12
Storing wine bottles
Any vibration or movement of the bottle
can affect the wine by interrupting the
natural respiration process and so im
pairing the taste.
As far as possible store bottles of the
same type of wine beside each other
on the same shelf. Removing a bottle of
one type will then leave the other types
undisturbed and will avoid the need to
move different bottles around.
-
Shelves
The shelves can support a maximum
load of up to 50 kg . The shelves slope
slightly towards the rear so that bottles
are stored securely and cannot slide
out towards the door.
You can adjust the height of the shelves
to suit your individual requirements. To
do this:
^ Open the door by approx. 90°. Pull
the shelf out towards the front and replace it in another position.
Descriptive labels
To identify your wine quickly and easily
use the labels supplied. They can be
placed on the wooden decor strips or
on the inner door.
Maximum capacity
The following data was obtained using
standard Bordeaux wine bottles and
the number of shelves supplied with the
appliance.
KWL 1090 S: up to 115 bottles
–
KWL 1630 S: up to 169 bottles
–
– KWL 1900 S: up to 196 bottles
Tip:
If you want the shelves spaced evenly
apart, it is best to start from the middle.
This is because there isn't a shelf run
ner at the height of the door lock.
-
13
Alarm
Your appliance has been fitted with a
warning system which ensures that the
temperature cannot rise or fall unno
ticed and impair the wine. The alarm
system is always active. It does not
need to be activated separately.
-
Temperature alarm
An alarm will sound if the temperature
in the appliance rises approx. 4 °C
above or falls approx. 4 °C below the
set temperature. The temperature dis
play will flash at the same time.
The alarm will sound and the tempera
ture display will flash:
– when you switch the appliance on
and for as long as the temperature
differs as described above from the
temperature set.
– when there has been a lengthy inter-
ruption to the power supply.
-
Door alarm
Switching the alarm tone off
early
Once the set temperature has been
reached in the appliance the alarm tone
stops and the temperature is displayed
constantly. However, if the noise dis
turbs you, you can switch the alarm
tone off before this if you wish.
^ Press the alarm button.
The alarm stops. The temperature
display continues to flash, until the
door has been shut again or the set
temperature has been reached. It
then lights up constantly and the
alarm system will be fully active once
more.
-
The alarm will sound if the door is left
open for longer than 3 minutes.
14
Condensate and frost can build up on
the back wall of the appliance whilst it
is in use. These are automatically re
moved and defrosted by the appliance.
The condensate is drained away via a
channel and drain hole into an evapora
tion system at the back of the appli
ance.
Ensure that the condensate channel
and drain hole are never blocked so
that condensate can flow away with
out hindrance.

15
Cleaning and care
Never use cleaning agents contain
ing abrasive substances such as
sand, soda, acids or chemical sol
vents.
"Non-abrasive" cleaning agents are
also unsuitable as they can cause
matt areas to appear.
Make sure that no water can pene
trate into the electronic unit or into
the light.
Do not let water get into the drain
age channel and drain hole when
cleaning.
Cleaning the outer casing, the
-
interior and accessories
-
-
-
Use lukewarm water and a little wash
ing up liquid. Accessories and shelves
should be hand washed only.
Clean the condensate channel and
^
drain hole frequently, so that conden
sate can drain away unhindered. Use
a straw or similar to clear the drain if
necessary.
After cleaning, wipe the outer casing,
^
the interior and accessories with a
damp cloth and dry with a soft cloth.
Leave the door open to air the appliance for a short while.
-
-
Never use steam cleaning apparatus to clean the appliance. The
steam could attack the electrical
components and cause a short circuit.
The data plate located inside the appliance must not be removed. It con
tains information which is required in
the event of a service call.
Before cleaning
^
Switch off the appliance and remove
the plug. (Do not pull on the cable,
only on the plug).
^
Take out any removable parts e.g.
shelves for cleaning.
E-Cloth
^ A microfibre "E-Cloth" is available
from the Miele UK Spare Parts Department, Part Number 980 13530,
which is suitable for cleaning surfaces such as stainless steel, glass,
-
plastic and chrome without the use of
chemicals.
Ventilation gaps
^
The ventilation gaps should be
cleaned on a regular basis with a
brush or vacuum cleaner. A build up
of dust will increase the appliance's
energy consumption.
16
Door seals
Do not use any oils or grease on the
door seals as these will cause the
seals to deteriorate and become po
rous with time.
Cleaning and care
-
The door seals should be cleaned reg
ularly with clean water and then wiped
dry with a soft cloth.
Metal grille at the back of the
appliance
The metal grille at the back of the appli
ance (heat exchanger) should be
dusted at least once a year. A build up
of dust will increase the energy consumption of the appliance.
When cleaning the grille, make sure
that the pipework and other components do not get broken or damaged
in any way.
Active charcoal filter
Replace the active charcoal filter once
a year. The filters are available from
your dealer.
