OPERATING NOISES
To reach the desired temperature sengs, VINTEC
Wine Cellar and Beverage Centres, like all Wine Cellar
and may produce the following types of noises. These
noises are normal and may occur as follows:
- Gurgling sound - caused by the refrigerant flowing
through the appliance’s coils.
- Cracking/popping sounds - resulng from the
contracon and expansion of the refrigerant gas to
produce cold.
- Fan operang sound - to circulate the air within the
Wine Cellar and Beverage Centre.
An individual’s percepon of noise is directly linked to
the environment in which the Wine Cellar and Beverage
Centre is located, as well the specific type of models.
VINTEC Wine Cellar and Beverage Centres are in line
with internaonal standards for such appliances.
VINTEC will always do its utmost to sasfy its
customers but will not retake possession of the goods
due to complaints based on normal operang noise
occurrences.
LOADING YOUR Wine Cellar and Beverage Centre
You may load your wine boles in single or double rows
while taking note of the following: if you do not have
enough boles to fill your Wine Cellar and Beverage
Centre, it is beer to distribute the load throughout the
Wine Cellar and Beverage Centre so as to avoid all on
top or all below type loads.
- Do remove or relocate adjustable wooden shelves to
accommodate larger type of boles or increase the
capacity of the cellar by stacking the boles up when
necessary. (See removing shelves).
- Keep smalls gap between the walls and the boles to
allow air circulaon. Like an underground cellar air
circulaon is important to prevent mould and for a
beer homogeneous temperature within the cellar.
6
- Do not over load your Wine Cellar and Beverage
Centre to facilitate air circulaon.
- Do not stack more than 1.5 rows of standard
0.75L boles per shelves to facilitate air
circulaon.

inside on the back panel of the Wine Cellar and
Beverage Centre).
- Do not slide the shelves outwards beyond the
fixed posion to prevent the boles from falling.
- Do not pull out more than one loaded shelf at a
me as this may cause the Wine Cellar and
Beverage Centre to lt forward.
- Do not cover the wooden shelves with alloy foil or
other materials, as it will obstruct air circulaon.
- Do not move your Wine Cellar and Beverage Centre
while it is loaded with wines. This might distort the
body of the Wine Cellar and Beverage Centre and
cause back injury.
