useful wine storage tips.
Keep this handbook for future consultation.

the door shuts properly.
Any damage must be reported to your dealer
within 24 hours after delivery of the appliance.

the appliance to the power supply in order
to ensure the refrigerant circuit is fully
efficient.

connections must be carried out by a qualified
electrician, in accordance with the
manufacturer's instructions and local
regulations.

PRECAUTIONS AND GENERAL
RECOMMENDATIONS
• The wine cellar must be used solely and
exclusively for storing wine; do not place any
type of food inside it.
• Do not cover or obstruct the air vents of the
appliance.
• Do not allow children to play or hide inside the
appliance - risk of becoming trapped and
suffocating.
• Before servicing or cleaning the appliance, unplug
it from the mains or disconnect the electrical
power supply.
• The power cable may only be replaced by an
authorised person.
Information
Appliances with Isobutane (R600a)
Isobutane is a natural gas with low environmental
impact. Caution is required, however, since
isobutane is flammable. Therefore, it is essential to
ensure that refrigerant pipelines are not damaged.
Important:
• If a large number of bottles are placed in the
cellar at the one time, it may take a few days
before a constant temperature is reached.
• Important! Storage temperature must never
drop below +6 °C
• When in operation, water droplets and frost
form on the walls of the cellar. These are part of
normal operation. You don't have to remove the
frost or dry the water droplets. The rear wall is
defrosted automatically. The defrost water is
automatically routed to a drain outlet and into a
container from which it evaporates.
• The bottles can be neatly stored on the wooden
racks. Each rack should not be used to hold more
than 40 Kg.
Bottle arrangement tips
• Place the bottles in the middle of the rack.
• On closing the door, make sure the bottles don't
touch the glass.
• Important: spirits and liqueurs should be airtight
and stored in the upright position.
• Do not use the appliance to store explosive
substances.
• The temperature may vary in different areas
inside the appliance due to the circulating air:
it is colder closest to the rear wall and warmer
beside the glass door.
• Remove bottles from packaging, do not store
them inside crates or boxes.
• Maximum holding capacities for classic 0.75l
bordolese bottles are as follows: h 1400 mm
holds 111 bottles, h 1600 mm holds 131 bottles.
• Recommended holding capacities for classic 0.75
l Bordolese bottles are as follows: h 1400 mm
holds 88 bottles, h 1600 mm holds 101 bottles. In
any event, the h 1400 structure is capable of
holding up to 111 bottles and h 1600 up to 131
bottles (Bordolese bottles).
