II. Installation
Transport your cabinet to its intended location. The place you choose to install your wine cabinet must:
– be open and well ventilated (not enclosed in a cupboard, for example),
– be away from any source of heat or direct sunlight,
– not be too damp (linen cupboard, laundry room, bathroom...). Ensure that no water splashes onto the entire back
section of the appliance,
– have a flat, stable floor,
– have an accessible standard power supply which does not come into contact with any of the appliance’s
components (standard outlet that complies with standards in the country, earthed with circuit breaker). The use
of extension cords or adaptors is forbidden.
Adjust the cabinet’s 4 feet (by screwing or unscrewing) in order to level your cabinet (use of a spirit level recommended).
For single-temperature models only, place the humidity cartridge (located in your cabinet’s “accessories” bag) at the base
of the cabinet, under the rack, in the tray provided (see diagram below). When using for the 1st time, fully immerse the
cartridge in the water for a few minutes to saturate it then drain thoroughly.
III. Precautions
• Do not place your cabinet in an area liable to flooding.
• Never obstruct the front air vent.
• To facilitate levelling, your wine cabinet is fitted with 4 adjustable feet.
• Carry out the final levelling of your wine cabinet (use of a spirit level recommended).
• N.B.: the LEDs on the control panel must only be replaced by a qualified electrician.
• When moving your cabinet, never tilt it more than 45°, and always on its side (on the opposite side of the flexible lead).
3- Important facts about wine
Your ARTEVINO cabinet is designed to guarantee optimal storing and/or serving conditions for your wine.
Wine is a complex product which develops very slowly. It therefore requires specific conditions in order to reach its
potential.
All wines are stored at the same temperature, only the serving temperatures differ, depending on the wine.
That being said, as in natural cellars belonging to wine producers, it is not so much the absolute value of the storage
temperature that is important but its constancy. In other words, regardless of the temperature inside your wine cabinet
from 10 to 14°C (for a maturing cabinet), your wine will be stored in ideal conditions, provided that this temperature
is not subject to extreme variations.
4- Power supply
The wine cabinet’s power lead has a plug to be connected to a standard earthed socket to prevent any risk of electric
shock.
For your own safety, the wine cabinet must be correctly earthed. Ensure that the socket is correctly earthed and that
your installation is protected by a circuit breaker (30 mA*)
Any work must be carried out by a qualified electrician.
* Not valid for some countries.
5- Installing your wine cabinet
I. Unpacking
• When unpacking your cabinet, ensure that it does not have any signs of impact or warping or any apparent defects.
• Open the door and check that the inside of your appliance is intact (walls, shelves, hinges...).
• Arrange the power lead so that it does not come into contact with any of the cabinet’s components.
Shelf protectors for transporting the cabinet have been attached to each shelf. 2 protectors per shelf (Picture 1).
Remove them both using a rotary motion (Picture 2). You can retain these protectors and re-use them if you are going
to transport your wine cabinet over a long distance.

IF YOU NOTICE A TEMPERATURE OR HUMIDITY FAULT INSIDE YOUR CABINET FOR ANY REASON,
REST ASSURED THAT ONLY LONG EXPOSURE TO THESE ABNORMAL CONDITIONS IS HARMFUL
TO YOUR WINE.
Have the power supply socket checked by a qualified electrician who will tell you whether or not it is correctly
earthed and will carry out, if necessary, work to make it compliant.
If moving to a foreign country, check that the characteristics of the cabinet correspond to the country (voltage,
frequency).
Wait 48 hours before plugging in your appliance.
