CHARCOAL FILTRATION SYSTEM
Your wine is a living object that breathes through the cork of its bottle. In order to preserve the quality
and taste of your fine wines, they must be stored at the ideal temperature and ambient conditions.
Your cellar is equipped with an active charcoal filtration system to ensure air purity, cooling efficiency,
and to maintain an odor free cabinet for the storage of your fine wines. The filter assembly is located
at the rear panel inside your cellar.
Keep in mind, that this filter must be changed every 12 months.
To purchase replacement filters, call our Parts / Service Department at 1 – 800 – 220 – 5570.
