If you want to use the Automatic Temperature (default) setting, do nothing
further. The unit will automatically set the temperature in the compartment at 40
º
F (4
º
C). If you want to set other temperatures, see below.
Temperature Setting
Wine Storage Temperatures: While wines store best at temperatures around 56-
58ºF, your unit also allows you to store wine at drinking temperatures. Generally,
RED WINE should be kept at 60-61ºF and WHITE WINE, which is usually served
chilled, is best kept at 54-55ºF. Sparkling wines should be kept at about 46° F.
For beer and soft drinks, choose the temperature setting that is most agreeable
to you and your guests.
To adjust the temperature, press the SET button, then use the UP/DOWN keys
to navigate to the preferred temperature. The range of set temperatures is from
36 to 64° F. For example, if you are storing red wine, you may want to set a
temperature of 61
º
F. When the correct temperature appears in the DISPLAY
window of the control panel, press SET to confirm. The actual temperature inside
the unit will now appear in the window. This temperature will vary depending on
the number of bottles stored and how frequently the door is opened.
Please note:
The temperature sensor records the average temperature of the
unit. Cold air falls and warmer air rises, and there will be a temperature variation
from the bottom to the top of the unit. The temperature at the bottom of the unit
will always be slightly colder. The controller only controls the average
temperature of the unit. The temperature displayed by the electronic control
panel is the instantaneous average temperature of the unit and there may be a
variation of approximately 0 to 6 Fahrenheit degrees.
When fully loaded with room temperature product, the BLZ-SSRF-50DH will
operate continuously for as long as 24 hours to reduce the temperature inside
the cabinet to the desired point. Under normal conditions, when the unit has been
on for six hours, it will stop working for about thirty minutes to defrost
automatically.
The unit is designed to operate between 50°F (10
℃
) and 100°F (38
℃
). Higher
ambient temperatures may reduce the unit’s ability to reach low temperatures.
Best results are obtained at temperatures between 65°F and 80°F for built-in
models and between 65°F and 90°F for freestanding models.
Caution:
Damages caused by ambient temperatures of 40°F (4
℃
) or below are
not covered by the warranty.
To temporarily stop the cooling cycle, unplug the Refrigerator. To shut it down for
longer periods of time, disconnect the plug and leave the door partially open.
