• All the wine racks slide out for easy access, except for the
bottom shelf. When loading, pull the rack out gently until it
stops.
• Each of the slide-out racks can hold up to eight 750 mL
Bordeaux bottles.
• The bottom shelf can hold up to six Bordeaux bottles.
• For maximum capacity on the wood racks, reverse the
position of every other bottle as shown.
Bottle Placement
• On the bottom shelf, all bottles load with the narrow end out.
Some guidelines for optimum wine storage:
• Fill the cabinet from the bottom up, evenly spreading the wine
across all the shelves. Do not overload. Keep small gaps
between the walls and the bottles to allow air circulation.
Air circulation is important to prevent mould and promotes a
more homogeneous temperature.
• Lay the bottles flat.
• Do not cross contaminate. Store only wine in your wine cellar
to ensure that the environment is odor free.
• Only store wine in unopened bottles. Storing opened bottles
may result in spillage.
Temperature Alarm
An alarm will sound if the temperature falls outside the set
temperature range. The temperature display will flash at the
same time. The temperature the appliance is set to determines
the temperature the unit recognizes as being too warm or
too cool. Once the set temperature has been reached in the
appliance, the alarm stops and the relevant temperature display
stops flashing.
The alarm will sound (periodically) and the
temperature display will flash:
• When you switch the appliance on, if the temperature inside
the appliance is very different from the set temperature.
• When there has been a lengthy interruption to the power
supply.
• When too many bottles have been put into the unit at one
time.
• When the door is not been closed tightly.
You can disable the audio alarm if you wish
by touching the ON/OFF key once. The
temperature display will continue to flash until
the set temperature has been reached.
Door Alarm
• If the door has been left open for more than 60 seconds, the
alarm will sound periodically.
• You can disable the alarm if you wish by
touching the ON/OFF key once. The alarm will
reset when the door is closed.
WARNING
• Do not pull out more than one loaded shelf at a time as
this may cause the wine cellar to tilt forward.
• Do not try to slide the shelves outwards beyond the fixed
position to prevent the bottles from falling.
• To prevent damaging the door gasket, make sure the door
is fully open when pulling shelves out of the compartment.
