Optimum temperature and air quality

Air quality and humidity
In most refrigerators, the humidity is too
low for wine and therefore a refrigerator
is not suitable for wine storage. High
humidity levels are necessary when
storing wine to moisturize corks from
the outside. When the humidity is too
low the corks dry out and the bottle is
no longer tightly sealed. For this reason
wine bottles should always be stored
horizontally to ensure that corks are
also moisturized from the inside. If air
gets into the bottle, this will have a neg-
ative impact on the wine.
Risk of damage caused by ex-
cess moisture.
This will lead to condensation on the
interior walls, which can cause corro-
sion damage.
Do
not
introduce additional moisture
into the air, e.g., by placing a dish of
water inside the wine conditioning
unit.
Using
DynaCool
(constant humidity)
DynaCool raises the relative humidity
inside the whole of the wine condition-
ing unit. It also distributes the humidity
and the temperature evenly around the
interior so that you can store all your
wine under the same excellent condi-
tions.
This will create a stable climate in the
unit which imitates that of a wine cel-
lar.
Switching on DynaCool
If you would like to use the wine condi-
tioning unit to store wine over the long
term, we recommend that you keep the
DynaCool function switched on.
Touch the sensor to switch the Dyna-
Cool function on/off. The sensor will
be highlighted in yellow.
Even if DynaCool has not been
switched on, the fans in the wine con-
ditioning unit will come on automati-
cally as soon as the cooling system
switches on. This ensures the opti-
mum climate for your wine is main-
tained.
The fans automatically switch off
when the appliance door is open.
