Setting Temperature
Different varietals of wine require different temperature settings. Red wine is generally stored between 50 and 65
degrees Fahrenheit, while white wines are stored between 40 and 50 degrees Fahrenheit. The Allavino Dual-Zone Wine
and Beverage Center has a wide temperature range that allows you to store either red or white wines. Beverages can be
stored as cool as 34 degrees so they are nice and cold when you're ready to drink them.
You can set the temperature as you desire by touching the UP or DOWN button. When you touch the buttons for the
first time, the LED readout will show the original temperature set at the manufacturing facility. Each push of the button
will adjust the temperature by one degree in the desired direction. Please be aware that the desired temperatures may
fluctuate depending on whether the interior light is ON or OFF and depending on the orientation of the bottles.
PLEASE NOTE:
In the event of a power interruption, all previous temperature settings will be automatically saved and each
compartment will return to the previous temperature setting.
If the unit is unplugged, loses power, or is turned off, you must wait 3 to 5 minutes before restarting. Attempting
to restart the appliance before this time has elapsed may prevent it from starting.
When you use the wine and beverage center for the first time or restart it after having been shut off for a long
time, there will be a few degrees variance between the temperature you select and the one indicated on the
LED readout for the first few hours of operation. After a few hours of operation, the temperature will normalize
to the displayed temperature.
Each temperature zone may have a tolerance of +/-5°F (+/-3°C) from setting depending on different loading and
ambient conditions
Racking Configuration
Disperse your bottles evenly throughout the unit so as not to concentrate weight in any one area. This also helps to
provide an even temperature range throughout the unit. Make sure that bottles are not all grouped together either at
the top or bottom of the cabinet. The maximum capacity per shelf is 55 lbs. Never try to pull out more than one rolling
shelf at a time as it can cause the appliance to tip forward. Also, be careful that your bottles do not touch either the back
of the cabinet or the step at the bottom because contact with these cold surfaces can cause ice to form in the bottle.
The Wine Side has wood presentation shelves that glide smoothly on ball-bearing tracks which allow easy access to your
entire collection. The top 5 shelves will hold up to 3 regular size bottles and the bottom shelf will hold 5 regular size
bottles by stacking 2 bottles on top of the three bottles that fit in the grooves. The overall bottle capacity will vary
depending upon the size of your bottles. If you have larger diameter bottles, you can remove a shelf to accommodate
them, but that will affect your overall bottle capacity. The Beverage Center side can hold up to 54 12-oz. cans or the
shelves can be placed further apart to accommodate taller cans and bottles.
You can remove a shelf to accommodate larger diameter bottles on the shelf below it. To remove a shelf, pull it out as
far as you can. There are levers on each side of the shelf near the rollers. Left the lever on the left hand side and push
down the lever on the right hand side to remove the shelf from the tracks.
