In case of a power cut
Most power cuts are resolved within a short time. A power cut of 1 or 2 hours will not affect the temperature
in your cabinet. To protect your wines during a power cut, avoid opening the door as much as possible.
During very long power cuts, take the necessary measures to protect your wine.
•
If the appliance is disconnected or if there is a power cut, you must wait three to five minutes before re-
starting. If you try to re-start before this time, the compressor will only re-start after 3 to 5 minutes (if the
temperature requires).
•
When switching on for the first time or following a prolonged shutdown, it is possible that when re-
starting, the temperatures selected and those displayed are not the same. This is normal. It will take a
few hours before they stabilize.
Vacation time
•
Short vacations:
leave the wine cooler operating during vacations of less than three weeks.
•
Long vacations:
if the appliance will not be used for several months, remove all items and turn off the
appliance. Clean and dry the interior thoroughly. To prevent odor and mold growth, leave the door open
slightly: blocking it open if necessary.
Moving your wine cooler
•
Remove all items.
•
Securely tape down all loose items (shelves) inside your appliance.
•
Turn the adjustable leg up to the base to avoid damage.
•
Tape the door shut.
•
Be sure the appliance stays secure in the upright position during transportation. Also protect outside of
appliance with a blanket, or similar item.
Energy saving tips
•
The wine cooler should be located in the coolest area of the room (but at least at 16°C), away from heat
producing appliances, and out of the direct sunlight.
•
Ensure that the unit is adequately ventilated. Never cover air vents.
•
Only open the door for as long as necessary.
9. IN THE EVENT OF A BREAKDOWN
Despite the care we take during production, a breakdown can never be totally ruled out. Before contacting
your retailer’s after-sales department, please check that:
•
The appliance is properly plugged in
•
There is not a power cut in progress
•
The breakdown is not one of those described in the table at the end of this manual
IMPORTANT: if the power cable supplied is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, a
service centre approved by the brand or the retailer. In all events, it must be replaced by qualified
personnel in order to avoid any risk of injury.
