SETTING THE TEMPERATURE CONTROLS
The temperature-setting ranges of the upper zone (54°F to 72°F, or 12°C to 22°C) and lower zone
(41°F to 54°F, or 5°C to 12°C) are effective when the ambient temperature is less than or equal to
90°F, or 32°C. At temperatures higher than this, it would be difficult to reach the lowest temperature
settings of the upper and lower zones.
The temperature difference displayed on Digital Displays 1 and 2 should be about 9 Fahrenheit
degrees (or 5 Celsius degrees).
Digital Displays 1 and 2 have the capability of showing temperatures from 32°F to 99°F (0°C to 37°C).
When the temperature in the storage cabinet is below 32°F (0°C), the display will show
000
, and when
the temperature in the cabinet is above 99°F (37°C), the display will show
99°F
(
37°C
).
The difference between the displayed temperature and the set temperature is ±3F° (±1.5C°) once the
cabinet temperature has reached equilibrium.
WINE SHELVES
To prevent damaging the door gasket, make sure to have the door all the way open when pulling the
shelves out of the rail compartment.
STORAGE
Bottles can differ in size and shape. As such the actual number of bottles you may be able to store can
vary. Bottle capacity is at its optimum when storing traditional 750-ml Bordeaux bottles.
We recommend that you observe the tips below to optimize loading:
Spread your bottles out as evenly as possible over the shelves so that weight is not concentrated in
one point. Bottles should not all be grouped together at the top or bottom of the cabinet.
Make sure your bottles do not touch the back of the cabinet or the step at the bottom.
Do not stack bottles on a sliding shelf.
Never try to pull out more than one sliding shelf at a time.
Typical layouts:
NOTE: Do not let bottles touch the rear wall of the cabinet.
Bottles stored with their bottom surfaces facing front
can rest on the front edge of the wooden shelf, as
shown in the illustration at the right.
