Tips and tricks
7.1
General information on using the appliance
▪
When closing the appliance door, make sure that it closes properly. The
self-closing hinges help keep it closed: The appliance door closes automat-
ically from an opening angle of 20–30°.
▪
It can take several hours for the wine to cool down from room temperature
to the set temperature. The more warm bottles there are, the longer it takes.
▪
Changing the temperature setting simply changes the temperature, not the
time it takes for the bottles to cool down.
▪
Placing a warm or cold bottle directly in front of a temperature sensor can
affect the temperature regulation of the refrigerating appliance: it may cool
too little or too much.
▪
Ideally, leave the divider shelf in the position it was in when delivered from
the factory. This ensures the best possible temperature distribution.

Notes on storage of wine
▪
In the upper cooling zone at 5 to 12°C: White wine, rosé wine, sparkling
wine such as champagne, cava, spumante and Sekt.
▪
In the lower cooling zone at 12 to 18°C: Red wine.
▪
Ideal drinking temperatures:
5-8 °C
Champagne, sparkling wine, Sekt, Prosecco
8-12 °C
Young white wines (e.g. Chasselas, Müller-Thurgau, Chardon-
nay, Silvaner, Sauvignon Blanc)
9-15 °C
More mature white wines (e.g. Pinot Blanc, Pinot Gris, Riesling)
15-17 °C
Young red wines (e.g. Pinot Noir, Merlot, Gamay, Barbera)
17-18 °C
Mature red wines (e.g. Cabernet Sauvignon, Barolo)
The lower temperatures are suitable for more simple wines, and the
higher ones for the more complex, better quality wines of each cat-
egory.
