If you do not have enough bottles to fill your wine cooler to capacity, please be advised that distributing your
collection throughout the wine cooler is a more optimal use of storage rather than retaining all bottles “at the
top” or “at the bottom.”
•
Do remove or relocate adjustable wooden shelves to accommodate larger bottles or to increase the capacity of
the cellar. This also allows the option to stack the bottles vertically when necessary. (See removing shelves).
•
Keep a small gap between the walls of the unit and the bottles themselves to allow proper air circulation. Air
circulation prevents mold and creates proper conditions to support viable wine storage temperatures.
•
Do not overload your wine cooler as this can disrupt proper air circulation.
•
Do not stack more than 1.5 rows of standard 0.75L bottles per shelf to facilitate correct air circulation.
•
Avoid obstructing the internal fans (located inside on the back panel of the wine cooler) with your wine bottles.
•
Do not slide the shelves outwards beyond the fixed position to prevent the bottles from falling.
•
Do not pull out more than one loaded shelf at a time as this may cause the wine cooler to tilt forward.
•
Do not cover the wooden shelves with alloy foil or other materials for the risk of obstructing air circulation.
•
Do not move your wine cooler while it is loaded with wine. This might distort the body of the wine cooler and
cause unnecessary back injury.
TYPES OF REGULATION
Please note that depending on the size of your collection and the temperature settings you program into the unit, it can
take up to 24 hours for the wine cooler to reach your desired temperature.
During this time, the LED readout may appear to be erratic. It is normal as this process occurs whenever the setting is
modified and/or whenever many bottles are added to the cellar.
Your wine cooler is designed to store and mature all wines, including reds, whites, and sparkling vintages. The optimal
recommended storage temperature is 12ºC. They can also be programmed to an ideal serving temperature for an
upcoming special occasion. Unless stated by the winemaker on the bottle, we recommend setting your wine cooler to
temperatures of 7ºC for your champagne, 12ºC for your whites, and 18ºC for your reds. (Refer to “Wine Service
Temperature” recommendation chart).
TEMPERATURE SETTINGS
Important: By default, the LED displays the actual internal temperature.
In the event of a power interruption, all previous temperature settings are automatically erased, and it will revert to the
preset temperature settings.
Also note that the electrical board of all models comes with a built-in memory function.
It is important to understand that there is a difference between the air temperature inside the wine cooler and
the actual temperature of the wine:
It can take approximately 12 hours for the temperature within the wine cooler to
cool the temperature within the wine to the same degree.
Once the temperature is set, it is strongly advised not to toy with it or make frequent adjustments. The thermostat will
maintain the temperature inside the wine cooler within a +/- 2.5ºC range. However, the thermal inertia of both the wine
and the glass will only alter the actual temperature of the wine by 0.5ºC to 1ºC.
