BEFORE LOADING & PLUGGING IN THE WINE CELLAR
Important: All models without front venting (air opening) are strictly for free standing

Recommendations:
The location you have selected for your wine cellar should:
- be unencumbered and well ventilated;
- be well away from any heat source and direct sunlight;
- not be too damp (laundry, pantry, bathroom etc.);
- have a flat floor;
- have a standard and reliable electricity supply (standard socket to country standards,
linked to the ground), it is NOT recommended to use a multi-socket or extension lead;
- have a surge protector fitted to the electrical outlet;
- away from the microwave oven. Certain microwave ovens do not have wave interference
shield. When placed within 1 meter vicinity of the wine cabinet, they may affect the
operation of the wine cabinet.
The wine cellar should be placed where the ambient temperature is between 5ºC to 43ºC. If
the ambient temperature is above or below this range, the performance of the unit may be
affected. Placing your unit in extreme cold or hot conditions may cause interior
temperatures to fluctuate. The ideal range of temperature may not be reached. (See Climate
