Cause and remedy
This is not a fault. The alarm tone has been switched
off in settings mode (see "Selecting further settings -
Audible tones").
The safety lock is activated. The  symbol is lit up in
the display.
 Deactivate the lock (see "Selecting further settings
- Activating or deactivating the lock").
Volume change due to moisture absorption or drying
out is a typical characteristic of wood. An increase in
humidity will cause wooden components to warp,
which can lead to cracking. Knots and grain patina
are part of the natural character of wood.
Mildew can begin to form on the labels, depending on
the type of label adhesive used.
 Clean the wine bottles and remove any adhesive
residue.
The corks have oxidised due to contact with the air.
 Use a dry cloth to wipe off the deposit. The de-
posit will not affect the quality of the wine.
