Installation

Installation location

This appliance should be installed in a
dry, well-ventilated room.
When deciding where to install your
wine conditioning unit, please bear in
mind that it will use more energy if in-
stalled near to a heater, a range, or an-
other appliance that gives off heat. Di-
rect sunlight should also be avoided.
The higher the room temperature, the
longer the compressor runs and the
higher the energy consumption of the
wine conditioning unit is.
When installing the wine conditioning
unit, please note the following:
– The electrical socket must be easily
accessible in an emergency and not
concealed behind the appliance.
– The plug and power cord must not
touch the rear of the wine condition-
ing unit as they could be damaged by
vibrations from the appliance.
– Do not plug in other appliances be-
hind the wine conditioning unit.

If installation near a heat source is un-
avoidable, observe the following mini-
mum distances between the appliance
and the heat source:
– At least 1 1/4" (3 cm) to electric or
gas stoves
– At least 11 3/4" (30 cm) to oil or coal-
based stoves
If it is not possible to observe these
minimum distances, an isolation plate
must be installed between the Wine
conditioning unit and the heat source.
