Installation notes


Risk of damage and injury from
the wine conditioning unit tipping
over.
The wine conditioning unit is very
heavy and can tip forwards when the
appliance door is open.
Keep the appliance door shut until
the wine conditioning unit has been
installed and secured in its installa-
tion niche in accordance with these
operating and installation instruc-
tions.
Due to its weight and size, the wine
conditioning unit must be installed
by two people.

Adjoining cabinetry

The wine conditioning unit is screwed
to the adjoining cabinetry to the side
and above. For this reason, it is essen-
tial that all of the relevant cabinetry are
secured to the ground or wall.

Load-bearing capacity of the niche
floor
To ensure the safe installation of the
wine conditioning unit and to guarantee
its correct functioning, the floor of the
niche where the appliance is to be in-
stalled must be smooth and even.
It must be made from strong, rigid ma-
terial.
Because the wine conditioning unit is
extremely heavy when fully loaded, it is
essential that the floor it stands on is
able to bear its weight. If necessary,
seek the advice of an architect or con-
struction expert.
When fully loaded, the weight of the
wine conditioning unit is approx.:

Ventilation


Risk of fire and damage due to
insufficient ventilation.
If the wine conditioning unit is not
ventilated sufficiently, the compres-
sor will run more frequently and for
longer periods.
This causes increased energy con-
sumption and an increased com-
pressor operating temperature,
which can result in damage to the
compressor.
Please ensure that there is adequate
ventilation around the wine condi-
tioning unit.
It is essential to observe the required
ventilation gaps. The ventilation gaps
must never be obstructed.
