IMPORTANT: When you install your appliance it is important to bear in mind its climatic rating. In order to find out the climatic rating of your appliance, you should check the rating plate. The rating plate is located on the front left edge of the appliance.
Control panel The control panel is located in the middle of the appliance. Description of the product features Control panel o The control panel is located in the middle of the appliance, behind the glass door. This means it is easy to set the temperature of the appliance and see what temperature the appliance is set to.
Using your wine cabinet Before switching on o Make sure that it has been installed by a suitably qualified person, as per the information contained in the manufacturer’s installation instructions. o After delivery, wait for eight hours before connecting the appliance to your mains supply.
During first use IMPORTANT: When you use the wine cabinet for the first time or restart the appliance after it has been turned off for a long time, there could be a few degrees variance between the temperature you select and the one indicated on the LED display.
The interior light o When the control panel is unlocked, you can use the light button to switch the interior light on and off. o The light will remain on unless it is turned off manually by pressing the light button. Setting the temperature o The temperature setting for the upper zone is adjustable within the range of 5°C - 12°C / 41°F - 54°F.
Loading the wine cabinet IMPORTANT: Your appliance is ideally suited to store 0.75 litre Bordeaux style wine bottles. While it can store larger bottles, you must make sure that they do not prevent the door from shutting properly. o Always check that you can close the door without it fouling on a wine bottle, before shutting it.
Storing your wines The chart below indicates the ideal storage temperatures for different types of wine:- Temperature Temperature Type of wine (Celsius) (Fahrenheit) Red wine (*) 15.5 – 18.5°C 59.9 – 65.3°F White wine (**) 10 - 15°C 50 – 59°F Sparkling 7.2 –...
o Special stoppers that keep wine sparkling and Champagne bubbling for one or two days after opening, can be bought at most good wine shops. o When stored correctly, white wines can keep well for up to two years. Full bodied reds will age well for ten years and dessert wines will age well for up to twenty years.
Slight effervescence in still wine- this isn’t really a problem with the way the wine has been stored, but as a result of incomplete malolactic fermentation before the wine was bottled. A good way to get rid of the effervescence is to let the wine breathe. Alternatively you can use a bottle vacuum device, after about five minutes the effervescence will vanish.
o After washing the appliance, wipe over the area that you have cleaned with a damp cloth and then dry it thoroughly. o When cleaning is complete, dry your hands and then reconnect the plug to your mains supply. Defrosting o Defrosting occurs automatically inside of the wine cabinet during operation.
o Make sure the shelves are fully engaged before loading any bottle into the cabinet. Pull the shelves out all the way to the STOP position and push them back in several times to make sure the shelves are properly engaged. Moving your wine cabinet If you need to move your wine cabinet to another location you should follow the steps outlined below.
Installation IMPORTANT: Before installation and usage read all the instructions and make sure that the voltage (V) and the frequency (Hz) indicated on the rating plate are exactly the same as the voltage and frequency in your home. The rating plate can be found on the front left edge of the inside of the wine cabinet.
The green and yellow wire must be connected to the terminal marked “E” (earth), or by the earth symbol, or coloured green and yellow. o When the connection is completed, no stray strands or cut wire should be present. The cord clamp must be secured over the outer sheath.
Built-in installation o Your wine cabinet can be used as a freestanding or a built in unit. The clearances shown in the above drawing should be followed for both types of installation. o In particular the depth dimension must be observed. o IMPORTANT: The vent at the base of the appliance is for ventilation.
Adjusting the height and levelling off your wine cabinet o The appliance is equipped with adjustable feet, so that the height may be adjusted to level the cabinet on uneven floor surfaces. o We recommend that two people carry out this procedure. o The height must be adjusted prior to building the appliance into the housing unit and it should be set at such a height that the top panel of the appliance fits exactly below the kitchen worktop.
