Q: What humidity controls are available on the LIEBHERR WKES 4177 wine cellar?

The LIEBHERR WKES 4177 wine cellar features a fan switch which is the main humidity control. This system creates an environment inside the appliance that is equivalent to that of a natural wine cellar, allowing for optimal preservation of your bottles with the necessary humidity level for proper wine aging. Activating the humidity control: To activate the fan switch, press and hold the Alarm button, then press the Light button. The indicator light will turn on, confirming that the system is active. This activation increases the humidity level inside the appliance, thus preventing the corks from drying out - a crucial issue for wine preservation. Deactivation: To deactivate the switch, repeat the same procedure: press and hold the Alarm button, then press the Light button. The light will turn off, deactivating the enhanced humidity management system. The WKES 4177 complements this control with an automatic defrosting system that maintains optimal humidity by preventing excessive moisture buildup. Condensed water automatically drains into a reservoir at the back of the appliance and evaporates thanks to the heat from the compressor. Additionally, an active charcoal filter located in the lower part ensures consistent air quality, a determining factor for wine preservation. This filter should be replaced once a year.
