General information

This appliance is a compressor refrigerator with integral glass door, designed for cooling and storage of wine.

The unit is classified as Climate Class 'N' (Normal) and designed for domestic use. It complies with all relevant norms for domestic refrigeration appliances.

Important safety instructions

• To prevent the risk of personal injury or damage to the freezer, the unit must only be transported while in its original packaging. For unpacking and installation, 2 persons are needed.

• The cooling circuit in this appliance contains the refrigerant isobutane (R600a), a natural gas with a high level of environmental compatibility, which is nevertheless flammable. Ensure, therefore, that none of the components of the refrigerant circuit become damaged during transportation and installation of the appliance. If damage to the cooling circuit does occur, do not switch on or connect

the appliance to the mains power. In the case that there is an open fire or any other sources of ignition in the vicinity of the refrigerant gas, make sure it is removed immediately from this area and that the room is then thoroughly ventilated.

• Warning: Do not damage the cooling circuit. Any escaping refrigerant causes damage to the eyes.
• Warning: Keep ventilation openings, in the appliance enclosure or in the built-in structure, clear of obstruction. Sufficient ventilation must be ensured at all times.
• Warning: Do not use any external device (e.g.; heaters or heating fans) to accelerate defrosting.
• Warning: Do not operate any electrical appliances (e.g. ice makers) inside the compartment.
• Before it is connected to the mains power, the unit must be thoroughly checked for transport damage, including its power cord.
• The power cord should be regularly examined for any signs of damage. In the event of such damage being found, the appliance must no longer be used.
• To avoid the risk of fire, do not place any thermo-electric appliances on top of the unit.

Do not operate electric water kettles on top of the unit, in order to avoid liquid boiling over and damaging the electrical insulation.

• This appliance is designed for storing wine only.
• Do not lean or put undue weight on the shelves, door etc.
• Protect the inside of the unit at all times from open flames and any other sources of ignition.

• Remove the plug from the wall socket

• in case of any malfunction,

• before de-frosting,

• during cleaning.

• This appliance is not intended for use by any person (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lacking experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning the use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
  Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

• In order to comply with safety regulations and to avoid hazards, any repairs or modifications to this unit must be carried out by our authorised service personnel, including the replacement of the power cord.
• We reserve the right to introduce technical modifications.
• If the unit is not used for an extended period of time, we recommend keeping the door open.
• If the unit is sold, handed over to a third party or disposed of at a suitable recycling facility, attention must be drawn to the presence of the insulation agent 'cyclopenthane'

C5H10 as well as to the refrigerant R 600 a.

Before using for the first time

• Remove any exterior and interior packaging materials completely.
• Before it is connected to the mains, the unit must be thoroughly checked for transport damage, including its power cord.
• Clean the unit according to the instructions given in the De-frosting and cleaning section below.

Installation

The appliance should be set up in a well-ventilated, dry room. It should be operated in an ambient temperature of 16 to 32^ and a relative humidity of max. 70% . Do not expose the

appliance to direct sunlight, and do not position it next to any heat sources (radiators, cookers etc). If this cannot be avoided, however, a suitable insulation must be installed between the heat source and the unit.

To ensure sufficient air circulation, maintain a minimum distance of 50~mm between the rear of the unit and the wall.

If the floor is uneven, the adjustable feet on the unit can be used to compensate and ensure optimum stability. The whole unit should be installed at a slight angle in such a way that it leans to the rear: this will ensure that the door closes automatically. However, both front feet must be set to the same height.

Ventilation

The heated air around the rear of the unit must be able to circulate freely. Therefore, ensure that the air circulation behind the unit is not obstructed.

Reversible door

The design provides for the door to be reversed, i.e. for right-handed (default installation) to become left-handed.

II

• Take out the two screws (1) to remove the lower hinge (2).
• Take off the door carefully.
• Unscrew and remove the adjustable foot (4).
• Remove the hinge pin (6) and spring (5).
• Remove the blind covers (7) from the left mounting hole and fit it in the corresponding place on the right.
• Fit the spring (5) and hinge pin (6) into the left mounting hole (picture II).
• Re-fit the adjustable foot (4) on the right-hand side.
• Replace the door. Ensure that the hinge pin (6) sits properly in its corresponding guide bushing.
• Hold the door in position and insert the lower hinge (2) in the left-hand side. Secure the hinge with the two screws (1).

Controls and interior light

• Before the unit is connected to the mains power after installation, it should be left standing in position for about 24 hours.

The unit is activated by connecting it to the mains. It is only switched off completely when the plug is removed from the wall socket.

Note: with the temperature control in its OFF-position, only the compressor is switched off.

The temperature in the cabinet can be adjusted by using the temperature control. We recommend setting the temperature control initially to Normal. After a certain time, the actual temperature should then be checked with a thermometer, and adjustments made if necessary. Turning the temperature control clockwise will decrease the temperature, while turning anti-clockwise will increase it.

The interior light can be switched on by means of the separate On/Off switch.

Changing the interior light bulb

• Remove the plug from the wall socket.

• Use a suitable screw-driver to remove the screw (5) behind the light cover (4).

• Slide the cover (4) slightly to the rear and take it off.

• Take out the defective bulb (1) and fit a new 10W-bulb (max. 15 W).
• Slide the cover (4) back into position, replace the screw (5) and tighten it.

Storing wine

• The temperature in the cabinet largely depends on factors such as the ambient temperature, the setting and the number of wine bottles stored.
• Initially, the temperature control should be set to position Normal. If the cooling effect is too strong, turn the temperature control anti-clockwise (towards Min); if it is insufficient, turn it clockwise (towards Max).
• Because of the way the air circulates, different areas of the refrigerator cabinet are affected differently.

The coldest area is in the lower part of the cabinet, and is most suitable for storing wines that require more cooling, such as white wines.

The warmest area is in the higher part of the cabinet, and is suitable for storing wines that require less cooling, such as red wines.

• Always ensure that the door is properly closed and that the seal is not obstructed by bottles stored inside the cabinet.

De-frosting and cleaning

The integral vapouriser is sealed in foam in the rear wall; you may therefore notice a buildup of frost around the rear area. This layer of frost will start melting when the compressor is not working. Through a system of hoses, the melt-water drains into the collection tray below the compressor, where it will be absorbed into the surrounding air. The unit does not therefore require de-frosting, but only proper cleaning instead.

• To enable the melt-water to drain freely, always ensure that the channel and discharge opening in the cabinet are free of any blockage.

Cleaning the unit / periods of non-use

• remove the plug from the wall socket
• remove the bottles from the cabinet
• leave the door open

To prevent any unpleasant odour within the cabinet, it should be cleaned about once every two months. The interior and exterior surfaces and the drain channel may be cleaned with a wet cloth. If necessary, a mild, neutral detergent may be used. Wipe dry thoroughly with a

clean cloth after cleaning.

The marked area (see diagramme on the right) is designed to collect any fluid that may accumulate inside the cabinet. The interior must be kept dry to prevent any damage to the door seals. Any fluid found in the tray can be removed by wiping it dry.

Take care not to remove or damage the rating plate inside the cabinet during cleaning.

Any dust deposits around the ventilation slots on the outside of the unit should be regularly removed using a suitable brush or a vacuum cleaner. The build-up of dust will cause an increase in energy consumption.

The rear of the appliance should be thoroughly cleaned with a soft brush or a vacuum cleaner at least once a year.

Remark: Do not use abrasive tools or materials containing alcohol or harsh cleaning solutions. Do not use any electrical appliances, such as steam cleaners etc., for de-frosting or cleaning.

Trouble-shooting

Certain typical sounds can be heard when the appliance is switched on. These sounds are:

• Caused by the electrical motor within the compressor assembly; during compressor start-up the sound level will be slightly higher for a limited period of time.

• Caused by the cooling agent flowing through the circuit.

In addition, the side of the housing may become warm. This heat is caused by dissipation of the heat generated inside the cabinet.

The following table lists the possible malfunctions, their probable causes and solutions. In the event of operational problems, check first whether a solution can be found using this table. If the problem persists, disconnect the appliance from the mains power and contact our Customer Service Department.

Problem	Possible cause and solution
The appliance does not operate.	- Unit is not connected to the mains power. - A circuit breaker or fuse has been triggered. - Temperature control is set to OFF.
Abnormal noise can be heard during operation.	Either the unit has been improperly set up (e.g. on an uneven floor) or there is contact between the rear-mounted cooling circuit and the power cord, the wall or other object or surface. Verify that all installation instructions in this manual have been correctly complied with.
When opening the door, the rubber seal pops out.	The seal must be re-fitted properly, by pressing in the inner part of the seal. If the seal shows signs of a greasy residue, the seal and the door must be properly cleaned with water and a mild detergent, and then thoroughly dried before the seal is replaced in the door.
Water accumulates on the interior floor.	The melt-water drain system is blocked. Remove blockage and clean drain system.
The temperature inside the cabinet compartment is too cold.	Check the temperature setting: it may be too low.
The temperature inside the cabinet compartment is not low enough.	- Verify that the temperature is set to NORMAL. - The ambient temperature requires a higher temperature setting. - The door has been opened too often, or was left open. - The door is not closed properly. - The rubber seals in the door are not positioned correctly. - Insufficient space between the rear of the unit and the wall.
Condensation is accumulating on the exterior housing.	- A high level of humidity in the ambient air causes condensation. It can be simply wiped off.

Transporting the appliance

The unit must be transported only in its vertical position.

Do not tilt it any more than 30^ . During transport, ensure that the unit is properly secured and protected against shock, vibration and shifting.

Disposal

This appliance has been manufactured from recyclable materials. After removing the plug from the wall socket, the unit should be rendered unusable by cutting off the power cord before being disposed of through special waste collection points in

accordance with local regulations. The refrigerant and the chemical agent in the insulation foam must be disposed of through a competent agency. Take special care not to damage the cooling circuit before the unit is handed over for competent disposal.
