The appliance shall not be exposed to rain.

• Keep always the keys in separate place and out of reach of children.
• Before servicing or cleaning the appliance, unplug it from the mains.

As the appliance contain a refrigerant which is flammable (Isobutane R600a) it is essential to ensure that the refrigerant pipes are not damaged. If damage does occur, avoid sparks or naked flame in the vicinity of the appliance, ensure that the room is well ventilated, disconnect the power supply, and contact your supplier. The unit must only be serviced by qualified technicians from an approved service centre.

This appliance is not intended for use by young children or infirm persons unless they have been adequately supervised by a responsible person to ensure that they can use the appliance safely".

"Young children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance".

Old appliances

Old refrigerators and freezers are often fitted with complicated latches that can only be opened from the outside. If you have one of these old units stored away somewhere, or if you scrap one, remember to destroy the latch first in order to prevent children from being exposed to great danger by getting locked inside the unit.

Before use

Before operating your new appliance, please read the following instructions carefully as they contain important information on safety, installation, operation and maintenance. Keep the instructions for future reference.

On receipt, check to ensure that the appliance has not been damaged during transport. Transport damage should be reported to the local distributor before the wine cooler is put to use.

Remove the packaging. Clean the inside of the cabinet using warm water with a mild detergent. Rinse with clean water and dry thoroughly (see cleaning instructions). Use a soft cloth.

If during transport the appliance has been laid down, or if it has been stored in cold surroundings (colder than +5^ ), it must be allowed to stabilise in an upright position for at least an hour before being switched on.

Placement

For safety and operational reasons, the appliance must not be installed outdoors.

The appliance should be placed on a level surface in a dry, well ventilated room (max. 75% relative air humidity). Never place the appliance close to sources of heat such as cookers or radiators, and avoid placing it in direct sunlight.

Room temperature

The climate class is stated on the nameplate (see fig. 1 on page 3 and fig. 11 on page 13). This specifies the optimum room temperature.

Wine coolers with winter position, however, function at room temperatures as low as 5^ .

Climate class	Optimum room tem- perature
SN	+10 °C to +32 °C
N	+16 °C to +32 °C
ST	+18 °C to +38 °C
T	+18 °C to +43 °C

Installation

The surface on which the appliance is to be placed must be level. Do not use a frame or similar.

The appliance can be installed as a freestanding unit against a wall, built into a kitchen element, or lined up with other appliances (figs 2-3).

The appliance viewed from above

If the appliance is placed beside a wall, there must be sufficient room for its door to be opened wide enough to allow the shelves to be pulled out (fig. 4).

Fig. 4

Ventilation

It is important that the appliance be well ventilated and that air can circulate unhindered above, below and around it. The figures below illustrate how the necessary air circulation around the appliance can be ensured (figs 5-6).

Fig. 5

Fig. 6

The distance pieces on the rear of the appliance ensure sufficient air circulation. Fit the two caps supplied with the appliance as shown in fig. 7.

Fig. 7

Setting up

It is important that the appliance be absolutely level. It can be levelled by screwing the adjustable feet at the front of the appliance up or down (figs 8-9). Use a spirit level to check that the appliance is absolutely level sideways.

Fig. 8

The door can be changed from right-hinged to left-hinged and vice versa as follows:

1. Lay the appliance on its back and loosen the upper hinge.

2. Remove the upper hinge. 3. Rotate the glass door through 180^ (on WSN 1412 LT, pull the handle to loosen it on the inside from beneath the sealing strip).

4. Carefully remove the covers on the side of the plinth using a flat-headed screwdriver.

5.Pull up the hinge pin... ...and fit it on the opposite side.

6. Unscrew the lock pin using a flat-headed screwdriver.

7. When the lock pin has been loosened completely, pull it up together with the lock cylinder and refit on opposite side.

8. Click the covers into place on the plinth sides on the opposite side.

9. Fit the door onto the bottom pin, fit the top hinge and tighten securely.

1. After reversing the door, it is important to check that the sealing strip provides a tight seal all the way round. If it does not, carefully heat the strip all the way round using a hair dryer. Then ease the strip outwards slightly so that it forms a tight seal against the cabinet. Be careful not to heat the strip so much that it melts!

The appliance is intended for connection to alternating current. The required voltage (V) and frequency (Hz) are stated on the nameplate inside the appliance. Power must be connected via an independent wall socket outlet.

If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or a similar qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.

Technical data

This appliance complies with CE marking regulations, directives and standards. Low Voltage Directive 73/23/EEC. EMC Directive 89/336/EEC.

Electronic controls

The electronic controls ensure that the set temperatures are maintained at the top and bottom of the cabinet. This is accomplished by complex control of the refrigerating system the heating element and the fan. Following any power failure, the temperature settings are automatically recalled.

The electronic controls have the following functions:

• Temperature setting
• Temperature display
  Automatic defrosting
• Fault-finding, emergency and service programs
• Low-temperature alarm

On/off switch

The light switch is used to select either continuous illumination or illumination only when the door is opened.

Temperature display

The display shows the actual temperature at the top or bottom of the cabinet. To switch the display between the top and bottom sections, short-press the top and bottom buttons respectively, which section is shown is indicated by a line of light in the display just beside the buttons. The temperature display has a built-in filter that simulates the actual temperature in the bottles. The displayed temperature is therefore not affected by transient fluctuations in air temperature.

Temperature setting

The temperature is set using the two buttons on the control panel. The upper button is used to set the temperature at the top of the cabinet. The lower button is used to set the temperature at the bottom. Deactivate the childproof lock by pressing the button for 3 seconds. The display then starts flashing

and shows the current temperature setting for the zone concerned. This applies to both buttons/sections. When the display starts flashing, the temperature can be set by scrolling the setting between 22 and 5^ . When the desired setting is displayed, release the button for 3 seconds. The setting will then be stored and the childproof lock reactivated.

Note that the bottom section cannot be given a higher temperature setting than the top section. The highest available temperature setting for the bottom section is therefore identical to the actual setting for the top section.

Low-temperature alarm

If the temperature has been below 2^ for more than 1 hour, the display flashes and Lo/actual temperature are alternately shown. Wine cannot mature properly at sub-zero temperatures.

Two-zone setting for serving temperature

Typical serving temperature settings for the top and bottom sections are 16^ and 6^ respectively. With these settings, a suitable temperature gradient will be achieved in the cabinet for the storage of various types of wine distributed from top to bottom as follows:

• heavy red wines +16 to +19°C
• rosé and light red wines +12 to +16°C
• white wines +10 to +12°C
• champagne and sparkling wines +6 to +8°C

It is recommended that wine be served at a temperature which is a couple of degrees lower than the desired drinking temperature as the wine will be warmed slightly when it is poured into the glass.

Single-zone setting for long-term storage.

For long-term wine storage, the top and bottom sections should both be set at 12^ . With identical settings for the top and bottom sections, the controls will maintain an even temperature throughout the cabinet. However, the temperature in the room will gradually affect the temperature in the cabinet through its door and sides, creating a slight temperature gradient from top to bottom. The controls will maintain the set temperature at the bottom of the cabinet, and any deviation from the setting will therefore occur at the top. The difference will vary from 0 to 3^ , depending on the ambient temperature.

Automatic defrosting

The wine cooler is defrosted automatically. Defrost water runs through a pipe and is collected in a tray above the compressor where the heat generated by the compressor causes it to evaporate. The defrost water tray should be cleaned at intervals.

Cleaning

Before cleaning the appliance, unplug it from the main supply. The cabinet is best cleaned using warm water (max. 65^ ) with a little mild detergent. Never use cleaning agents that scour. Use a soft cloth. Rinse with clean water and dry thoroughly. The defrost water channel, in which condensation from the evaporator runs, is located at the bottom of the rear inside wall of the cabinet and must be kept clean. Add a few drops of disinfectant, e.g. Rodalon, to the defrost water drain a couple of times a year, and clean the drain using a pipe cleaner or similar. Never use sharp or pointed implements. The sealing strip around the door must be cleaned regularly to prevent discolouration and prolong service life. Use clean water. After cleaning the sealing strip, check that it continues to provide a tight seal. Dust collecting on the condenser on the rear of the cabinet, the compressor and in the compressor compartment is best removed using a vacuum cleaner.

Replacing the light tube

Before replacing the light tube, unplug the appliance from the main supply. Remove the lamp cover using a small flat-headed screwdriver. Replace the PLC tube (11 W). Refit the lamp cover, reconnect the power supply and start the appliance by pressing the on/off switch.
