4. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Before using your wine cellar
- Remove the inner and outer packaging. Remove your wine cellar from the transport pallet by unscrewing the two screws on the frame at the back of the device.
- Before connecting the cellar to the electrical socket, leave it in position for 24 hours. This will reduce the possibility of malfunction of the refrigeration circuit due to transport.
- Clean the inside using a soft cloth and lukewarm water.
Using your wine cellar
Your wine cellar must be positioned in a room with an ambient temperature between +10°C and +32°C. Alternatively, if the cellar is fitted with the winter system, the range is extended to 0°C to 32°C.
Installing your wine cellar
- This wine cellar is designed for free-standing installation.
- Position it in a place with sufficient strength to support its weight when loaded.
- To get the best from your appliance with the lowest energy consumption, do not place the appliance close to a heat source (heater, cooker, etc.), do not expose it to direct sunlight, and do not place it in a room which is too cold.
- Screw the stopper supplied inside the wine cellar to maintain a 10cm minimum distance between the back of the cellar and the wall in front of it is placed. Ensure that your wine cellar is perfectly horizontal, then slightly raise the two front feet. (Use of a spirit level is recommended). This will prevent any movement due to instability, causing noise and vibration, and will ensure that the door seals perfectly.

Replacing the batteries on the digital display (depending on model)
- Remove the display unit
- Open it and change the batteries (2 x LR44)
- Close it and reinsert it
5. EQUIPMENT
The ventilation system: charcoal filter
Pure air continually changed and filtered.
Your Avintage wine cellar is equipped with a continuous fresh air system, filtered by a charcoal filter. This is a 5 cm diameter black plastic washer in the top left of the cellar at the back. It should be replaced annually and can be bought from the accessories section of our web site at www.avintage.com.
To remove it, push it inwards and do not be afraid to tap it a little to break its seal with the insulation. Finish removing it by putting your hand behind the evaporator cover. The hole visible in the rear lower section is normal and provides negative pressure, to ensure internal air circulation.

The anti-vibration system
Wine does not like to be disturbed. It especially dislikes vibration. This is why your wine cellar's slow-cycle compressor is mounted on special shock absorbers called "silent blocks".
Likewise, the inner container is insulated from the body by a thick layer of polyurethane foam which also has the particular feature of absorbing vibration.
Depending on the model, the wine bottle shelves are made of solid wood and absorb vibration better than metal. On some models, the shelf supports are also equipped with rubber pads. Your bottles are enjoying perfect peace!
Hygrometry
Your Avintage cellar is equipped with a dynamic humidity system, which regulates the humidity level in the cabinet entirely automatically. No addition of water is required.
It is necessary to wait a few days after start-up for the average (between 55 and 70%) to stabilise in the cabinet. Frost will form at the bottom of the cabinet: no cause for worry, this is a normal phenomenon, which may appear when the appliance is used for the first time during the hotter periods of the year and which will disappear when the natural inertia level is reached.
The winter system (optional on some models)
The winter kit is a frost protection system which enables the cellar to operate in an environment where the temperature is between 0 and 32°C. A sensor located outside the appliance triggers a low power electrical element when the ambient temperature in the room falls to around 8°C in case. This is a low power element to avoid sudden rises in the temperature of the wine and so avoid thermal shocks that are damaging to the preservation of the wine. The kit is intended to raise the cellar's internal temperature even before there is a thermal exchange with the bottles.
IMPORTANT: If the temperature in the room where your wine cellar is located is about 12^ C ( ± 2^ C), no production of warm or cold air will be observed. The appliance is then completely silent and this is quite normal. It should not be considered as a malfunction.
The anti-UV system
Models with a glass door are UV treated, thus filtering out damaging ultraviolet rays: your wines are therefore protected.
Defrosting
Your appliance is equipped with an automatic defrost cycle. When a cooling cycle finishes, the appliance's refrigerated surfaces are defrosted automatically. The defrost water is channelled into a condensates evaporation tray which is located in the back of the appliance near the compressor. The heat produced by the compressor then evaporates the condensates collected in the tray.
Lock (depending on model)
For cellars fitted with a lock, the keys can be found in the bag along with the manual. To open the cellar, turn the key anti clockwise.
Subdued reading light (depending on model)
When the door is opened, the switch located under the top panel provides you a low emissive LED light to make it easier to read labels in a dark room. Don't forget to switch it off after closing your wine cabinet by pressing the switch symbolized by the "lamp" icon.
Shelves
Each cellar has its own type of bottle shelf.
Note that there is no ideal storage arrangement. A collection of bottles of wine is rich when it is varied. It is up to you to arrange the storage capacity of your wine cellar according to your collection.
Additional shelves may be ordered as a chargeable option from your retailer or after-sales service, or from our web site www.avintage.com.
Tip: to prevent damage to the door seal, ensure that the door is fully open before pulling out the shelves to add or remove bottles.

Since this range of appliances is intended for storing items of value, we have been careful to select quality components and to design suitable manufacturing techniques to ensure optimum safety in operation.
6. LOADING
The maximum recommended bottle loading quantities are guidelines and are not contractually binding; they provide a quick estimate of the size of the appliance (similar to the litre capacities of refrigerators).
They relate to tests conducted with a standard bottle: the "75 cl traditional Bordeaux" bottle.
How to fill and maintain your wine cellar:
Your wine cellar is delivered with one or more wine bottle trays made of metal or wood.
Start by loading the lower part of your wine cellar. Then simply stack the bottles with their bases facing backward in the back row and conversely for the front row. The bottle shelves should be arranged according to the size of your wine cellar and the shapes of your wine bottles. It is very important not to exceed the load limit for each shelf (refer to the load written inside your cellar). Do not exceed the designated maximum capacity (warning: do not obstruct the charcoal filter).
The shelves should be arranged according to the size of your wine cellar and the shape of your wine bottles. In reality and in extreme cases, you could store more bottles by stacking the same type of bottle without using shelves, but a “varied cellar” comprises a wide variety of bottles and the “practical” aspect of everyday cellar management limits its capacity. You will therefore probably load to a little less capacity than the nominal maximum capacity.
Types of bottle:
natural_image
Illustration of multiple wine bottles with green and blue labels, shown in 3D perspective without any text or symbols.We see here 4 kinds of 75 cl wine bottles: Burgundy and Bordeaux wine bottles of different dimensions. There are many others of all shapes and sizes. You will note the storage differences depending on bottle heights, diameters and alternating position method.
For example, if a wine cellar is loaded only with Burgundy wine bottles, there will be approximately 30% fewer bottles than the initial quantity calculated for Bordeaux bottles.

Before cleaning your appliance (something that should be done regularly), disconnect it by removing the plug or by pulling the fuse on the circuit.
Before using your appliance for the first time and regularly thereafter, we recommend that you clean the inside and outside (front, sides and top) with warm water mixed with a gentle cleaning product. Rinse with clean water and allow to dry before reconnecting. Do not use solvents or abrasives.
Wash the plastic coating on the steel shelves with a mild detergent solution and then dry with a soft cloth. Wooden shelves require no particular maintenance. When the appliance is switched on for the first time, there may be a residual odour. In that case, run the appliance empty for a few hours at the coldest possible temperature. The cold will kill any odours.
8. STORING YOUR WINE CELLAR
If you will not be using your appliance for short periods, leave the control panel with its usual settings.
- Remove all bottles from the appliance
- Unplug the appliance
- Thoroughly clean the inside and outside of the appliance
- Leave the door open to prevent condensation, unpleasant odours and mould
9. WHAT TO DO IN THE EVENT OF A POWER CUT
Most power cuts are resolved within a short time. A power cut of 1 or 2 hours will not affect the temperature in your cabinet. To protect your wines during a power cut, avoid opening the door as much as possible.
During very long power cuts, take the necessary measures to protect your wine.
- If the appliance is disconnected or if there is a power cut, you must wait three to five minutes before re-starting. If you try to re-start before this time, the compressor will only re-start after 3 to 5 minutes (if the temperature requires).
- When switching on for the first time or following a prolonged shutdown, it is possible that when restarting, the temperatures selected and those displayed are not the same. This is normal. It will take a few hours before they stabilise.
10. IF YOU NEED TO MOVE YOUR WINE CELLAR
- First, disconnect your cellar
- Remove all the bottles from the cellar and secure moving parts
- To avoid damaging the levelling screws on the feet, screw them tightly into the base
- Move the appliance in an upright position (preferably) or take note of the direction in which the appliance may be laid down by looking at its packaging.
11. IN THE EVENT OF A BREAKDOWN
Despite the care we take during production, a breakdown can never be totally ruled out. Before contacting your retailer's after-sales department, please check that:
• The appliance is properly plugged in
• There is not a power cut in progress
- The breakdown is not one of those described in the table at the end of this manual
IMPORTANT: if the power cable supplied is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, a service centre approved by the brand or the retailer. In all events, it must be replaced by qualified personnel in order to avoid any risk of injury.
IF THESE CHECKS REVEAL NOTHING, THEN CONTACT YOUR RETAILER'S AFTER-SALES DEPARTMENT.
CAUTION!
Unplug the appliance before carrying out any maintenance or repair work.
12. PROBLEMS AND SOLUTIONS
You can solve many simple problems with your wine cellar yourself, thus avoiding having to contact your after-sales department. Try the following suggestions.
| PROBLEM | POSSIBLE CAUSES |
| The cellar will not start | The cellar is not plugged in.If your wine cellar is in an unheated room, refer to the section "Winter Kit".The fuse in your electrical installation has blown. |
| The cellar does not cool sufficiently | The thermostat position is set to provide insufficient cooling: adjust it.The external temperature is beyond the cellar's operating temperature. |
| The cellar is too cold | The thermostat is set to provide excessive cooling: adjust it. |
| The humidity level is too highBottle labels are coming unstuck | Humidity is regulated by the principle of thermodynamics. During a cooling period, a frost forms (cold air dries the air), humidity will fall to 40%. During a heating period, the frost melts and humidity may reach 70%.Taking an average of these two values, we obtain an average humidity of 55%. It is essential to calculate an average value over several cycles and not from a single reading.There are two alternatives for reducing the cellar's humidity:- Replace the charcoal filters- Decrease the temperature slightly inside the cellar |
| The humidity level is too low | Humidity is regulated by the principle of thermodynamics. During a cooling period, a frost forms (cold air dries the air), humidity will fall to 40%. During a heating period, the frost melts and humidity may reach 70%.Taking an average of these two values, we obtain an average humidity of 55%. It is essential to calculate an average value over several cycles and not from a single reading.To increase the humidity in the cellar, there are two alternatives:- Place a jar of water in the upper part of the cellar- Raise the temperature slightly inside the cellar |
| The temperature in the cellar is not consistent | The actual temperature to take into account is the temperature in the bottle. The temporary variations which you observe correspond to the compressor's operating cycles.It is through this principle of a series of small variations in the air inside your wine cellar that a suitable average temperature is obtained, ensuring the best conditions for maturing your wine.If the temperature noted in your wine cellar is different from that usually seen and it does not change continuously (over several hours and except when located in a non-heated room with a temperature of between 10 and 12°C), please contact your retailer's after-sales service. |
| The cellar's compressor runs continuously | If no cold is being produced, call your retailer's after-sales service. |
| Vibration | Check to ensure that the cellar is indeed level and that all the feet are resting on the ground. |
| The cellar makes a lot of noise | The compressor is noisy: check that it is fixed to the rubber shock absorbers (silent blocks) and whether it is in contact with another element.Small rattling sounds are heard: they result from the circulation of gas in the pipes and are part of the normal operation of your wine cellar. |
| There are unpleasant smells in the cellar | Clean the cellar and ventilate it for several days.Replace the charcoal filters. |
| The bottle shelves sag when loaded | Check that you are not exceeding the load capacity and that the shelves are correctly positioned. |
| There is water in the bottom of the cellar | This is not detrimental to your wine and is a normal phenomenon during the first few days of use.Ensure that the two front feet are slightly raised.Ensure that the condensation water evacuation pipe is not blocked. |
| The door does not close correctly | The cellar is not level.The door seal is dirty or damaged.The shelves are not positioned correctly.A part of the contents is preventing the door from closing. |
