Use

The WMF AMBIENT champagne and wine cooler is suitable for chilling wine, champagne and water bottles with a diameter of up to 92mm .

Initial operation

Please note that no electrically conductive objects should be placed near the device, and ensure that the cable is not twisted to guarantee trouble-free use of the WMF Easy Touch function.

Coolpack

The coolpack is included in the box of the WMF AMBIENT champagne and wine cooler. This should be chilled in the freezer at a temperature of -18^ for at least four hours before use in the champagne and wine cooler to achieve the maximum cooling.

USB adapter

The box includes a USB adapter. This power to the LED light or recharges the rechargeable batteries, if being used.

Batteries/rechargeable batteries

Batteries/rechargeable batteries are not included.

Either batteries (AA) or rechargeable batteries can be used in this cooler. All batteries must have the same capacity and should ideally be the same

WARNING: do not connect the USB cable if non-rechargeable batteries are being used. There is a risk that the batteries might leak and this could cause considerable damage to health or personal injury.

Removing/inserting upper LED light ring

The upper LED light ring can be removed so the coolpack can be easily taken out for cleaning. When putting in the LED light ring, please note that it can only be inserted in one position. The triangles printed on the top of the light ring and in the casing of the wine cooler provide guidance for inserting the upper LED light ring. A click will confirm that the light ring has been correctly positioned. The LED light ring will only work if the ring has been placed correctly.

Initial operation of LED light

Once the coolpack and upper LED light ring have been inserted in the wine cooler from the top, the ON/OFF switch on the bottom of the wine cooler should be in Position 1 to switch on the light. It must be switched on for the LED to work. Then, simply touch the base of the stainless steel casing and the wine cooler will be illuminated

This appliance features decorative LED illumination at the top and bottom of the stainless steel casing. The individually controllable ambient light has three different brightness settings.

Three ways in which the LED lights on this appliance work:

Example 1: the wine cooler is connected to the power socket via the USB adaptor. Once the ON/OFF switch on the wine cooler is in Position 1, the LED light can be switched on via the Easy Touch function on the base of the wine cooler:

1st Touch: 10% brightness 2nd Touch: 50% brightness 3rd Touch: 100% brightness

4th Touch: off

• Example 2: the wine cooler is connected to the power socket via the USB adapter and rechargeable batteries are also inserted. The same as example 1. In addition, a green LED will blink at the bottom of the light ring (approx. every 2 seconds) to indicate that the rechargeable batteries are not fully charged. The green LED will switch off once the rechargeable batteries are fully charged.

• Example 3: only batteries/rechargeable batteries are being used If the ON/OFF switch is in Position I, a green LED on the bottom of the ring will be continuously illuminated. This indicates that the energy being used is supplied by the rechargeable batteries. At the top brightness level (100%), standard non-rechargeable batteries will last around 4 hours.

Tip: reduce the level of brightness to prolong battery life and illumination.

Switching WMF Ambient light on and off using the WMF Easy Touch function

The WMF Easy Touch function allows for easy operation of the LED light.
- Touch the stainless steel casing on the base to switch the illumination on and off.

Repeatedly touching the casing cycles through the three brightness settings and then switches the light off.

1st Touch: 10 % brightness

2nd Touch: 50% brightness
3rd Touch: 100% brightness
4th Touch: off
