Bottle ageing compartment The ageing compartment's main function is that of guaranteeing that your wines are preserved in optimal conditions. The temperature has been set in the factory at a temperature held to be excellent in most cases and is 15°C in the upper compartment. Wine has a complex nature and it derives from a long and slow process. In order to best express its attributes, very specific conditions are necessary. All wines are preserved at the same temperature, but, depending on their different characteristics, wines are served and tasted at very different temperatures (see the Table of ideal wine temperatures). Therefore, just as for manufacturers' wine cellars, for your new appliance, the absolute temperature value is not important for preserving your wine. Rather, the constant temperature through time is important. Wine preservation is ideal at any temperature, as long as that temperature does not vary. Using the wine cellar Manual temperature control When you plug in your wine cellar, the display shows the temperature inside the cellar: it has been set to reach 15 ° C and become steady on it. Should you need to adjust it, follow the instructions below:

1. When you plug in your wine cellar, the display

shows the temperature that has been set

button for one second (see the Control Panel). The temperature will begin to blink.

or buttons until you reach the desired temperature.

4. Wait 5 seconds for the temperature to stop

5. Wait until the wine cellar reaches its temperature

before you place the wine bottles inside. The inside light does not go on (or it goes off temporarily) when the inside temperature goes over 24° C. This allows you to reach the pre-set temperature more quickly. Taking out the wooden shelves

The wooden shelves are not sliding. Do not take them out when loaded with bottles, to prevent the risk of the bottles breaking. You can take the shelves out for cleaning only when they are not loaded with any bottles.EN

Table of ideal wine temperatures This table indicates the approximate temperatures at which wine should be served. Should one of your wines need to be served at a temperature that is greater than the temperature inside your wine cellar, we suggest that you leave it wine out for the time that is necessary before you serve it. 17°C 17°C 17°C 13°C 6°C 8°C 17°C 11°C 18°C 17°C 6°C 16°C 13°C 6°C 12°C 6°C 8°C 11°C 11°C 10°C 8°C 11°C 15°C 10°C 7°C 14°C 8-18°C 12°C 14°C 16°C Amarone Barbaresco Barolo Beaujolais White liquered Bordeaux Dry White Bordeaux Red Bordeaux White Bourgogne Red Bourgogne Brunello Champagne Chianti Classico Languedoc-Roussillon Passito di Pantelleria Rosé Provence Dry and Sweet Sparkling W ines Verdicchio di Matelica e dei Castelli di Jesi White wines from Trentino Alto Adige Franciacorta White Wines Dry aromatic white wines Dry, young, and fruity white wines White wines from Friuli Venezia Giulia Rodano wines Dry white wines from the Loire Liquered wines from the Loire Red wines from the Loire Liquered Passito wines Rosè Wines, New Wines Light red wines with mild tannic Red, rather tannic wines with medium structureEN

Stocking the wine bottles Standard 24-bottle stock The 24-bottle stock (for standard, mixed, and renana bottles) is recommended for wines that need to be visible and easily removed. STANDARD 24 Bottles (100% lying down) 3 shelves Position each bottle into the slots on the 3 wooden shelves. 6 bottles can be placed on the bottom of the wine cellar. We suggest you place the Renana bottles onto the lower shelf and the bottom of the wine cellar because they have been specially designed to hold larger bottles. ! The wooden shelf can safely hold up to 22 bottles. Champagne bottle stock Champagne bottles are larger than standard bottles. They must be placed onto the base of the wine cellar, which can hold up to 5. If you want to stock more than 5 Champagne bottles in your wine cellar, remove the 3th shelf and stock the bottles in two rows (placing the bottles in the second row between those on the bottom row). This will hold up to 9 bottles. Some stocking configurations PRESERVATION 28 Bottles (100% lying down)EN
