If this device, which uses magnetic door closing, replaces a device equipped with a spring closing system, we advise you to destroy the spring closing system before disposing of the old device. This will prevent children from locking themselves inside it and endangering their lives. Location Place your cabinet well away from heat sources (heater, cooker, direct sunlight). For proper operation of the device, the ambient room temperature should be between +16°C and +38°C (class N/ST). Outside these limits, the device will not operate properly. – Ensure that air can circulate freely behind the device: do not place it too close to a wall, in order to avoid noise from vibration. Ensure that air can circulate freely all around the device. Insufficient ventilation will lead to poor operation and increased energy consumption.

he cooling system According to specialists, the ideal temperature for wine storage is around 12 ° C, in the range of 10 ° to 14 ° C. Do not confuse with the operating temperature, which varies depending on the specificity of each type of wine from 5 to 18 ° C. It is especially important to avoid sudden temperature changes. Designed by specialists, for wine lovers, this device, unlike the single refrigerator, electronically ensures constant average temperature control.

OADING The maximum number of bottles that can be loaded into the cabinet are for information only; this information is not contractual; it provides a means for rapidly estimating the size of the device. The information comes from tests carried out using standard bottles; in reality, in extreme conditions it would be possible to load a greater number of bottles without racks, but a "diverse wine cellar” is used in many different ways; the daily use of a wine cabinet means that it must carry fewer bottles. Therefore you will probably load fewer bottles then the given maximum numbers. Loadi ng for maximum capacities PRO50M : 50 bottles max PRO360M : 36 bottles max PRO680M : 68 bottles max PRO560B : 56 bottles max PRO1320M :132 bottles max PRO1200B : 120 bottles max32 PRO50M only Other models Each row can hold a maximum of 12 bottles maximum The maximum number of stored bottles is based on standard Bordeaux bottles containing 0.75 L. For better conservation and avoid food waste To avoid spoiling the wine, it is important that the temperature remains stable in the cavity, avoid frequently opening the door and blocking the interior vents. To avoid the appearance of mold, please avoid having too much humidity in the cavity.33 USAGE Starting up the device Once the wine cabinet is properly installed, we advise that you clean the inside using warm water with a low concentration of dishwashing liquid.
