How to clean the wine cellar?

Unplug the appliance. Clean the inside with hot water mixed with baking soda (about 2 tablespoons per liter of water). The shelves can be washed with a mild detergent. Wipe dry thoroughly.

Why doesn't the light turn on?

Check that the appliance is plugged in and the circuit breaker hasn't tripped. Make sure the LIGHT button is not in off mode. If the LED is burnt out, only a professional can replace it.

How to install the anti-tip bracket?

The bracket attaches to the wall, wooden floor, or concrete floor depending on your floor type. Follow the diagrams in the manual: use the provided screws and wall plugs. After installation, check that the appliance does not tip.

What do the 'HI' and 'LO' displays mean?

'HI' indicates the internal temperature exceeds 23 °C; 'LO' indicates it is below 0 °C. In both cases, an audible alarm sounds. Check the door closure and environment.

What is the ideal temperature for storing wine?

For most wines, a temperature of 12 to 14 °C is recommended. Sparkling wines are stored at 6 °C, dry whites at 8-10 °C, light reds at 13 °C, and full-bodied reds at 16-18 °C. Refer to the table in the manual.

Temperature Alarm

If the temperature inside is higher than 23°C, it will display "HI" on the display panel, and after one hour the alarm/buzzer will sound. This indicates that the temperature inside is too high. If the temperature inside is lower than 0°C, it will display "LO" on the display panel and at the same time the alarm and malfunction indicator is active.

Temperature Recollection Function

In the event of a power interruption, the wine chiller can remember the previous temperature settings, and when the power is restored, the cooler temperature will go back to the same setting temperature as before power off.

➢ Overtime Open the Door Alarm

When you forget to close the door or the door is not closed completely, the buzzer alarm will sound after 5 minutes. Please close the door completely and avoid the loss of cold energy.

Internal Light

In order to reduce energy consumption, the LED light within this wine cabinet will automatically switch off when the door is closed. If you would prefer the LED light to remain on continuously, this is possible. Please press and hold the "LIGHT" button for 5 seconds, the display will show "LP". After 4 seconds the display will revert back to normal and the light will remain on until manually switched off.

If you would like to revert back and conserve energy (recommended), press and hold the "LIGHT" button for 5 seconds, the display will show "LF". After 4 seconds the display will revert back to normal, the light will be on when the door is open and turn off when the door is closed.

➢ Replaceable (LED only) light source by a professional. This product contains a light source of energy efficiency class G.

Shelves Instruction

Do not cover shelves with aluminum foil or any other material as this will impede air flow inside the cabinet and can adversely affect the interior cabinet temperature.

To remove the shelves:

1. Fully extend the shelf.
2. Lift up the front of the shelf.
3. Holding the shelf track, push the shelf in and then up to release it from the rear dampers.

NOTE:

• If the unit is unplugged, power lost, or turned off, you must wait 3 to 5 minutes before restarting the unit. If you attempt to restart before this time delay, the Wine cooler/beverage cooler will not start.
• When you use the Wine cooler/beverage cooler for the first time or restart the Wine cooler/beverage cooler after having been shut off for a long time, there could be a few degrees variance between the temperature you select and the one indicated on the LED readout. This is normal and it is due to the length of the activation time. Once the Wine cooler/beverage cooler is running for a few hours everything will be back to normal.
