Note: This unit contains the refrigerant Isobutane (R600a), a natural gas that has high environmental compatibility, but is flammable. Although it is flammable, it does not damage the ozone layer or increase the greenhouse effect. The use of this refrigerant results in a slightly higher noise level of the unit. In addition to the compressor noise, you can hear the flow of refrigerant. This is unavoidable and has no negative effect on the performance of the device. Be careful during transport to avoid damage to the refrigerant circuit. Refrigerant leaks can irritate the eyes.

WARNING

When using, during maintenance and when disposing of the appliance, pay attention to the left symbol located on the back or on the compressor of the appliance. This symbol warns you of possible fires. There are flammable substances in the refrigerant lines and in the compressor. Keep the appliance away from sources of fire during use, maintenance and disposal.

Special notes on correct use

• This device is intended exclusively for the storage of wine.
• This appliance is not intended for use as a built-in appliance unless explicitly stated in the instructions.
  • This appliance is not suitable for freezing food.
• The racks were pre-set to allow the most efficient use of energy.

Note: It is recommended to set the temperature to 12 °C. If the temperature is set too high, the wine may spoil. If the temperature is set too low, the power consumption could increase.

Special notes on the shelves

• The shelves have been pre-set to allow the most efficient use of energy.
• Only use the shelves provided by the manufacturer.
• Never block the holes in the shelves or use any other types of shelves that have not been approved by the manufacturer, which may cause poor cooling or increase energy consumption.
• We recommend that you use the shelves as shown so that the energy is used as efficiently as possible.

Notes on ambient temperature

Install this unit in a location where the ambient temperature corresponds to the climate class indicated on the unit's rating plate.

SN Low		This cooling unit is intended for use at ambient temperatures of 10-32 °C.
N Moderate		This cooling unit is intended for use at ambient temperatures of 16-32 °C.
ST Subtropical		This cooling unit is intended for use at ambient temperatures of 16-38 °C.
T Tropical		This cooling unit is intended for use at ambient temperatures of 16-43 °C.

The ambient temperature influences the internal temperature of the wine refrigerator. For optimal operation of the wine refrigerator, we recommend an ambient temperature of 23^ C to 25^ C.

INSTALLATION

Before first use

Let the unit stand for 24 hours before first use to allow the coolant to disperse. Leave the door open during this time to allow production-related odours to dissipate.

Note: All models without front ventilation or ventilation slots on the front are not built-in appliances and must be free-standing.

Location

The place where you place the unit should:

• be resilient and well ventilated.
• be away from direct sunlight and heat sources.
• not be too damp, such as bathrooms or washrooms.
  • have a level floor.
  • have a standardised electrical connection.
  • have a socket outlet with overvoltage protection.
• be far away from microwaves, as their interference could have a negative effect on the unit.

Furthermore, the ambient temperature in the room should be neither very cold nor very warm. Cold and heat can possibly have a negative effect on the function, so that the desired interior temperature is not reached.

Setting up

• Remove all packaging material from and around the refrigerator.
• Position the refrigerator so that the plug is accessible at all times. Disconnect the mains cable and place the unit in its final location. Place it so that the compressor is free and not in contact with other objects or walls.
• Level out any small unevenness in the floor before filling the unit. Use the adjustable feet for this purpose. To do this, turn the back feet completely in and compensate for the slant with the front two feet.

GETTING STARTED

Before the first operation

Remove all the packaging material. Leave the appliance upright for at least 4 hours before inserting the power cord into the socket. This reduces the possibility of malfunction due to improper handling during transport. Clean the inner surfaces with lukewarm water and a soft cloth.

Before switching on

• Make sure that the appliance is installed by a qualified person in accordance with the operating instructions.
• After setting up the appliance, wait four hours before plugging it into the power socket. This allows the refrigerant to be completely distributed in the refrigerant circuit again.
• Clean the outside of the appliance and the removable accessories with a mild soap solution and water before first use.
• Clean the inside of the appliance with a solution of sodium bicarbonate and water. Dry the inside of the appliance and the accessories properly after cleaning.
• You may notice a strange smell when switching on the appliance for the first time. This is normal and the smell disappears as soon as the appliance starts to cool down.

During initial use

Note: When using the appliance for the first time or when switching the appliance on again after a long time, there may be a difference of a few degrees between the temperature you have set and the temperature displayed on the screen. This is normal. If the appliance has been on for a few hours, the temperature will adjust.

• When you switch on the appliance for the first time, the unit's compressor runs continuously until the appliance has cooled down.
• The appliance door should be opened as seldom as possible during cooling.
• If the appliance has been switched off or the power plug has been disconnected from the mains socket, wait at least 5 minutes before switching it on again or reconnecting the power plug to the mains socket.

Filling the appliance

• The appliance is ideal for storing wine bottles that correspond to the size and shape of 0.75 litre Bordeaux. It is possible to store larger bottles of wine. However, care must be taken that the appliance door can be closed properly.
• Before closing the door, always make sure that it is not blocked by a wine bottle.
• If you place several wine bottles in the appliance at the same time, it takes longer for the individual wine bottles to be cooled.
• The number of bottles that can be placed in the appliance varies depending on the size and shape of the wine bottles.
• The maximum number of wine bottles that can be stored is based on standard 0.75 litre Bordeaux wine bottles.

Storage recommendations

Wine type Temperature °C	Temperature °F
Red wine 15 - 18 °C	58 - 65 °F
White wine 9 - 14 °C	48 - 57 °F
Sparkling wine/champagne	5 - 8 °C 39 - 47 °F

• The most important thing when storing wine is that the storage temperature remains continuously stable.
• Vibrations, temperature fluctuations, light exposure and humidity are factors that can cause wine to tip. Proper storage not only preserves the quality of the wine, but also improves its aroma, flavour and complexity as it matures.
• Wine that is stored at a higher temperature matures faster. Wines that are stored at more than 18 °C lose flavour and aroma.
• If wine is stored at too low a temperature, this can lead to the development of harmful residues. A humidity of 60% - 70% is ideal to prevent corks from shrinking.
• After a wine bottle has been opened, the wine comes into contact with air. It is therefore recommended to store the remaining wine upright in the bottle to minimise the surface area that comes into contact with air.
• Once a wine bottle has been opened, white wines can still be drunk for 2 days and red wines for 3 days, as long as the bottle has been sealed. Make sure that the wine bottle has been closed tightly again.
• Special stoppers that keep wine and champagne fresh are available for purchase in most wine shops.
• Provided that white wine is stored correctly, it can be kept for up to 2 years. Full-bodied red wines can be stored for up to 10 years and dessert wines for up to 20 years.

• Switch off the appliance first and disconnect the power cord from the mains socket.
• Remove all the contents.
• Wipe the inside with a damp cloth dipped in lukewarm water with a little washing-up liquid.
• Make sure the rubber seal on the door is clean so that the appliance remains efficient.
• The exterior of the wine refrigerator should be cleaned with a mild detergent.
• Dry the inside and outside with a soft cloth.
• Dust and anything else that clogs the exhaust vents will reduce the cooling capacity of the appliance. If necessary, vacuum the exhaust air opening.

Decommissioning in the event of absence

• First switch off the appliance. Then disconnect the power cord from the power outlet.
• Remove all the contents.
• Clean the appliance.
• Leave the lid on slightly to prevent condensation, mould or odours from forming.

Installation at another location

• First switch off the appliance. Unplug the power cord.
• Remove all the contents.
• Secure all loose items with tape.
• Tape up the doors.

Energy saving recommendations

The wine refrigerator should be placed in the coolest place in the room, away from appliances that generate heat, heating pipes and direct sunlight. Make sure that the door is properly closed when the wine refrigerator is switched on.

Charcoal filtration system

Your wine is a living object that breathes through the cork of its bottle. In order to preserve the quality and taste of your fine wines, they must be stored at the ideal temperature and ambient conditions. Your cellar is equipped with an active charcoal filtration system to ensure air purity, cooling efficiency, and to maintain an odor free cabinet for the storage of your fine wines. The filter assembly is located at the rear panel inside your cellar.

Keep in mind, that this filter must be changed every 12 months.

1. Remove the bottles of wine stored on the two (2) shelves in front of the filter.
2. Remove the shelves and set aside to be replaced once you have changed the filter
3. Hold the filter and turn it at 45 degrees in the counter-clockwise direction and then pull it out.
4. Remove the existing filter and replace with a new one.
5. Put the new filter into the hole and then turn the filter at 45 degrees in clockwise direction.
