INSTALLATION

Recommendations:

The location you have selected for your wine fridge should:

  • be well ventilated
    • be away from any source of heat and direct sunlight;
    • not be frequently wet (e.g. laundry, bathroom);
    • have a level floor;
    • have a reliable electricity supply; and
  • be away from the microwave. Some microwaves do not have a wave jamming shield so when the wine fridge is placed less than 1 m from a microwave, the operation of the wine fridge can be affected.

The device is designed for the N-ST climate class. Protect the device from heat (above 38 °C) and cold (below 16 °C), dust, moisture, flooding events and splashes.

  • The wine fridge must be positioned so that the power socket remains accessible after installation.
  • Unwind the power cord but do not plug it into the electricity supply immediately.
    • Install your wine cellar in its final location before loading it. If the fridge is moved while loaded, the fridge walls may be permanently deformed.

IMPORTANT: Two people are required to properly and safely install the fridge.

• This wine fridge is heavy. Be careful when moving it.
- When transporting the fridge, be careful not to damage any part of the refrigeration system.
- Important! Leave your device vertical for 24 hours before plugging it in for the first time so the refrigerant gas can equalise.
- If your device has been horizontal during transport, wait 48 hours before turning it on.
• After installation, make sure the fridge is not resting on the power cable.

CLEANING

  • Never clean the appliance with flammable products. The fumes could cause a fire or explosion.
  • When it comes to the use, handling, cleaning and disposal of the device, refer to the following chapters of the user guide.

WARNING: Do not use electrical appliances to clean your wine cellar.

A. Location

To ensure adequate ventilation of the fridge, allow a minimum of 15 cm between the wine fridge and the nearby walls as shown in the illustration below.

LeCépage AGK168PV - Location - 1

BEFORE USE

LeCépage AGK168PV - BEFORE USE - 1

Wait 24 hours before starting your wine fridge.

We recommend that you leave your wine fridge upright, clean it with soapy water and leave it open to eliminate residual odors.

Recommendations:

  • Place the fridge in a cool place away from sunlight and heat sources.
  • Certain parameters such as room temperature, door opening time or the number of bottles stored inside could affect the internal temperature of your wine fridge. We recommend that you check the internal temperature regularly and adjust it if necessary.
  • Do not cover the vents.

Operating noise:

To reach the desired temperature, this wine fridge, like all wine fridges with compressor cooling systems, can produce certain noises, which are normal operating noises.

  • Gurgling noise: caused by the refrigerant gas circulating in the refrigeration area of the unit.
  • Cracking noise: resulting from the contraction and expansion of the gas to produce the cold.

The perception of noise by the individual is directly related to the environment in which the wine fridge is located. Noise in normal operation is not a cause of the warranty's application.

USING YOUR WINE FRIDGE

A. Loading your wine fridge

  • You can load your wine bottles in single or double rows.
  • For loading, take note of the following: if you don't have enough bottles to completely fill your wine fridge, it's best to spread the load over the entire height of the wine cellar to avoid a thermal imbalance at the top or bottom of the fridge.
  • The balanced distribution of bottles throughout the height of the wine cellar is the most efficient way to use the energy of the appliance.
  • The bottle capacity is expressed in bottles of the "Bordeaux" type. If larger bottles are stored, or if additional shelves are used, the maximum bottle capacity is reduced.
    • To

accommodate the largest type of bottle or increase the capacity of the cellar by stacking the bottles when necessary, the shelves must be removed or moved (see paragraph adjustable shelves).

- Keep a gap between the bottom of the fridge and the bottles to allow air to flow. As in an underground wine cellar, air circulation is important for a homogeneous temperature inside your wine fridge.

This will also reduce energy consumption.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT THE SERVING TEMPERATURE OF WINE

Your wine fridge has been designed to allow you to set desired serving temperature of your wine. Each wine varietal is served at a different ideal temperature.

The temperature of the cellar is adjustable from 5-20 °C. Unless the wine producer says recommends a different temperature for your particular wine, champagne should be served at 7°C, white wine should be served at 12°C and red wine should be served at 18°C (see "Wine Service Temperature" recommendation table).

Some wines can be served young (2 to 3 years), while others are much better aged (10 years and older). Each wine peaks at a different age. Check the ideal drinking age for your wine with your wine merchant.

SETTING TYPES: Please note that depending on where your wine fridge is kept, how often the door is open, the ambient temperate and the loading, the time taken to reach the set temperate varies. Usually, it takes about 24 hours for the wine fridge to reach the desired temperature and indicate a stable temperature on the digital display. The temperature displayed will change when the desired temperature is adjusted or whenever a large number of bottles are added to the fridge.

B. Loading plan

Your wine fridge can accommodate up to 168 Bordeaux bottles with a stack based on three shelves however the fridge comes with five shelves.

LeCépage AGK168PV - Loading plan - 1

While loading several levels of bottles on the same shelf, please gently store your bottles in the 1st row to prevent them from colliding with the 2nd row. Store the bottles in a "head to tail" - crossing the neck and bottom of each bottle, so you can get close to the stated maximum capacity.

If you store larger bottles or add a shelf to more easily access your bottles, storage capacity will be reduced.

The way you load your fridge and the number of shelves, determines capacity. Below you will find an explanatory diagram for loading (capacity with load "head to tail"):

The indoor fan helps keep the temperature consistent throughout the fridge. The fridge door should not be kept open for long periods of time as it will impact the fridge's ability to remain cool.

This wine fridge is called mono temperature, which means that you have a single choice of temperature.

If storing red, rosé and whites together, set the thermostat on average between 11 and 13 degrees and store the red wines on the top shelves and whites at the bottom. This will make the most of the 'hot air rises' phenomenon. Consider the ambient temperature of your room when setting the thermostat.

For wines stored at the top of the fridge: bottles of red wine. Before serving, uncork and let it decant in a carafe a few hours before tasting (to slowly rise to 16 to 18 degrees).

For wines stored in the middle of the fridge: white wine. Cool before serving according to your preference (8-10 degrees)

For wines stored at the bottom: rosé and champagne. Cool them for about an hour before serving (6-8 degrees).

C. Adjustable shelves

Your wine fridge has 4 adjustable metal shelves and 1 fixed metal shelf, which gives the strength to stack several rows of bottles (the moulding at the bottom of the fridge allows bottles to be stacked underneath the bottom shelf).

The 4 shelves can be adjusted to different spacings depending on your needs.

LeCépage AGK168PV - Adjustable shelves - 1

text_image Adjustable shelves Fixed shelf
  • Door seal protection: Ensure you open the door completely before removing shelves from their rails.
  • Do not slide multiple loaded shelves outwards as it may cause bottles to fall or may cause the wine fridge to tip forward.
  • Do not cover shelves with material like aluminum foil or metal plate as this will impact internal airflow.
  • Do not move your wine fridge while it is loaded with bottles. This could distort the walls of the wine fridge and cause back injuries.

D. Functions and temperature setting

Please note that depending on the selected settings and the loading, it can take 24 hours for the wine fridge to reach the desired temperature.

To bring the wine to the serving temperature, it is recommended to place it in your wine cellar at least 48 hours before serving and uncork or aerate a few minutes before tasting.

F. Power outage

LeCépage AGK168PV - Power outage - 1

In the event of a power outage, all temperature settings will be automatically preserved, unless you go the thermostat setting.

A power outage of an hour or two will not affect the temperature of your wine cellar. To avoid a sudden change in temperature when the power supply is turned off, you should avoid opening the door. In the event of a prolonged cut, storage alternatives must be found to preserve your wine.

LeCépage AGK168PV - Power outage - 2

If you plan to temporarily shut off the electrical power or if there is a power outage scheduled by your provider, it is imperative to disconnect the power socket rather than have your power meter shut down.

A sudden shutdown of the current could damage the mother board in your wine fridge

MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

A. Defrosting

Your wine cellar is designed with a "natural" defrosting system. When the engine is shut down, the refrigerated surfaces of the wine cellar automatically defrost. The de-icing water descends into a drainage container near the compressor at the back of the wine fridge. This water is evaporated by the heat produced by the compressor.

LeCépage AGK168PV - Defrosting - 1

Important: Keep the drain and gutter clean to prevent it to clog and water to flow inside the wine fridge.

B. Cleaning

LeCépage AGK168PV - Cleaning - 1

Before cleaning or restarting, unplug at the socket.

Never use abrasive products or sponges with scrapers for cleaning inside or outside your device.

  • Remove all accessories (e.g. shelves, water tank). Wash them with lukewarm water with a mild, odorless detergent (an unscented dish liquid, for example), rinse with water containing bleach and dry thoroughly.
  • Wash the interior walls in the same way; take special care of the shelves.
  • Wash the door seal without omitting to clean also under the door seal
  • Reconnect the device and get it back into operation.

Occasionally, dust the condenser at the back of the unit; a build-up of dust could reduce the performance of the unit.

At certain times of the year, condensation on the door may occur. If this happens, wipe the water from the door and avoid opening the door of the fridge often as this amplifies the difference between the inside of the fridge and the ambient temperature.

In case of prolonged absence, empty and clean the appliance; keep the door ajar for the duration of non-use.

LeCépage AGK168PV - Cleaning - 2

Important!

When the wine fridge is not used:

• Unplug the appliance
- Remove all objects inside.
- Clean and dry the interior space of the wine fridge per the above instructions.
- Leave the door slightly ajar to avoid mold.

Disposal considerations

The transport and protective packaging has been selected from materials which are environmentally friendly for disposal, and can normally be recycled.

Recycling the packaging reduces the use of raw materials in the manufacturing process and also reduces the amount of waste in landfill sites. Ensure that any plastic wrappings, bags etc. are disposed of safely and kept out of the reach of babies and young children. Danger of suffocation.
