PRACTICAL EVERYDAY TIPS

- If the light inside the appliance remains turned on, keep in mind that the temperature inside the appliance will be higher

- Temperature inside the appliance depends on the amount and type of stored wine bottles

- To ensure user safety and high quality of stored wine, do not install the appliance in damp rooms

- Store wine bottles in designated spaces

- Your wine cooler has a limited capacity. Do not place more bottles in your wine cooler than recommended in specification

- Do not open the wine cooler door if it is not necessary

- Do not cover the shelves with aluminium foil or other material. This blocks the air circulation inside the appliance

- To avoid damage to the door seal, make sure that the door is completely open before pulling out the shelf. The shelves should be inserted as far as possible, otherwise the shelf may deform and damage the door seal.

- Do not extend the loaded shelves beyond the extension limit (about 1/3 of the shelf length)

- This appliance is designed for storing bottles of wine. Do not use it for any other purpose.

• Temperature stability is very important when storing wine.

- Exposing your wine cooler to sunlight, significant temperature fluctuations, high humidity and vibrations may cause the wine to go bad.

- In periods of high humidity, condensed water vapour may appear on the outer surfaces of the glass door. To prevent this, install the appliance in a dry, adequately ventilated room.

- Selected models have an external handle. You need to install it on your own. Do not use electric tools for this purpose (fig. 3*). To do this, pull the door seal slightly to the side and place the screws on the inside of the door. Align the handle with the holes on the outside of the door and tighten the screws with a screwdriver. Reinstall the door seal.

- The maximum capacity of the appliance is given in the product sheet enclosed with the wine cooler. This capacity applies to standard 0.75 litre bottles of Bordeaux.

- Selected models have an Anti-tip kit. Install it according to the enclosed diagram (fig. 6*).

- This refrigeration appliance is intended for use as a built-in appliance.

- To achieve the most effective food preservation for the longest possible time and to avoid wasting any food, position the products as shown in Figure 12. In addition, this figure illustrates the layout of drawers, baskets and shelves, which allows the most efficient use of energy.

- Optimal temperature and storage conditions will extend product shelf life and optimize electricity consumption. Optimal storage temperature range should be stated on the food product packaging.
