Loading The Wine Cooler
natural_image
Cartoon illustration of a person reading a document with an exclamation mark (no text or symbols present)IMPORTANT: Your appliance is ideally suited to store 0.75 litre Bordeaux style wine bottles. You must make sure that they do not prevent the door from shutting properly.
o Always check that you can close the door without it fouling on a wine bottle, before shutting it.
o When loading several bottles of wine at once, it will take longer for the appliance to cool the individual bottles.
o As many bottles may differ in size and dimensions, the actual number of bottles you are able to store may vary. The maximum storage number is based on standard 0.75 litre Bordeaux style wine bottles.
Storing Your Wines
The chart below indicates the ideal storage temperatures for different types of wine:
| Type of wine | Temperature (Celsius) | Temperature (Fahrenheit) |
| Red wine (*) 15.5 – 18.5°C | 59.9 – 65.3°F | |
| White wine (**) 10 - 15°C | 50 – 59°F | |
| Sparkling wines/ Champagne | 7.2 – 9.5°C | 45 – 49.1°F |
| Rose wine 9.5 – 10.5°C | 49.1 – 50.9°F | |
| Vintage wine | 13°C 55°F |
* Light red wines, such as Beaujolais, Pinot Noir and Cabernet Franc benefit from being served slightly cooler than full-bodied reds.
** Chardonnay is often served too cold. You should chill it at a warmer temperature inside of your Wine Cooler. Or leave it to warm slightly when you remove it from your Wine Cooler.
o Temperature stability is the most important factor when it comes to storing wine.
o Exposure to light, vibrations or fluctuations in temperature and humidity can all cause wine to spoil. When properly stored, wines not only maintain their quality but many will actually improve in aroma, flavour and complexity as they mature.
o Wines kept at a higher temperature will age faster. Wine that is exposed to temperatures that are greater than 21^ C ( 70^ F) will suffer from poorer flavour and aroma.
olf wine is kept at too low a temperature, this can result in the development of harmful deposits. A humidity of 70% is ideal for keeping corks from shrinking.
o After a bottle of wine has been opened, the wine comes into contact with air. So it is best to store the remainder of the bottle upright, to minimize the surface area of the wine that is coming into contact with the air.
Once opened, wine will remain in a drinkable condition for two days for delicate whites or three days for rich reds, as long as the bottle as been resealed. You should make sure that the seal is firm by checking the stopper.
o Special stoppers that keep wine sparkling and Champagne bubbling for one or two days after opening, can be bought at most good wine shops.
o When stored correctly, white wines can keep well for up to two years. Full bodied reds will age well for ten years and dessert wines will age well for up to twenty years.
o When you buy a bottle of wine, you should transfer it to a suitable storage location immediately (if you are not going to store it in your Wine Cooler).
o Cheaper bottles of wine will not age as well as more expensive ones.
To make the most of the bouquet and taste of your wine, never fill more than half a glass at a time. It will also help if the shape of your wine glass is appropriate for your wine. The size and shape of your wine glass's bowl will determine the intensity and complexity of the bouquet. The stem should be long enough to allow you to avoid hand contact with the bowl of the glass and should be tulip-shaped or tapered at the top.
Wine Storage Problems
Corking- a tiny percentage of bottled wine (about 1%) will suffer from this. The cork reacts with the wine and gives it a musty, unpleasant taste. It is the most common wine storage problem and is caused by harmless bacteria growing on the cork. As unfortunate as this is, there is nothing to do but to discard all of the wine in the affected bottle. This is not to be confused with small fragments of cork floating in the wine itself, which will not impair the flavour.
Oxidisation- when wine has been opened and left for longer than a day; it tends to lose its aroma and colour, giving an overall flat taste. The only way to avoid this, it to either drink the wine on the same day it was opened or to use a vacuum device specially designed for removing oxygen from opened wine bottles. If you use such a device, the wine should still be consumed shortly afterwards.
Ullage- this is loss of wine from the bottle by evaporation or leakage. Signs of ullage include wine seeping around the cork, a protruding cork or a
stained label. It can happen if the bottle has been allowed to get too warm. The wine may still be drinkable, if the leakage was recent; however, you should be aware that if the wine cools down again, contraction can cause more air to be sucked into the bottle and result in further deterioration.
Slight effervescence in still wine- this isn't really a problem with the way the wine has been stored, but as a result of incomplete malolactic fermentation before the wine was bottled. A good way to get rid of the effervescence is to let the wine breathe. Alternatively you can use a bottle vacuum device, after about five minutes the effervescence will vanish.
Sediment- this is not normally a problem, however both red and white wines can produce sediment after a number of months in a bottle. The sediment consists of tartrate crystals and is totally harmless. If anything the building of sediment can be considered a good sign because it means that the wine was not subjected to much (if any) filtering, meaning that the flavours and aromas should be preserved better.
A good way to get around sediment (if it is a problem) is to stand the bottle upright, the day before opening, so that the sediment can settle to the bottom of the bottle.
You can also decant your wine; decanting will “open up” the flavour of both young and old wines, but younger wines in particular. To decant, pour the wine slowly and evenly into your decanter.

oDefrosting occurs automatically inside of the Wine Cooler during operation. The defrost water is collected by the evaporating tray and evaporates automatically.
o The evaporating tray and defrost water drain hole should be cleaned periodically. This will prevent water from collecting in the bottom of the Wine Cooler, instead of flowing down the defrost drainage channel and drain hole.
o You can also pour a small amount of water down the drain hole to clean inside of it.
o You should be careful to make sure that wine bottles do not touch the rear wall of the appliance, as this can interrupt the automatic defrosting process and deflect water into the base of your Wine Cooler.
Moving Your Wine Cooler
If you need to move your Wine Cooler to another location you should follow the steps outlined below.
o Remove all items from the Wine Cooler.
o Securely tape down all loose items such as the shelves inside of the appliance.
o Turn the adjustable foot up to the base to avoid damage.
o Tape the door closed.
o Ensure the appliance stays secure in the upright position during transportation. Also protect the outside of the appliance with a blanket or similar item.
Power Failure
o If power is cut to the appliance, for a few hours it will be able to maintain the temperature inside the cabinet. Providing that the number of times that the door is opened is kept to a minimum.
o If the power cut is for longer than a few hours, then you will need to store the contents in an alternate location to prevent them being affected by temperature rise.
IMPORTANT: If the appliance is unplugged, the power is lost or turned off you must wait 5 minutes before restarting the Wine Cooler. If you attempt to restart before this time delay, the compressor could be damaged.
Vacation Time
Short vacations: Leave the Wine Cooler in operation for holidays of less than 3 weeks.
Long vacations:
o If your appliance is not going to be in use for a period of time, you should remove the bottles of wine and switch off the appliance
o The interior should be cleaned with a solution of bicarbonate of soda and lukewarm water.
o The interior should then be thoroughly dried.
o To prevent mould growth, the door should be left slightly ajar.
Disconnecting From Power
o If the unit is unplugged, or there is a power cut, you must wait for 5 minutes before restarting. Attempting to restart the Wine Cooler before 5 minutes has elapsed, may cause it not to function.
