Wine will continue to mature depending
on the surrounding conditions. The
length of time which wine can be kept
in good condition will therefore depend
not only on the temperature but also on
the air quality.
Temperature
Wine can be stored at a temperature
between 5°C and 18°C (41°F - 64°F).
The optimum temperature is approx.
10-12°C (50°F - 54°F). Most white wines
are palatable at this temperature. It is
best to take red wine out of the
appliance about two hours before
drinking. Open the wine to allow...

Approx. 5 seconds after releasing the
button, thecurrenttemperature inside
the applicable zone will be
automatically shown.
The two temperature zones are cooled
alternately, which means that
(depending on the quantity of wine
being stored) it can take several hours
for the required temperature to be
reached, and for the temperature
display to adjust. If, after this time, the
temperature is still too high or too low,
you will need to adjust it again.
Temperature range
The temperature can be adjusted from...

Humidity level
In a conventional refrigerator, the
humidity levels are too low for storing
wines. High humidity levels (60 - 70 %)
are very important for the storage of
wine, so that the corks remain moist.
Under low humidity, the corks dry out
from the outside and can no longer seal...

Turning off Dynamic Cooling
Because the appliance uses more
energy when this setting is switched on,
it should not be left on all the time.
^To turn off the setting, press the
constant humidity buttonm. The
indicator light will go out.
Air exchange through the activate
charcoal filter
External air passes through the filter
before entering the unit.
The active charcoal filter ensures that
only clean, odor-free air enters the unit,
creating additional protection against
odor contamination.
The filter will...

There is lighting in both the upper and
lower zones of the wine cooler, so that
both zones can be lit up.
Do NOT remove the lamp covers!
Should the covers become
damaged and need to be removed,
exercise caution.There are lasers
in the lighting (laser beam class
1M), which you should avoid looking
at directly!
Switching on the interior lighting
Generally, wine should be stored in
dark conditions. However, the interior
lighting can be switched on to enable
you to see the wine stored in the wine
cooler....

Any vibration or movement of a wine
bottle can interrupt the natural
breathing process of the wine, which
affects the taste.
As much as possible, store bottles of
the same type of wine beside each
other on the same shelf. Removing a
bottle of one type will then leave the
other types undisturbed, and this will
avoid the need to move different bottles
around.
Capacity
Approx. 38 Bordeaux bottles (0.75 l)
can be stored:
– 15 in the upper zone
– 23 in the lower zone

The appliance is equipped with an
alarm system to ensure that the
temperature does not rise or fall
unnoticed and impair the wine.
Temperature alarm
An alarm will sound if the temperature
in one of the zones rises or falls outside
the set temperature range. The
temperature display for the affected
zone(s) will flash while the alarm
sounds.
The set temperature determines which
temperatures will trigger the alarm.
The alarm will sound and the
temperature display will flash:

Over time, condensate and frost can
build up on the back wall of the
appliance. These are automatically
defrosted and removed by the
appliance.
The condensate is drained away
through a channel and drain hole into
an evaporation system at the back of
the appliance.
It is important to ensure that the
condensate channel and drain hole
are never blocked, so that
condensate can flow away
unobstructed.

To reduce the risk of electrical
shock, disconnect the appliance
from the power supply by shutting
off the power main, tripping the
circuit breaker or unplugging the
power cord before maintenance.
Never use cleaning agents
containing abrasive substances
such as sand, soda (sodium
carbonate), acids or chemical
solvents.
Non-abrasive cleaning agents are
also unsuitable as they can cause
matte areas to appear.
Make sure that water cannot get into
the electronic unit or into the
lighting.
Do not let water...
