BEFORE LOADING & PLUGGING IN THE WINE CELLAR
Important: All models without front venting (air opening) are strictly for free
standing only. (See technical chart)
Recommendations:
The location you have selected for your wine cellar should:
- Be unencumbered and well ventilated;
- Be well away from any heat source and direct sunlight;
- Not be too damp (laundry, pantry, bathroom etc.);
- Have a flat floor;
- Have a standard and reliable electricity supply (standard socket to country standards,
linked to the ground), it is NOT recommended to use a multi-socket or extension lead;
- Have a surge protector fitted to the electrical outlet;
- Away from the microwave oven. Certain microwave ovens do not have wave
interference shield. When placed within 1 meter vicinity of the wine cabinet, they may
affect the operation of the wine cabinet.
Wine cellar should be placed where the ambient temperature is constant (not to hot or
cold). If the temperature is too hot or cold, it will affect the performance of the cellar.
Grounding instructions:
The wine cellar must be grounded in case of power leakage. Grounding reduces the risk of
electrical shock. The wine cellar is equipped with a power cord having an earth wire and
an earthed plug. The wine cellar plug must be plugged into a grounded electrical outlet.
Note: In locations where there is frequent lightning, it is advisable to use surge protectors.
Improper use of the earthed plug can result in the risk of electric shock. Consult a qualified
electrician or service person if the grounding instructions are not completely understood.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a qualified person in order to avoid
electrical hazard.
INSTALLING YOUR WINE CELLAR
Unpack and remove all of the protection and adhesive strips from the packaging around
and inside the wine cellar.

The wine cellar must be positioned such that the plug is accessible. Release the power
cord. Move your wine cellar to its final location. The wine cellar should be installed in a
suitable place where the compressor will not be subject to physical contact.
Leveling your wine cellar: Wine cellar must be leveled BEFORE loading your wines.
Your wine cellar is equipped with 4 adjustable feet to facilitate easy leveling. We
recommends that you tighten the back feet to the maximum and adjust the front feet to
level the wine cellar.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR BUILT IN WINE CELLARS:
(UNDERBENCH OR IN COLUMN) FRONT VENTING WINE CELLARS ONLY.
1. “Built in” wine cellars are front venting but are not designed to be fully integrated
behind a joinery door.
2. Please follow the installation diagram when installing built-in wine cellars. No less than
the minimum installation dimension, or it will affect the venting of cellar.
3. Built-in wine cellars draw air from right of ventilation frame (VI20 VI35 from the rear)
and expel through left of ventilation frame under the front door.
4. “Built in” wine cellars have a power switch located on the control panel so power point
location is not critical.
5. The wine cellar requires a standard 240 volt/10 amp power point.
6. The power cord is 2.0m in length and is fixed on the right side at the back when looking
from front of cabinet.
7. As with most appliances of today, the wine cellar has sensitive electronic components
which are susceptible to damage through lightning and electricity supply faults. It is
therefore advised to use a power surge protector to avoid problems of this nature.
8. Air vent on door must be provided for built-in wine cellars when a wood door installed.
In Hot climate zone, an air vent or grid, with a minimum ventilation size of 200mm x
40mm MUST be cut out at the rear top of the back partitioning or at the top of either side

of the partitioning, allowing cool fresh air full access to flow into the 30mm gap located at
the rear of the cabinet.
This air vent or grid must not be opened on the same side as other appliances such as
ovens or an area that is sealed and without access to fresh cool air. Failing to comply with
the above specifications will void the WARRANTY.

TURNING ON YOUR WINE CELLAR
Plug in and switch on the cellar by pressing on the power button for a few seconds.
When you use the wine cellar for the first time (or restart the wine cellar after having it
shut off for a long time), there will be a few degrees variance between the temperature you
have selected and the one indicated on the LED readout. This is normal and it is due to
the length of the activation time. Once the wine cellar is running for a few hours
everything will stabilize.
Important: If the unit is unplugged, power is lost, or turned off, wait 3 to 5 minutes
before restarting the unit. The wine cellar will not start if you attempt to restart before
this time delay.
Operating Noises
To reach the desired temperature settings, our wine cellars, like all wine cellars operating
with compressors and fans, may produce the following types of noises. These noises are
normal and may occur as follows:
- Gurgling sound - caused by the refrigerant flowing through the appliance’s coils.

- Cracking/popping sounds - resulting from the contraction and expansion of the
refrigerant gas to produce cold.
- Fan operating sound - to circulate the air within the wine cellar.
An individual’s perception of noise is directly linked to the environment in which the wine
cellar is located, as well the specific type of models. Our wine cellars are in line with
international standards for such appliance. We will always do its utmost to satisfy its
customers but will not retake possession of the goods due to complaints based on normal
operating noise occurrences.
LOADING YOUR WINE CELLAR
You may load your wine bottles in single or double rows while taking note of the
following: if you do not have enough bottles to fill your wine cellar, it is better to
distribute the load throughout the wine cellar so as to avoid “all on top” or “all below”
type loads.
- Do remove or relocate adjustable wooden shelves to accommodate larger type of bottles
or increase the capacity of the cellar by stacking the bottles up when necessary. (See
removing shelves)
- Keep small gap between the walls and the bottles to allow air circulation. Like an
underground cellar air circulation is important to prevent mould and for a better
homogeneous temperature within the cellar.
-Do not over load your wine cellar to facilitate air circulation.
- Do not stack more than 1.5 rows of standard 0.75L bottles per shelves to facilitate air
circulation
-Avoid obstructing the internal fans (located inside on the back panel of the wine cellar).
- Do not slide the shelves outwards beyond the fixed position to prevent the bottles from
falling.
- Do not pull out more than one loaded shelf at a time as this may cause the wine cellar to
tilt forward.
- Do not cover the wooden shelves with alloy foil or other materials, as it will obstruct air
circulation.
- Do not move your wine cellar while it is loaded with wines. This might distort the body
of the wine cellar and cause back injury.

TYPES OF REGULATION
Please note that depending on the loading and settings chosen it takes about 24 hours for
the wine cellar to see the temperature stabilizing.
During this time LED seems to move erratically in particular, it is normal and this process
occurs whenever the setting is modified and/or whenever a large amount of bottles are
added to the cellar.
Designed to store and mature all wines: red, white and sparkling. These wine cellars
reproduce the ideal conditions for wine storage, at a constant recommended temperature of
12ºC. They can also be set to provide ideal serving temperature for full enjoyment of the
wine’s qualities. Unless stated by the wine maker on the bottle, we recommends 7ºC for
your champagne, 12ºC for whites and 18ºC for reds. (Refer to “Wine Service
Temperature” recommendation chart)
TEMPERATURE SETTINGS
Important: The LED displays by default shows the actual internal air temperature.
In the event of loss of power the unit will return to your preset temperatures when turned
back on.
The electrical board of all models comes with memory function.
It is important to understand that there is a difference between the air temperature inside
the wine cellar and the actual temperature of the wine: You will need to wait
approximately 12 hours before noticing the effects of temperature adjustment due to the
critical mass within a full wine cellar.
Once the temperature is set, it is strongly advised not to toy with it or adjust frequently.
The thermostat will maintain the temperature inside the wine cellar within a +/- 2.5ºC
range. But the thermal inertia of the wine and the glass is such that within this temperature
range, the actual temperature of the wine will only fluctuate 0.5ºC to 1ºC.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT TEMPERATURE
Your wine cellar has been designed to guarantee optimum conditions for storing and/or
serving your wines.
Fine wines require long and gentle developments and need specific conditions in which to
reach their full potential.
All wines mature at the same temperature, which is a constant temperature set between
12ºC to 14ºC. Only the temperature of “degustation” (wine appreciation) varies according
to the type of wines (see “Wine Serving Temperature Chart” above). This being said and
as it is for natural cellars used by wine producers for long period of storage, it is not the
exact temperature that is important, but its consistency. In other words, as long as the
temperature of your wine cellar is constant (between 12ºC to 14ºC) your wines will be
stored in perfect conditions.
Not all wines will improve over the years. Some should be consumed at an early stage (2
to 3 years) while others have tremendous ageing capability (50 and over). All wines have a
peak in maturity. Do check with your wine merchant to get the relevant information.

DEFROSTING/CONDENSATION/ HYGROMETRY/ VENTILATION
Your wine cellar is designed with “Auto-cycle” defrost system. During “Off-cycle” the
refrigerated surfaces of the wine cellar defrost automatically. Defrost water from the wine
cellar storage compartment drains automatically and part of it goes into a drainage
container, which is located at the back of the wine cellar next to the compressor. The heat
is transferred from the compressor and evaporates any condensation that has collected in
the pan. Part of the remaining water is collected within the wine cellar for humidity
purposes.
This system enables the creation of the correct humidity level inside your wine cellar
required by the natural cork to maintain a long lasting seal.
Notes: The water collected by condensation, is therefore recycled. Under extremely dry
environmental conditions, you may have to add some water into the water container
provided with your wine cellar.
All units are equipped with a double glazed glass door that has a third internal acrylic
layer to minimize condensation on the glass door.
The wine cellar is not totally sealed; fresh air admission is permitted through the
drainpipe. Air is circulated through the cellar by means of a fan/fans and the hollow
shelves.
Notes: During the refrigerating cycle, heat is given off and disperses through the external
surfaces of the wine cellar. Avoid touching the surfaces during those cycles.
ADJUSTABLE WOODEN SHELVES
Adjusting & removing the shelves
For easy access to the storage content, you must pull the shelves approximately 1/3 of its
depth out of the rail compartment. These wine cabinets, however, are designed with a
notch on each side of the shelf tracks to prevent bottles from falling.
When removing any of these shelves out of the rail compartment, tilt the shelf as per the
diagram and simply pull out, or push in the shelf until it sits on the support brackets
securely.

appliance to it. Check fuse, if any. Make sure that the door is closed properly.
If your wine cellar appears to be malfunctioning, unplug it and contact your after sales
service. Any intervention on the cold circuit should be performed by a refrigeration
technician who should carry out an inspection of the circuit sealing system. Similarly, any
intervention on the electrical circuit should be performed by a qualified electrician.
Notes: Any intervention performed by a non- authorized technician will lead to the
warranty being considered as null and void.
