o To prevent damaging the door gasket, make sure the door is fully open when pulling the shelves
out of the rail compartment.
o For easy access to the bottles stored, pull the shelves out approximately 1/3 of the way.
Using your wine cabinet
Before switching on
o Make sure that it has been installed by a suitably qualified person, as per the information
contained in HKoenig’s installation instructions.
o After delivery, wait for eight hours before connecting the appliance to your mains supply. This
will allow any refrigerant gasses that may have been disturbed during the transportation
process to settle.
o The outside of the appliance and the removable accessories contained within it, should be
cleaned with a solution of liquid detergent and water.
o The interior of the appliance should be cleaned with a solution of sodium bicarbonate dissolved
in lukewarm water. The interior and accessories should be thoroughly dried, after the cleaning
process has been completed.
o There can be an odour when you first switch on the appliance. It will lessen as the appliance
starts to cool.
During first use
IMPORTANT: When you use the wine cabinet for the first time or restart the appliance after it
has been turned off for a long time, there could be a few degrees variance between the
temperature you select and the one indicated on the LED display. This is normal and it is due
to the length of activation time. Once the wine cabinet has been running for a few hours
everything will be back to normal.
o When you first switch on the appliance, the compressor will run continuously until the wine
cabinet reaches a cool enough temperature.

8
o During this period of time, you should try not to open the door frequently or place bottles inside
of the appliance.
o If the unit is switched off or unplugged, you must allow at least 5 minutes before restarting the
appliance or reconnecting it to your mains supply.
Switching on the appliance and setting the temperature
o To switch the appliance on, press the ON / OFF control button (1) for 5 seconds.
o The temperature setting for the appliance is adjustable within the range of 5°C - 22°C / 40°F /
72°F.
o When you press the temperature plus (4) or minus (5) button for the first time, the LED display
will show the factory default temperature setting of 12°C / 54°F.
o Use the temperature plus (4) and minus (5) buttons to set the desired internal temperature.
o The temperature will increase by 1°C or 1°F if you touch the plus button (4) once and will
decrease by the same amount if you press the minus button (5) once.
o When you set a new temperature, the display will show the previous temperature for 5 seconds,
before showing the actual temperature. During this time, the cabinet temperature will adjust
accordingly.
o To view the set temperature in the wine cabinet, press the plus (4) or minus (5) button. The
display will flash the temperature for 5 seconds.
o Cool air falls and warmer air rises, so there will be a slight temperature variation between the
top of the cabinet and the bottom of the cabinet.
IMPORTANT: When the temperature is changed, the compressor works harder to reach the
required temperature. During this time, the side panels of the wine cabinet can reach up to
45°C however they will cool down when the set temperature is reached.
Changing between Fahrenheit and Celsius
o You can select whether the temperature display shows Celsius or Fahrenheit.
o To alter what the temperature display is showing, press the plus button (4) for 5 seconds.
o You cannot change the display if you are in the process of adjusting the temperature of the
wine cabinet.

9
Loading the wine cabinet
o IMPORTANT: Your appliance is ideally suited to store 0.75 litre Bordeaux style wine bottles. While
the cabinet can store larger 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.
o You can place 7 standard size bottles in your appliance with 1 bottle on each shelf.
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.

10
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.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
WARNING: PLEASE ENSURE THAT YOUR APPLIANCE IS
DISCONNECTED FROM YOUR MAINS SUPPLY BEFORE
ATTEMPTING TO CLEAN IT.
• Do not clean the appliance by pouring water onto it or
spraying water over it.
• The interior of the wine cabinet should be cleaned
periodically, using a solution of bicarbonate of soda and
lukewarm water.
• Clean the accessories separately with soap and water. Do
not clean them in a dishwasher.
• Do not use abrasive products, detergents or soaps.
• After washing the appliance, wipe over the area that you
have cleaned with a damp cloth and then dry it thoroughly.
• When cleaning is complete, dry your hands and then
reconnect the plug to your mains supply.
Defrosting
o Defrosting occurs automatically inside of the wine cabinet 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 cabinet, 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
cabinet.

11
Removing the shelves for cleaning
o To remove any of the shelves from the rail compartment, move the shelf to the position where the
notch of the wooden shelf is directly under the plastic post and lift the wooden shelf. Please ensure
these are replaced when the shelf is put back.
o Make sure the shelves are fully engaged before loading any bottles into the cabinet. Pull the shelves
out all the way to the STOP position and push them back in several times to make sure the shelves
are properly engaged.
Moving your wine cabinet
If you need to move your wine cabinet to another location you should follow the steps outlined below.
o Remove all items from the wine cabinet.
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 that 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 Most power failures are corrected within a few hours and should not affect the temperature of
your appliance if you minimise the number of times the door is opened.
o If the power is going to be off for a longer period of time, you need to take the proper steps to
protect the contents.
IMPORTANT: If the appliance is unplugged, the power is lost or turned off you must wait 3 to 5
minutes before restarting the wine cabinet. If you attempt to restart before this time delay, the
wine cabinet will not turn on.

12
Vacation time
Short holidays: Leave the wine cabinet in operation for holidays of less than 3 weeks.
Long absences: If the appliance will not be used for several months, remove all items, turn off the
appliance and unplug the electricity cable. Clean and dry the interior thoroughly. To prevent odour
and mould growth, leave the door open slightly by blocking it open if necessary.
Installation
IMPORTANT: Before installation and usage read all the instructions and make sure that the
voltage (V) and the frequency (Hz) indicated on the rating plate are exactly the same as the
voltage and frequency in your home. The rating plate can be found on the front edge of the
inside of the wine cabinet.
The manufacturer declines all responsibility in the event of the installer failing to observe all the
accident prevention regulations in force, which are necessary for normal use and the regular operation
of the electric system.
Positioning
o It is advisable that your appliance is only installed in a location where the ambient temperature of
the room, corresponds with the climate classification that is stated on the rating plate of your
appliance. Your appliance may not function correctly if the ambient temperature falls outside of
the following ranges.

o Positioning the appliance requires two people in order to avoid injuries or damage to the appliance.
o Your appliance should not be located in direct sunlight or exposed to continuous heat or extremes
of temperature (e.g. next to a radiator or boiler). If this is not feasible, then you should install an
insulation plate between the appliance and the adjacent heat source.
o You should check whether there is an electrical socket available, which will be accessible after
your appliance is installed.
o Place the appliance flatly and firmly on a solid base. The appliance is fitted with adjustable feet on
the front side, which should be used to level the appliance.
o Be sure to leave enough space for the opening of the door, to avoid damage to the appliance or
personal injury.
IMPORTANT: The vent at the base of the appliance is for ventilation. Nothing should be placed
in front of this vent; otherwise your wine cabinet may not operate properly.
Built-in installation

13
o Your wine cabinet can be used as a freestanding or a built in unit. The clearances shown in the
above drawing should be followed for both types of installation.
o In particular the depth dimension must be observed.
o IMPORTANT: The vent at the base of the appliance is for ventilation. Nothing should be
placed in front of this vent; otherwise your wine cabinet may not operate properly.
o A decorative plinth can be fitted to the front of the base vent as long as the cut out shown in the
diagram below is made in the plinth. This cut out is required whether the vent is removed or not.

14
Installing the handle
o Remove the door gasket on the side you wish to install the handle. You can see two designated
holes for handle installation.
o Install the handle tightly as shown in the diagram above with the two screws, lock washers and
flat washers provided.
