WINE STORAGE
• The standard shelves are designed
perfectly for Bordeaux style bottle
storage. The maximum bottle loading
may vary subject to the different size or
dimension of wine bottles you store.
• The shelves can be pulled out by
approximately 2/3 for easy access
to the wine storage. There are two
designs for the pull-out shelves:
- The shelves are without telescopic
rails, but with a plastic Stopper on
each sides of the shelf track to prevent
bottles from falling. (MODEL GC166SS)
- The shelves are with Telescopic Rails
which has stoppers by themselves.
(MODEL GC166D/DB/DBT/DWT)
Stopper

WORKING CLIMATE
• The appliance is designed for operating
from SN to T climate (see below climate
class chart). It is recommended to
maintain the ambient around 22-25°C
which helps the appliance working
with low power consumption.
Climate Class Ambient
Temperature
SN = Subnormal 10°C -32°C
(50°F-90°F)
N = Normal 16°C -32°C
(61°F-90°F)
ST =Subtropical 18°C -38°C
(64°F-100°F)
T = Tropical 18°C -43°C
(64°F-109°F)
• If the ambient temperature is above or
below the designed climate range, the
performance of the unit may be affected.
For example, the appliance operating
in extreme cold or hot conditions may
cause interior temperatures to fluctuate,
and the temperature set 5-22°C
may not be reached sometimes.

• To prevent damaging the door gasket,
make sure to have the door opened fully
all the way before pulling the shelves out.
• Please store wine in sealed bottles.
• Do not cover the shelves with aluminum
foil or any other shelf material which
may prevent air circulation.
• Should the wine fridge be left empty
for long periods it is suggested that
the appliance is unplugged, and after
careful cleaning, leave the door ajar
to allow air to circulate inside the
cabinet in order to avoid possible
condensation, mould or odours forming.

after 10 seconds without being touched.
• When the temperature probe is out of
order, the display window will show
with “HH” or “LL” instead of a digital
figure while a continuous buzz sound
will be heard. In case of this happens,
this appliance is designed to keep
the compressor and fan running
periodically which helps to keep the
desired temperature of the inside
cabinet to protect your stored wines.
Warning: To avoid destroying
your stored wines, it is
strongly recommended to have the
appliance repaired immediately,
as the periodical running cannot
ensure the appliance will achieve
the temperature you have set.

CARE & MAINTENANCE
CLEANING THE WINE FRIDGE
• Turn off the power, unplug the appliance,
and remove all items including shelves.
• Wipe the inside surfaces with a sponge
and baking soda solution. The solution
should be about 2 tablespoons of
baking soda to 1 litre of warm water.
• Wash the shelves with a mild
detergent solution. Allow the wooden
shelves to dry before placing them
back into the wine fridge.
• Remove excess water from the sponge
or cloth when cleaning the controls, or
any other electrical display areas.
• Wipe the outside cabinet with warm
water and a mild liquid detergent.
Wipe dry with a clean soft cloth.
• Do not use steel wool or steel brush
on the stainless steel. These will
contaminate the stainless steel with
steel particles and rusting may occur.
POWER FAILURE
Most power failures are corrected within
a few hours and should not affect the
temperature of your appliance if you
minimize the number of times the door is
opened. If the power is going to be off for
a longer period of time, you need to take
the proper steps to protect your contents.
MOVING THE WINE FRIDGE
• Remove all items.
• Securely tape down all loose items
(shelves) inside your appliance.
• Turn the adjustable legs up to
the base to avoid damage.
• Tape the door shut.
• Ensure the appliance stays secure in the
upright position during transportation.
Also protect the outside of appliance
with a blanket, or similar item.
ENERGY SAVING TIPS
• The appliance should be located away
from heat producing appliances,
and away from direct sunlight.
• Ensure that the unit is adequately
ventilated. Never cover the air vents.
• Only open the door when necessary.
Avoid leaving the door open for long periods
or opening/closing the door frequently.

DIFFERENT SHAPES AND SIZES
This brochure makes reference to the
‘standard Bordeaux style bottle’ when
specifying capacity. However, wine
producers use a huge range of different
bottle shapes and sizes. Bottle shape variety
should be considered when selecting the
appropriate Grand Cru cabinet in which
to house your precious collection, since
shelf height and adjustability varies across
the product range. Please also be aware
that some bottles will not fi t opposite
each other on the same shelf and this
may affect capacity. You may need to lay
the bottles opposite more suitably shaped
bottles. Ideally, bottles should lie with
their necks comfortably interlocking.
STACKING FOR AGEING
When fi lling your cabinet, we suggest
stacking the bottles you wish to cellar
and mature at the back of the shelves,
and the wines you wish to consume
in the shortterm at the front.
STACKING FOR ACCESSIBILITY
When stacking bottles, it is practical to
keep bottles from the same case together.
See diagrams below, in which bottles
from the same case are represented by
the same colours. Vertically stacking
same-case bottles enables safe and
easy access to all your different wines.
