III INSTALLATION
Recommendations:
The location you have selected for your wine cellar should:
be well ventilated
be away from any source of heat and direct sunlight;
not be frequently wet (e.g. laundry, bathroom);
have a level floor;
have a reliable electricity supply; and
be away from the microwave. Some microwaves do not have a wave jamming shield
so when the wine cellar is placed less than 1m from a microwave, the operation of
the wine cellar can be affected.
The fridge is designed for the N-ST climate class. Protect the device from heat (above 38 ˚C)
and cold (below 16 ˚C), dust, moisture, flooding events and splashes.
The wine cellar must be positioned so that the power socket remains accessible after
installation.
Unwind the power cord but do not plug it into the electricity supply immediately.
Install your wine cellar in its final location before loading it. If the fridge is moved while
loaded, the fridge walls may be permanently deformed.
IMPORTANT: Two people are required to properly and safely install the fridge.

14
A. Location
To ensure adequate ventilation of the fridge, allow a minimum of 15 cm between the wine
cellar and the nearby walls as shown in the illustration below.
B. Unpacking the age of the device and discarding the packaging.
Remove all packaging, as well as protective elements inside the device's compartments,
before turning it on.
The carton and paper packaging are recyclable. Please dispose of paper packaging in
recycling bins.
Materials bearing the symbol are recyclable. Including: Polyethylene; Polystyrene;
and Polypropylene. These materials can be recycled if you dispose of them in collection
containers.
Other packaging items (e.g. fasteners) must be disposed of with household waste.
C. Foot adjustment

15
Your wine cellar is equipped with an adjustable foot to facilitate levelling.
It is recommended to adjust the front feet to level the wine cellar. Correctly levelled feet
will limit noise and vibration of the wine cellar.
Turn the adjustable foot by hand (be careful not to jam your fingers).
- Turn the foot anti-clockwise to raise the level of the
wine cellar
- Turn the foot clockwise to lower the level of the wine
cellar
D. Before loading the fridge
Levelling: The wine cellar must be levelled before loading your wine
Stable floor: Place the fridge on a stable surface where the ground can support the
loaded weight (1 full bottle usually weighs 1.3kg).
E. Ambient temperature
The wine cellar should be placed in a room with temperatures between 16-38˚C. If the
ambient temperature is above or below the climatic class, the performance of the wine
cellar will be impacted. Cold or warm temperatures can cause fluctuating fridge
temperatures, the fridge may not reach the set temperature or may stop working.

16
F. Changing the orientation of the door
The door can be right or left opening. Change the door by following the instructions below.
Making this change requires 2 people.
Instructions for changing the "right-hung" door and reassembling it so it is "left-hung":
1. Unplug the power cord from the socket.
2. Remove the top hinge cover.
3. Unscrew the top hinge and remove it, then
remove the door by gently lifting it.
4. Unwind the front right foot completely until it
comes off. Remove it.
5. Unscrew the lower hinge and remove it.
6. Place the lower hinge on the opposite side after
removing the front foot and attach the hinge with
the screws you have just removed from the right
side.
7. Replace the foot on the left side of the fridge
with the adjustable foot removed from the right
side. Screw the smaller foot onto the right side.
8. Place the door on the lower hinge. Make sure the
glass door is upright and closes easily.

17
9. Place the top hinge on the opposite side.
10. Place the door on the fridge, then loosely screw
the hinge without tightening completely.
11 Once the door is installed, adjust the hinge by
tightening the screws until the door is in the correct
place.
12. Replace the top hinge cover.
Note: The door seal may come out of its place when changing the door. If you notice gaps
between the seal and the fridge frame when the door is closed, pull carefully on the seal to
close these openings. The correct positioning of the seal is important to ensure the fridge is
waterproof.

IV BEFORE USE
Wait 24 hours before starting your wine cellar.
We recommend that you leave your wine cellar upright, clean it with soapy water and leave
it open to eliminate residual odours.
Recommendations:
Place the fridge in a cool place away from sunlight and heat sources.
Certain parameters such as room temperature, door opening time or the number of
bottles stored inside could affect the internal temperature of your wine cellar.We
recommend that you check the internal temperature regularly and adjust it if
necessary.
Do not cover the vents.
Operating noise:
To reach the desired temperature, this wine cellar, like all wine cellars with compressor
cooling systems, can produce certain noises, which are normal operating noises.
Gurgling noise: caused by the refrigerant gas circulating in the refrigeration area of
the unit.
Cracking noise: resulting from the contraction and expansion of the gas to produce
the cold.
The perception of noise by the individual is directly related to the environment in which the
wine cellar is located. Noise in normal operation is not a cause of the warranty's application.

V USING YOUR WINE CELLAR
A. Loading your wine cellar
You can load your wine bottles in single or double rows.
For loading, take note of the following: if you don’t have enough bottles to
completely fill your wine cellar, it’s best to spread the load over the entire height of
the wine cellar to avoid a thermal imbalance at the top or bottom of the fridge.
The balanced distribution of bottles throughout the height of the wine cellar is the
most efficient way to use the energy of the appliance.
The bottle capacity is expressed in bottles of the “ Bordeaux” type. If larger bottles
are stored, or if additional shelves are used, the maximum bottle capacity is reduced.
To accommodate the largest type of bottle or increase the capacity of the cellar by
stacking the bottles when necessary, the shelves must be removed or moved (see
paragraph adjustable shelves).
Keep a gap between the bottom of the fridge and the bottles to allow air to flow. As
in an underground wine cellar, air circulation is important for a homogeneous
temperature inside your wine cellar.
This will also reduce energy consumption.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT THE SERVING TEMPERATURE OF WINE
Your wine cellar has been designed to allow you to set desired serving temperature of your
wine. Each wine varietal is served at a different ideal temperature.
The temperature of the cellar is adjustable from 5-22 ˚C. Unless the wine producer says
recommends a different temperature for your particular wine, champagne should be
served at 7˚C, white wine should be served at 12˚C and red wine should be served at 18˚C
(see “Wine Service Temperature” recommendation table).
Some wines can be served young (2 to 3 years), while others are much better aged (10
years and older). Each wine peaks at a different age. Check the ideal drinking age for your
wine with your wine merchant.
