OPERATING YOUR WINE CELLAR
It is recommended that you install the wine cellar in a place where the
ambient temperature is between 50-80°F. If the ambient temperature

cause interior temperature to fluctuate. The range of 54-66°F may not
be reached. Not intended for garage or basement installs. The
temperature may fluctuate depending on whether or not the interior
light is on or off or whether the bottles are located on the upper/middle
or lower section. Close the cellar door immediately after putting in any
items so the inside temperature will not rise dramatically.
