Quickstart Guide

Before turning your cabinet on
SPACER
Install spacer at the back of the cabinet.
LEVEL
Level your wine cabinet before loading. Un-levelled cabinets
can be noisy, and doors may not close or seal properly.
FILL
Fill the cabinet with bottles before you turn it on. If you don’t
have enough bottles, spread them evenly throughout the cabinet.
TEMPERATURE
Check desired temperature setting (43°F-46°F or 6°C-8°C for serving white, 54°
F-57°F or 12°C-14°C for all cellaring, and 61°F-64°F or 16°C-18C° for serving red).

Installation and ventilation
WARNING: You MUST
refer to model-specic
ventilation requirements
listed in the user
manual or on the Vintec
website when installing
your cabinet.
See user manual for
model-specic dimensions

FREQUENT FAN CYCLE
This ensures slow and even distribution of cool air
throughout the cabinet, limiting temperature variations.
SPACER/STOPPER
Ensures adequate ventilation behind unit.
WATER ON THE DOOR OR FLOOR
In hot/humid climates and particularly on hot days, humidity
in the ambient air can condense on the cabinet’s cold glass door.
ICE FORMING
If the door seal is compromised or left slightly ajar the compressor
will keep running which may cause ice formation on the back wall.
