Weight 52.6 kg
Dimensions H.1044 X L.500 X P.428
Temperature setting Preset to 12°C, adjustable between 4 et 15°C *
Maximum outside temperature 35°C **
Cooling power 1200 W à 15°C **
Electric supply 230/240V-50 Hz + 3 m cable
Electric power 550 W
Heating power 500 W

** The cooling performance is dependant from the outside temperature. Therefore, the set temperature
of 12°C for the cellar cannot be maintained if the outside temperature reaches the 35°C.
If the thermal safety functions to often, there is a risk for the compressor to be damaged. In all cases, it
must be avoid that the outside temperature remains at 35°C, this high temperature should be limited

1. CELLAR EQUIPMENT
The air conditioner has to be installed in the wine cellar on the supplied horizontal supports adapted to the
weight of the unit.
For a correct functioning, the unit expels air at the outside to 15°C above the temperature of the air inlet
aspiration. This air must be cooled in a well ventilated room or be evacuated outside.


 This operation will be done thanks to the insulated ducts in the inside of the cellar
1.1. Evacuation room
If WINEMASTER® evacuates hot air inside the room you have to ventilate the room :
-Maximum temperature and non permanent ≤ 35°C
-Ideal temperature ≈ 20°C.


 It is recommended to evacuate the hot air to the outside with ducts if possible.
-Separate the 2 entries of at least 39
cm
-Do not block the ducts (risk of
overheating)
-Maximum length of the 2 ducts in
totality : 14 m in straight line
-Reduce depending on the number of
elbow : 1 m per elbow
-Radius elbow ≥ 1 5 mm
-Do not reduced the duct size
(180cm² mini)

LE FROID VENTILE OU « NO FROST »
The advantages of « ventilated cold »:
-No frost other than on the evaporator.
-Automatic defrosting and maximized refrigeration efficiency.
-Cold distribution improved by a permanent air circulation (without air stratification).
-The circulation of air allows maintaining the pre-selected temperature throughout the
cellar.
1.2. Cellar insulation
Insulation is essential for efficient functioning of the WINEMASTER®. A good insulation enables
you to maintain a stable temperature and humidity level. The chart on the next page will allow you to
determine the type and thickness of insulation needed in relation to the exterior volume of the cellar and
model of the WINEMASTER®, for an inside temperature of 12°C.
Complete insulation
The insulating elements should be preferably :
-By « tongue and groove » panels or
-By panels fused together
IMPORTANT: Avoid the intrusion of heat and humidity which can alter the functioning of
the WINEMASTER®.

1.2.1. Insulation of walls, ceiling and floor
Type of insulation panels
You can select among the following type of panels :
-Usual panels,
-« Complex panels »: insulation is covered with a with a cover material (plaster, mineral …..)
-« Sandwich panels »: insulation is covered on each side with a wooden panel or plaster board.
Important : The covering of the panels protects the insulation against damage and guarantees its
longevity. Avoid using mineral fibres insulation (glass wool, rock woo, etc…) as they may
accumulate moisture and lose their insulation power and avoid also thin film insulation
that are not
effective for cold.
DO OU KNOW THAT ?
Some insulating materials are damaged by rodents. If necessary, cover the insulation with a protective
lining on the inside of the cellar to avoid presence of mouse or rats.



Polyurethane is an insulator that, due to its chemical composition, is not attacked by
the rodents

USER MANUAL WINE IN50+ Page 8
Floor insulation
The floor of the cellar must be able to support the shelves and the stored wine. Thus, it’s necessary to
choose insulation with adequate compression strength.
Improve the load capacity of the insulation (particularly under the shelve legs) by using :
-« Complex » insulation panels covered by panels of higher load capacity.
-Cover the insulation panel with a wooden panel (at least 15 mm thickness), or any other
appropriate material.
1.2.2. The door
Door improves the insulation. Two solutions are possible :
-Insulate an existing door with the same insulation materials used for the walls of the
cellar. Provide a tight seal between the door frame and all sides of the door with a strip of foam
rubber for example.
-Use a special designed FONDIS isothermal door with polyurethane and a sealing foam rubber.

1.2.3. Insulation of other elements
Avoid placing a wine cabinet or freezer which generates heat in the cellar. The central heating
pipes should be re-isolated during their passage through the cellar.

2. INSTALLATION OF WINE CONDITIONING UNIT WINEMASTER ®
THE UNIT HAS TO BE INSTALLED RESPECTING THE NATIONAL RULES
OF ELECTRIC INTALLATIONS.
Make sure to choose the correct location for the air conditioner:
-Choose the perfect location : length of duct as short as possible,
-No obstacle in front of ventilation (helps flow of cold air moving),
-Level the supports in order to avoid vibrations,

-The condensation drain is done through flexible tube integrated into the air-conditioner.
-The flow is done by gravity and must be connected to an evacuation of waste water or in
a bucket which will have to be emptied regularly.
-THE LEVEL ADJUSTMENT OF THE AIR CONDITIONNER IS VERY IMPORTANT FOR THE
FLOW: THIS ONE CAN BE ADJUSTS BY UNSCREWING THE FEET UNDER THE UNIT.
If the electric cable is damaged, it must be replaced by manufacturer, by
his after sales service or similar qualified person in order to avoid a danger.

The DRAINAGE PIPE SHOULD NOT BE WEDGES OR
MAKE a LOOP Upwards!
The collecting tray is likely to overflow if the pipe
is not directed downwards


 Important :
After transport or maintenance, wait for 24 hours before switching
on the air conditioner.
3. USING THE WINE CONDITIONING UNIT WINEMASTER®
The thermostat indicates the temperature in the wine cellar with a precision of 2°C. A temperature change
of the air doesn’t mean the same change of temperature of the liquid due to the thermal capacity of the
liquid. The temperature is set at 12°C in the factory.
During installation the set temperature must be
controlled and adjusted as shown in next paragraph if necessary.
3.1. Connecting the air conditioner WINE IN50+
When you plug the unit to the electrical socket, the display indicates the temperature of the
cellar :
-If the cellar temperature ≥ to the thermostat setting : the fan starts up immediately
-If the cellar temperature≤ to the thermostat setting : the fan doesn’t start. Only the ventilator
works.
The power outlet must be accessible after installation.

USER MANUAL WINE IN50+ Page 16
3.2. Plugging in the wine conditioning unit WINE IN50+
3.2.1. Temperature setting of the air conditioner WINE IN50+
The setting of the targeted temperature is made on the thermostat :
-Press button one second until the targeted temperature is blinking.
-Use button to increase the temperature or
-Use button to lower the temperature.
-When the right temperature is set, press again on button to confirm it.
Explanation of the main display symbols :
Red light = cold mode engaged (compressor working)
Red light = cooling fan high speed
Red light = defrost
Red light = heat mode engaged (resistance)
3.3. Stanby mode
- Stanby mode : maintain a 3 seconds pressure on button 1. The compressor
stops and the fan turn at low speed.
-The thermostat indicates « OFF » and also the cellar temperature.
-To come back, maintain again a 3 seconds pressure on button 1.
-The thermostat indicates « ON » during 1 second.

USER MANUAL WINE IN50+ Page 1
3.4. Automatic defrost
The program of the IN50+ thermostat will run an automatic defrost time several times a day. During
this operation, the compressor is stopped, only the fan is functioning at low speed. The condensate
water producing during this period will be evacuated through the tube drain.
