** 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
to the summer period.

1. CELLAR EQUIPMENT
The air conditioner is build into the wall. For a correct functioning, the unit expels air at the outside to 20°C
approx above the sucked temperature. This air must be cooled in a well ventilated room or evacuated
outside.
1.1. Evacuation room
-The “hot “ side of the WINEMASTER must be inside a room ( exceptionally, an outdoor installation is possible if the
outside part is sheltered and protected from the weather (direct rain, snow, etc... ).
→For an outside installation, it is advisable to use WINE C25SR/WINEC25SRX
-Attention, starting the compressor at a temperature ≤ 0°C will destroy it.
→Never change the set temperature if the compressor is at a temperature of ≤ 0°C (this specification
doesn’t concern the model SR equipped with a heating belt on the compressor).
The air conditioner WINEMASTER®evacuates hot air inside a room that must be well ventilated
-Maximum temperature and non permanent ≤ 35°C
-Ideal temperature ≈20°C
Top view
- A space of at least 10 cm must remain all
around the WINEMASTER (for an easy re-
move of the cover and in order to avoid hot
air recycling).
-The wall where the device is built-in must
not be more than 220 mm thick. Other-
wise, the wall must be cut in a wedge
shape
-Beware of too small space outside the
wine cellar :
→Risk of re-sucking hot air

VENTILATED COLD OR « 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 cel-
lar.
1.2. Cellar insulation
Insulation is essential for efficient functioning of the WINEMASTER®. A good insulation enables to main-
tain 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.

IMPORTANT
The WINEMASTER®warranty is only valid if the insulation is in compliance with the board « Insulation
selection » requirements for the whole cellar (walls, floor, door and ceiling) with perfect continuity of
insulation and an installation in accordance to the user guide.
Insulation selection
1.2.1 Insulation of wall, 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 ac-
cumulate moisture and lose their insulation power and avoid also thin film insulation that are not ef-
fective for cold.
DO YOU KNOW THAT ?
Some insulating materials are damaged by rodents ( mouse, rats...). 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.
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 every other
appropriated material.
1.2.1. 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 specially WINEMASTER isothermal door with polyurethane and a sealing foam rubber.

Avoid placing a wine cabinet or freezer who generates heat in the cellar. Hot water
pipe from central heating going through the cellar have to be insulated too.

- Fill the joint between the wooden frame and the insu-
lation
- Do not put polyurethane foam between the unit and

3. USING THE AIR CONDITIONER WINEMASTER®
The thermostat indicates the temperature in the wine cellar with a precision of 2°C.
A temperature change of the air does not 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 even adjusted as per following process.
3.1 Plugging the air conditioner WINE C25 /
C25S(R)/WINEC25X/WINEC25S(R)X
When you plug it to the electric socket:
-the fan in the cellar starts up immediately ( permanent ventilation « no frost »)
-If the temperature of the cellar is ≥as the thermostat setting, the compressor will run after 2 minute.
-If the temperature of the cellar is ≤as the thermostat setting, the compressor will not run.
The socket has to remain easily reachable after installation.
3.2 Setting the temperature
The setting of the targeted temperature of the cellar 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 .
-Appuyez sur le bouton une seconde jusqu’à ce que la température de
consigne clignote.
-Utilisez le bouton pour augmenter la température de consigne.
-Utilisez le bouton pour diminuer la température de consigne.
-Lorsque le réglage vous convient, appuyez sur le bouton pour valider.

•Do not take care of this light for model C25/WINEC25X
Red light and message « DF » on display = defrost engaged
3.3. Standby mode
-Standby mode : maintain a 3 seconds pressure on button 1. The compres-
sor 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.
3.4. Automatic defrost
The thermostat of models C25/C25S(R)/WINEC25X and WINEC25S(R)X 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 produced during this period will be evacuated through the tube drain.
The display shows « DF » during the defrost time.
4. MAINTENANCE OF THE AIRCONDITIONER WINEMASTER®
4.3. Replacing the filter
→A filter check is recommended every 3 months.
