5. EQUIPMENT
The climate control system
According to advice from specialists, the ideal temperature for storing wine is around 12°C, within a
bracket of 10 to 14°C. Do not confuse this with service temperature, which varies between 5 and 20°C,
depending on the specific nature of the wine.
It is especially important to avoid sudden changes in temperature. Designed by specialists for oenophiles,
this appliance, unlike a simple refrigerator, takes into account the sensitivity of grand cru wines to sudden
variations in temperature by ensuring the close control of a constant average temperature.
The anti-vibration system
The refrigeration compressor is equipped with special dampers (silent-blocks) and the inner space is
insulated from the body by a thick layer of polyurethane foam. These characteristics prevent the
transmission of vibration to your wines.
The humidification system
This appliance is fitted with a tray (according to the model) that maintains the correct level of humidity. If
the humidity is too low, top up the level in the reservoir to three quarters of its capacity. Check the level
from time to time and add water if necessary. Ensure that the tray always contains water.
Designed by specialists for oenophiles, Avintage brand has taken into account the sensitivity of corks to
too low a level of ambient humidity. This is why the tray should be placed on the shelf below the fan
situated in the bottom, to provide minimum humidity. Be sure to check the water level, if you are storing
wines over a long period and you are not using the appliance solely for bringing wines to service
temperature (with a quick rotation of bottles).
Make sure that the tray full of water is completely stable to avoid any water falls or leaks.
The anti-UV system
Light accelerates the ageing of wine. In our solid door cellars, your wines are naturally protected, on
condition, of course, that the door is not opened too often. This glass-door model has been specially
treated and filters out harmful ultraviolet rays, thus ensuring your wines are perfectly shielded.
Defrosting
Your appliance is equipped with an automatic defrost cycle. When a cooling cycle finishes, the
appliance's refrigerated surfaces are defrosted automatically. The defrost water is channeled into a
condensates evaporation tray which is located in the back of the appliance near the compressor. The
heat produced by the compressor then evaporates the condensates collected in the tray.
