Operations
Bottle ageing compartment
The ageing compartment's main function is that of guaranteeing
that your wines are preserved in optimal conditions.
The wine cellar's temperature was factory pre-set at 15° C, a
temperature that is considered optimal for most wines.
Wine has a complex nature and it derives from a long and slow
process. In order to best express its attributes, very specific
conditions are necessary.
All wines are preserved at the same temperature, but,
depending on their different characteristics, wines are served
and tasted at very different temperatures.
Therefore, just as for manufacturers' wine cellars, for your new
appliance, the absolute temperature value is not important for
preserving your wine. Rather, the constant temperature
through time is important. Wine preservation is ideal at any
temperature, as long as that temperature does not vary.
Manual temperature control
Should you need to adjust the temperature inside the wine
cellar, follow the instructions below:
•
When you plug in your wine cellar, the display shows the
temperature that has been set.
•
Press the
button (see Control Panel) for one second.
The temperature will begin to blink.
•
Press the
or
buttons until you reach the desired
temperature.
•
Wait 5 seconds for the temperature to stop blinking.
•
Wait until the wine cellar reaches its temperature before you
place the wine bottles inside.
The inside light does not go on (or it goes off temporarily) when
the inside temperature goes over 24° C. This allows you to
reach the pre-set temperature more quickly.
This appliance is intended to be used exclusively for the
storage of wine.
Cleaning and maintenance
Regularly clean the inside and outside of the refrigerator using
only warm water and a neutral detergent.
Subsequent to washing, rinse with clean water and dry
thoroughly using a soft cloth.
Do not use the following: special glass and mirror cleaning
products, liquid, powder, or spray detergents, alcohol,
ammonia or abrasive products.
If you are not using the minibar, we suggest cleaning it well
inside and leaving the door ajar to ventilate the interior.
Before maintenance, deactivate the appliance and disconnect
the mains plug from the mains socket.
This appliance contains hydrocarbons in the cooling unit. Only
a qualified person must do the maintenance and the recharging
of the unit.
The appliance is recommended to be used at 18°C for the best
maintaining of red wine, 8°C for white wine or 12°C as an
average temperature for both red and white wine. The
temperature may be adjusted for wine that requires particular
maintaining temperature.
Normal operating sounds
The following sounds are normal during operation:
A faint gurgling and bubbling sound from coils sound when
-
refrigerant is pumped.
A whirring and pulsating sound from the compressor when
-
refrigerant is pumped.
A sudden cracking noise from inside appliance caused by
-
thermic dilatation (a natural and not dangerous physical
phenomenon).
A faint click noise from the temperature regulator when the
-
compressor switches on or off.
Stocking the wine bottles
Standard 24-bottle stock
The 24-bottle stock (for standard, mixed, and renana bottles) is
recommended for wines that need to be visible and easily
removed.
Position each bottle into the slots on the 3 wooden shelves.
6 bottles can be placed on the bottom of the wine cooler.
We suggest placing the longer bottles (Rhine wine type) at the
cellar base. The base is suitable for hosting larger bottles.
Regularly examine the drain of the appliance and if necessary,
clean it. If the drain is blocked, defrosted water collects in the
bottom of the appliance.
The interior of the wine cooler should be cleaned regularly to
avoid odor.
Check the door gasket regularly to make sure there are no
debris.
Please turn off the power before cleaning.
Clean the inside surfaces with a warm water and baking soda
solution. The solution should be about 2 tablespoons of baking
soda to a quart of water.
Rinse and dry thoroughly.
