Announced capacity
The announced capacity is the maximum capacity calculated with a defined number of shelves, which
varies according to the model. This standard is calculated with 75cl bottles of the traditional Bordeaux type.
Any other type of bottle size and the addition of shelves will considerably reduce the storage capacity.
For the reference AVU18TDZA, the maximum capacity has been calculated with 3 shelves.

7. CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Before cleaning your appliance (something that should be done regularly), disconnect it by removing the
plug or by pulling the fuse on the circuit.
Before using your appliance for the first time and regularly after that, we recommend that you clean the
inside and outside (front, side and top) with warm mixed with a gentle cleaning product. Rinse with clean
water and allow drying before reconnecting. Do not use solvents or abrasives.
When the appliance is switched on for the first time, there may be a residual odor. In that case, runt the
appliance empty for a few hours at the coldest possible temperature. The cold will kill any odors.
In case of a power cut
Most power cuts are resolved within a short time. A power cut of 1 or 2 hours will not affect the temperature
in your cabinet. To protect your wines during a power cut, avoid opening the door as much as possible.
During very long power cuts, take the necessary measures to protect your wine.
• If the appliance is disconnected or if there is a power cut, you must wait three to five minutes before re-
starting. If you try to re-start before this time, the compressor will only re-start after 3 to 5 minutes (if the
temperature requires).
• When switching on for the first time or following a prolonged shutdown, it is possible that when re-
starting, the temperatures selected and those displayed are not the same. This is normal. It will take a
few hours before they stabilize.
Vacation time
• Short vacations: leave the wine cooler operating during vacations of less than three weeks.
• Long vacations: if the appliance will not be used for several months, remove all items and turn off the
appliance. Clean and dry the interior thoroughly. To prevent odor and mold growth, leave the door open
slightly: blocking it open if necessary.
