bottom. The controls will maintain the set
temperature at the bottom of the cabinet,
and any deviation from the setting will
therefore occur at the top.
The difference will vary from 0 to 3°C, de-
pending on the ambient temperature.
Announced capacity
The advertised capacity is measured
according to the EN62552 standard. This
standard is calculated with 75cl traditional
Bordeaux type bottles. Any other type of
bottle format as well as the addition of
shelves will considerably reduce the
storage capacity. The maximum capacity
is calculated with a defined number of
shelves which vary according to the
models.
The set temperature of the upper zone
must be lower than that of the lower

Defrosting, cleaning
and maintenance
Automatic defrosting.
The wine cooler is defrosted automatically.
Defrost water runs through a pipe and is
collected in a tray above the compressor
where the heat generated by the compres-
sor causes it to evaporate. The defrost
water tray should be cleaned at intervals.
Cleaning.
Before cleaning the appliance, unplug it
from the main supply. The cabinet is best
cleaned using warm water (max. 65°C) with
a little mild detergent. Never use cleaning
agents that scour. Use a soft cloth. Rinse
with clean water and dry thoroughly. The
defrost water channel, in which condensa-
tion from the evaporator runs, is located
at the bottom of the rear inside wall of the
cabinet and must be kept clean. Add a few
drops of disinfectant, e.g. Rodalon, to the
defrost water drain a couple of times a year,
and clean the drain using a pipe cleaner or
similar. Never use sharp or pointed imple-
ments.
The sealing strip around the door must be
cleaned regularly to prevent discolouration
and prolong service life. Use clean water.
After cleaning the sealing strip, check that it
continues to provide a tight seal.
Dust collecting on the condenser on the
rear of the cabinet, the compressor and
in the compressor compartment is best
removed using a vacuum cleaner.
