to add or remove bottles.

For easier access to the contents of the shelves, slide the shelf out approximately one third of the
way. The shelves are, however, fitted with a stop to prevent the bottles falling out.

To remove or reposition the shelves, move the shelf to the position where the notch of wooden shelf
is exactly under the plastic post and lift the wooden shelf. Please ensure these are replaced when the
shelf is put back.
7. LOADING
The maximum recommended loading quantities for bottles are given as guidelines and are indicative only;
they provide a quick estimate of the size of the appliance (similar to the capacity of a refrigerator
expressed in liters).
They correspond to tests conducted with a standard bottle: the standard "75 cl light Bordeaux" bottle -
standards apply the geographical origin of each bottle shape (Bordeaux, Burgundy, Provence, etc.) and a
type (traditional, heavy, light, flute, etc.), each with its own diameter and height.
In reality and in extreme cases, you could store more bottles by stacking the same type of bottle without
using shelves, but a varied cellar comprises a wide variety of bottles and the practical aspect of everyday
cellar management limits its capacity. You will therefore probably load the appliance a little less than the
recommended maximum.
Types of bottle:
We see here 4 kinds of 75 cl wine bottles: Burgundy and Bordeaux wine bottles of different dimensions.
There are many others of all shapes and sizes. You will note the storage differences depending on bottle
heights, diameters and alternating position method.
For example, if a wine cellar is loaded only with Burgundy wine bottles, there will be approximately 30%
fewer bottles than the initial quantity calculated for Bordeaux bottles.
