temperature and stabilizing it.
CAUTION: when winter system is operating, multi-temperature mode (fan off) is no longer
possible. The wine cellar maintains the set temperature and switches automatically to mono-
temperature mode to preserve the wines.
The ventilation system: charcoal filter
Pure air continually changed and filtered!
Your Climadiff wine cellar is equipped with a continuous fresh air system, filtered
by a charcoal filter. This is a 5 cm diameter black plastic washer in the top left of
the cellar at the back. It should be replaced annually and can be bought from the
accessories section of our web site at www.climadiff.com.
To remove it, turn the charcoal filter to set free pins and pull it directly from the inside of the cellar
towards you.
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.
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.
