IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT STORING YOUR WINE
Your Marathon wine and/or beverage cooler has been "engineered to perform" and provide the perfect conditions
for storing and/or serving your wine.
Fine wines require long and gentle development and need specific conditions in which to reach their full
potential.
Ideally, for long term storage, we suggest keeping your wine cooler at a constant temperature between 12ºC
and 14ºC.
Please note that not all wines will improve over the years, and some must be consumed within the first few years
of bottling, while other fine wines are capable of ageing over 50 years. For questions regarding the maturity of
your wines, we suggest you consult your local wine retailer for information on the wine of your choice.
For convenience and performance, your Marathon wine and/or beverage cooler is designed with an "Auto De-
frost" fan forced air cooling system. There is no need to ever defrost your wine /beverage cooler.
One of the benefits of the Marathon Auto Defrost system is that during "Off-cycle" of the cooling system, the
refrigerated surface of the wine and/or beverage cooler defrost automatically and out of sight. The Defrost
water is collected and drains automatically into a container located at the back of the wine cellar next to the
compressor. The heat from the compressor then evaporates the defrost water and circulates humidity back into the
wine cooler to create the perfect humidity level required by the natural corks to maintain a long lasting seal.
All wine and/or beverage coolers are equipped with a double glazed glass door that has a third internal
acrylic layer to minimize condensation on the glass door. However, depending on the room temperature and
humidity vs. the wine cooler - when the door is opened, and closed, condensation or fogging on the glass
may appear, but once the temperature is stabilizes again in the wine and/or beverage cooler, the condensa-
tion/fogging on the glass will gradually disappear. This is normal.
