Function and operation
Storing the wine refrigerator
Leave the settings as they are if you do not use your wine refrigerator
for some time.
If the refrigerator is not used for some time:
• Remove all the bottles from the wine refrigerator.
• Pull the plug out of the socket.
• Clean the interior and exterior of the appliance thoroughly.
• Leave the door open to prevent condensate, odours and mildew
from developing.
The surrounding temperature must be in the range of +16°C and + 38
°C.
The performance of the wine refrigerator may be impaired if these
surrounding temperatures exceed this temperature range.
Please note
When you use the appliance for the first time or put it into
operation again after not using it for a long time, the selected
temperature and the temperature indicated on the display may
differ. This is completely normal and it is due to the operation
time until the response time is reached. After a few hours of
operation the two temperatures will be the same.
You will need to wait at least three minutes before restarting the
appliance after its has been disconnected from the power supply
or after a short circuit. The appliance will not switch on if you
attempt to restart it before this time has lapsed.

Switching on the appliance
To switch the appliance on or off, press the key
5 seconds.
Interior lighting
To switch the LED interior lighting on and off.
Plus and minus keys
To increase the temperature by 1°C each time a key is pressed.
To decrease the temperature by 1°C each time a key is pressed.
Setting the temperature control
• The unit has two separate temperature zones. The temperature of
both zones can be set between 5ºC and 22ºC (41ºF and 72ºF). The
lower temperature zone is ideal for storing white and red wine at a
setting of 13°C to 22°C (55°F to 72°F). The upper temperature zone is
suitable for storing champagne and white wine at a setting of 5°C to
13°C (41°F to 55°F).
• When the unit is plugged in for the first time, the unit will power up
automatically to the preset defaults. The preset temperature at the
factory for UPPER temperature zone is 10ºC (50ºF) and for LOWER
temperature zone is 16ºC (60ºF).
• You can press the left side plus and minus keys to control the internal
temperature of the UPPER temperature zone and press the right side
plus and minus keys to control the internal temperature of the
LOWER/RIGHT temperature zone. When you press either key at the
first time, the display will show the last temperature set previously.
• IMPORTANT: The temperature set for the LOWER temperature zone
must always be just as high as or higher than that in the UPPER
temperature zone. For optimal performance, the set temperature of
the two zones should differ by at least 4°C (7F°) (For example 8°C
and 12°C).
• The temperature that you desire to set will increase 1ºC or 1ºF if you
press the plus key once, on the contrary the temperature will decrease
1ºC or 1ºF if you press the minus key. The display flashes while you
make the setting.
• After the temperature has been set, the display shows the current
inner temperature of the particular temperature zone.
• To view the set temperature at any time, press the plus or minus key,
the set temperature will temporarily flash in the display for 5 seconds.
Then the display shows the current inner temperature again.
Temperature display
ATTENTION! During normal operation, the temperature display
shows the temperature inside the wine refrigerator.
Alarm of the appliance will sound when:
• A different temperature is being programmed
• The temperature in one of the zones deviates by more than 5°C from
the temperature originally programmed. The display will flash only if
for at least
the temperature rises or falls abnormally.
Interior lighting
The interior lighting can either be
• Switched on briefly:
In this case the light will go on when you open the door and go off
when you close the door. This is the standard mode.
• Switched on permanently:
The light will remain switched on until you press the
EN
key again.
