15. Storing your wine cooler
If you will not be using your appliance for short periods, leave the control panel with its usual
GB
settings.
During an extended shutdown:
• Remove all bottles from the appliance.
• Unplug the appliance.
• Thoroughly clean the inside and outside of the appliance.
• Leave the door open to prevent condensation, unpleasant odours and mould.
16. Power cut
Most power cuts are resolved within a short time. A power cut of 1 or 2 hours will not affect the
temperature in your cooler. To protect your wines during a power cut, avoid opening the door.
During very long power cuts, take the necessary measures to protect your wine.
• If the appliance is disconnected or if there is a power cut, you must wait for three to five minutes
before restarting it. If you try to restart earlier, the compressor will not work as it only oper-
ates again after 3 to 5 minutes (if the temperature requires it).
• When switching the appliance on for the first time or following a prolonged shutdown, it is
possible that, when restarting, the selected and the displayed temperatures are not the same.
This is normal. It will take a few hours before they stabilise.
17. If you need to move your wine cooler
• First, disconnect your appliance.
• Remove all bottles and secure any loose parts.
• To avoid damaging the levelling screws on the feet, screw them tightly into the base.
• Move the appliance in an upright position (preferably) or note the direction in which the ap-
pliance may be laid down by looking at its packaging.
18. In the event of a breakdown
Despite the fact that we take a lot of care during production, a breakdown can never be totally
ruled out. Before contacting your retailer's after-sales department, please check that:
