WINE PRESERVATION

As is known, wine can be stored for long periods of time if this is done under the following
conditions:
• Suitable temperature without appreciable variations over time
• Controlled level of humidity
• Protection from light
• Absence of noise and vibrations
• Absence of odors
• Bottle kept horizontal
All of these conditions are fully met in the Hestan Wine Refrigerator and Wine Cellar.
WINE COMPARTMENTS
Upper wine compartment
Defaults to 54° F [+12° C], and is adjustable from 39° F to 64° F [4° C to 18° C]
Lower wine compartment
Defaults to 50° F [10° C] and is adjustable from 39° F to 64° F [4° C to 18° C]
FRESHSELECT DRAWER (KRW MODELS)
™
Defaults to freezer mode, at 0° F [−18° C] and is adjustable from 9° F to −9° F [−13° C to −23° C]
while in freezer mode.
The freezer compartment can also be used as a lower wine compartment by setting it in Fridge
mode and adjusting the temperature appropriately.
To transform the FreshSelect
and set it as a refrigerator compartment, then adjust it to a temperature between 39° F and
46° F [+4° C to 18° C].
All the temperatures can be modified according to the characteristics of the wines and personal
preferences. However, you should attempt to keep the temperature as constant as possible
over time. Rapid and large-scale temperature variations can in fact cause early aging of the
wine.
You should also avoid very low temperatures (below 34° F [1° C]) which may lead to the
formation of deposits and damage the aesthetic qualities of the wine.
All the compartments offer optimal conditions and take into account all these needs. It
should however be noted that the upper wine compartment, in particular, is thermostatically
controlled in a very precise manner and ensures the utmost care and attention over time of
your most prized bottles. When the upper wine compartment is set below 50° F [+10° C] the
lower wine compartment must not be set above 54° F [+12° C].
