cleaning or maintenance.
LED LIGHT REPLACEMENT INSTRUCTIONS
To provide optimum interior lighting, LED strips illuminate
the appliance from the top and sets of LED lights directly
illuminate different areas.
In case of malfunction and/or wearing out of the lighting
system, repairs should be carried out by a qualified Service
technician.
CLEANING THE INTERIOR SURFACES
To clean the inside of the wine column, open the door and
remove the shelves. Wipe the inside of the unit with a clean
cloth and a mild detergent, or with a soft sponge and a
solution of bicarbonate of soda and lukewarm water. Do not
use abrasive products or detergents. After washing, rinse
and dry thoroughly.
Clean the wooden shelves with a soft, slightly damp cloth.
Avoid using soaps, detergents and/or sponges that can
damage both wooden and steel surfaces. Dry the shelves
carefully before placing them back in the wine column.
WARNING
Do not use vinegar, rubbing alcohol or any
alcohol-based cleaning agent on any of the
interior surfaces.
If the appliance is not going to be used for an extended
period of time, unplug and clean the appliance. The doors
should be left slightly ajar to prevent the formation of
mildew and unpleasant odours.
CLEANING THE EXTERIOR SURFACES
To clean the door and cabinet, use a mild detergent
solution composed of two tablespoons of baking soda per
quart of lukewarm water. Refrain from using abrasive or
corrosive cleaning agents.
Avoid using solvent-based or abrasive cleaners. Use a soft
sponge for cleaning, rinse with clean water, and dry with a
soft towel to prevent water spots.
If the door panel is stainless steel, be aware that exposure
to chlorine gas and moisture may cause discoloration.
Clean the stainless steel with a cloth dampened in a mild
detergent and warm water solution.
Refrain from using abrasive or corrosive cleaning agents.

DEFROSTING
The wine column is designed with an automatic defrost
any
system. However, on colder settings, some frost may build
up. Additionally, the more humid the ambient conditions,
the more frost may build up. Keep the door closed as much
as possible and avoid opening the door unnecessarily to
minimize frost build-up.
If frost is preventing the door from closing properly, you
may need to power the unit off until the frost melts (possibly
up to 24 hours). Use a soft absorbent towel to dry the unit.
WARNING
Do not harm refrigerant tubing.
NOISES AND MEANING
This wine column may emit some normal sounds during
operation.
Hard surfaces such as the floor or walls may make the
sounds seem louder than they actually are.
In the list below you will find the most common sounds and
their causes:
•
rattling: due to the flow of refrigerant or objects placed
on top of the appliance.
•
loud
or
high-pitched
compressor may emit sounds due to normal operation.
•
splashing sound: due to water flowing from the
evaporator to the water container.
•
gurgling sound: refrigerant flowing into the appliance.
•
air noise: air can be heard being pushed over the
condenser by the condenser fan.
POWER FAILURE
Most power failures are resolved within a few hours and
should not affect the temperature of the appliance if the
number of times the door is opened is minimised. If the
power outage continues for a longer period of time,
appropriate measures must be taken to protect the
contents of your appliance.
