Rather than just throwing these
materials away, please ensure that they
are recycled.
Electrical and electronic appliances
often contain materials which, if
handled or disposed of incorrectly,
could be potentially hazardous to
human health and to the environment.
They are, however, essential for the
correct functioning of your appliance.
Please dispose of your old appliance at
your local community waste collection /
recycling centre and not with your
household waste.
Take care not to damage the pipework
at the back of it before or during
transportation to an authorised
collection depot.
In this way, refrigerant in the pipework
and oil in the compressor will be
contained, and will not leak out into the

The correct temperature and humidity
Wine keeps on maturing depending on
the surrounding conditions. The length
of time for which wine can be kept in
good condition will depend on the
temperature as well as on the air
humidity.
Safety features
A thermostat prevents the temperature
in the wine cellar falling below 2°C. If
the external temperature should drop
below this level, a heater element in the
appliance switches on automatically to
keep the temperature inside as
Temperature
constant as possible.
Wine can be stored at a temperature
between 5°C and 18°C. The optimum
temperature is around 10-12°C. Most
white wines can be consumed at this
temperature. It is best to take red wine
out of the wine cellar about two hours
before drinking. Open the wine to allow
it to breathe and to develop its aroma.
After two hours red wine will be at the
correct temperature for drinking.
Setting the temperature
The temperature is set using the two
buttons next to the temperature display.

Fluctuations in temperature put wine
under stress and interrupt the maturing
process. It is therefore very important to
maintain a constant temperature.
When pressing the buttons, the
following information shows in the
display:
An ambient room temperature of
8-43°C will ensure that a constant
temperature is maintained in the
appliance. (This is a wider temperature

Humidity level
It is very important to store wine in an
atmosphere with a high humidity level
(60-70 %) so that the corks remain
moist on the outside. A refrigerator with
its low humidity level is therefore not the
best place to store wine. Low humidity
causes corks to dry out from the

Air filtering with the active charcoal
filter and dynamic cooling
The active charcoal filter and the
dynamic cooling system work together
to ensure a good air flow is maintained
throughout the cabinet and thus
achieve optimum air quality.
The dynamic cooling system draws
fresh air with a humidity level of 60-70%
from outside the appliance, in through
the active charcoal filter and distributes
it evenly around the interior.
Filtering the incoming air through the
active charcoal filter ensures that all the
air entering the appliance is fresh and
free from dust. Because the
temperature is constant and evenly
distributed throughout the unit you have
the reassurance that all your wines are
being kept in the same condition.
Replace the active charcoal filter
with a new one once a year (see
"Cleaning and care"). These are
available from your dealer.
