Your appliance must be instal-
led in compliance with the
instructions given in this "
Guide
for Installation and Use
" in order
to keep your wine in optimum
conditions and with optimal energy
consumption.
- The appliance should be installed in
a room that is both dry and aired.
- Avoid balconies, verandas, and
patios: the excessive heat in summer
and the cold in winter could prevent
your appliance from functioning pro-
perly, or even damage it.
- Avoid placing your appliance near a
heat source such as an oven or
radiator.
- Your appliance has been designed
for optimum functioning at a certain
ambient temperature; it is designed
for a particular "climate class". This
climate class is clearly indicated on
the identification plate
situated on the inside of your applian-
ce, low down on the left wall. Outside
of this temperature range, the perfor-
mance of your appliance may be
diminished.
Climate class Ambient temperature
SN/ST
+10°C to + 38°C
- Leave a minimum distance of 3 to
5 cm at the sides between your wine
cellar and your furniture, and 10 cm
above, to maximise air circulation
around the appliance.
Position the appliance at a suitable
distance from the wall by using the
spacers provided in the accessories
packet. You should mount the
spacers on the back of the appliance.
Once your appliance is installed,
adjust its feet so that it is slightly
leaning forwards, or slightly leaning
backwards:
This will facilitate the efficiency of
door closing.
Before putting any bottles in,
clean the inside and the outside of
your appliance with a bicarbonate
of soda solution (1 dessertspoon
of bicarbonate to 4 litres of water).
Do not use alcohol, scouring pow-
der or detergents, which could
damage the surfaces. See section
on "
Cleaning your Appliance
".
