Description of the product features 1) Control panel o The touch control panel is located on the front of the glass door, which means it is easy to set the temperature of the appliance and see what temperature each zone is set to. 2) Two cooling zones o There are two cooling zones inside of your wine cooler; they are separated by a partition. o Each cooling zone has an independent temperature control and temperature display. o The upper cooling zone can hold up to 16 x 0.75 litre bottles.
o The bottom rack in the lower zone consists of two levels; each level can hold up to 6 bottles. 6) The wine cooler shelves o All of the full depth shelves have tabs that lock into both sides of the cabinet of the wine cooler. o Any of the shelves can be removed, to accommodate larger bottles of wine. Removing a shelf o Remove all of the bottles from the shelf that you want to remove. o Lift the shelf upwards and then gently pull the shelf away from the wine cooler.
o The outside of the appliance and the removable accessories contained within it, should be cleaned with a solution of liquid detergent and water. o The interior of the appliance should be cleaned with a solution of sodium bicarbonate dissolved in lukewarm water. The interior and accessories should be thoroughly dried, after the cleaning process has been completed. o There can be an odour when you first switch on the appliance. It will lessen as the appliance starts to cool.
o Each time you press either the or button, the temperature of a particular zone will adjust by one degree. If you press and hold down either the or button, the temperature will adjust by one degree every half a second. o The button will increase the temperature of a zone. The button will decrease the temperature of a zone. o Whilst you are setting the temperature of a zone, the corresponding temperature display will flash.
Locking and unlocking the control panel o If no button on the display panel is pressed for one minute, then all of the buttons will lock automatically, apart from the control panel lock on/off button (10). o The control panel lock neon (5) on the display will light. o If you press any button on the display, the control panel lock neon (5) will flash to remind you that the control panel is locked.
o Exposure to light, vibrations or fluctuations in temperature and humidity can all cause wine to spoil. When properly stored, wines not only maintain their quality but many will actually improve in aroma, flavour and complexity as they mature. o Wines kept at a higher temperature will age faster. Wine that is exposed to temperatures that are greater than 21°C (70°F) will suffer from poorer flavour and aroma. o If wine is kept at too low a temperature, this can result in the development of harmful deposits.
Wine storage problems Corking- a tiny percentage of bottled wine (about 1%) will suffer from this. The cork reacts with the wine and gives it a musty, unpleasant taste. It is the most common wine storage problem and is caused by harmless bacteria growing on the cork. As unfortunate as this is, there is nothing to do but to discard all of the wine in the affected bottle. This is not to be confused with small fragments of cork floating in the wine itself, which will not impair the flavour.
Cleaning and maintenance WARNING: PLEASE ENSURE THAT YOUR APPLIANCE IS DISCONNECTED FROM YOUR MAINS SUPPLY BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO CLEAN IT. o Do not clean the appliance by pouring water onto it or spraying water over it. o The interior of the wine cooler should be cleaned periodically, using a solution of bicarbonate of soda and lukewarm water. o Clean the accessories separately with soap and water. Do not clean them in a dishwasher. o Do not use abrasive products, detergents or soaps.
Defrosting o Defrosting occurs automatically inside of the wine cooler during operation. The defrost water is collected by the evaporating tray and evaporates automatically. o The evaporating tray and defrost water drain hole should be cleaned periodically. This will prevent water from collecting in the bottom of the wine cooler, instead of flowing down the defrost drainage channel and drain hole. o You can also pour a small amount of water down the drain hole to clean inside of it.
o The wiring in the mains lead is coloured as follows: Brown Blue Green and yellow Live Neutral Earth o As the colours of the wires in the appliance’s mains lead may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your spur box, please proceed as follows: The brown wire must be connected to the terminal marked “L” (live), or coloured red. The blue wire must be connected to the terminal marked “N” (neutral), or coloured black.
o Place the appliance flatly and firmly on a solid base. The appliance is fitted with adjustable feet on the front side, which can be used to level the appliance. o If you are placing another cooling appliance next door to this product, then there must be a gap of at least 2cm between the appliances. This will help to prevent condensation from forming. o Be sure to leave enough space for the opening of the door, to avoid damage to the appliance or personal injury.
