Noises during operation
The wine cellar is cooled by means of a
compression system. In order to maintain the
preset temperature inside the wine cellar, the
compressor comes into operation in response to
the level of cooling required, and may operate
continuously if necessary. When the compressor
starts up a humming sound will be heard,
tending to drop in volume after a few minutes.
Another normal wine cellar operating noise is a
gurgling due to the refrigerant flowing through
the pipes in the circuit. This noise is normal and
does not indicate an appliance malfunction.
Turning the appliance off
Whenever the appliance is to remain unused for
long periods, it should be switched off.
1. Press and hold the ON/OFF key on the
control panel for a few seconds until the
appliance turns off.
2. Unplug the appliance from the wall socket.
3. Empty the wine cellar.
4. Dry any residual moisture which has
accumulated with a soft cloth.
Leave the door ajar to prevent the humidity and
trapped air from creating unpleasant smells.
Alarms
Each alarm consists of a message flashing on
the display, and an audible warning.
The display continues to flash until the alarm
condition finishes.
• To deactivate the alarm press any key or the
key (if available).
Temperature alarm
The temperature on the display may start to
flash. This means that the temperature inside the
wine cellar compartment is too high or too low
in relation to that set.
This may occur:
• when the appliance is first turned on;
• if a temperature much higher or much lower
than the previous one is set;
• if the wine cellar is loaded with many bottles
at ambient temperature;
• in the event of an extended interruption in
mains voltage.
These conditions may occur during normal
operations of the appliance and are not caused
by problems/faults.
In this case, deactivate the alarm through any
key on the control panel (or, on some models
only, through the key ) and wait for the
temperature to return within the normal storage
values. It may be necessary to repeat this
Do not place bottles horizontally on the
base of the wine cellar. They could fall
when the door is opened.
To maintain optimum air quality inside
the wine cellar, the activated charcoal
filter must be replaced at least once a
year.
Replacement filters can be ordered
from Authorised Service Centres.

The alarms help protect the wine from
temperatures which could compromise
its quality.
