WARNING The information in this document is subject to modification without any prior notice. Some models are available in dedicated countries only. VINTEC offers no guarantee for our wine cellar if it is being used for any purpose other than that for which it was specifically designed. VINTEC cannot be held responsible for any error in this manual.
The room for installing the appliance must be at least 1 cubic metre per 8 grams of refrigerant. The refrigerant quantity contained in this appliance is listed above in grams; it is also noted on the Rating Plate of the appliance. It is hazardous for anyone other than an Authorised Service Person to carry out servicing or repairs to this appliance. – WARNING: Keep ventilation openings in the appliance enclosure or in the built-in structure clear of obstruction.
Notes: - V30 models are for free standing ONLY. - V40 & V26 models are built-in type as per the drawings thereafter. The wine cellar should be placed where the ambient temperature is between 5ºC to 35ºC. If the ambient temperature is above or below this range, the performance of the unit may be affected. Placing your unit in extreme cold or hot conditions may cause interior temperatures to fluctuate. The ideal range of temperature may not be reached.
Fixing the Back spacer: Compressor run appliances require proper ventilation for proper and longer usage. Your Vintec wine cellar is supplied with a back spacer. Affix the back spacer at the back of the cellar for air circulation and heat evacuation. IMPORTANT - THIS SPACER MUST BE ATTACHED TO THE UNIT BEFORE THE INSTALLATION, FOR VENTILATION PURPOSE. FAILURE TO DO SO VOIDS THE WARRANTY INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR BUILT IN WINE CELLARS: (UNDERBENCH OR IN COLUMN) FRONT VENTING WINE CELLARS ONLY.
1. Vintec “Built in” wine cellars are front venting but are not designed to be fully integrated behind a joinery door. 2. Vintec “Built in” wine cellars require 10mm clearance on both sides and top, 30mm clearance at the rear (Back spacer is provided),to facilitate installation, removal, servicing and ventilation. 3. Vintec “Built in” wine cellars draw air from the rear and expels through the metal grid under the door at the front.

V40’s (85mm recess plinth) V40 S3/BK models TURNING ON YOUR WINE CELLAR Plug in and switch on the cellar by pressing on the power button for a few seconds. When you use the wine cellar for the first time (or restart the wine cellar after having it shut off for a long time), there will be a few degrees variance between the temperature you have selected and the one indicated on the LED readout. This is normal and it is due to the length of the activation time.
Operating Noises To reach the desired temperature settings, VINTEC wine cellars, like all wine cellars operating with compressors and fans, may produce the following types of noises. These noises are normal and may occur as follows: - Gurgling sound - caused by the refrigerant flowing through the appliance’s coils. - Cracking/popping sounds - resulting from the contraction and expansion of the refrigerant gas to produce cold. - Fan operating sound - to circulate the air within the wine cellar.
TYPES OF REGULATION Please note that depending on the loading and settings chosen it takes about 24 hours for the wine cellar to see the temperature stabilizing. During this time LED seems to move erratically in particular for 2e models. It is normal and this process occurs whenever the setting is modified and/or whenever a large amount of bottles are added to the cellar.
TEMPERATURE SETTINGS Important: The LCD displays by default the actual internal air temperature. The temperature settings are pre-set at the factory as follows. In the event of a power interruption, all previous temperature settings are automatically erased and it will revert to the preset temperature settings. Factory preset chart Model V30SGMe Setting 12 Temperature 12ºC (+/- 2.
To modify the pre-set temperature Adjust the desired cooling temperature by pressing the button(A). Each depression of the button will scroll through the available temperature settings in increments of 1 degree Celsius. The temperature setting can be adjusted from 6 to 18 . LED will flash when setting the temperature. When stopping setting the temperature, LED will flash for another 5 seconds and then display the actual temperature. V30 SG e /AL/S3/BK models The “TEMP.
SG2e models: V30SG2e, V40SG2e AL/S3/BK models The “UPPER CHAMBER LED” displays the upper chamber internal temperature The “LOWER CHAMBER LED” displays the lower chamber internal temperature To view the “set” temperature, press the corresponding button once, the “set” temperature will temporarily “flash” in the LED display for 5 seconds.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT TEMPERATURE Your VINTEC wine cellar has been designed to guarantee optimum conditions for storing and/or serving your wines. Fine wines require long and gentle developments and need specific conditions in which to reach their full potential. All wines mature at the same temperature, which is a constant temperature set between 12ºC to 14ºC. Only the temperature of “dégustation” (wine appreciation) varies according to the type of wines (see “Wine Serving Temperature Chart” above).
Notes: During the refrigerating cycle, heat is given off and disperses through the external surfaces of the wine cellar. Avoid touching the surfaces during those cycles. ADJUSTABLE WOODEN SHELVES Adjusting/removing the shelves For easy access to the storage content, you must pull the shelves approximately 1/3 of its depth out of the rail compartment. These wine cabinets, however, are designed with a notch on each side of the shelf tracks to prevent bottles from falling.

OPERATION ANOMALIES Ensure that there is power to the electrical supply plug by connecting another electrical appliance to it. Check fuse, if any. Make sure that the door is closed properly. If your wine cellar appears to be malfunctioning, unplug it and contact your VINTEC’s after sales service. Any intervention on the cold circuit should be performed by a refrigeration technician who should carry out an inspection of the circuit sealing system.
