During first use
IMPORTANT: When you use the wine cooler for the first time or restart the appliance
after it has been turned off for a long time, there could be a few degrees variance
between the temperature you select and the one indicated on the LED display. This is
normal and it is due to the length of activation time. Once the wine cooler has been
running for a few hours everything will be back to normal.
• When you first switch on the appliance, the compressor will run continuously until
the wine cooler reaches a cool enough temperature.
• During this period of time, you should try not to open the door frequently or place
bottles inside of the appliance.
• If the unit is switched off or unplugged, you must allow at least 5 minutes before
restarting the appliance or reconnecting it to your mains supply.
Loading the wine cooler
IMPORTANT: Your appliance is ideally suited to store 0.75 litre Bordeaux style wine
bottles. Whilst it can store larger bottles, you must make sure that they do not prevent the
door from shutting properly.
• Always check that you can close the door without it fouling on a wine bottle, before
shutting it.
• When loading several bottles of wine at once, it will take longer for the appliance
to cool the individual bottles.
• As many bottles may differ in size and dimensions, the actual number of bottles you
are able to store may vary.
• The maximum storage number is based on standard 0.75 litre Bordeaux style wine
bottles.
Storing your wines
The chart below indicates the ideal storage temperatures for different types of wine:

Sparkling wines/champagne
• Temperature stability is the most important factor when it comes to storing wine.
• 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.
• Wines kept at a higher temperature will age faster. Wine that is exposed to
temperatures that are greater than 18°C (64°F) will suffer from poorer flavour and
Temperature (Celsius) Temperature (Fahrenheit)
