6. EQUIPMENT
The climate control system
According to advice from specialists, the ideal temperature for storing wine is around 12°C, within a bracket of 10 to 14°C. Do
not confuse this with service temperature, which varies between 5 and 20°C, depending on the specific nature of the wine.
It is especially important to avoid sudden changes in temperature. Designed by specialists for oenophiles, this appliance, unlike
a simple refrigerator, takes into account the sensitivity of grand cru wines to sudden variations in temperature by ensuring the
close control of a constant average temperature.
The anti-vibration system
The refrigeration compressor is equipped with special dampers (silent-blocks) and the inner space is insulated from the body
by a thick layer of polyurethane foam. These characteristics prevent the transmission of vibration to your wines.
The anti-UV system
Light accelerates the ageing of wine. In our solid door cellars, your wines are naturally protected, on condition, of course, that
the door is not opened too often. This glass-door model has been specially treated and filters out harmful ultraviolet rays, thus
ensuring your wines are perfectly shielded.
Defrosting
Your appliance is equipped with an automatic defrost cycle. When a cooling cycle finishes, the appliance's refrigerated surfaces
are defrosted automatically. The defrost water is channeled into a condensates evaporation tray which is located in the back of
the appliance near the compressor. The heat produced by the compressor then evaporates the condensates collected in the
tray.
Shelves

bottles.

For easier access to the contents of the shelves, slide the shelf out approximately one third of the way. The shelves are,
however, fitted with a stop to prevent the bottles falling out.
•
