For this reason it is essential that all attachable furniture/fixtures are connected securely to the base or the wall by suitable means.

Ventilation

The air intake and outlet must not be blocked or covered in any way. They also need to be dusted/cleaned on a regular basis.

Installation niche

To ensure safe, trouble-free installation and the best possible cosmetic result, check to be sure that the installation space complies with the installation dimensions. See "Niche dimensions".

The side walls of the installation cavity must be plumb.

The minimum thickness of the side walls and the top wall must be 5/8" (16 mm).

The minimum thickness of the toe-kick panel must be ½" (13 mm). A thickness of 3/4" (19 mm) is recommended.

KWT1601VI, KWT1611VI specifications

The Miele KWT1611VI and KWT1601VI are two exceptional wine coolers designed for discerning wine enthusiasts who appreciate the art of wine storage. Miele is renowned for its commitment to quality and innovation, and these models exemplify this dedication.

The KWT1611VI boasts a sleek, integrated design that allows it to blend seamlessly into any kitchen or dining area. It features a capacity for up to 38 bottles, making it ideal for wine collectors and casual drinkers alike. It includes two temperature zones, which can be individually adjusted from 41°F to 68°F. This feature ensures optimal storage for both white and red wines, preserving their flavors and aromas.

One of the standout technologies of the KWT1611VI is Miele's Active AirClean filter. This specially designed filter eliminates unwanted odors, creating a perfectly neutral environment for wine storage. Additionally, the KWT1611VI employs vibration dampening technology, which minimizes vibrations that can disturb wine. A quiet, efficient compressor contributes to a stable temperature environment, further enhancing the preservation of wine quality.

On the other hand, the Miele KWT1601VI is slightly smaller, accommodating up to 24 bottles. It similarly features dual temperature zones, allowing users to maintain optimal conditions for different types of wine. Its compact size makes it perfect for those with limited space or who prefer a standalone wine cooler.

Both models feature a sleek, user-friendly control panel, providing convenient access to temperature settings and other options. The innovative LED lighting illuminates the interior without generating heat, ensuring your wine bottles are showcased beautifully while being stored at the correct temperatures.

In addition to their robust functionality, the KWT1611VI and KWT1601VI are constructed with high-quality materials, including stainless steel and UV-resistant glass. This not only enhances the aesthetic appeal of the coolers but also protects wine from harmful UV radiation, which can degrade quality over time.

In summary, the Miele KWT1611VI and KWT1601VI wine coolers are designed with the wine lover in mind. Featuring dual temperature zones, advanced filtration systems, and space-efficient designs, they represent the perfect blend of functionality and aesthetics, making them an ideal choice for anyone looking to enhance their wine storage experience.
