Wine arrangement

Top Compartment:

The temperature can be adjusted between +6 and

+11°C.This compartment is ideal for wines, especially new reds and whites, to be consumed immediately.

Bottom Compartment:

The temperature can be adjusted between + 12 and

+18°C.This compartment is ideal for storing and refining red or white wines for long periods.

The temperatures of this compartment are suitable for storing aged and full-bodied wines.

Lay the bottles down in such a way that the

corks do not dry.

Keep the wine in the dark. The oven door is in anti-UV darkened double glass to protect the wine from the light in case the refrigerator is located in a well-lit place.

Avoid switching the appliance light on too

often or for too long.Wine keeps better in the dark.

Handle the bottles with care, to avoid agitating

the wine.

Follow the recommendations and advice received at the time of purchase or given in the technical documentation regarding the quality, duration and optimum storage temperature of the wine.

Storage advice

The storage time for wine depends on ageing, the type of grapes, alcoholic content and level of fructose and tannin contained in it.At the time of purchase, check if the wine is already aged or if it will improve over time.

Recommended storage temperatures:

-For champagne and sparkling wines, between 6 and 8°C

-For white wines, between 10 and 12°C

-For rose’ and light red wines, between 12 and 16°C

-Aged red wines, 14 -16°C

Set the temperature by using “C“/“F“(+) or “E“/“H“ (-) buttons.

The correct position must in any case be determined bearing in mind that the inside temperature depends on these factors:

•Room temperature

•How often the doors are opened

•The quantity of bottles stored

•The position of the appliance

Normal operating sounds

•You may hear faint gurgling or bubbling sounds when the refrigerant is pumped through the coils or tubing at the rear, to the cooling plate/evaporator or to the fixed freezer shelves.

•When the compressor is on, the refrigerant is being pumped round, and you will hear a whirring sound or pulsating noise from the compressor.
