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
▪
To prevent damage to the door seal, ensure that the door is fully open before pulling out the
shelves to add or remove 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.
Enhanced safety
Since this range of appliances is intended for storing items of value, we have been careful to select
quality components and to design suitable manufacturing techniques to ensure optimum safety in
operation.
Installing the handle
Your appliance has a stainless steel handle. To fit it, simply screw it onto the door with the screws
supplied as per the diagram below, having first removed the seal.
7. LOADING
The maximum recommended loading quantities for bottles are given as guidelines and are indicative
only; they provide a quick estimate of the size of the appliance (similar to the capacity of a refrigerator
expressed in liters).
They correspond to tests conducted with a standard bottle: the standard "75 cl light Bordeaux" bottle -
standards apply the geographical origin of each bottle shape (Bordeaux, Burgundy, Provence, etc.) and
a type (traditional, heavy, light, flute, etc.), each with its own diameter and height.
In reality and in extreme cases, you could store more bottles by stacking the same type of bottle without
using shelves, but a varied cellar comprises a wide variety of bottles and the practical aspect of everyday
cellar management limits its capacity. You will therefore probably load the appliance a little less than the
recommended maximum.
