Description of the appliance
Wooden bottom bottle rack (8)
3-layered glass door with UV filter (9)
The 3-layered glass door is filled with argon (a noble gas), which makes them more energy efficient.
For maximum protection from sunlight that can harm the wine's aging process, an additional UV film
is used that stops 99% of sunlight.
The door closes automatically when the opening angle is less than 20°. The soft-close mechanism
gently closes the door.
Humidity box
One HumidityBox is supplied with the wine climate cabinet.
The purpose of this humidity box is to increase humidity of the Wine Climate Cabinet, to prevent
humidity to drop under 50% that can appear in certain conditions (when the Wine Climate Cabinet
is placed in an environment with low humidity).
You can monitor on the appliance display if there is low humidity (a notification will be given when
humidity reaches 50% and an alarm when it reaches 40%).
The HumidityBox is made in an artisan workshop with fine craftmanship. As a result, minor irregularities
in material or shape may occur. They, however, do not have any effect on functionality.
The colour of the box changes when it is filled with water: as the walls absorb water, they become
darker. Depending on the hardness of your tap water, some white limescale stains may appear on
the material. To avoid this, you may use descaled or distilled water. The white stains can be washed
off.
After placing the HumidityBox in the correct zone, it will take approximately 9 hours to increase the
humidity back from 40% to 50%. After 9 hours, humidity will continue to slowly increase.
On average, the HumidityBox should be refilled every 30 days. The appliance will sound an alarm
when humidity gets too low (below 40%).

The wooden bottom bottle rack is intended for
storing the bottles in the compressor area. This
area is suitable for storing bottles you wish to
keep for a longer period of time, especially for
ageing without excessive vibration and
unnecessary movement. Up to 27 Bordeaux
bottles (0.75 l) can be stored on the wooden
bottom bottle rack.
You can fill the box with 0,5 liter of water and
place it in the cabinet.
HumidityBox is made of clay, a natural material
with the right characteristics to first absorb
water and then allow it to evaporate to increase
humidity.
The walls and bottom of the clay box are
glazed to prevent water leakage. Water is
absorbed by all walls, but will only evaporate
through the unglazed top surface.
