Humidity box (separate accessory, not included)
If the appliance is installed in a dry environmet, we recommend to buy Humidity box.
The purpose of the HumidityBox is to adjust the humidity in one of the zones of the wine climate
cabinet, specifically to prevent humidity from dropping to below 50%, which could appear in certain
conditions (e.g., when the wine climate cabinet is placed in an environment with low humidity).
Humidity level in respective zones can be monitored on the appliance display. If humidity in any
zone drops to 40% or below, an alarm will be activated. You can then place the humidity box, filled
with water, in this zone.
We recommend using the HumidityBox in compartments where the wines are stored for longer
periods, since low humidity there could more severely impact the wine (with long-term drying of the
corks). When you are storing your bottles for shorter periods or preparing them for serving, lower
humidity should not have a significant impact on the wine quality.
Fill the box with 0.5 litre of tap water and place
it in the relevant zone. There are no preferrable
positions, as long as it is placed in the correct
zone.
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.
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%).
You can also buy additional HumidityBoxes when needed.
Please do not put the HumidityBox in the dishwasher, as this type of material is not dishwasher safe.
Because of the relatively thin walls, the box is fragile and should be handled carefully. Occasionally,
shower the inside of the box with tap water.
In case you want to monitor humidity box refill notifications, you have to change SETTINGS
MENU/SYSTEM/Humidity box notification/ from ‘OFF’ to ‘ON’.
