Defrosting
• The unit defrosts automatically in normal operating conditions.
• The evaporator behind the rear wall of the unit defrosts automatically. The condensate collects in
the drainage channel behind the rear wall of the unit, and flows through the drainage hole into
the drip tray near the compressor where it evaporates.
• However, frost may accumulate on the evaporator if the unit is repeatedly opened in a high heat
or high humidity location. If this frost pattern does not clear within 24 hours, your unit will require
manual defrosting.
Storage
Bottles can differ in size. Accordingly, the actual number of bottles you can store may vary.
The approximate maximum bottle capacity can be achieved when storing traditional 750 ml Bordeaux
bottles in bulk storage.
You may load your wine bottles in single rows or by stacking while taking note of the following: if you
do not have enough bottles to fill your wine cellar, it is better to distribute the load throughout the wine
cellar so as to avoid “all on top” or “all below” type loads.
• Keep small gaps between the walls and the bottles to allow air to circulate. As in an underground
cellar, air circulation is important to prevent mold and for a more homogeneous temperature within
the cellar.
• To facilitate air circulation, do not overload your wine cellar.
• Avoid obstructing the internal fans (located inside on the rear panel of the wine cellar).
• To prevent bottles from falling, do not try to slide the shelves outward beyond the fixed position.
• Do not pull out more than one loaded shelf at a time as this may cause the wine cellar to tilt forward
if not properly installed.
