The anti-vibration system
Wine does not like to be disturbed. It especially dislikes vibration.
This is why your wine cellar's slow-cycle compressor is mounted on special shock
absorbers called "silent blocks".
Likewise, the inner container is insulated from the body by a thick layer of
polyurethane foam which also has the particular feature of absorbing vibration.
Depending on the model, the wine bottle shelves are made of solid wood and absorb
vibration better than metal.
On some models, the shelf supports are also equipped with rubber pads.
Your bottles are enjoying perfect peace!
Hygrometry
Your Climadiff cellar is equipped with a dynamic humidity system, which regulates
the humidity level in the cabinet entirely automatically. No addition of water is
required. It is necessary to wait a few days after start-up for the average (between 55
and 70%) to stabilise in the cabinet. Frost will form at the bottom of the cabinet: no
cause for worry, this is a normal phenomenon, which may appear when the appliance
is used for the first time during the hotter periods of the year and which will disappear
when the natural inertia level is reached.
The winter system (optional on some models)
The winter kit is a frost protection system which enables the cellar to operate in an
environment where the temperature is between 0 and 32°C. A sensor located outside
the appliance triggers a low power electrical element when the ambient temperature
in the room falls to around 8°C in case. This is a low power element to avoid sudden
rises in the temperature of the wine and so avoid thermal shocks that are damaging
to the preservation of the wine. The kit is intended to raise the cellar's internal
temperature even before there is a thermal exchange with the bottles.
IMPORTANT: If the temperature in the room where your wine cellar is located is
about 12ºC (±2), no production of warm or cold air will be observed. The
appliance is then completely silent and this is quite normal. It should not be
considered as a malfunction.
The anti-UV system
Light accelerates the aging of wine. In our solid door cellars, your wines are naturally
protected, on condition, of course, that the door is not opened too often. Models with
a glass door are UV treated, thus filtering out damaging ultraviolet rays: your wines
are therefore protected.
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 channelled 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.
