Possible Causes and/or Recommended Solutions
Is the door opened often? Be aware that the wine cellar will warm when this
occurs. In order to keep the wine cellar cool, try to get everything you need out of
the wine cellar at once. Keep wine bottles positioned label side up so that they are
easy to fi nd, and close the door as soon as the wine is removed.
Is the control set correctly for the surrounding conditions? Refer "Controls"
section.
Is the base grille blocked? For best performance, do not install the wine cellar
behind a cabinet door or block the base grille.
Is the door opened often? To avoid humidity buildup, try to get everything you
need out of the wine cellar at once, keep wine bottles positioned label side up so
that they are easy to fi nd, and close the door as soon as the wine is removed. When
the door is opened, humidity from the room air enters the wine cellar. The more
often the door is opened, the faster humidity builds up, especially when the room
itself is very humid.
Is it humid? It is normal for moisture to build up inside the wine cellar when the air
is humid.
Is the control set correctly for the surrounding conditions? Refer "Controls"
