3.2. PREPARING FOR USE
APPLIANCE LOCATION
The ambient temperature should not exceed the range of
5-32°C and the relative humidity should not exceed 85%.
Ensure good ventilation in the room in which the device
is being used. Keep a minimum distance of approx. 13 cm
from the rear and side walls of the device. The device should
always be used when positioned on an even, stable, clean,
fireproof and dry surface, and be out of the reach of children
and persons with limited mental and sensory functions.
Position the device such that you always have access to the
power plug. The power cord connected to the appliance
must be properly grounded and correspond to the technical
details on the product label. Level the device using the
adjustable feet. Before the first use, remove and wash all
accessories; wash the device inside and dry it thoroughly.
ASSEMBLING THE APPLIANCE
After transporting the device, do not turn it on for approx.
8 hours before connecting it to the power source - the
refrigerant must be evenly distributed around the system to
prevent possible failure of the cooling system as the result
of the device being tilted from the vertical axis beyond 45°.
3.3. DEVICE USE

PLEASE NOTE: when first switched on, the compressor
in the appliance may run continuously, and the
cooler inside may give off an unpleasant smell. This
is normal and is not a defect of the device! Over
time, the unpleasant smell should disappear, and
when the device desired temperature is reached,
the compressor will turn off. During this time, avoid
opening the cooler door frequently or placing bottles
inside.
IMPORTANT: after switching the device off or
disconnecting it from the power source, wait at least 5
minutes before reconnecting or switching it on.

3.3.2. SUGGESTIONS FOR OPTIMAL USE
•
Grill shelves (trays) for beverage bottles are adapted
to store standard wine bottles, i.e. 0.75 L, and it is on
this this basis that the maximum number of stored
bottles has been calculated, although larger bottles
can also be stored in the cooler.

•
For the safety of the user and to secure the stored
beverages, the grid shelves (trays) have been designed
in such a way that they cannot be removed in full,
when the bottles are stacked. For optimal access, just
slide the appropriate tray out to 1/3 of its length.
•
Adding several bottles at once will take more time to
cool than when the bottles are added individually.
•
Make sure that the cooler door is tightly closed and
that nothing prevents it from closing (e.g. insufficiently
inserted shelf).
•
Wine stored at higher temperatures ages faster and
may lose flavour and aroma. On the other hand, if
the storage temperature is too low, it may cause the
accumulation of harmful deposits inside the bottles.
Exposing the wine to light, vibrations, or fluctuations
in temperature or humidity harms its taste, bouquet of
aromas and may lead to spoilage. The ideal humidity
for wine storage is 60-70%, while the temperature
depends on the type of wine:
Type of wine
Storage temperature (°C)
red
15.5 – 18.5
white
10 - 15
sparkling/champagne
7.2 – 9.5
rosé
9.5 – 10.5
mature/good vintage

the
•
When the bottle is opened, the wine comes into
contact with air, so store the opened bottle in such
a position that the smallest possible surface of the
wine comes into contact with the air. After opening
the bottle, the wine, it is suitable for consumption for
2 more days for delicate white wines or 3 for red wines
with a strong, rich taste.
