Operation
- When you first turn on the wine cellar, or restart it after an extended period of non-use, there could be a few degrees variance between the temperature you select and the one indicated on the LCD readout. This is normal and it is due to the length of the activation time. Once the wine cellar is allowed for a few hours normal operation will resume.
- Place the cellar in a dry, well-ventilated space with ambient temperature between 50″ – 80°F (10″ – 26 C).
- If the ambient temperature is above or below the recommended range, the unit’s performance may be affected. Extreme cold or
hot conditions may cause the interior temperature to fluctuate. This will then prevent the optimal interior temperature range from being reached. In addition, the temperature may fluctuate depending on whether the interior light is on or off, and whether the bottles are located on the unner middle or lower racks.
