BEFORE LOADING & PLUGGING IN THE WINE CELLAR
Important: All models without front venting (air opening) are strictly for free standing only. ( see technical chart)
Recommendations:
The location you have selected for your wine cellar should:
– be unencumbered and well ventilated;
– be well away from any heat source and direct sunlight;
– not be too damp (laundry, pantry, bathroom etc.);
– have a flat floor,
– have a standard and reliable electricity supply (standard socket to country standards, linked to the ground), it is NOT recommended to use a multi-socket or extension lead.
– have a surge protector fitted to the electrical outlet
– away from the microwave.
Certain microwave ovens do not have wave interference shield. When placed within a 1 meter vicinity of the wine cabinet, they may affect the operation of the wine cabinet.
Notes:
– V30 models are for free standing ONLY:
– V40 models are built-in type as per the drawings thereafter;
– V50 models are partially built-in, MUST allow 1cm to, side & back clearance. The wine cellar should be placed where the ambient temperature is between 5ºC to 35ºC. If the ambient temperature is above or below this range, the performance of the unit may be affected. Placing your unit in extreme cold or hot conditions may cause interior temperatures to fluctuate. The ideal range of temperature may not be reached. (See Climate Class at the end of this manual)
Grounding instructions
The wine cellar must be grounded in case of an electrical short circuit. Grounding reduces the risk of electrical shock. The wine cellar is equipped with a power cord having a grounding wire and plug. The wine cellar plug must be plugged into a properly affixed and grounded electrical outlet.
Note: In locations where there is frequent lightning, it is advisable to use surge protectors.
Improper use of the grounding plug can result in the risk of electric shock. Consult a qualified electrician or service person if the grounding instructions are not completely understood.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replace by a qualified person in order to avoid electrical hazard.
Installing your wine cellar
Unpack and remove all of the protection and adhesive strips from the packaging around and inside the wine cellar.
The wine cellar must be positioned such that the plug is accessible. Release the power cord. Move your wine cellar to its final location. The wine cellar should be installed in a suitable place where the compressor will not be subject to physical contact.
Leveling your wine cellar: Wine cellar must be leveled BEFORE loading your wines. Your Vintec wine cellar is equipped with 4 adjustable feet to facilitate easy leveling. VINTEC recommends that you tighten the back feet to the maximum and adjust the front feet to create a level.
Back spacer:
Compressor run appliances require proper ventilation for proper and longer usage. Your Vintec wine cellar is supplied with a back spacer. Affixed the back spacer at the back of the cellar for air circulation and heat evacuation.
IMPORTANT – THIS SPACER MUST BE ATTACHED TO THE UNIT BEFORE INSTALLATION FOR VENTILATION PURPOSE. FAILURE TO DO SO VOIDS THE WARRANTY
TURNING ON YOUR WINE CELLAR
Plug in and switch on the cellar by pressing on the power button for a few seconds. When you use the wine cellar for the first time (or restart the wine cellar after having it shut off for a long time), there will be a few degrees, variance between the temperature you have selected and the one indicated on the LED readout. This is normal and it is due to the length of the activation time. Once the wine cellar is running for a few hours everything will stabilize.
Important: If the unit is unplugged, power is lost, or turned off, wait 3 to 5 minutes before restarting the unit. The wine cellar will not start if you attempt to restart before this time delay.
Operating Noises
To reach the desired temperature settings, VINTEC wine cellars, like all wine cellars operating with compressors and fans, may produce the following types of noises. These noises are normal and occur as follows:
– Gurgling sound, caused by the refrigerant flowing through the appliance’s coils, – Cracking/popping sounds, resulting from the contraction and expansion of the refrigerant gas to produce cold,
– Fan operating sound, to circulate the air within the wine cellar.
An individual’s perception of noise is directly linked to the environment in which the wine cellar is located, as well the specific type of models. VINTEC wine cellars are in line with international standards for such appliance. VINTEC will always do its utmost to satisfy its customers but will not retake possession of the goods due to complaints based on normal operating noise occurrences.
LOADING YOUR WINE CELLAR
You may load your wine bottles in single or double rows 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.
– Do remove or relocate adjustable wooden shelves to accommodate larger type of bottles or increase the capacity of the cellar by stacking the bottles up when necessary. (See removing shelves)
– Keep smalls gap between the walls and the bottles to allow air circulation. Like an underground cellar air circulation is important to prevent mould and for a better homogeneous temperature within the cellar.
– Do not over load your wine cellar to facilitate air circulation
– Do not stack more than 1.5 rows of standard 0.75L bottles per shelves to facilitate air circulation
– Avoid obstructing the internal fans (located inside on the back panel of the wine cellar). – Do not try to slide the shelves outwards beyond the fixed position to prevent the bottles from falling.
– Do not pull out more than one loaded shelf at a time as this may cause the wine cellar to tilt forward.
– Do not cover the wooden shelves with alloy foil or other materials, as it will obstruct air circulation.
– Do not move your wine cellar while it is loaded with wines. This might distort the body of the wine cellar and cause back injury.
TYPES OF REGULATION
Please note that depending on the loading and settings chosen it takes 24hours for the wine cellar to see the temperature stabilizing.
During this time LED seems to move erratically in particular for 2e models. It is a normal process. This process occurs whenever the setting is modified and/or whenever a large amount of bottles are added to the cellar.
Single temperature Maturing/Storage wine cellars:
V30SG,V40SG,V50SG: standard regulation
V30SG”e”,V40SG”e”,V50SG”e”: electronic regulation, digital display.
Designed to store and mature all wines: red, white and sparkling. These wine cellars reproduce the ideal conditions for wine storage, at a constant recommended temperature of 12ºC. They can also be set to provide ideal serving temperature for full enjoyment of the wine’s qualities. Unless stated by the wine maker on the bottle, VINTEC recommends 7ºC for your champagne, 12ºC for whites and 18ºC for reds. (Refer to “Wine Service Temperature” recommendation chart)
Two Compartment single temperature wine cellars (2-in-1 Wine Cellars): V40DG”2e”, V50DG”2e” : electronic regulation digital display
DG models are made of two independent compartments regulated independently as 2 single zone wine cellars. Like the e models, each compartment are adjustable from 5ºC to 18ºC. Ideal for storage or “mise en temperature” (The right temperature for optimum enjoyment)
Two Temperature Serving Wine Cellars:
V30SG”2e”, V40SG”2e”, V50SG”2e” : electronic regulation digital display
Designed to store wines at the correct temperature for best enjoyment. The upper chamber can hold 12, 14 or 16 bottles, depending on the models, at a temperature of 5ºC to 10ºC dedicated mainly to white, sparkling wines and champagnes. The lower chamber accommodates 20, 30 or 34 bottles, depending on the models, mainly for red wines, which could be stored either at room temperature (18ºC-20ºC) for consumption or at 12ºC for a longer time of storage.
TEMPERATURE SETTINGS
Important: The LCD displays by default the actual internal air temperature.
The temperature settings are pre-set at the factory as follows. In the event of a power interruption, all previous temperature settings are automatically erased and it will revert to the preset temperature settings.

It is important to understand that there is a difference between the air temperature inside the wine cellar and the actual temperature of the wine: You will need to wait approximately 12 hours before noticing the effects of temperature adjustment due to the critical mass within a full wine cellar.
Once the thermostat is set, it is strongly advised not to toy with it or adjust frequently. The thermostat will maintain the temperature inside the wine cellar within a +/- 2.5ºC range. But the thermal inertia of the wine and the glass is such that within this temperature range, the actual temperature of the wine will only fluctuate 0.5ºC to 1ºC.
Standard models:
“MAX” adjustable from 5 to 9 ºC
“NORMAL” adjustable from 10 to 14 ºC
“MIN” adjustable from 15 to 18 ºC
To modify the pre-set temperature of standard models:

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT TEMPERATURE
Your VINTEC wine cellar has been designed to guarantee optimum conditions for storing and/or serving your wines.
Fine wines require long and gentle developments and need specific conditions in which to reach their full potential.
All wines mature at the same temperature, which is a constant temperature set between 12ºC to 14ºC. Only the temperature of “dégustation” (wine appreciation) varies according to the type of wines (see “Wine Serving Temperature Chart” above). This being said and as it is for natural cellars used by wine producers for long period of storage, it is not the exact temperature that is important, but its consistency. In other words, as long as the temperature of your wine cellar is constant (between 12ºC to 14ºC) your wines will be stored in perfect conditions.
Not all wines will improve over the years. Some should be consumed at an early stage (2 to 3 years) while others have tremendous ageing capability (50 and over). All wines have a peak in maturity. Do check with your wine merchant to get the relevant information.
DEFROSTING/CONDENSATION/ HYGROMETRY/ VENTILATION
Your wine cellar is designed with “Auto-cycle” defrost system. During “Off- cycle” the refrigerated surfaces of the wine cellar defrost automatically. Defrost water from the wine cellar storage compartment drains automatically and part of it goes into a drainage container, which is located at the back of the wine cellar next to the compressor. The heat is transferred from the compressor and evaporates any condensation that has collected in the pan. Part of the remaining water is collected within the wine cellar for humidity purposes.
This system enables the creation of the correct humidity level inside your wine cellar required by the natural cork to maintain a long lasting seal.
Notes: The water collected by condensation, is therefore recycled. Under extremely dry environmental conditions, you may have to add some water into the water container provided with your wine cellar.
All units are equipped with a double glazed glass door that has a third internal acrylic layer to minimize condensation on the glass door.
The wine cellar is not totally sealed; fresh air admission is permitted through the drainpipe. Air is circulated through the cellar by means of a fan/fans and the hollow shelves.
Notes: During the refrigerating cycle, heat is given off and disperse through the external surfaces of the wine cellar. Avoid touching the surfaces during those cycles.
ADJUSTABLE WOODEN SHELVES
Adjusting/removing the shelves
For easy access to the storage content, you must pull the shelves approximately 1/3 of its depth out of the rail compartment. These wine cabinets, however, are designed with a notch on each side of the shelf tracks to prevent bottles from falling.
V30. V40 & V50 models
When removing any of these shelves out of the rail compartment, tilt the shelf as per the diagram and simply pull out, or push in the shelf until it sits on the support brackets securely.
REVERSIBILITY OF THE DOOR
Warning: To avoid accident during the process of changing the door, we recommend that you get assistance. Door is heavy and may cause injury if dropped.
According the model and the type of handle your wine cabinet is equipped with, such as long strait bar handle , the door might needs to be rotated for 180 degrees or changed for a right opening one.

If your wine cellar appears to be malfunctioning, unplug it and contact your VINTEC’s after sales service. Any intervention on the cold circuit should be performed by a refrigeration technician who should carry out an inspection of the circuit sealing system. Similarly, any intervention on the electrical circuit should be performed by a qualified electrician.
Notes : Any intervention performed by a non-technician will lead to the warranty being considered as null and void.
POWER FAILURES
In the event of a power interruption, all previous temperature settings are automatically erased and it will revert to a preset temperature setting . ( see preset chart)
Most power failures are corrected within a short period of time. An hour or two’s loss of power will not affect your wine cellar’s temperatures. To avoid sudden change of temperature while the power is off, you should avoid opening the door. For longer period of power failure, do take steps to protect your wine.
Irrespective of the cause, if you notice either abnormal temperature or humidity levels inside your wine cellar, be reassured that only long and frequent exposure to these abnormal conditions can cause a detrimental effect on your wines.
