Vintec “Built in” wine cellars require 10mm clearance on both sides and top, 30mm clearance at the rear (Back spacer is provided),to facilitate installation, removal, servicing and ventilation. 3. Vintec “Built in” wine cellars draw air from the rear and expels through the metal grid under the door at the front. If a kick board is to be placed in front of the wine cellar’s grid another one must be fitted into the kick board with a minimum air flow allowance of 150cm2. 4. Vintec “Built in” wine cellars have a power switch located on the control panel so power point location is not critical. 5. The wine cellar requires a standard 240 volt/10 amp power point. (Or according to different countries specifications). 6. The power cord is 1.9m in length and is fixed on the right side at the back when looking from front of cabinet. 7. As with most appliances of today, the wine cellar has sensitive electronic components which are susceptible to damage through lightning and electricity supply faults. It is therefore advised to use a power surge protector to avoid problems of this nature. 8 Air vent within the joinery must be provided for Vintec built in wine cellars (front venting) In Hot climate zone, an air vent or grid, with a minimum ventilation size of 200mm x 40mm MUST be cut out at the rear top of the back partitioning or at the top of either side of the partitioning, allowing cool fresh air full access to flow into the 30mm gap located at the rear of the cabinet.

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 may 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. User Manual 10 V40DG2EBK AL-V40DG2E - 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 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 about 24 hours for the wine cellar to see the temperature stabilizing. During this time LED seems to move erratically. It is normal and this process occurs whenever the setting is modified and/or whenever a large amount of bottles are added to the cellar. Two Compartment single temperature wine cellars (2-in-1 Wine Cellars): 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 6ºC to 18ºC. Ideal for storage or “mise en temperature” (The right temperature for optimum enjoyment) User Manual V40DG2EBK AL-V40DG2E 11 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. Factory preset chart Setting Right compartment: 12 Temperature 12ºC (+/- 2.5ºC) Left compartment: 7 7ºC (+/- 2.5ºC) 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 temperature 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. The “DISPLAY LED” displays the internal temperature. The set temperature automatically appears by pressing either the UP or DOWN button. To modify the pre-set temperature Adjust the desired cooling temperature by pressing the UP or DOWN buttons. Each depression of the buttons will scroll through the available temperature settings in increments of 1 degree Celsius. The temperature setting can be adjusted from 6� to 18�. To view the “set” temperature, press and hold the UP or DOWN buttons, the “set” temperature will temporarily “flash” in the LED display for 5 seconds. User Manual 12 V40DG2EBK AL-V40DG2E WINE SERVING TEMPERATURE CHART All wines mature at the same temperature, which is a constant temperature set between 12ºC to 14ºC. The below chart is an indicative temperature chart to indicate the best temperature for drinking purposes.

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. User Manual 14 V40DG2EBK AL-V40DG2E Notes: During the refrigerating cycle, heat is given off and disperses 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. 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 accidents during the process of changing the door, we recommend that you get assistance. The glass door is heavy and may cause injury if dropped. - Depending on to the model and the type of handle your wine cabinet is equipped with, you may have to rotate the door through 180 degrees. - Depending on the type of handle your wine cabinet is equipped with, the door may not be reversible or may require that a left or right opening door be ordered to change the opening side.

User Manual 16 V40DG2EBK AL-V40DG2E OPERATION ANOMALIES Ensure that there is power to the electrical supply plug by connecting another electrical appliance to it. Check fuse, if any. Make sure that the door is closed properly. 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- authorized technician by Vintec 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 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.
