Proper use of wine cooler

The arrangement of bottle

Pay attention when arranging:

 Do not let bottle touch the cabinet liner’s back in order to maintain good air circulation in the cooler.

 The bottle number here may be different from bottles in different shape and size.

 The capacity for bottle storage in the wine cabinet is based on the following marked bottle size. Oversized bottle may have impact on the number of bottle storage in the wine cabinet.

Φ 30mm

Φ 75mm 215mm

300mm

Usage of temperature zones in the cooler

Due to different temperature zones generated due to air circulation in the cooler ， the upper area's temperature is the highest while the lower area the lowest.

The arrangement of beverage

Different beverage can be stored from top to bottom as following sequence:

 Strong red wine

 Pink and mild red wine

 White wine

 Champagne and spritzer

We suggest to pour wine in temperature below serving temp, as the wine would warming up quickly when pouring into tumbler.

Practical skills for grape wine's storage

 Do not store bottled wine by box or case in refrigerator.

 The cork of the old bottle shall always be moistened when putting into the cooler. Air space is not allowed between wine and cork.

 Open-type bottle shelf is helpful, as it does not cut off air circulation. The air moisture that condensed on bottle can be dried out swiftly.

 The wine shall undergo chambrieren before drinking: Such as put pink red wine onto the table 2-5 hours before drinking and red wine 4-5 hours, then can reach suitable serving temp. White wine, on the contrary, can be served right on the table.

Champagne shall always be stored in cooler and taken out only before drinking.

 Please notice that wine's temperature is always lower than ideal serving temp, as the temperature will immediately rise 1 to 2 ℃

when pouring into tumbler.

Proper use of wine cooler

Serving temperature

The wine's taste depends on right pouring temperature; therefore it determines its flavor.

We suggest the wine's temperature reach the following degree when pouring:

Warm tips:

◆ The wine cooler enclosure may emit heat during operation specially in summer, this is caused by the radiation of the condenser, and it is a normal phenomenon.

◆ Condensation: condensation phenomenon will be detected on the exterior surface and door seals of the freezer when the ambient humidity is large, this is a normal phenomenon, and the condensation can be wiped away with a dry towel.

◆ Airflow sound: Refrigerants circulating in the refrigerant lines will produce eruption of sound and grunts which is normal does not affect the cooling effect.

◆ Buzz: Buzz will be generated by running compressor specially when starting up or shutting down.

◆ Clatter: The solenoid valve or electric switch valve will clatter which is a normal phenomenon and does not affect the operation.

◆ The refrigerating chamber will periodically frost and defrost (water drops will be generated on the backside of the refrigerating chamber when defrosting) which are normal.
