Air quality and humidity
A conventional refrigerator with its low
humidity level is not the best place to
store wine. It is very important to store
wine in an atmosphere with a high
humidity level so that the corks remain
moist on the outside. Low humidity
causes corks to dry out from the
outside, and so do not seal the bottles
as tightly. Wine should be stored lying
down to keep the corks moist from the
inside too. Air entering the bottle will
inevitably spoil the wine.
Do not introduce additional moisture
into the air, e.g. by placing a dish of
water in the appliance as this will
lead to condensation on the interior
walls which can cause corrosion
damage.
Dynamic cooling (constant air
humidity) m
Dynamic cooling raises the relative
humidity inside the appliance, Dynamic
cooling also distributes the humidity
and the temperature evenly around the
interior so that you can store all your
wine under the exactly the same
excellent conditions. This will create a
stable climate in the cabinet which
imitates that of a wine cellar.
Switching on Dynamic cooling
If you would like to use the wine storage
unit to store wine long term, we
recommend that you keep the Dynamic
cooling function switched on.
^ Touch the Constant humidity
(Dynamic cooling) sensor. It will light
up yellow.
Even if dynamic cooling has not been
switched on, the fans in the
appliance will come on automatically
when the cooling system switches on
to ensure your wine is kept in the
optimum climate.
The fan automatically switches off
when the door is open.
