WINE CELLAR USE
Normal Sounds
Your new wine cellar may make sounds that your old one didn’t
make. Because the sounds are new to you, you might be
concerned about them. Most of the new sounds are normal. Hard
surfaces, such as the flooring and surrounding structures, can
make the sounds seem louder. The following describes the kinds
of sounds and what may be making them.
■ Your wine cellar is designed to run more efficiently to keep
your wine at the desired temperatures and to minimize energy
usage. The high efficiency compressor and fans may cause
your wine cellar to run longer than your old one. You may also
hear a pulsating or high-pitched sound from the compressor
or fans adjusting to optimize performance.
■ Rattling noises may come from the flow of refrigerant or items
stored inside the wine cellar.
■ As each cycle ends, you may hear a gurgling sound due to
the refrigerant flowing in your wine cellar.
■ You may hear water running into the drain pan when the wine
cellar is defrosting.
■ You may hear clicking sounds when the wine cellar starts or
stops running.
Using the Control
For your convenience, your wine cellar control is preset at the
factory. When you first install your wine cellar, make sure that the
control is still preset to the mid-setting as shown.
Adjusting Controls
The mid-setting indicated in the previous section should be
correct for normal usage. The control is set correctly when
beverages are as cold as you like.
If you need to adjust the temperature, wait at least 24 hours
between adjustments and then recheck the temperature.
To make the wine cellar colder, adjust the control to the next
higher setting. To make the wine cellar less cold, adjust the
control to the next lower setting.
Temperature Separator (Temperature Display)
The temperature separator displays the current temperatures
(Fahrenheit or Celsius) for the upper and lower zones
(compartments) of the wine cellar. To adjust the temperature
settings, see “Adjusting Controls” earlier in this section.
Recommended Zone Storing Locations
For best storing and serving temperatures for your bottle of wine,
use the wine producer's recommended temperature setting. See
the wine’s label for details. It is recommended to store wine for
short-term (few months) at 55°F (13°C).
