9. PROBLEMS AND SOLUTIONS
You can solve many simple problems with your wine cellar yourself, thus avoiding having to
contact your after-sales department. Try the following suggestions.
The cellar will not start
The cellar is not plugged in.
If your wine cellar is in an unheated room,
refer to the section "Winter kit".
The fuse in your electrical installation has
blown.
The cellar does not cool sufficiently
The thermostat position is set to provide
insufficient cooling: adjust it.
The external temperature is beyond the
cellar’s operating temperature.
The thermostat is set to provide excessive
cooling: adjust it.
The humidity level is too high
Bottle labels are coming unstuck
Humidity is regulated by the principle of
thermodynamics. During a cooling period, a
frost forms (cold air dries the air), humidity
will fall to 40%. During a heating period, the
frost melts and humidity may reach 75%.
Taking an average of these two values, we
obtain an average humidity of 55%. It is
essential to calculate an average value over
several cycles and not from a single
reading.
There are two alternatives for reducing the
cellar’s humidity:
- - Replace the charcoal filters
- - Decrease the temperature slightly inside
the cellar
The humidity level is too low
Humidity is regulated by the principle of
thermodynamics. During a cooling period, a
frost forms (cold air dries the air), humidity
