TEMPERATURE CONTROL 

Important note: In order to operate efficiently, wine cellars should be in an 
environment with an ambient temperature of less than 90°F (32°C). 
 
Setting the temperature control (presets): 

For your convenience, the wine cellar is programmed at the average storing 
temperature. The temperature pre-set by the manufacturer is 54°F (12°C), 
which the indicator will display. To change the preset temperature in the wine 
cellar, simply press the preset button until the desired number appears.  
 
Setting the temperature control (manually): 

You can also manually adjust the temperature. Simply press the DOWN button 
on the control panel to decrease the temperature and the UP button to increase 
the temperature inside the wine cellar. The temperature range is from 45°F (7°C) 
to 65°F (18°C). 
 

The upper zone will be approximately 8 - 9°F (4.4 - 5°C) warmer and the lower 
zone will be approximately 8 - 9°F (4.4 - 5°C) cooler than the middle section. 
The fluctuation temperature display is normal. It is normal for the temperature 
display to fluctuate by roughly -5°F ~ 5°F (-2.8°C ~ 2.8°C).
