Minimum application temperature: +0°C.
Assuming that a wine cabinet is subjected to such extreme temperatures, the winter system will
work although it does not have enough power to compensate for extremely cold ambient
temperatures.

At 25°C, the device is regulated by normal refrigeration.
At an ambient temperature of 10°C, the production of hot or cold air is not required.
At an ambient temperature of 8°C and below, the drop in the ambient temperature will change the
thermal balance of the air in the cabinet, although this will be significantly delayed by the insulator.
The display therefore indicates the temperature of the air in the cabinet, which does not include the
thermal inertia. The temperature of the bottles remains the same despite the recorded fluctuations.
Fluctuations can be recorded according to the length of the exposure to the cold.
If the reduction of the ambient temperature continues, the winter system will start up and begin
compensating for the drop in temperature. The internal reheating process is now in progress and will
slowly increase the temperature.
If the temperature shown on the display does not match the operator's expectations, this is perfectly
normal! Although the air temperature in the wine cabinet drops, the winter system increases the
temperature before a heat exchange with the contents of the bottles is even possible.
To illustrate this, anybody stood at the side of a swimming pool, whether it has an ambient
temperature of +35°C or +18°C will touch the water before diving in, simply because the air
temperature at a given moment (T) does not determine the temperature of the water as a mass.
In the event that it may be 35°C or 18°C, the water temperature could very well be 25°C, which is
often the case.
