FROM VINEYARD TO WINE In former times, good french cellars were built to maintain a temperature not exceeding 14 to 16°C in all seasons. Today, this is rarely the case. Nevertheless, a cellar worthy of the name must be protected against wide variations in temperature, be as damp as necessary and ventilated, dark and free of vibration.
CHARACTERISTICS Setting the temperature Maximum outdoor temperature Cooling power Electricity supply Electrical power Heating power WINE C25/C25S(R) Preset to 12°C, adjustable between 4 and 15°C* 35°C** 550 W at 15°C ** 235 V – 50 Hz 400 W 250 w ( only for C25S(R)) The circuit breaker must be at least 16 Amps. * The insulation quality and thickness has to be in accordance with the volume of the cellar and the set temperature. ** The cooling performance is dependant from the outside temperature.
Insulation continuity : Insulating components must be assembled preferably by interlocking panels or glueing the panels together, to ensure perfect continuity of insulation. This is very important: it prevents heat and humidity entering from the outside which would counter the effects of regulation.
1.2.3 FLOOR INSULATION The cellar floor must be able to support shelves and the wine stored on them. You should therefore choose an insulating material with adequate compression resistance for this part. Manufacturers recommend appropriate insulation or materials designed specifically for floor insulation, in their documentation. Puncture resistance (feet of shelves in particular) is provided: - by using "complex" insulation panels lined, on the upper surface, with a strong panel.
2.2 SEALING AND LEVELLING THE WOODEN FRAME Seal the wooden frame so that it is flush with the inside of the cellar wall. If the wall is thicker than the wooden frame, cut a wedge-shape in the wall, as shown in the diagram above. The joint between the wooden frame and the insulation must be filled (with polyurethane foam, for example), to ensure continuity of insulation. WARNING, DO NOT PUT POLYURETHANE FOAM BETWEEN THE WINEMASTER AND THE WOODEN FRAME, THE WINEMASTER MUST BE REMOVABLE.
Check the seal between the wooden frame and the Winemaster. The electrical connection cable and the PVC condensate tube are situated inside the cellar. 2.3.3 INSTALLING THE WATER DRAINAGE SYSTEM Flow from the condensate collection tray. Push the PVC pipe on. Place the collar as close to the pipe as possible for better adhesion. Tighten the collar using a universal wrench or pliers. The pipe is well attached.
3. USING THE WINEMASTER AIR-CONDITIONER The thermostat indicates the temperature in the wine cellar with a precision of 2°C. A temperature change of the air does not mean the same change of temperature of the liquid due to the thermal capacity of the liquid. The temperature is set at 12° C in the factory. During installation the set temperature must be controlled and adjusted as shown in next paragraph if necessary (paragraph 3.1.2 & 3.2.2 ).
3.2 STARTING UP MODEL WINE C18S(R) (WITH HEATER) 3.2.1. CONNECTING THE AIR-CONDITIONER When you plug it into the electrical socket. The fan in the cellar starts up immediately. The compressor may not come on until 2 minutes later if the temperature of the cellar is higher than the set temperature. If the temperature of the cellar is the same as the setting on the thermostat, the compressor will not come on. 3.2.
4. MAINTAINING THE WINEMASTER AIR-CONDITIONER THE DUST FILTER It is essential to replace the dust filter, which is outside the cellar, as soon as necessary and at least once a year. If it is clogged, the air-conditioner may be seriously damaged. 4.1 CHANGING THE FILTER. Raise it at the notch under the air-conditioner and remove it from underneath. Repeat this action in reverse order to replace it. 5. GUARANTEE 5.1.
5.3 EXCLUSIONS AND LIMITS OF GUARANTEE The guarantee is refused in the following cases: - The cellar and installation have not been insulated in accordance with this guide. - The damage is due to negligence, poor maintenance, defective or inappropriate use of the WINEMASTER. - Part exchanges or replacements under guarantee will not have the effect of extending it.
