When the cabinet door is left open for long periods of time wine quality may be compromised.

Automatic defrosting

  • This model has been designed to maintain the relative humidity inside the Wine Cabinet alongside the automatic defrosting cycle.
  • Water captured in the reservoir tray from a defrost cycle assists in maintaining the humidity. Humidity levels may be further assisted by adding water to the reservoir trays and activating the ‘Air-Cool’ function.
