Use temperature zones
in the refrigerator
compartment!
The air circulation in the appliance
produces different refrigeration zones:
The warmest zone is at the top.
The coldest zone is at the bottom.
Arrange drinks
Store different types of wine from top
to bottom according to the following
sequence:
Haevy red wines
n
Rosé and light red wines
n
White wine
n
Champagne and sparkling wines.
n
It is recommended to serve the wine a
few degrees colder than the required
drinking temperature, as the wine warms
up quickly when poured into glasses.

Practical tips for storing
wine
Unpack bottles of wine – do not leave
n
in crates or cardboard boxes – before
storing in the refrigerator
compartment.
n Place old bottles so that the cork
is always wet. There should never
be an air gap between the wine and
the cork.
The open bottle shelves are especially
n
suitable because they do not interrupt
the air circulation.
As a result, the atmospheric humidity
which condenses on the bottles
quickly dries again.
Before the wine is drunk, it should
n
be "warmed up" (chambré):
Place e.g. rosé wine on the table
approx. 2 - 5 hours before drinking,
red wine 4 - 5 hours before drinking.
The wine will then be at the correct
drinking temperature.
Sparkling wine and Champagne
should be cooled in the refrigerator
shortly before drinking.
Remember that wine should always
n
be cooled slightly lower than the ideal
serving temperature, as its
temperature increases by 1 to 2
as soon as it is poured into a glass!
