Setting The Temperature; Humidity - Miele KWT 2662 ViS Operating And Installation Instructions

Setting the temperature

 Touch the  sensor to set the
temperature.
The previously set temperatures for the
3 wine conditioning zones are
displayed.
 Use the  and  sensors to select
the wine conditioning zone for which
you want to adjust the temperature
and select OK to confirm your
selection.
 Use the  and  sensors to set the
temperature. Keeping your finger on
the sensor changes the temperature
continuously.
 Confirm the temperature setting
with OK or wait approx. 8 seconds
after the last touch of a sensor. The
temperature will then be adopted
automatically.
Useful tip: The newly set temperature
can also be confirmed and adopted by
closing the appliance door.
The temperature display always shows
the required temperature.
If you have adjusted the temperature,
wait for approx. 6 hours if the wine
conditioning unit is not very full and
for approx. 24 hours if the wine
conditioning unit is full before
checking the temperature. It will take
this long for an accurate reading to be
given.
 If, after this time, the temperature is
still too high or too low, adjust it
again.
The ideal temperature and humidity
Temperature range
In all three wine conditioning zones, it is
possible to set temperatures between
5 °C and 20 °C.

Humidity

In most refrigerators, the humidity is too
low for wine and therefore a refrigerator
is not suitable for wine storage. Higher
humidity levels are necessary when
storing wine to moisturise natural corks
from the outside. When the humidity is
too low, the natural corks dry out and
the bottle is no longer tightly sealed. For
this reason, wine bottles should always
be stored horizontally to ensure that
natural corks are also moisturised from
the inside. If air gets into the bottles,
this will have a negative impact on the
wine.
Useful tip: Humidity levels can be set
separately for each wine conditioning
zone. Always increase the humidity
level in a wine conditioning zone
whenever you are using it to store wine
bottles sealed with natural corks.

amounts of moisture.
An increase in humidity will lead to
condensation on the interior cabinet
walls. Condensate can cause
damage such as corrosion to the
wine conditioning unit.
Do not introduce additional moisture
to air in the cabinet, e.g. by placing a
dish of water in the wine conditioning
unit.
