Maintenance Tips

• Keep interior clean: Periodically wipe shelves and interior walls with a soft cloth and mild detergent; dry fully before restocking.

• Defrost if needed: Although it has automatic defrost, clear any excessive frost to help airflow and cooling.

• Maintain consistent temp: Set the digital control to the ideal range (40–65 °F) and avoid frequent door openings to minimize temperature swings.

• Clean the condenser area: Gently vacuum or brush dust from the rear vents/coils occasionally to improve efficiency.

• Gasket care: Wipe the door gasket with a damp cloth to keep a tight seal and prevent energy loss.

• Protect the glass door: Clean the tempered glass with a non‑abrasive cloth to view your wine without scratching.

• Organize bottles for airflow: Place bottles so cold air circulates well; avoid packing too tightly.

• Check fan and filter: Ensure the built‑in fan and charcoal filter stay unobstructed to maintain even cooling and reduce odors.

• Service issues professionally: For cooling irregularities or noises, contact authorized Avanti service.
