Lighting mode adjustment
Your wine cabinet has mood lighting that also enables you to read your wine labels more easily.
Unlike standard lighting, KitchenAid lighting does not produce ultraviolet rays, and only gives off a
miniscule amount of heat.
Thus, your wines are preserved in total safety
Electrical consumption less than 7 watts / hour in constant use.
Usage precautions:
• Intense light, never look directly into the beam.
• There are 3 possible lighting settings:
- lighting disabled,
- lighting when door opens (it goes out when the door is closed),
- lighting all the time (for mood lighting when using a glass door cabinet, for example).
