Water collects at the bottom of the wine cooler or on shelves; excessive condensation is visible.

Safety: Unplug the unit before probing the drain or removing panels. Use only non-metallic tools to avoid damage.

De Dietrich wine coolers typically drain defrost water through a small hole to an evaporation tray.

• Locate the drain: Inside the cabinet, find the small drain hole at the rear of the lower liner.
• Clear blockage: Use a soft pipe cleaner or flexible plastic rod to gently clear any debris or mold from the drain hole. Do not use sharp metal objects.
• Check drain tube: From the rear, verify that the drain tube is properly connected and not kinked. Ensure it leads to the evaporator tray above the compressor.
• Inspect door seal: Look for gaps or damage in the gasket that could allow moist room air inside, increasing condensation. Replace the gasket if necessary.
• Control humidity: In very humid rooms, consider improving ventilation or using a dehumidifier to reduce moisture load.
