6.  Bottles seem colder than display temperature. In case the temperature displayed by the controller does not correspond exactly with the indication of another probe (you trust), we allow for a +/- 4 ºF calibration.

NOTE: Compare to the liquid temperature only. The temperature varies according to the position of wine bottles in your cellar. click here
