Exclusive features.


The interiors of all appliances are entirely clad in stainless steel. The material is hygienic, and in combination with oxygen, also neutralizes odors. LED light pillars supply bright lighting; they are particularly economical and generate no heat at all.


The shelves in hardened safety glass can be manually and some motor-adjusted, even when fully loaded. The drawers are fully extendable. All appliances in the series are equipped with No-Frost technology, thus dispensing with the tiresome chore of defrosting and preventing ice forming on frozen produce. Ultra convenience is offered by the refrigerators with an integrated fresh cooling zone close to 0 °C, which keep seven delicate food items fresh for twice as long as in traditional cooling systems.



Decisive details.


In addition to the exclusive LED lighting, the Vario cooling 400 series offers further assets, like its exceptionally durable aluminum door racks which are machined with millimeter precision and fitted by hand. The bottom door rack in the RB/RY 492 fridge-freezer combination, for instance, has a loadbearing volume up to 25 kg. Heavy-duty hinges allow a door opening angle of 115 degrees for convenient access to the interior. They also ensure that heavy furniture fronts are reliably secured for decades of service. The appliances can be customized with door fronts in stainless-steel or aluminum as a special accessory. At a height of 213.4 cm the fully integrated appliances in the series can be built in with doors hinged on the right or left. With its professional cooling and storage technology and iconic design, the Gaggenau Vario cooling 400 series sets new standards in function and beauty.

With widths of 45.7 cm and 61 cm, and doors hinged on the right or left, the wine climate cabinets can be fully integrated or fitted with a glass door. Both wine climate cabinets are rated in energy efficiency class B. The two separate climate zones are precision-controlled for temperatures of +5 °C to +20 °C which are reliably maintained at a constant level. Humidity levels can be controlled individually. The ventilation system allows air to circulate once it has passed through an antibacterial active carbon filter which absorbs and locks in odor particles. The appliance interior thus always remains odour-free. A glass door with UV protection prevents undesirable aromas caused by exposure to daylight. Thanks to the cushioned compressor suspension, wines are stored virtually free of any vibrations.


Up to 99 standard bottles, including even magnum-size bottles can be accommodated.


The ten fully extendable aluminum bottle trays with rounded beech rods protect fragile wine labels. Integrated LED lighting ensures bright interiors, and can be switched on or off in the various zones, either separately or for all zones. Both climate zones also feature a presentation light for showcasing fine wines.


Appropriate special accessories are available for professional storage of open bottles and decanters. Perfectly chambréd wine can therefore be served at any time.
