Ø BEFORE USING YOUR APPLIANCE

• Remove the exterior and interior packing.

• Check to be sure you have all of the following parts:

1 Wire Wine Bottle Shelf 1 Wire Shelf (Full Shelf) 1 Wire Shelf (Half Shelf) 1 Bottle Stacking Assembly

• Before connecting this appliance to the power source, let it stand upright for approximately 2

hours. This will reduce the possibility of a malfunction in the cooling system from handling during transportation.

• Clean the interior surface with lukewarm water using a soft cloth.

Ø INSTALLATION OF YOUR APPLIANCE

• THIS APPLIANCE IS DESIGNED TO BE FOR FREE STANDING INSTALLATION ONLY.

• ALLOW 4” INCHES OF SPACE BETWEEN THE TOP AND SIDES OF THE UNIT AND A

MINIMUM OF 4” INCHES AT THE REAR, WHICH ALLOWS THE PROPER AIR CIRCULATION TO COOL THE COMPRESSOR.

• Place your appliance on a floor that is strong enough to support it when it is fully loaded. To

level your appliance, adjust the front leveling legs at the bottom of the appliance.

• Locate the appliance away from direct sunlight and sources of heat (stove, heater, radiator,

etc.). Direct sunlight may affect the acrylic coating and heat sources may increase electrical consumption. Extreme cold ambient temperatures may also cause the unit not to perform properly.

• Avoid locating the unit in moist areas.

• Plug the appliance into an exclusive, properly installed-grounded wall outlet. Do not under

any circumstances cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord. Any questions concerning power and/or grounding should be directed toward a certified electrician or an authorized Avanti Products service center.

Ø ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

Improper use of the grounded plug can result in the risk of electrical shock. If the power cord is damaged, have it replaced by an authorized Avanti Products service center.

This appliance should be properly grounded for your safety. The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a three-prong plug which mates with standard three prong wall outlets to minimize the possibility of electrical shock.

Do not under any circ umstanc es cut or re move the thir d ground pr ong from t he power c ord su pplied. For personal safety, this appliance must be properly grounded.

This appliance requires a standard 115/120 Volt AC ~/60Hz electrical ground outlet with three-prong. Have the wall outlet an d circuit c hecked by a qu alified electrician to mak e sure the outl et is prop erly gr ounded. When a standard 2-prong wall outlet is encountered, it is your responsibility and obligation to have it replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong wall outlet.

The cord should be secured behind the appliance and not left exposed or dangling to prevent accidental injury.

The appliance should alw a y s be plugged into its own individual e lectr ica l out let w hic h has a vol tag e r ati ng that matches the rating label on the appliance. This provides the best performance and also prevent overloading house wiring circuits that could cause a fire hazard from overheated. Never unplug the appliance by pulling the po wer c ord. Always grip th e plu g fir mly and pull str aig ht out from the r eceptac le. Repair or replace immediately all power cords that have become frayed or otherwise damaged. Do not use a cord that shows cracks or abrasion damage along its length or at either end. When moving the appliance, be careful not to damage the power cord.

Ø EXTENSION CORD Because of potential safety hazards under certain conditions, it is strongly recommended that you do not use an extension cord with this appliance. However, if you must use an extension cord it is absolutely necessary that it be a UL/CUL-Listed, 3-wire grounding type appliance extension cord having a grounding type plug and outlet and that the electrical rating of the cord be 115 volts and at least 10 amperes.

Ø SURGE PROTECTOR Most electrical appliances use a series of electric control boards to operate. These boards are very susceptible to power surges and could be damaged or destroyed.

If the appliance is going to be used in an area or if your city / country is prone to power surges / outages; it is suggested that you use a power surge protector for all electrical devices / appliances you use. The surge protector that you select must have a surge block high enough to protect the appliance it is connected to. If you have any questions regarding the type and size of surge protector needed contact a licensed electrician in your area.

Damages due to power surges are not considered a manufacturer covered defect and will void your product warranty.
