IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
Do not store food in wine cooler, as interior temperature may not get cool enough to prevent spoilage. As a natural result of condensation, in summer months or areas of high humidity, the glass door may cuiid up moisture on the outside. Just wipe it av/ay.
- OPERATING YOUR WINE COOLER
It is recommended you install the wine cooler in a place where the ambient temperature is bet-ween 72-78 degrees Fahrenheit, If the ambient temperature is above or below recommended temperatures,
the performance of the unit may be affected. For example, placing your unit in extreme cold or hot conditions may cause interior temperatures to fluctuate. The range of 45-65 degrees Fahrenheit may not be reached.
If the interior light is ieft on. the temperature inside the wine cooler will be higher. Recommended Temperatures for Chilling Wine
Red Wines: Dry/White Wines Sparkling Wines Rose Wines
The above temperatures may fluctuate depending on whether or not the interior bulb is on or off or
whether the bottles are located on the upper/middie or lower section.
HOW ТО USE the buttons on the display PANEL:
You can set the temperature as you desire by pushing the button or When you push the two buttons for the first time, the LED readout will show the original temperature set at previous time (the temperature preset at the factory is 50® F). The temperature that you desire to set will increase 1= F or
1 ’C if you push the once, on the contrary the temperature will decrease 1° F or 1 'C if you push the once.
When you store mostly red wines, the temperature which you control by pushing the above two buttons need to be set at between 60 to 65° F and the LED lamp beside “RED" will be lit red. When you store mostly white wines, the temperature need to be set at between 50 to 59° F and the LED lamp beside “WHITE” will be lit green. When you store mostly sparkling wines, the temperature need to be set at between 45 to 49° F and the LED lamp beside “SPARKLING" will be lit amber.
You can select temperature display setting from Fahrenheit to Celsius degrees by pushing the button marked F/C. Fahrenheit degrees indicator will appear in red color In the display marked F° and the Celsius degrees indicator will appear in yellow color in the display marked C".

60-65^ F 50-59^ F
45-49= F 49-51= F
WHITC ^
SPARKL ING ~
NOTE: When you use the wine cooler for the first time or restart the wine cooler after having been shut off for a long time, there could be a few degrees variance between the temperature you select and the one indicated on the LED readout. This is normal and it is due to the length of the activation time. Once the wine cooler is running for a few hours everything will be back to normal.
Also, there is a 6 to 8-' F variance between the top and bottom shelves of the wine chiller. Therefore, if you have set the wine chiller for red wine only and the temperature reads 60° F and you want to place a mix of white and red wines, you may want to place the white wine bottles on the bottom shelves and the red wines on the top shelves.

' SHELVES:

Shelving is chrome plated. To accommodate different size bottles, they can be moved up or down by sliding them out the tracks first. Shelves are designed to accommodate maximum amount of bottles. (See page 6)

^ DOOR LOCK:

For safety and security, your unit is equipped with a door lock and key. Door will not lock until the key is removed. This eliminates the risk of accidental child entrapment. Two keys are included with your lock.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

CHANGING THE LIGHT BULB

NOTE: All parts removed must be saved to do the replacement of the light bulb. Before removing the light bulb, either unplug the refrigerator or disconnect the electricity leading into the refrigerator at the main power supply. Failure to do so could result in electrical shock or personal injury.
Push the light switch ’‘OFF". Remove the light bulb cover (1) by pulling the bottom end of the light bulb cover gently. Unscrew the bulb (2). Replace with a 10 watt-refrigerator bulb that is the same shape and size. Replace the light bulb cover and tighten screw (1).
Note: Light bulb should not exceed 15 watts.

> Cleaning Your Wine Cooler

• Unplug the wine cooler and remove the bottles.
• Wash the inside with a warm water and baking soda solution. The solution should be about 2
tablespoons of baking soda to a quart of water.
• Wash the shelves with a mild detergent solution. ^ The outside of the wine cooler should be cleaned with mild detergent and warm water.
• it may also be necessary to periodically wipe the bottom part of the storage area, as the wine
cooler is designed to retain humidity, and condensation may collect there.

> Maintenance of Your Wine Cooler

• Power Failure
Most power failures are corrected within a few hours and should not affect the
temperature of your wine cooler if you minimize the number of times the door is opened.
If the power is going to be off for a longer period of time, you need to take the proper
steps to protect your contents.
