INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

 BEFORE USING YOUR WINE CHILLER

• Remove the exterior and interior packing. Read the Installer’s Directions.

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

• 6 Burgundy Bottle Shelves

• 7 Standard Bottle Shelves

• 1 Small Bottom Shelf

• 2 Keys

• 1 Stainless Steel Handle Assembly with 2 Screws, 2 Flat Washers and 2 Lock Washers

• 1 Door Lower Hinge Bracket for Door Opening from the Right Side

• 1 Instruction Manual

• Before connecting the Wine Chiller 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.

• Install the handle on the left side of the door.

 INSTALLATION OF YOUR WINE CHILLER

• This appliance is designed to be free standing or recessed with a minimum clearance of ¼ inch on each side and 1 inch at the back.

• This appliance is not designed for built-in installation (zero clearances).

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

level your Wine Chiller, adjust the front le ve ling legs at the bottom of the Wine Chiller.

• Locate the Wine Chiller 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 Wine Chiller 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 s ervic e center .

Warning

 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-pron g plug whic h mates with standard three pron g wall outlets to m inimize th e possibility of electrical shock.

Do not under an y circumstances c ut or rem ove the third gro und prong f rom the power c ord supplied. For personal safety, this appliance must be properly grounded.

This appliance requir es a standard 115/ 120 Volt AC ~/60Hz elec trical ground o utlet with thre e-prong. Have the wall outlet and circuit check ed by a qualified electr ician to make sur e the outlet is properl y grounded. When a s tandar d 2-prong wall outlet is encount ered, it is your respons ibility and oblig ation 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 shoul d always be plugged i nto its own individual electrical outlet which has a voltage rating that matches the rating label on the appl iance. This provides the best p erformance and also prevent overloading house wiring circuits that could cause a fire hazard from overheated. Never unplug the applianc e b y pulling th e po wer cord. Alwa ys grip t he plug f irm ly and pull s traight out fr om the receptacle. Repair or replace immediatel y all power cords that ha ve become fra yed or otherwise damaged. Do not use a cor d that shows crack s or abrasion dam age along its len gth or at either end. When moving the appliance, be careful not to damage the power cord.

 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-Lis t ed, 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.

 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.
