INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Before Using Your Wine Cooler
Remove the exterior and interior packing,
including protective foam on door panels.
Check to be sure the following parts are
included:
o 6 slide out shelves o 2 wine rack o 1 user manual
Before connecting the 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.
Installation of Your Wine Cooler
Place your appliance on a floor that is
strong enough to support the appliance
when it is fully loaded. To level your
appliance, adjust the legs at the front of
the appliance.
Allow 5 inches of space between the back
and sides of the appliance, which allows
the proper air circulation to cool the
compressor.
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 appliance not to perform
properly.
Avoid locating the appliance in moist
areas. Too much moisture in the air will
cause frost to form quickly on the
evaporator.
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
products service center.
Warning: 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 products service center.

CANDY MECHANICAL
This specification concerns the function of the mechanical control for wine cellars. The image below shows the Candy version of the user interface.
The user interface is formed by:
- 1 knob for temperature setting
- 1 side button for the light
Function
Rotating the thermostat knob you can adjust the temperature of the wine cellar to the preset level.
SHELVES
Shelf 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.
WINE RACK
There is an additional wine rack at bottom section of the unit where you can store up to 6 wine bottles. This rack is removable for cleaning purpose.
There is a 4 to 6 C variance between the top and bottom shelves of the wine chiller. Therefore, if you have set the wine chiller for red wine only and you want to place a mix of white and red wines, you should place the white wine bottles on the bottom shelves and the red wines on the top shelves.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
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 liter of water.
Wash the shelves and trays 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

SCRAPPING OLD APPLIANCES
This appliance is marked according to the European directive 2012/19/EU on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE). WEEE contains both polluting substances (which can cause negative consequences for the environment) and basic components (which can be re-used). It is important to have WEEE subjected to specific treatments, in order to remove and dispose properly all pollutants, and recover and recycle all materials. Individuals can play an important role in ensuring that WEEE does not become an environmental issue; it is essential to follow some basic rules: WEEE should not be treated as household waste. WEEE should be handed over to the relevant collection points managed by the municipality or by registered companies. In many countries, for large WEEE, home collection could be present. In many countries, when you buy a new appliance, the old one may be returned to the retailer who has to collect it free of charge on a one-to-one basis, as long as the equipment is of equivalent type and has the same functions as the supplied equipment.
Conformity

ENERGY SAVING
For better energy saving we suggest:
Installing the appliance away from heat
sources and not exposed to direct sunlight and in a well-ventilated room.
Avoid putting hot food into the refrigerator
to avoid increasing the internal temperature and therefore causing continuous functionalizing of the compressor.
Do not excessively stuff foods so as to
ensure proper air circulation.
Defrost the appliance in case there is ice to
facilitate the transfer of cold.
In case of absence of electrical energy, it is
advisable to keep the refrigerator door closed.
Open or keep the doors of the appliance
open as little as possible.
Avoid adjusting the setting to temperatures
too cold.
Remove dust present on the rear of the
appliance.
