• Turn off the power, unplug the appliance, and remove all items including shelves and rack.
• Wash the inside surfaces with a warm water and baking soda solution. The solution should
be about two tablespoons of baking soda to one litre of water.

electrical parts.
• Wash the outside cabinet with warm water and mild liquid detergent. Rinse well and wipe
dry with a clean soft cloth.
Power Failure
• Most power failures are corrected within a few hours and should not affect the temperature of
your appliance if you minimise 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 action to protect the contents.

• Short vacations: Leave the wine cabinet operating during vacations of less than three weeks.
• Long vacations: If the wine cabinet will not be used for several months, remove all items and

• Tape the door shut.
• Be sure the appliance stays secure and upright during transportation. Also protect the

refrigerated surface of the wine cellar (interior rear wall) defrosts automatically. The defrost water is
channelled into a drain pan which is located at the back of the wine cellar next to the compressor
from where it evaporates.
HUMIDITY MAINTENANCE SYSTEM
The wine cellar is equipped with a system for maintaining the correct level of humidity. If humidity
is too low, insert the small plastic reservoir on to the top shelf. Fill this reservoir 3/4 full with water.
Check the water level occasionally and refill as necessary.
