RECOMMENDATIONS

• COSMO wine cellars are front venting but are not designed to be fully
integrated behind a joinery door.

• COSMO wine cellars draw air from right of ventilation frame V 110 from the rear
and expel through left of ventilation frame under the front door.

• COSMO wine cellars have a power switch located on the control panel so
power point location is not critical.

• The power cord is (78.5 “/ 2.0m) in length and is fixed on the right side at the
back when looking from front of cabinet.

• As with most appliances of today, the wine cellar has sensitive electronic
components which are susceptible to damage through lightning and
electricity supply faults. It is therefore advised to use a power surge protector
to avoid problems of this nature.

• Air vent on door must be provided for built-in wine cellars when a wood door
installed.

• In Hot climate zone, an air vent or grid, with a minimum ventilation size of
7” x 1.57” MUST be cut out at the rear top of the back partitioning or at the top of
either side of the partitioning, allowing cool fresh air full access to flow into the
1 inch gap located at the rear of the cabinet. This air vent or grid must not be
opened on the same side as other appliances such as ovens or an area that is
sealed and without access to fresh cool air.

Failing to comply with the above specifications could result in WARRANTY void.

BEFORE LOADING & PLUGGING IN THE WINE CELLAR

Allow 24 hours before switching on the wine cellar.

During this time we recommend that you leave the door open to clear any

residual odors.

Important: All models without front venting (air opening) are strictly for free
standing only. (See technical chart)

RECOMMENDATIONS:

The location you have selected for your wine cellar should:

• Be unencumbered and well ventilated.

• Be well away from any heat source and direct sunlight.

• Not be too damp (laundry, pantry, bathroom etc.).

• Have a flat floor.

• Have a standard and reliable electricity supply (standard socket to country
standards, linked to the ground), it is NOT recommended to use a multi-sock­et or extension lead.

• Have a surge protector fitted to the electrical outlet.

• Away from the microwave oven. Certain microwave ovens do not have
wave interference shield. When placed within 1 meter vicinity of the wine
cabinet, they may affect the operation of the wine cabinet.

COSMO wine cellar should be placed where the ambient temperature is proper.
If the temperature is above or below this range, it will affect the performance of
the cellar. Placing in cold or hot temperature conditions may cause cellar’s tem­peratures fluctuating, and it will not reach the ideal one.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS:

COSMO wine cellar must be grounded in case of wire leakage. Grounding re­duces the risk of electrical shock. The wine cellar is equipped with a power cord
having a grounding wire and plug. The wine cellar plug must be plugged into a
properly affixed and grounded electrical outlet.

Note: In locations where there is frequent lightning, it is advisable to use surge
protectors. Improper use of the grounding plug can result in the risk of electric
shock. Consult a qualified electrician or service person if the grounding instruc­tions are not completely understood.

If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a qualified person in order
to avoid electrical hazard.
