Important Safety Instructions
General Safety Precautions
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, serious injury or death when installing and using your wine cooler or beverage center, follow
basic safety precautions, including the following:
WARNING
If you receive a damaged product, immediately contact your dealer or builder. • Do not install or use a damaged appliance.
Make sure that this appliance has been properly installed by a qualified installer according to the accompanying installation •
instructions. Have the installer show you the location of the electrical outlet so that you know where and how to disconnect power.
To prevent personal injury, property damage or damage to the unit, this appliance should only be unpacked and set up by two •
people according to the accompanying installation instructions.
Keep packaging materials away from children. Plastic sheets and bags can cause suffocation. •
Connect this appliance to a 11• 5 Vac, 15 Amp. circuit that is controlled by a circuit breaker or fuse. This appliance should have its
own separate grounded circuit.
Do not install, repair or replace any part of the appliance unless specifically recommended in the literature accompanying it. A •
qualified service technician should perform all other service.
Before performing any type of service, disconnect the • unit from electric power.
Use this appliance only for its intended purpose, the storage of wine and beverage products. It is not intended for commercial •
use.
Never allow anyone, including children to sit, stand or climb on any part of the appliance, including the door. Doing so may cause •
damage, serious injury or death.
Do not tamper with the controls.•
If “• F0” or “F1” appears on the display, a fault has occurred. Unplug the appliance and contact Dacor customer service.
CAUTION
To protect the appliance from possible damage, allow it to stand in place 1/2 to 1 hour after moving before turning the electricity •
on. Doing so allows the refrigerant and system lubrication to reach equilibrium.
In the event of a power outage, minimize opening the door. •
Do not allow the ventilation grill below the door to become obstructed. Make sure there is always good ventilation in front of the •
appliance.
When disconnecting the power cord, do not pull on the cable. Instead, grasp the plug and pull it out of the electrical outlet.•

Features
The right environment for your wines...
A vine is an extremely sensitive plant. Grape quality is dependent
on three factors: light, air humidity and ambient temperature. This
sensitivity continues even after the wine is bottled. To allow a
wine’s flavor to fully develop and to preserve the excellent aroma,
it has to be properly stored. Your wine cooler or beverage center
offers the best storage environment:
Wide temperature range: The unit has a wide temperature
adjustment range. It allows you to store wine at low temperature for superb aging or at a higher temperature for serving
wine lightly chilled. The temperature on beverage center
models can be set between 37 to 68°F (3 to 20°C) The temperature on wine cooler models can be set between 41 to
68°F (5 to 20°C).
Wine cellar simulation: The fan on your wine cooler or
beverage center allows you to simulate the humid conditions
inside a wine cellar. High humidity prevents bottle corks from
drying out.
High storage capacity: High storage capacity allows you to
preserve the flavor of your favorite wines. The wine cooler
models can store 56 750 mL bottles of wine. The beverage
center models can store 29 750 mL bottles of wine and 88
eight ounce beverage cans at the same time.
Rack Locations (see diagrams above)
Slide-out racks: Hold up to nine bottles of wine each
Beverage shelves: Hold up to 44 eight ounce cans each
