What to Do

1. Begin by ensuring proper installation and grounding of the appliance by a qualified technician according to the accompanying Installation Instructions. Have the installer show you where the fuse or junction box is located so that you know how and where to turn off power.

2. Ensure that the appliance is used only by those individuals who are able to operate it properly.

3. Use the appliance only for tasks expected at home as outlined in this manual.

4. Properly clean and maintain the appliance as recommended in this manual.

5. Clean only those parts listed in this manual.

Risk of Child Entrapment

WARNING:

Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems of the past. Junked or abandoned refrigeration products are still dangerous…even if they will sit for “just a few days.” If you are getting rid of your old appliance, please follow these instructions to help prevent accidents.

Before You Throw Away Your Old Refrigeration Product:

• Take off the door.

• Leave the shelves in place so that children may not easily climb inside.

Refrigerants

All refrigeration products contain refrigerants, which under federal law must be removed prior to product disposal.

If you are getting rid of an old refrigeration product, check with the company handling the disposal about what to do.

Purpose of This Manual

This Use & Care Manual is designed to enable you to properly operate and maintain your new Dacor appliance. Please keep this manual handy for easy access and quick reference.

Additional information may be requested by e-mailing, writing or phoning the DACOR Customer Service Department. The address and phone number of this department are listed on the inside front cover of this manual.

The operating temperatures of the appliance range from the low forties to the mid fifties.

Do not install the appliance where the temperature will go below 55°F (13°C) or above 90°F (32°C).

NOTES:

As with any refrigeration product, there is a slight temperature variance at different locations within the cabinet.

Temperatures at the bottom of the cabinet will be cooler than temperatures at the top of the cabinet.

Position your wine inventory accordingly (i.e. white wines in the cooler zones and red in the warmer zones).

When the temperature is adjusted, allow 24 hours for the unit to stabilize.

Beverage Cooler To set the control, turn it to the midpoint setting

(approximately 45ºF). Once the beverage cooler is loaded, allow at least 24 hours before making any adjustments to the initial setting.

The interior light makes it easy to view your wine/beverage labels and enhances the display of your collection.

When the switch is in the OFF position, the light comes on only when the door is opened. When the switch is in the ON position, the light remains on continuously for your maximum viewing pleasure. For best viewing do not store a bottle on the top shelf directly under the light. Remember to turn off the light when it is no longer needed.

Glass Shelves

Tempered glass shelves in the beverage cooler unit are removable for easy cleaning or for storing larger items.

To remove a shelf, open the door completely to avoid potential damage to the gasket. Lift up on the back of the shelf slightly. Tilt the shelf to one side at an angle while pulling forward.

To replace a shelf, open the door completely to avoid potential damage to the gasket. Tilt the shelf to one side at an angle and slide toward the back wall, placing one side onto the shelf support. Place the other side onto the opposite shelf support. Ensure rear locking tabs are engaged. When installed properly, the shelf will not slide forward when gently pulled.

Place in slots when replacing the shelf

The upper full extension slide can be removed for magnums or larger bottles.

To remove:

1. Pull the full extension drawer out to the STOP position.

2. Push the tab on right drawer guide down while pulling the tab on left guide up, and pull the drawer out.

To replace:

1. Push the drawer slide arm back into the unit.
