SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
ATTENTION
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. In
the event of an electrical short circuit,
grounding reduces the risk of electrical shock by providing
an escape wire for the electrical current. This appliance is
equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a
grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet
that is properly installed and grounded.
WARNING - Improper use of the
grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock.
Consult a qualified electrician or serviceman if the
grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if
the doubt exists as to whether the appliance is properly
grounded.
DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD
Use an exclusive wall outlet. Do not connect your wine
cooler to extension cords or together with any other
appliance in the same wall outlet. Do not splice the cord.
IMPORTANT WARNING
An empty wine cooler is a very dangerous attraction to
children. Remove either the gasket, latches, lids or doors
from unused appliances, or take some other action that
will guarantee it harmless.
DON’T WAIT! DO IT NOW!
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Remove the exterior and interior packings, wipe the outside
thoroughly with a soft dry cloth and the inside with a wet,
lukewarm cloth. Avoid placing the cabinet in a narrow recess or
near any heat source, direct sunlight, or moisture. Let air
circulate freely around the cabinet. Keep the rear of the wine
cooler 5 inches away from the wall.
Location
1. Select a place with a strong, level floor.
2. Allow 5 inches of space between the back of the wine cooler
and any adjacent wall.
3. Avoid direct sunlight and heat. Direct sunlight may affect the
acrylic coating. Heat sources nearby will cause higher
electricity consumption.
OPERATION
To avoid vibration, the cabinet must be set level. To start the
wine cooler, turn the temperature control to the position
corresponding to the desired cooling. The wine cooler
temperature will vary depending on the quantity of bottles stored
and on the frequency with which the door is opened.
Turn the control to the “OFF” position to temporarily disconnect
the cooling cycle. When the wine cooler is not to be used for a
long period of time, disconnect the plug and leave the door
partially open.
NOTE: Wait 3 to 5 minutes before restarting if operation has
been interrupted.
Defrosting
Your wine cooler is designed with an “Auto-Cycle” defrost
system. What is Auto Cycle defrost?
The refrigerated surfaces of the fresh food compartment defrost
a u t o m a t i c a l l y, during the “off” cycle of the cold control.
(thermostat) Defrost water from the fresh food compartment is
disposed of automatically, by means of being channeled onto a
drip tray located on the compressor. Heat transfer from the
compressor causes the defrost water to evaporate.

CARE & MAINTENANCE
Cleaning
To clean the inside, use a soft cloth and a solution of a
tablespoon of baking soda to one quart of water, or a mild soap
suds solution, or some mild detergent. Wash glide out shelves
in a mild detergent solution, then dry and wipe with a soft cloth.
Clean the outside with a soft damp cloth and some mild
detergent or appliance cleaner.
Vacation Time
For short vacation periods, leave the control knobs at their usual
settings. During longer absences,
(a) remove bottles,
(b) disconnect from electrical outlet,
(c) clean the wine cooler thoroughly,
(d) leave door open to avoid possible formations of condensate,
mold or odors.
Some Important Rules for the Correct Use
of the Wine Cooler
• Beverages should be stored in sealed bottles.
• Don’t overload the cabinet.
• Don’t open the door unless necessary.
• Should the wine cooler be stored without use for long periods
it is suggested, after a careful cleaning, to leave the door ajar
to allow the air to circulate inside the cabinet in order to avoid
possible formations of condensate, mold or odors.
• DO NOT cover shelves with aluminum foil or any other shelf
covering material which may prevent air circulation.
Recommended Temperatures for Chilling Wine
Dry Wines: 9˚C / 48.2˚F - 14˚C / 57.2˚F
Rosé Wines: 10˚C / 50˚F
Red Wines: 13˚C / 55.4˚F - 14˚C / 57.2˚F
Sparkling Wines: 9˚C / 48.2˚F
Power Failure
Most power failures are corrected within an hour or two and will
not affect your wine cooler temperatures. However, you should
minimize the number of door openings while the power is off .
During power failures of longer duration, take steps to protect
your wine.
If You Move
Remove or securely fasten down all loose items inside the wine
cooler. To avoid damaging the leveling screws, turn them all the
way into the base.

• 1 flat type (regular) refrigerator shelf
