IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING

Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock.

This appliance must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current.

This appliance is equipped with a power cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded.

Consult a qualified electrician or service technician if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt exists as to whether the appliance is properly grounded.

If the outlet is a standard 2- prong wall outlet, it is your personal responsibility and obligation to have it replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong wall outlet.

For best operation, plug this appliance into its own electrical outlet to prevent flickering of lights, blowing of fuse or tripping of circuit breaker.

Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord.

Do not use an adapter plug with this appliance.

Do not use an extension cord with this appliance. If the power cord is too short, have a qualified electrician or service technician install an outlet near the appliance.

Setting the

Temperature

When you plug in your wine cooler for the first time, the temperatures will automatically be set to 45°F (7°C) and 54°F (12°C) in the left and right compartments respectively and will be displayed in the Fahrenheit scale (°F).

To switch the display between the Fahrenheit (°F) and Celsius (°C) scale, depress the UP and DOWN control buttons simultaneously for approximately five (5) seconds

The temperature range for both compartments can be set as low as 39°F (4°C) or as high as 64°F (18°C) to suit your specific wine storage requirements. Each depression of the UP or DOWN button will allow you adjust the temperature in 1° degree increments within the aforementioned range.

You may view your ‘set’ temperature at any time by briefly depressing either the ‘UP’ or ‘DOWN’ button. The set temperature will flash in the display area for 5 seconds before the display resumes showing the current cabinet temperature.

Preparing the

Enclosure

Electrical Requirements:

The appliance must be connected to an individual properly grounded electrical outlet, protected by a 15 or 20 ampere circuit breaker or time delay fuse.

It is recommended that you do not install the wine cooler into a corner (i.e. directly beside a wall). This is to allow the door(s) to have a greater then 90° opening swing. A limited door swing will prevent the shelves from sliding out as intended, and may lead to damaging the door gasket(s).

The rough cabinet opening must be on a level floor area and at least 24” deep* by 24” wide. The opening should also have a height of at least 34-1/2”.

The electrical outlet may be positioned from within either side of the adjacent cabinetry, or the rear of the shaded area (as shown in Fig C.).

Important: If the electrical outlet is surface mounted (not flush) within the enclosure, the depth requirment for the installation may be affected.

If the electrical outlet is located inside the adjacent cabinetry, cut a 1-1/2” diameter hole to admit the power cord.
