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.

Storage

The *maximum capacity of the DWC276 is 27 (750ml) wine bottles.

*When stocked as per instructions and when the humidors are not in use.

In order to achieve the maximum storage capacity of twenty-seven (27) bottles, it will be necessary to position the bottles alternately on the upper six shelves, as shown in Fig A. This will allow for the storage of four (4) 750 ml bottles per rack in each of the top six shelves, and three (3) bottles on the bottom shelf for a total storage capacity of twenty-seven (27) wine bottles.

If humidity conditions are low, it will be necessary to use the humidor. Fill the humidor about 3/4 full with fresh water, and place the humidor on the bottom shelf, as show in Fig B. Check the water level occasionally and refill as necessary.

NOTE: The use of the ‘humdior’ will reduce the storage capacity of the bottom rack by one bottle.

Shelf Instructions

IMPORTANT!

Do not cover shelves with aluminum foil or any other material that will prevent adequate air circulation within the cabinet.

To remove a shelf from it’s locked position, tilt the shelf as shown in Fig C and pull outward.

To re-install, ensure the shelf is resting securely on the support brackets and push shelf inward until it locks into place.

Please Note: The bottom shelf of the cabinet is not secured in place (locked). Do

not attempt to pull on the shelf Fig C when either it is stocked with

wine and or when the humidor is filled with water.
