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

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 to have a greater than
90° opening swing. A limited
door swing will prevent the
shelves from sliding out as
intended, and may lead to
damaging the door gasket.
• The rough cabinet opening
must be on a level floor area
and at least 26
deep* by 2 3
wide.The opening should also
have a height of at least 70
1/16” (178 cm).

Wine Storage
IMPORTANT!
• The maximum capacity of
the DWC408BLSST is 146
bottles.The upper zone will
hold a maximum of 66
bottles and the lower zone a
maximum of 80 bottles.
These capacities are based
on a standard 750ml
Bordeaux style bottles that
are 3” in diameter. The
actual capacity will be
dictated by the size and
shape of the bottles and
may be reduced depending
on these variables.
• Only store unopened, sealed
bottles in the unit.
Function
Instructions
Temperature Memory Function
• In the event of power loss the set temperature will be
saved by the unit. Once the power is back on the unit
will return the same set temperature.
Door Ajar Alarm Function
• If the door is not fully closed, there will be a warning
alarm after 5 minutes.
Temperature Alarm Function
• If inner temperature is higher than 73°F (23°C). The “HI”
is shown in display panel and the alarm will sound. It
informs you that the inner temperature is too high,
please check the reason why.
• If inner temperature is lower than 32°F (0°C), the “LO” is
shown in display panel and the alarm will sound as well
the malfunction indicator light will illuminate.
NOTE
If too many bottles are put in at
once or the door has not been
closed tightly, the unit will display
the "HI" signal at the display
panel.This is normal please wait for
a while after you close the door
and the “HI” will disappear.
It is normal that the cabinet shows
“HI” or “LO” between times, if it
occurs frequently or lasts for a long
time, you can restart the unit by
unplugging it. If the problem occurs
once again after restart, please
contact the customer service.
1. The upper zone
In order to achieve a maximum
capacity of 66 bottles the bottles
must be positioned alternately on
the upper six (6) shelves as shown
in Fig. D. This will allow for the
storage of 11 bottles per shelf on
each of the 6 shelves in this
chamber.
Alternatively, the spacing between
shelves is greater in the upper
zone and allows for the storage of
larger diameter bottles such as
Pinots and Burgundies with
diameters up to 3 5/8”. In order to
achieve the optimum storage the
bottles should be positioned alternately on the upper six shelves as
shown in Fig. C. This will allow for
the storage of up to 9 bottles per
shelf for a reduced capacity of 54
bottles in this zone.
2. The lower zone
In order to achieve the maximum
capacity of 80 bottles,it will be
necessary to position the bottles
alternately on the upper six(6)
shelves,as shown in Fig.D. This
will allow for the storage of eleven
(11) 750ml bottles per shelf on
each of the lower six (6) shelves.
The bottom two(2) shelves each
carry seven (7) 750ml bottles
when stocked according to Fig.E.
