Before Using Your Wine Cooler
Remove the exterior and interior packing.
Check to be sure you have all of the following parts:
5 Shelves
1 Bottle/Can Basket
1 Instruction Manual
Before connecting the Wine Cooler to the power source, let it stand upright for
approximately 2 hours. This will reduce the possibility of a malfunction in the
cooling system from handling during transportation.
Clean the interior surface with lukewarm water using a soft cloth.
Installation of Your Wine Cooler
Place your Wine Cooler on a floor that is strong enough to support it when it is
fully loaded. To level your Wine Cooler, adjust the adjustable legs at the
bottom of the unit.
Allow 3cm of space between the back and sides of the unit, which allows the
proper air circulation to cool the compressor.
Locate the Wine Cooler away from direct sunlight and sources of heat (stove,
heater, radiator, etc.). Direct sunlight may affect the acrylic coating and heat
sources may increase electrical consumption. Extreme cold ambient
temperatures may also cause the unit not to perform properly.
Avoid locating the unit in moist areas.
Plug the Wine Cooler into an exclusive, properly installed-earthed wall outlet.
Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the third (earth) prong from the
power cord. Any questions concerning power and/or earthing should be
directed toward a certified electrician.
After plugging the appliance into a wall outlet, allow the unit to cool down for
2-3 hours before placing items in the compartment.
-7-
The wine cooler should be placed in dry and ventilated room. The location of
the wine cooler should not be placed in direct sunshine. The wine cooler
should be far away from heating sources, such as: cooking stove or heating
radiator. If the wine cooler has to be placed near heating source, please adopt
proper heating insulation board for insulation or keep the wine cooler at least
the following minimum distances away from the heating sources:
For electric stove: 3 cm. For
To ensure proper ventilation for your wine cooler, allow for 3cm space on each
side between walls, 3cm space between back of your wine cooler and the wall,
and 3cm space between counter top and the roof or ceiling.
oil or coal stove: 30 cm.
Notice
If the room temperature is lower than +16°C, the wine cooler may not be able
to work normally, because if the room temperature is too low, the temperature
sensitive goods might be damaged.
If the room temperature and humidity is too high, the glass door of the wine
cooler may have condensation.
Connect Wine Cooler with Power Source
Warning
Improper use of the earthed plug can result in the risk of electrical shock. If the supply cord is
damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified persons
in order to avoid a hazard.
After placing the wine cooler, please wait for at least two hours before the
wine cooler can be operated. This is because the engine oil in the compressor
may flow into the cooling system during the transportation process.
Before the first running, please clean the inside chambers of the wine cooler
(Please see the section on cleaning).
The power socket should be reachable. The wine cooler should be connected
with 220-240V/50Hz AC power.

Indication of Temperature in Lower Zone
: Press this button once and the temperature will increase 1°C.
: Press this button once and the temperature will decrease 1°C.
Indication of Temperature in Upper Zone
: Press this button once and the temperature will increase 1°C.
: Press this button once and the temperature will decrease 1°C.
: Temperature display.
LIGHT: Lighting button for LED lamp; it controls the on/off of lamp.
POWER: On/off button used to turn on/off the wine cooler.
Press LIGHT and POWER together for 2 seconds and you can convert
between Fahrenheit temperature and Celsius temperature.
Notice!
The upper zone temperature range is 5~14°C, the lower zone
temperature range is 10~18°C. The default temperature is both 10°C,
and the temperature after power failure will be the temperature set before
the power failure.
To extend the service life of compressor, please wait for at least 5 minutes
before starting the wine cooler after power failure.
Failure display
If there is failure on the sensor, the screen may display a failure code, such
as: E and F. When the screen displays these errors, please do not
disassemble unit. You should contact local after-sales service personnel
for repair.
If the temperature in the cooler is too low, it will display “L”.
When the temperature in the cooler is too high, the screen will display “H”
and will flash; under this state, the buzzer will buzz once every second for 30
seconds; one minute later, the buzzer will continue to alarm for the next 30
seconds; after the alarm has activated for three times, it will not sound. You
- 13 -
can press any key to cancel sound alarm.
When you put a lot of wine together in the cooler, the temperature in the
cooler may rise temporarily.
Hints for Operation
In the operation of compressor, the back wall of the chilling chamber will form
ice or frost. You do not need to defrost or wipe off water drops because the
back wall is able to defrost automatically. The defrosted water will be collected
in to the discharge channel and the water will flow to the water receiver above
the compressor and will be vaporized there.
When there is too much frost at the back of inner side of cabinet, pls turn off the power until the
defrosting is finished.
Placement of Wine Bottle
When you place the Wine bottles, please note:
●The capacity for bottle storage in the wine cabinet is based on the following marked bottle
size. Oversized bottle may have an impact on the number of bottle storage in the wine cabinet.
To maintain the perfect air ventilation in the wine cooler, the bottle should
not touch the back wall of the chilling chamber.
The number of bottles might be different for different bottles with different
shapes and sizes.
Because some space is occupied by the compressor, the lower part of the
wine cooler is comparatively low and it can be used to place cans or short
wine bottles.
-14-
Effective Cubage
Please see the model nameplate on the wine cooler for the description on
effective cubage.
Temperature Area in Chilling Cabinet
Due to the air circulation in the wine cooler, some areas with different
temperatures are generated:
The upper area has the lowest temperature
The lower area has the highest temperature
Placement of Wine cooler
Please store different wines according to the following sequence from up to
down:
Strong red wine
Rose wine and gentle red wine
White wine
Champagne and light sparkling wine
Practical Skills for Storage of Wine
The bottled wine should not be stored in the chilling chamber in a whole
case or box.
When old bottles are placed in the wine cooler, please make sure that the
bottle cork is moist. Do not leave space between the wine and the bottle
cork.
Before you drink the wine, allow the wine to “breathe” with the top removed:
For example, you can place the rose wine or red wine on the table
respectively 2-5 hours or 4-5 hours before you drink, for a proper drinking
temperature. On the contrary, white wine can be placed on the table
directly from the
cooler. The Champagne should be stored in the wine
cooler until you want to drink.
Please make sure that the temperature of the wine is always lower than
- 15 -
the ideal drinking temperature because when you pour the wine into glass,
the temperature of the wine will increase 1 - 2°C immediately!
Drinking Temperature
The correct temperature of pouring wine determines the smell of wine, as well
as the taste of wine.
We recommend you pour wines into glass at the following drinking
temperatures:
Wine Type Drinking Temperature
Bordeaux red 18°C
Côtes du Rhône red/Barolo
Burgundy red/Bordeaux red
17°C
16°C
Port 15°C
