Electrical Information

The wine cooler must be plugged into its own dedicated 115 Volt, 60 Hz., 15 Amp, AC only electrical outlet. The power cord of

the appliance isequipped with a three-prong grounding plug for your protection against

electrical shock hazards, tt must be plugged directly into a properly grounded three prong

receptacle. The receptacle must be installed in

accordance with local codes and ordinances. Consult a qualified electrician. Avoid connecting

refrigerator to a Ground Fault tnterruptor (GFT)

circuit. Do not use an extension cord or

. adapterplug.

If the power cord is damaged, it should be replaced by an authorized service technician to prevent any risk.

o Never unplug the wine cooler by pulling on the

power cord. Always grip the plug firmly, and pull straight out from the receptacle to prevent

damaging the power cord.

Unplug the wine cooler before cleaning and before replacing a light bulb to avoid electrical shock.

Performance may be affected if the voltage varies by 10% or more. Operating the wine cooler with

insufficient power can damage the compressor.

Child Safety

Destroy carton, plastic bags, and any exterior wrapping material immediately after the wine cooler is unpacked. Children should never use

these items to play. Cartons covered with rugs,

bedspreads, plastic sheets or stretch wrap may become airtight chambers, and can quickly cause

suffocation.

• Remove all staples from the carton. Staples can cause severe cuts, and destroy finishes if they come in contact with other appliances or furniture.

• An empty, discarded wine cooler is a very dangerous attraction to children.

• Remove the door(s) of any appliance that is not in use, even if it is being discarded.

the past. Junked or abandoned wine coolers are still

dangerous - even if they will sit for "just a few days': If you are getting rid of your old wine cooler, please

follow the instructions below to help prevent accidents.

We strongly encourage responsible appliance recycling/ disposal methods. Check with your utility company or

visit www.recyclemyoldfridge.com for more information

on recycling your old wine cooler. Before you throw away your old wine cooler"

climb inside.

technician.

Power cord with 3-prong grounded plug

This Use & Care Guide provides general operating instructions for your model. Use the appliance only as instructed in this Use & Care Guide. Before starting the

wine cooler, follow these important first steps,

Location

o Choose a place that is near a grounded electrical

outlet. Do Not use an extension cord or an adapter

plug.

For optimal performance, it is recommended that you install the wine cooler where the ambient temperature is between 70 and 78 degrees

fahrenheit.

- Allow space around the unit for good air circulation. Leave a 2 inch space on the back and sides of the

wine cooler for adequate circulation.

- Be sure the wine cooler stays in the upright position

during transport.

- Keep the wine cooler from any hazardous or

combustible agents.

The exterior walls of the wine cooler may become quite warm as the compressor works to transfer heat from

the inside. Temperatures as much as 30° F warmer than room temperature can be expected. For this

reason it is particularly important in hotter climates to allow enough space for air circulation around your wine cooler.

Cleaning

Wash any removable parts of the wine cooler interior and exterior with mild detergent and warm water. Wipe dry. Do not use harsh cleaners on these

surfaces.

Do not use razor blades or other sharp instruments,

which can scratch the appliance surface when

removing adhesive labels. Any glue left from the tape

can be removed with a mixture of warm water and

mild detergent, or touch the residue with the sticky side of tape already removed. Do not remove the serial plate.

Important Safeguards: Do not store food in your wine cooler as interior temperature may not get cool enough to prevent spoilage. [n summer months or areas of high

humidity, the glass door may build up moisture. To

remove the moisture, wipe it away.

Handle Installation

1. Set handle over the two mounting studs at top of door.

2. Use hex head screw driver or allen wrench to tighten set screws from bottom to secure handle to door.

Mounting stud

Locate handle

Leveling

The wine cooler must have all bottom corners resting firmly on solid floor. The floor must be strong enough to support a fully loaded wine cooler. NOTE: It is Very Important for your wine cooler to be level in order to function properly. If the wine cooler is not leveled during installation, the door may be misaligned and not close or seal properly, causing cooling, frost, or moisture problems.

To Level Your Wine Cooler"

After removing all interior and exterior packaging materials, use a carpenter's level to level the wine cooler from front-to-back. Adjust the leveling legs in front, 1/2 bubble higher, so that the door closes easily when left

halfway open.
