1. Read all of the instructions before using this appliance.

2. This wine cellar must be properly installed in accordance with the installation instructions before it is used. See grounding instructions in the installation section.

3. Never unplug your wine cellar by pulling on the power cord. Always grasp the plug firmly and pull straight out from the outlet.

4. Repair or replace immediately, all electric service cords that have become frayed or otherwise damaged. Do not use a cord that shows cracks or abrasion damage along its length, the plug or the connector end.

5. Unplug your wine cellar before cleaning or before making any repairs. Note: If for any reason this product requires service, we strongly recommend that a certified technician performs the service.

6. If your wine cellar is not being used, we recommend that you remove the door and leave the shelves in place. This will reduce the possibility of danger to children.

7. This wine cellar should not be recessed or built-in an enclosed cabinet. It is designed for freestanding installation only.

8) Do not operate your wine cellar in the presence of explosive fumes.

9) Do not store foods in wine cellar as interior temperature may not be

cool enough to prevent spoilage.

INSTALLING YOUR WINE CELLAR

Unpacking Your Wine Cellar

1. Remove all packaging material. This includes the base and all adhesive tape

holding the wine cellar accessories inside and outside.

2. Inspect and remove any remains of packing, tape or printed materials before

powering on the wine cellar.

Proper Air Circulation

• To assure your wine cellar works at the maximum efficiency it was designed

for, you should install it in a location where there is proper air circulation and electrical connections.

• The following are recommended clearances around the wine cellar

Sides ..................... 2" (50mm)

Top .......................4" (100mm)

Back ......................2" (50mm)

• Do not over fill your wine cellar for proper internal air circulation.

NOTE: Allow enough space in the front of the unit to

open the door to 120˚.

English

Grounding Instructions

• Make sure there is a suitable power outlet (115V~60Hz 15A) with proper

grounding to power the wine cellar.

• Avoid the use of three plug adapters or cutting off the third grounding pin

in order to accommodate a two plug outlet. This is a dangerous practice since it provides no effective grounding for the wine cellar and may result

in shock hazard.

Use of Extension Cords

• Avoid the use of an extension cord because of potential safety hazards under

certain conditions. If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use only a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding plug and a 3-slot outlet that will accept the plug. The marked rating of the extension cord must be equal to or greater than the electrical rating of the appliance.

Installation Limitations

• Do not install your wine cellar in any location not properly insulated or heated

e.g. garage etc.

• Select a suitable location for the wine cellar on a hard even surface away from

direct sunlight or heat source e.g. radiators, baseboard heaters, cooking appliances etc. Any surface unevenness should be corrected with the leveling legs located on the front and rear bottom corners of the wine cellar. Avoid placing unit where there may be electrical interference.

• Your wine cellar is designed for free-standing installation only. It is not

designed for built-in application.

NOTE: To minimize the risk of rusting, leakage and insulation

damage, avoid placing the unit in a place where heavy moisture is present. Under no circumstances spill or directly apply water onto or into the unit.

WINE CELLAR FEATURES & USE

Plug in the wine cellar to power the unit on.

You can set the temperature of your wine cellar at any setting you desire. The

temperature will range from 46˚ to 64˚. When initially turned on, the LED will show the ambient. The LED will then display the internal temperature.

NOTE: The wine cellar control panel has an auto-lock feature to prevent children

from changing the temperature. The temperature control will automatically lock after 60 seconds. To unlock the temperature control, press the ( ) and ( ) at the same time until you hear a beep.

NOTE: White wine temperature is cooler than red wine temperature. By pressing the ( ) temperature button on the display you can increase the

temperature and pressing the ( ) temperature button will lower the temperature.

Your wine cellar also has a light for your viewing pleasure. A light switch on the

control panel will activate the cabinet light and front door LEDs manually. Under normal operation it is best for the light to remain off.

Please note that the actual cabinet temperature in a thermal electric unit is

dependent on the ambient temperature. You may set the cabinet temperature

within range but the unit may not reach the preset temperature. Press the Fº/Cº button to toggle between Celsius and Fahrenheit temperature

readings. For this model, when the ambient temperature is 77°, the lowest temperature

that can be reached is 50-52°. When ambient temperature is 73°, the cabinet temperature can reach approximately 46-48º.

NOTE: The display temperature is from 46º-64º. When the cooler is installed, if the ambient temperature is higher than 64º or lower than 46º, the display will show "-" until the cabinet has cooled down to 64º or warmed up to 46º. When the wine cooler is started, the temperature display will show the ambient temperature.

When the ambient temperature is below the pre-set temperature, the cellar will not operate until the ambient temperature increase to higher than the pre-set temperature.

Thermal Electric Cooling:

• Thermal Electric (also referred to as semiconductor) wine cellars do not use a

compressor and therefore create minimal noise and vibration. Besides being extremely quiet, the lack of vibration will prevent bubbles from forming in stored wine. In addition thermal electric units offer high reliability and low maintenance while precisely maintaining the preset temperature for storing wine. Thermal electric technology is environmentally friendly, as no CFC, HCFC, or HCF-type refrigerants are involved in the cooling process.

Shelving:

• The shelves are chrome plated for appearance and easy cleaning.
