IMPORTANT SAFEGUIDES
Before the Wine Cooler is used, it must be properly positioned and installed as
described in this manual, so read the manual carefully. To reduce the risk of fire,
electrical shock or injury when using the Wine Cooler, follow basic precautions,
including the following:
• Plug into a grounded 3-prong outlet, do not remove grounding prong, do not use an adapter, and
do not use an extension cord.
• It is recommended that a separate circuit, serving only your Wine Cooler be provided. Use
receptacles that cannot be turned off by a switch or pull chain.
• Never clean Wine Cooler parts with flammable fluids. These fumes can create a fire hazard or

this or any other appliance. The fumes can create a fire hazard or explosion.
• Before proceeding with cleaning and maintenance operations, make sure the power line of the

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING

shelves in place so that children may not easily climb inside.
• Never allow children to operate, play with, or crawl inside the appliance.
• Never clean appliance parts with flammable fluids. The fumes can create a fire
hazard or explosion.
• Do not store or use gasoline or any other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity
of this or any other appliance. The fumes can create a fire hazard or explosion.
• Do not repair or replace any part of the Wine Cooler or attempt any servicing unless
specifically recommended in the user-maintenance instructions or in published userrepair instructions. Replace the fuse with the same type.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Before Using Your Wine Cooler
• Remove the exterior and interior packing.
• Check to be sure you have all of the following parts:
• 2 Shelves (1 Large / 1 small)
• 1 Instruction Manual
• 1 warranty card
• Clean the interior surface with lukewarm water using a soft cloth.
Installation of Your Wine Cooler
• This Wine Cooler is designed to be free standing installation only, and should not be recessed or
built-in (Fully recessed).
• Place your Wine Cooler on a surface that is strong enough to support it when it is fully loaded.
• Allow 5 inches of space between the back and sides of the Wine Cooler, which allows the proper
air circulation to cool the heat sink.
• 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.
• This Wine Cooler uses compressor refrigeration technology and is not designed for storage in hot
areas like garages, warehouses or outdoors since it is designed to operate at a maximum of 30
degrees below the ambient temperature.
• Avoid locating the unit in moist areas.
• Plug the Wine Cooler into an exclusive, properly installed-grounded wall outlet. Do not under any
circumstances cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord. Any questions
concerning power and/or grounding should be directed toward a certified electrician or an
authorized service center.
• After plugging the Wine Cooler into a wall outlet, allow the unit to cool down for 2-3 hours before
placing any items in the compartment.
