PROPER DISPOSAL OF YOUR OLD WINE CELLAR

WARNING

Suffocation Hazard

Remove doors from your old wine cellar.

Failure to do so can result in death or brain damage.

IMPORTANT: Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems of the past. Junked or abandoned wine cellars are still dangerous – even if they will sit for “just a few days.” If you are getting rid of your old wine cellar, please follow these instructions to help prevent accidents.

Before You Throw Away Your Old Wine Cellar:

 Take off the door.  Leave the racks in place so that children may not

easily climb inside.

1. Stealth Flush Design with

Smooth Close Door

Create an unbroken silhouette. Discreet 1/8" reveals envelop every side, without exposed hinges or trim pieces. Quiet, soft, secure. An articulating hinge discreetly ushers the door open and gently pulls it closed.

2. Daring Obsidian Interior

Inspired by volcanic glass, this dark ﬁnish erupts with reﬂective, high-contrast style. Let the object of your desire emerge like vibrant art, begging to be consumed.

3. UV-Resistant Thermal Glass

Let your tongue meet tannins. Double-paned glass helps ﬁlter out ultraviolet light and rejects temperature swings to sustain the body and ﬁnish you covet.

4. Marquee Lighting

Light up the night. Strips of LED lighting run vertically on either side of the cellar, illuminating each label so you can select a perfect pairing.

5. Precise Temperatures & Humidity

Unwavering conviction. Two temperature sensors in two zones keep the climate ﬁrmly within your control, while a single humidity sensor monitors quietly in the background for long term wine storage.

Important information to know about disposal of refrigerants:

Dispose of refrigerator in accordance with Federal and Local regulations. Refrigerants must be evacuated by a licensed, EPA certified refrigerant technician in accordance with established procedures.

FEATURES

6. Smooth Close Racks

Smooth moves. Each beechwood rack opens and closes ﬂuidly and quietly, even when fully loaded.

7. 45 Bottle Capacity

Drench your desires. Chilled from neck to end, every bottle of cool, liquid temptation is cradled in one of two precision temperature zones.

8. NOIR™ Design Expression

Lose yourself in a world that’s yours alone. Crisp

silhouettes crackle with mystique; beguiling reﬂections ﬂow in and out of sight. Taut with ceaseless allure and minimalist appeal, the NOIR™ design expression rejects dated ideals of beauty.

9. RISE™ Design Expression

Embrace an era of striking proportions. A stainless steel suit of armor gleams with spectacular light. This is strength—inextricable from beauty. Forged in the ﬁres of progress, the RISE™ design expression towers over stagnant, uninspired designs that have inherited undeserved standing.

10. Custom Overlay Design

Break free with custom panels that allow unapologetic expression. Custom panels and handles must be purchased separately.

8,9,10.

11. Auto Light Option

Features a proximity sensor in the base grille that automatically ramps on the LED interior display lighting when motion is detected.

12. Hushed Acoustics

Our internal compressor keeps your beverages impeccably chilled, while running unobtrusively in the background. Brilliance doesn’t have to announce itself; it just is.

INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS

13. Emotive Controls

Hold sway over every zone. Let your light-guided touch coax out the distinct ﬂavors and aroma of every bottle.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, fire, or electrical shock.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Before you move your wine cellar into its ﬁnal location, it is important to make sure you have the proper electrical connection.

RECOMMENDED GROUNDING METHOD

A 115 V, 60 Hz, AC only, 15 or 20 A fused, grounded electrical supply is required. It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only your wine cellar be provided. Use an outlet that cannot be turned off by a switch. Do not use an extension cord.

NOTE: Before performing any type of installation, cleaning, or removing a light bulb, unplug wine cellar or disconnect power.

UNPACK THE WINE CELLAR

WARNING

Excessive Weight Hazard

Use two or more people to move and install wine cellar.

Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.

Before using your wine cellar, all packaging materials should be removed and the interior should be cleaned.

 Remove tape and glue residue from surfaces before

turning on the wine cellar. With your ﬁngers, rub a

small amount of liquid dish soap over any adhesive

and wipe with warm water to remove.  Do not use sharp instruments, rubbing alcohol,

ﬂammable ﬂuids, or abrasive cleaners to remove tape

or glue. These can damage the surfaces of your wine

cellar. For more information, refer “Wine Cellar Safety”

section.

 Dispose of and/or recycle all packaging materials.  After all packaging materials have been removed,

clean the inside of your wine cellar. Refer the cleaning instructions in “Cleaning” section.

NOTE: For standard stainless steel or glass door models, skip to "Door Closing" section.

CUSTOM OVERLAY PANEL INSTALLATION

IMPORTANT:

 Create custom overlay panel according to the

speciﬁcations in the “Custom Overlay Panel” section.  JennAir is not responsible for the removal or addition

of molding or decorative panels that would not allow

access to the wine cellar for service.

1. Open the door completely to 90°.

90°

2. Remove the gasket from the corners of the door,

pulling gently until the two screw holes in each

corner of the door can be seen.

NOTE: The gasket does not have to be removed from

the door, only the corners.

3. Using two people, hold the custom overlay panel

against the door. Be sure that the top and bottom hinges ﬁt accurately into the routing on back of the custom wood panel.

NOTE: Handle needs to be installed before the custom overlay door panel has been installed on the wine cellar door.

4. Fasten the custom panel to the door using two wood

screws (provided in installation kit) at each corner.

A. M4 x 30 ﬂathead screws (provided in installation kit)

A. Screw holes B. Gasket

5. Press the gasket ﬁrmly back into it’s original position.

INSTALLATION AND DOOR CLOSING

Your wine cellar has four leveling legs. If your wine cellar seems unsteady or you want the door to close more easily, adjust the wine cellar’s tilt using the instructions below.

WARNING

Electrical Shock Hazard

Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.

Do not remove ground prong.

Do not use an adapter.

Do not use an extension cord.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, fire, or electrical shock.

1. Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.

2. Move the wine cellar into its ﬁnal location.

3. Turn the leveling legs to the right to lower the wine

cellar, or turn the leveling legs to the left to raise it. It may take several turns of the leveling legs to adjust the tilt of the wine cellar.

NOTE: Having someone push against the top of the wine cellar takes some weight off the leveling legs. This makes it easier to adjust the leveling legs.

4. Open the door and check that it closes as easily as

you like. If not, tilt the wine cellar slightly more to the rear by turning both front leveling screws to the right. It may take several more turns, and you should turn both leveling legs the same amount.

WARNING

Excessive Weight Hazard

Use two or more people to move and install wine cellar.

Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.

When Moving Your Wine Cellar:

Your wine cellar is heavy. When moving the wine cellar for cleaning or service, be sure to cover the oor with cardboard or hardboard to avoid oor damage. Always pull the wine cellar straight out when moving it. Do not wiggle or “walk” the wine cellar when trying to move it, as oor damage could occur.

USING WINE CELLAR

NOTE:

 When the wine cellar is turned On for the ﬁrst time,

the temperature defaults to the recommended

setting.  There are two adjustable temperature controls, one

for each compartment.  The left temperature and preset touch pads control

the temperature of the upper compartment.  The right temperature and preset touch pads control

the temperature of the lower compartment.

1. Turning Control On/Off

The ﬁrst time that the wine cellar is plugged in, the

control will be in Cool Off mode. Cool On and Cool Off

will be the only options that display.

Press COOL ON for 3 seconds to turn on the wine

cellar. All menus and recommended temperature

settings will be displayed.

2. Auto Light Option

Features a proximity sensor in the base grille that

automatically ramps on the LED interior display

lighting when motion is detected. When motion is no

longer detected, the interior display light will turn off

after 2 minutes.

 Press the AUTO LIGHT option to activate this

feature.

 When the AUTO LIGHT is not activated, the

interior display light will only turn on when the door is opened.

NOTE:

 Leaving the light on for an extended period of

time will slightly increase the temperature of the wine cellar.

4. Using Presets

For your convenience, your wine cellar also has controls that are preset to recommended storage temperature for speciﬁc wines. Pressing any preset option will set the temperature to the recommended temperature for the speciﬁed wine:

 Assorted: 54°F (12°C)  Champagne: 46°F (7°C)  Red Wine: 64°F (17°C)  Sweet Wine: 42°F (5°C)

 White Wine: 50°F (10°C)

5. Adjusting the Temperatures

To adjust set point temperatures, press “+” (plus) or “-” (minus) until the desired temperature setting is reached. The control is set correctly when the wine is as cold as you like it.

NOTE:

 The set point for the wine cellar is 50°F (10°C) for

both the upper and lower compartments. The set point range for the upper compartment is 42°F to 54°F (5°C to 12°C) and 42°F to 64°F (5°C to 17°C) for the lower compartment.

 Wait at least 24 hours between adjustments

for the product to acclimate. Recheck the temperatures before making further adjustments.

6. Viewing Celsius/Fahrenheit

Temperatures

Press the F/C touch pad to toggle between displaying the temperature in degrees Fahrenheit and degrees Celsius. The corresponding indicator will illuminate.

3. Control Lock

Avoids unintended temperature changes and makes

it easy to clean the controls.

 To activate Lock Mode, press and hold LOCK for

3 seconds. After the countdown, all other displays will turn off and become unavailable except Cool On, Cool Off and Lock.

7. Sabbath Mode

Allows the door of the wine cellar to be opened or closed on the Sabbath or other religious holidays without directly turning on or off any lights, digital readouts, fans, valves, tones or alarms. By selecting this feature, the temperature set points remain unchanged, but the control panel lights, interior lights, and control audio turn off. For most efﬁcient wine cellar operation, it is recommended to exit the Sabbath Mode when it is no longer required.

 Press and hold SABBATH for 3 seconds to turn on

the feature. After the 3 second countdown, the feature will activate and all other displays will turn Off.

 Press and hold SABBATH for 3 seconds to turn off

the feature and turn on the display.

8. Over Temp Alarm

Helps avoid wine from spoiling by giving an audible

and visual alert if the temperature in either zone rises

above the preset range for 10 minutes.

The audio alarm will shut off automatically when the

temperature returns to normal. To let you know an

Over Temperature condition occurred, the indicator

light will continue to ﬂash until the Reset Alarm touch

pad is pressed. If the over temperature condition is

still present when an Over Temp reset is performed,

the indicator light will continue to reactivate every

4 hours until the wine cellar temperature is below

preset range.

NOTE: These features will not appear on your control

unless your wine cellar is above preset range and the

alarm requires a reset.

9. Cellar Mode

Boosts humidity in the Wine Cellar above 50% to help

preserve your ﬁnest vintages.

 Press CELLAR MODE for 3 seconds to turn on

the feature. The feature will activate and internal temperature in both UPPER and LOWER zone will be set at 55°F (13°C) and internal humidity will be maintained above 50% but not exceed 80%.

 Press CELLAR MODE to turn off the feature and

return to the previous settings.

NOTE: For Cellar Mode function to operate properly,

the ambient room temperature and

relative humidity (RH) must be maintained at 75°F

(24°C) and with of ≥ 50% (RH).

NORMAL SOUNDS

Your new wine cellar may make sounds that your old one didn’t make. Because the sounds are new to you, you might be concerned about them. Most of the new sounds are normal. Hard surfaces, such as the ﬂooring and surrounding structures, can make the sounds seem louder. The following describes the kinds of sounds and what may be making them.

 Your wine cellar is designed to run more efﬁciently

to keep your wine at the desired temperatures and to minimize energy usage. The high efﬁciency compressor and fans may cause your wine cellar to run longer than your old one. You may also hear a pulsating or high-pitched sound from the compressor or fans adjusting to optimize performance.

 Rattling noises may come from the ﬂow of refrigerant

or items stored inside the wine cellar.

 As each cycle ends, you may hear a gurgling sound

due to the refrigerant ﬂowing in your wine cellar.

 You may hear water running into the drain pan when

the wine cellar is defrosting.

 You may hear clicking sounds when the wine cellar

starts or stops running.

10. Door Open Alarm

Helps avoid wine from spoiling by giving an audio

and visual alert if the door is left open for 10 minutes.

If the door is open longer than 10 minutes, an alarm

will sound every 2 minutes until the door is closed or

any control is pressed.

11. Showroom Mode

This mode is used only when the wine cellar is on

display in a retail store. If you unintentionally turn on

Showroom Mode, Cool Off will light up on the display,

and the controls will appear to work. Exit Showroom

Mode by pressing and holding COOL ON and

SABBATH at the same time for 3 seconds.
