WINE CELLAR SAFETY
Your safety and the safety of others are very important.
We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your appliance. Always read and obey all safety
messages.
This is the safety alert symbol.
This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or hurt you and others.
All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and either the word "DANGER" or "WARNING."
These words mean:
You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't immediately
follow instructions.
You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't follow
instructions.
All safety messages will tell you what the potential hazard is, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury, and tell you what can
happen if the instructions are not followed.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury when using your wine cellar, follow these basic precautions:
• Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
• Do not remove ground prong.
• Do not use an adapter.
• Do not use an extension cord.
• Disconnect power before servicing.
• Replace all parts and panels before operating.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
• Remove doors from your old wine cellar.
• Use nonflammable cleaner.
• Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as gasoline,
away from wine cellar.
• Use two or more people to move and install wine cellar.
Proper Disposal of Your Old Wine Cellar
Suffocation Hazard
Remove door 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.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
TOOLS NEEDED:
Gather the required tools and parts before starting installation.
• Phillips screwdriver
Explosion Hazard
Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as
gasoline, away from wine cellar.
Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
To ensure proper ventilation for your wine cellar, allow for a 1/4"
(6.35 mm) space on each side and at the top. When installing
your wine cellar next to a fixed wall, leave 21/2'' (6.35 cm)
minimum clearance on each side to allow for the door to swing
open.
NOTE: It is recommended that you do not install the wine cellar
near an oven, radiator, or other heat source. Do not install in a
location where the temperature will fall below 55°F (13°C). For
best performance, do not install the wine cellar behind a cabinet
door or block the base grille.
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.
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 Volt, 60 Hz., AC only 15- or 20-amp 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.

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.
Remove the Packaging
• Remove tape and glue residue from surfaces before turning
on the wine cellar. Rub a small amount of liquid dish soap
over the adhesive with your fingers. Wipe with warm water
and dry.
• Do not use sharp instruments, rubbing alcohol, flammable
fluids, or abrasive cleaners to remove tape or glue. These
products can damage the surface of your wine cellar. For
more information, see "Wine Cellar Safety."
• Disposeof/recycleallpackagingmaterials.

Clean Before Using
After you remove all of the packaging materials, clean the inside
of your wine cellar before using it. See the cleaning instructions in
"Wine Cellar Care."
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.

Open the door and check to make sure 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.

1. Open the wine cellar door.
2. Using a Phillips screwdriver, remove the two screws. Push
both tabs in toward the center to release the base grille from
the wine cellar.

WINE CELLAR USE
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 food items 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.
For your convenience, your wine cellar control is preset at the
factory. When you first install your wine cellar, make sure that the
control is still preset to the mid-setting as shown.

Temperature Separator (Temperature Display)
The temperature separator displays the current temperatures
(Fahrenheit or Celsius) for the upper and lower zones
(compartments) of the wine cellar. To adjust the temperature
settings, see "Adjusting Controls" earlier in this section.

B. Upper zone display
C. Lower zone display
D. Fahrenheit/Celsius
Recommended Zone Storing Locations
For best storing and serving temperatures for your bottle of wine,
use the wine producer's recommended temperature setting. See
the wine's label for details. It is recommended to store wine for
short-term (few months) at 55°F (13°C).

Adjusting Controls
The mid-setting indicated in the previous section should be
correct for normal usage. The control is set correctly when
beverages are as cold as you like.
If you need to adjust the temperature, wait at least 24 hours
between adjustments and then recheck the temperature.
To make the wine cellar colder, adjust the control to the next
higher setting. To make the wine cellar less cold, adjust the
control to the next lower setting.

The wine cellar has an interior light that comes on any time the
door is opened. You may also turn the light on at any time by
opening the door and pressing the exterior switch located beside
the temperature control knob on the base grille.
NOTE: Leaving the light on for an extended period of time will
slightly increase the temperature of the wine cellar.
WINE CELLAR CARE
Explosion Hazard
Use nonflammable cleaner.
Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
Clean the wine cellar about once a month to prevent odors from
building up. Wipe up spills immediately.
To clean your wine cellar:
1. Unplug wine cellar or disconnect power.
2. Remove all racks from inside the wine cellar.

Vacations
If you choose to turn the wine cellar off before you leave, follow
these steps.
1. Remove all wine bottles from the wine cellar.
2. Unplug the wine cellar.
3. Clean the wine cellar. See "Cleaning."
4. Tape a rubber or wood block to the top of the door to prop it
open far enough for air to get in. This stops odor and mold
from building up.
Moving
When you are moving your wine cellar to a new home, follow
these steps to prepare it for the move.
1. Remove all wine bottles from the wine cellar.
2. Unplug the wine cellar.
3. Clean, wipe, and dry it thoroughly.
4. Take out all removable parts, wrap them well, and tape them
together so they don't shift and rattle during the move.
5. Tape the doors shut and tape the power cord to the wine
cellar.
When you get to your new home, put everything back and refer to
the "Installation Instructions" section for preparation instructions.
Trythe solutions suggested here first in order to avoid the cost of an unnecessary service call.
Your wine cellar will not operate
JROUBLESHOOTING
• Is the control set correctly for the surrounding
conditions? See "Using the Control."
• Is the door closed completely? Push the door firmly shut. If
it will not shut all the way, see "The door will not close
completely" later in this section.
• Are the condenser coils dirty? This prevents air transfer and
makes the motor work harder. Clean the condenser coils. See
"Cleaning."
Temperature is too warm
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.
• Is the power supply cord unplugged? Plug into a grounded
3 prong outlet.
• Has a household fuse blown, or has a circuit breaker
tripped? Replace the fuse or reset the circuit.
• Is the Wine Cellar Control turned to the OFF position? See
"Using the Control."
The lights do not work
• Is the power supply cord unplugged? Plug into a grounded
3 prong outlet.
• Is a light bulb loose in the socket or burned out? See
"Changing the Light Bulb."
There is water in the defrost drain pan
Is the door opened often? Be aware that the wine cellar will
warm when this occurs. In order to keep the wine cellar cool,
try to get everything you need out of the wine cellar at once,
keep wine bottles positioned label side up so that they are
easy to find, and close the door as soon as the wine is
removed.
• Is the control set correctly for the surrounding
conditions? See "Using the Control."
• Is the base grille blocked? For best performance, do not
install the wine cellar behind a cabinet door or block the base
grille.
There is interior moisture buildup
Is the door opened often? To avoid humidity buildup, try to
get everything you need out of the wine cellar at once, keep
wine bottles positioned label side up so that they are easy to
find, and close the door as soon as the wine is removed.
When the door is opened, humidity from the room air enters
the wine cellar. The more often the door is opened, the faster
humidity builds up, especially when the room itself is very
humid.
• Is it humid? It is normal for moisture to build up inside the
wine cellar when the air is humid.
• Is the control set correctly for the surrounding
conditions? See "Using the Control."
• Is the wine cellar defrosting? The water will evaporate. It is
normal for water to drip into the defrost pan.
• Is it more humid than normal? Expect that the water in the
defrost pan will take longer to evaporate. This is normal when
it is hot or humid.
The motor seems to runtoo much
Is the temperature outside hotter than normal? Expect the
motor to run longer under warm conditions. At normal
temperatures, expect your motor to run about 40% to 80% of
the time. Under warmer conditions, expect it to run even
more of the time.
Is the door opened often? Expect the motor to run longer
when this occurs. In order to conserve energy, try to get
everything you need out of the wine cellar at once, keep wine
bottles positioned label side up so that they are easy to find,
and close the door as soon as the wine is removed.
The door isdifficult to open
Explosion Hazard
Use nonflammable cleaner.
Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
• Is the gasket dirty or sticky? Clean the gasket and the
surface that it touches. Rub a thin coat of paraffin wax on the
gasket following cleaning.
The door will not close completely
• Are the racks out of position? Put the racks back into their
correct positions. See "Wine Cellar Use" for more
information.
