How to Install Your
Refrigerated Beverage Center
Select Location: The proper location will ensure peak
performance of your appliance. Choose a location
where the unit will be out of direct sunlight and away
from heat sources. Best performance will be maintained when installed within the following parameters:
Cabinet Clearance: Ventilation is required from the
bottom front section of the unit. Keep this area open
and clear of any obstructions.
Electrical Connection: Use nominal 115 volt, 60
cycle AC only. DO NOTUSE AN EXTENSION CORD

Grounding Method: This product is factory
equipped with a power supply cord that has a threepronged grounded plug. It must be plugged into a
mating grounding type receptacle in accordance with
the National Electrical Code and applicable local
codes and ordinances (see figure 1). If the circuit
does not have a grounding type receptacle, it is the
responsibility and obligation of the customer to
exchange the existing receptacle in accordance with
the National Electrical Code and applicable local
codes and ordinances. The third ground prong
should not, under any circumstances, be cut or
removed. All U.L. listed refrigerated products are
equipped with this type of plug.
How to Operate Your
Refrigerated Beverage Center
Set the Control: The total available temperature
range of the unit is from 39°F to the high sixties,
depending on the thermostat setting and location of
the cabinet. The middle range on the control is from
the mid-forties to the mid-fifties depending on ambient
temperature and location of
the cabinet. The temperature can be lowered or
raised by turning the control
clockwise or counterclockwise, respectively. As with
any refrigeration product,
there is a slight temperature variance at different locations within the cabinet. For example, the coolest area
will be in the rear of the lowest two shelves. The items
on the top two shelves will be 5° to 10° warmer. This
is the warmest location. Items in the front of the middle shelves will be 1° to 4° warmer than the rear of the
shelves. Position your wine inventory accordingly on
your wine shelf. To start your appliance, use a screwdriver to turn the control clockwise to the middle thermostat setting (see figure 2). Once the refrigerator is
loaded, allow at least 48 hours for the unit to stabilize
before making any adjustments to the initial setting.
Insert Wine Bottles: The wine rack roll-out shelf
holds four bottles. See figure 3 for typical wine
bottle orientation.
Note: Wine rack can be located at top or bottom
part of cabinet interior. For red wines, place wine
shelf at top shelf position in the cabinet. Then put
a glass shelf in the next lower position. For white
and sparkling wines, put the wine shelf on the
lowest shelf position in the cabinet. Place the
remaining shelves as desired.
Loading Tips and
Suggestions for Wine Rack
Bottom shelves may be removed for storing "jug" wines.
You can store magnum bottles and other large bottles
on any of the shelves (except for the top shelf) by
removing the shelf directly above them or placing the
shelf at a higher position.
Locate white wines on the middle or lower shelf positions and red wines on the upper position.
The bottles on the top rack directly under the light will
be exposed to a slightly higher temperature when the
light is on. Position you wines accordingly and
REMEMBER TO TURN OFF THE LIGHT WHEN IT IS
NO LONGER NEEDED.
Keep wines that you plan to use for everyday drinking
and entertaining on the front half of the racks where
labels are completely visible. Place wines for aging or
longer term storing in rear.

How to Clean and
Maintain Your beverage center
Condenser: The condenser tubing inside the cabinet
does not require frequent cleaning; however, satisfactory cooling depends on adequate ventilation over
the coils. Be sure that nothing obstructs the required
air flow openings in front of the cabinet. At least once
or twice a year brush or vacuum lint and dirt from the
condenser for efficient performance by unscrewing
the grille on the bottom front of the cabinet.
Cabinet: The painted cabinet can be washed with
mild soap and water and thoroughly rinsed with clear
water. Never use abrasive scouring powders.
Interior: Wash interior compartment with mild soap
and water. Do not use an abrasive powder, solvent,
polish cleaner or undiluted detergent.
Glass Door: Use a glass cleaner or mild soap and
water and soft cloth to clean the glass door model.
Do not use any abrasive powders.
Door Gasket: The vinyl gasket may be cleaned with
mild soap and water, a baking soda solution or a mild
scouring powder.
Light T ube Replacement: WARNING! DISCONNECT
THE POWER CORD BEFORE ATTEMPTING LIGHT
TUBE HOUSING ASSEMBLY REPLACEMENT.
Failure to do so may result in an electrical shock that
could severely injure you.
This product uses one, 6 watt light tube to illuminate
the interior of the beverage center. The light tube is a
very reliable electrical component, but should it not
function properly , please call the dealer you purchased
your beverage center from for a replacement light tube
housing assembly. Use only an original equipment
light tube housing assembly from your dealer or manufacturer.
Using a
5
/16” hex-head driver, remove the two hex-
head screws holding the old light tube housing
assembly in place. Disconnect the electrical plug
from the cabinet’s electrical receptacle and discard
the old light tube housing assembly. Reconnect the
electrical plug of the new light tube housing assembly to the cabinet’s electrical receptacle. Make sure
it is secure and fully inserted.
Using the
5
/16” hex-head driver, resecure the two
hex-head screws back into their original positions to
fasten the light tube housing assembly to the top of
the cabinet.
Re-use the original two screws to secure the light tube
housing in place. Plug the beverage center into the
electrical socket. Check to see if the light tubes operate properly . Your light tube’ s replacement is complete.
The light tubes are not covered by your guarantee. A
replacement light tube housing can be obtained from
your service provider or from Marvel Industries.
What to do in
the Event of a Power Failure
Most power failures are corrected within two hours
and will not affect the unit’s temperature providing you
minimize the number of door openings while the
power is off. A gradual rise in temperature should not
have any adverse effect on your wine if power is out
for a longer period. If it is extremely hot, you may
want to move your wines to the coolest location you
can find until power is restored.
Appliance Features
Adjustable Temperature Control: Please see “how
to Operate Your Refrigerated Beverage Center” on
page two.
Interior Light and Switch: The interior light makes it
easy to view the contents of your refrigerator. When the
switch is in the “OFF”
position, the light will
come on when the door
is opened. When the
switch is pushed such
that the “red” portion of
the rocker is showing, the
switch is in the “on” position and the interior light will
stay on continuously. Remember to turn the off the light
when it is no longer needed.

Roll-out Shelves: The roll-out shelves may be pulled
out approximately 14 inches to facilitate product loading
and retrieval. Do not lean on or press down heavily on
the shelves, doing so may damage the shelves or their
content. Pull out shelves gently to minimize any possible
item shifting. To maintain stability, avoid pulling out more
than one shelf at any time.
The roll-out shelves are equipped with a removable
center section that allows you to customize the storage capability of your refrigerator. Your unit is shipped
with three glass shelves and one wine rack, but for
added versatility, additional center sections are available. You may purchase an optional open bottle cradle
that allows storage of opened wine or champagne bottles. Please contact dealer or see Marvel’s website at
www
.marvelindustries.com for ordering.
Single Bottle Racks: Because bottles are not stacked
on top of each other, you can easily view and access
your inventory without disturbing other bottles.
