Important Safety Instructions
Warnings and safety instructions appearing in this guide
are not meant to cover all possible conditions and situations
that may occur. Common sense, caution, and care must
be exercised when installing, maintaining, or operating this
appliance.
Recognize Safety Symbols,
Words, and Labels.
CAUTION-Hazards or unsafe practices which could
result in personal injury or property or product damage.
WARNING-Hazards or unsafe practices which could

Note to Customer
This merchandise was carefully packed and thoroughly
inspected before leaving our plant. Responsibility for its safe
delivery was assumed by the retailer upon acceptance of
the shipment. Claims for loss or damage sustained in transit
must be made to the retailer.
DO NOT RETURN DAMAGED MERCHANDISE TO THE
MANUFACTURER - FILE THE CLAIM WITH THE RETAILER.
If the unit was shipped or has been laying on its back for
any period of time allow the refrigerator to sit upright for a
period of at least 24 hours before plugging in. This will assure oil returns to the compressor. Plugging the refrigerator
in immediately may cause damage to internal parts.
Warranty Registration
It is important to register your product as soon as possible
after taking delivery of your wine storage unit. You can register online at www.rangemaster.co.uk.
NOTE
NOTE-Important information to make a problem free
installation.
Remove Packaging
Your refrigerator has been packed for shipment with all
parts that could be damaged by movement securely fastened. Cut the banding material at the bottom of the carton,
unfold the carton at the bottom and remove the carton from
the appliance. Remove the plastic bag, styrofoam corner
posts, and any tape holding the door closed and internal
components in place. The owners manual is shipped inside
the refrigerator in a plastic bag along with the warranty
registration card.
Important
Keep your carton packaging until your refrigerator has been
thoroughly inspected and found to be in good condition. If
there is damage, the packaging will be needed as proof of
damage in transit. Afterwards please dispose of all items
responsibly in particular the plastic bags which can be a suffocation hazard.
The following information will be required when registering
your unit.
Model Number
Serial Number
Date of Purchase
Supplier’s name and address
Installer’s name and address
The model number and serial number can be found on the
data badge which is located inside the refrigerator on the
left side toward the top of the cavity.
Help Prevent Tragedies
Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems of the
past. Junked or abandoned refrigerators are still dangerous.
Even if they sit out for “just a few days”.
If you are getting rid of your old refrigerator, please follow
the instructions below to help prevent accidents.
Before you throw away your old refrigerator or freezer:
• Take off the doors or remove the drawers.
• Leave the shelves in place so children may not easily
climb inside.

INSTALLING YOUR BEVERAGE CENTRE
Select Location
The proper location will ensure peak performance of your
appliance. We recommend a location where the unit will
be out of direct sunlight and away from heat sources. To
assure your product performs to specifications the recommended installation location temperature range is from
18 to 27°C for indoor built in units, 18 to 32°C for indoor
freestanding units, and 4 to 38°C for outdoor units.
Cabinet Clearance
Ventilation is required from the bottom front section of the
unit. Keep this area open and clear of any obstructions.
Adjacent cabinets and counter top can be installed around
the unit as long as the grille and door access remain unobstructed.
Leveling Legs
Adjustable legs at the front and rear corners of the unit
should be set so the unit is firmly positioned on the floor and
level from side to side and front to back. Turn leveling legs
clockwise to raise unit, counterclockwise to lower it. (See
Figure 1).
Front Grille,
keep this
area open.
Front Grille
Do not obstruct the front grille. The openings within the front
grille provide air to flow into and exit from the refrigerator
condenser. For this reason it is important this area to not be
obstructed and be kept clean. Rangemaster does not recommend the use of custom made grilles as air flow may be
restricted because of inadequate openings. (See Figure 1).

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
Electrical Connection
Use nominal 230 VAC, 50 Hz only.
Do not use an extension cord with this appliance.
Green/Yellow
(earth)
Blue (neutral)
Fuse (13A)
Brown (live)
13A must be used and fitted with a 13A fuse “ASTA” approved to BS 1363.
If you replace the fuse, the cover must be refitted. If the
cover is lost, the plug must not be used until a replacement
has been obtained from your supplier. The color of the fuse
cover is that of the insert in the base of the fuse recess or
elsewhere on the plug. Always state this color when ordering a replacement cover.
If your appliance has a moulded plug, you do NOT have to
do the following assembly as shown in Figure 2. Appliances
with moulded plugs are ready to use as is.
IMPORTANT: The wires should be connected to the terminals of the plug as follows:
• Earth to the terminal marked E or coloured Green or
Green/Yellow.
• Neutral to the terminal marked N or coloured Blue.
• Live to the terminal marked L or coloured Brown.
When wiring the plug, ensure that all strands of wire are
retained in each terminal. The flexible main cable, plug and
socket must not be exposed to flue products or be allowed
to come in contact with a hot surface. The cable must not
be trapped or pulled taut when the appliance is pushed into
position.
THIS UNIT SHOULD NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES,
BE UNEARTHED.
Figure 2
THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED. All external wiring
must comply with the IEE Regulations for the Electrical Equipment of Buildings. Connections to the electrical supply can
be made with either a plug and socket or be permanently
wired via a double-pole switch.
The appliance is supplied with a 250VAC PVC (85 degrees
C) core cable (0.5mm x 2 metres long). Any replacement
cable fitted must follow this specification. The unit may be
supplied with either a moulded or rewirable plug. Should
the plug not fit the socket at the installation site, it should be
removed and replaced with the correct type of plug.
If a moulded plug is fitted which is not suitable, it must be
removed and disposed of. To avoid the risk of electrocution, a plug must not be left where a child may plug it into a
supply socket. It must not be used for any other appliance.

USING YOUR MicroSentry™ REFRIGERATION MONITOR
Door Switch
Control
Light Switch
NOTE
During initial startup, or anytime power is interrupted,
there will be an approximate 5 minute delay before the
refrigerator starts. During this period the controller will
be assessing the temperature in the refrigerator and the
display will appear erratic, this is normal. The desired
temperature set point can be programmed during this
start up period.
Starting your refrigerator
The refrigerator will begin start up when initially plugged in
or when power resumes after a power outage. At this time
the refrigerator will take approximately 5 minutes to begin
running as noted above. If the refrigerator has been turned
off during use, “OFF” will appear on the display. To start the
refrigerator from the “OFF” position press and hold the ON/
OFF button for 3 seconds.
Set temperature
To set temperature set point, press and continue to hold
“SET” button. After one second, set point will be displayed.
While holding “SET” button use the “WARMER” or “COLDER” button to desired set point.
NOTE: Momentarily pressing & releasing “SET” button will
access information menu of control. Refer to appendix A for
information on this feature.
Refrigerator operation
The available temperature range of the refrigerator is 4° to
18° C.
It may take up to 24 hours for your refrigerator to reach desired temperature. This will depend on amount of contents
loaded and number of openings and closings of the door.
For best results allow refrigerator to “pull down” to desired
set point before loading. Once contents are loaded, allow
at least 48 hours for temperature to stabilize before making
any adjustments to the set point.
Figure 3
Alarms
Your MicroSentry™ refrigerator control will monitor refrigerator function and alert you with a series of audible and
visual alarms.
•Door Ajar Alarm: If the door has been left
open for over five (5) minutes, the alarm
will sound in one (1) second intervals. The
display panel will flash “do” and the LED light will be a
steady amber color. This will stop as soon as the door is
closed.
•High and Low Temperature Alarm: If your
unit reaches an unacceptable temperature
outside of your set point, the alarm will
sound in one (1) second intervals. The
display panel will flash either “hi” or “Lo”
depending upon the condition and the LED light will be a
steady amber color. “hi” indicates that the temperature is
5.5°C above the set point and “Lo” indicates that the tem-
perature is 5.5°C below the set point. The alarm will remain
active until the condition is corrected.
NOTE
During initial appliance start-up, the high temperature alarm
may sound until the interior temperature reaches set point.
•Temperature Sensor Fault: If the controller
detects that the temperature sensor is
not properly functioning, a temperature
sensor alarm will sound. “E1” will flash on the display, and
an alarm will sound. Please call Rangemaster Customer
Service or your dealer if this error code is displayed.
•Condenser Needs Cleaning:
When the refrigerator has reached the
recommended amount of run time to necessitate cleaning the air flow, “cL” will flash on the display
as a reminder. See the “Care and Cleaning” section for
cleaning instructions.
