WAR RAN TY

Sub-Zero products are covered by a two, five and twelve year residential warranty (exclusions apply). See warranty details at the end of this guide.

Dual temperature zones—all wine storage models allow you to have precise independent temperature control within one degree of your preset temperature in each of the two temperature zones.

Model 427R has a third temperature zone— refrigerated drawers—for items to be stored at a cooler temperature than your wine.

Electronic controls—a microprocessor controls all electronic functions and allows you to monitor the exact temperature you have preset and make adjustments easily.

Correct temperature—each temperature zone of your wine storage unit has a range of 38˚F (3˚C) to 65˚F (18˚C), and your set temperature is shown in the LED display, located on the control panel.

Proper humidity is maintained throughout the entire unit.

Discreet lighting—our soft low-wattage lighting can be controlled independently of the door’s opening, which will allow you to display your collection of wine for special occasions.

Sturdy, rustproof wire shelves can easily accommodate standard 750 ml bottles, half bottles, as well as magnums. Finished off with a natural cherry wood facing, all shelves ensure that the wine is stored properly, with the corks in contact with the bottles‘ contents.

Display shelf—featured on Models 427, 427R and 430, this shelf allows you to display those prized bottles in your wine collection. It is illuminated with discreet lighting mounted in the control panel.

Service alert— an indicator light in the LED display on the control panel will let you know if service may be necessary.

Home alarm—wiring connections give you the option of hooking the wine storage unit up to your home security system.

Model 427R has an alarm feature that will make an audible beeping sound if a drawer has been left open.

Sabbath Mode will allow the lights to remain off during certain religious observances.

UV-resistant glass in the door filters out harmful UV light.

Optional lock— lock is available as a sales accessory. Contact your Sub-Zero dealer for details.

Magnetic gaskets around the doors give extra-tight seals.

The solid, adjustable kickplate gives a true built-in look and conforms to American Institute of Architects standards.

Front venting— all Sub-Zero wine storage models are designed for mechanical system airflow at the front of the unit.

Roller-assembly shelves with a full threequarter extension for easy access to all stored bottles.

With the installation of a harness kit, these appliances are Star-K compliant to meet strict religious regulations in conjunction with specific instructions found on www.star-k.org. For details about the harness kit, contact your Sub-Zero dealer.

Temperature

Controls

LECT RONI C C O NTR O L S YST E M

The Electronic Control System of your Sub-Zero wine storage unit gives you the most accurate temperature control for your peace of mind. You can be assured your wine is stored at the temperature you have selected, whether it is long-term aging or staging wine for consumption that evening.

A microprocessor accurately samples the temperature every second in each zone to be sure the temperatures stay within one degree of your preset temperatures. It also monitors the unit’s operation and will let you know if service may be necessary.

TEMP ERAT URE CON T ROL

With all wine storage models you have the capability of setting two distinct temperatures within the two zones of your wine storage unit. Your model has been thoroughly tested and inspected before it was shipped from the factory. The temperature has been preset at 45˚F (7˚C) in the smaller zone and 55˚F (13˚C) in the larger zone.

There are two sets of

WARMER

and

COLDER

key pads on the control panel, one for each of the two separate temperature zones. An arrow next to the temperature in the LED display, will indicate which temperature corresponds with each zone. Refer to the illustration below.

The

COLDER

key pad on the control panel allows you to decrease the temperature in the corresponding zone by one degree each time you depress the key pad. Remember that the temperature range in each zone is 38˚F (3˚C) to 65˚F (18˚C) and you can set two different temperatures —one for each zone.

Similar to the

COLDER

key pad, you can raise the temperature in the corresponding zone by one degree each time you depress the

WARMER

key pad on the control panel.
