• Before you throw away your old wine cooler or any appliance: Remove the door.
Leave the shelves in place so that children may not easily climb inside.

sure that airflow under the appliance is not blocked.
• Place your appliance on a floor that is strong enough to support it when it is fully loaded. To level
your appliance, adjust the front leveling legs at the bot tom.
• Locate the appliance away from direct sunlight and sources of heat (stove, heater, radiator, etc.).
Direct sunlight may affect the acrylic coating and heat sources may increase electrical
consumption. Extremely cold ambient temperatures may also cause the unit not to perform
properly.
• Avoid locating the unit in moist areas.
• Plug the appliance into an exclusive, properly inst alled and grounde d wal l out let . Do not u nder any

Defrosting
While it is running, the appliance defrosts itself automatically every 8 hours. The defrosting process
lasts about 30 minutes. The melt water collects in the evaporator drip tray where it evaporates.
During the process of defrosting, the displayed temp er at ur e may be higher than the set temperature.
NOTE: You may notice condensation on the outer surface of the glass door. This occurs when water
vapor from the air contacts the cold surface of the door and the vapor condenses on the glass,
causing a fogging effect. In extreme situations, water can even drip off the door, indicating
excessive humidity in t he environment.
