Air Flow
The unit requires proper air flow to perform at its highest
efficiency. Do not block the front grille or internal fans at
any time, or the unit will not perform as expected. Do not
install the unit behind a door.
Initial Startup
All U-Line controls are preset at the factory. Initial startup requires
no adjustments.
U-Line recommends allowing the unit to run overnight
before loading refrigerator or freezer with product.
To turn the unit on:
Turn the control dial found in the center of the grille to a MID
setting, number 3 or 4 on the controller knob.
To turn the unit off, turn the control dial counterclockwise until
hearingl a “click”. It may take some force to get the control to
“click”.
Control Dial
Wine Captain Models provide three temperature zones within the
cabinet to satisfy the specific storage requirements of your finest
wines.
The control dial sets a single continuous set-point temperature.
This set point is for the middle zone, it is a base number used by
the controller to maintain the multiple temperature zones in the
unit. The factory default MID setting set-point for Beverage Center
and Refrigerator models is 38°F. The factory default MID setting
set-point for Wine Captain models is 50°F. The set-point
temperature is a gauge for further temperature adjustments.
