4 Product Operation
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 or off, press and hold the POWER icon (1) for
about ten seconds and release. The display will show the unit setpoint temperature when turned on and display OFF when the unit
is off.
Electronic Control Panel
Digital Display. Dual Zone Wine Captain Models provide two
controlled temperature zones to satisfy the specific storage
requirements of your finest wines.
The electronic control with dual digital displays shows a single
continuous set-point temperature for each zone. This set point is a
base number used by the controller to maintain the multiple
temperature zones in the unit. The factory default set-point for
Wine Captain models is 50°F. The set-point temperature is a
gauge for further temperature adjustments.
Turning the Display Off. Wine Captain Models have a DISPLAY
OFF mode available through the control panel. This allows you to
control if the display (4 & 5) will be ON or OFF with the door
closed. The icon sequence that follows will switch between both
modes, On or Off:
1. Press and hold the WARMER icon (2), and simultaneously
within five seconds press the ON OFF icon (1) three times.
2. The display will be either visible or dark with the door closed.
To return to the previous mode, repeat Step 1.

To adjust the set point temperature:
Your unit has been designed to provide two temperature zones
(upper and lower) in the cabinet. Each zone can be adjusted within
the 4 following temperature ranges:
Wine Captain Temperature Ranges

icon. The new set-point will show in the display.
6. Repeat for other zone if desired.
Temperature °F °C Selection. U-Line products supplied for
110 VAC have temperatures displayed (4 & 5) default in Fahrenheit
(°F). Models supplied for 220 VAC have temperatures displayed (3)
default in Celsius (°C).

Press and hold the LIGHT icon (8) and simultaneously within
five seconds press the COOLER icon (5) three times to change
the display (3) as needed.
