on front of the unit. Have someone to assist you in
tilting the unit, to prevent it from falling on you
while installing the leg levelers.

2. Screw front two leg levelers into the screw

impressions. Leg levelers should be screwed in until
snug.

3. Repeat steps 1 & 2, with the exception of tipping

the unit forwards now, to screw in the back two leg
levelers.

4. Your leg levelers are now installed.

5. The unit should be level from front to back and side

to side. If floor conditions do not allow the unit to
sit level, adjust leg leveler(s) by turning the required
leg leveler(s) counter-clockwise to increase their
height and clockwise to reduce their height.

For your personal safety, this wine cellar must be grounded. This appliance is equipped with a 7’ (2.1m) power supply cord
having a 3-prong grounding plug. To minimize possible shock hazard, the cord must be plugged into a mating 3-prong
grounding type wall receptacle grounded in accordance with the National Electrical Code and local codes and ordinances. If
the circuit does not have a grounding type receptacle, it is the responsibility and obligation of the customer to exchange the
existing receptacle in accordance with the National Electrical Code and applicable local codes and ordinances. The third
ground plug SHOULD NOT, under any circumstances, be cut or removed. All UL listed refrigerated products are equipped
with this type of plug.

FINAL PREPARATION

1. Some stainless steel parts may have a plastic protective wrap which must be peeled off. The interior of the wine cellar

should be washed thoroughly with hot, soapy water, rinsed and wiped dry to remove film residue and any installation dust
or debris before being used. Solutions stronger than soap and water are rarely needed.

2. All stainless steel parts should be wiped with hot soapy water. If buildup occurs, do not use steel wool, abrasive cloths,

cleaners, or powders. If it is necessary to scrape stainless steel to remove encrusted materials, soak with hot, wet cloths to
loosen the material, then use a wood or nylon scraper. Do not use a metal knife, spatula, or any other metal tool to scrape
stainless steel; scratches are almost impossible to remove.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

SSeettttiinngg tthhee CCoonnttrroollss
The total available temperature range of the unit is from 40 - 43

0

F (4.4-- 6.10C) to 64 - 660F (17.8 - 18.90C).

The middle range on the control is approximately 55

0

F (12.80C). The higher the number selected, the
cooler the temperature within the unit. As with any refrigeration product, there is a slight temperature
variance at different locations within the cabinet. For example, the coolest area will be in the rear of the
lowest shelf. The area on the top shelf will be 3 - 7

0

F warmer. This is the warmest location in the cabinet.

The area in the front will be 1 - 5

0

F warmer than the area in the rear of the shelves.

To start your wine cellar, use a screwdriver to turn the control clockwise to the middle thermostat setting. Once the wine cellar
is loaded allow at least 48 hours for the unit to stabilize before making any adjustments to the initial setting.

TTiippss aanndd SSuuggggeessttiioonnss

•After making a temperature adjustment, allow 24 hours for your wine cellar to reach a new temperature setting.

•The motor will start and stop often. It must do this to maintain the temperature setting.

•Unplug the wine cellar before working on anything with the electrical system.

•Exercise caution when sweeping, vacuuming, or mopping near the front of the unit. Damage to the grill and/or the light

fixture switch can occur.

LIGHT ASSEMBLY REPLACEMENT

NOTE: Please contact your local Viking Range

Corporation parts distributor or dealer to order new light
assembly.

To replace the light, first disconnect the wine cellar’s
power cord. Next, remove both the green ground wire
screw located on the left of the light assembly and the
other screw located on the right of the light assembly with
a 5-16” hex head screwdriver. (See drawing). Unplug the
light unit and remove complete light assembly.

To install the new light assembly, screw in the green ground wire screw and the screw
located on the right with a 5/16” hex head screwdriver and plug the light unit in.

INTERIOR LIGHT

The interior light allows you to view your wine cellar contents. When the switch is in the “OFF” position, the
light will come on only when the door is opened. In the “ON” position, the light remains on continuously.

WARNING

Failure to disconnect the power cord when changing the
light assembly may result in electric shock.

LOADING RECOMMENDATIONS

Each of the six roll-out racks hold four bottles. The necks of the bottles alternate front
to back. To aid in loading/unloading, the racks extend up to 14 inches (35.6 cm) to
allow easier access to the rear bottles. Bottom racks may be removed for storing “jug’”
wines. Magnums and other large bottles may be stored by removing the rack directly
above the intended storage rack. To remove a rack, first unlock the rack by pushing the
lock backward. The lock is located on the bottom front of each rack. After reinserting
the rack, push the lock forward to lock the rack back into place.

Bottles on the top rack directly under the light will be exposed to slightly higher
temperature when the light is on. Store red wines on the upper racks where the
temperature is higher and white wines on the middle or lower racks where the
temperature is lower. REMEMBER TO TURN OFF THE LIGHT WHEN IT IS NO
LONGER NEEDED.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Any piece of equipment works better and lasts longer when maintained properly and kept clean.

CCoonnddeennsseerr
The condenser tubing inside the cabinet does not require frequent cleaning; however, satisfactory cooling depends on
adequate ventilation over the coils. Be sure that nothing obstructs the required air flow openings in front of the cabinet.
Spiders and insects can nest in and around the wine cellar causing damage to the unit. Frequently brush or vacuum lint
and dirt from the condenser coils for efficient performance by unscrewing the grill on the bottom front of cabinet.

CCaabbiinneett
The cabinet can be washed with mild soap and water and thoroughly rinsed with clear water. Never use abrasive scouring
powders.

IInntteerriioorr
Wash interior compartment with mild soap and water. Do not use abrasive powder, solvent, polish cleaner or undiluted
detergent.

LOADING RECOMMENDATIONS (con’t)

Store wines intended for everyday use on the front half of the racks where labels are completely visible and place wines
for aging or long term storage in the rear half of the rack. Pull wine racks out gently to minimize the unsettling of your
wine collection. Avoid pulling out more than one rack at any time to maintain stability.

Since the bottles are not
stacked on top of each
other, the single bottle rack
allows easy view and access
to your inventory without
disturbing other bottles
