Use and Care Manual

Racking Configuration

Disperse your bottles evenly throughout the unit so as not to concentrate weight in any one area. This also helps to

provide an even temperature range throughout the unit. Make sure that bottles are not all grouped together either at

the top or bottom of the cabinet. The maximum capacity per shelf is 55 lbs. Never try to pull out more than one rolling

shelf at a time as it can cause the appliance to tip forward.

The Allavino Wine Cellar has wood presentation shelves that glide smoothly on ball-bearing tracks which allow easy

access to your entire collection. It has 8 sliding shelves that can hold up to 12 bottles each, and a stationary bottom rack

that can hold 6 bottles, or can be removed to allow you to store up to 11 bottles in the bottom area for a maximum

capacity of 107 bottles. The overall bottle capacity will vary depending upon the size of your bottles.

You can remove a shelf to accommodate larger diameter bottles on the shelf below it. To remove a shelf, pull it out as

far as you can. There are levers on each side of the shelf near the rollers. Left the lever on the left hand side and push

down the lever on the right hand side to remove the shelf from the tracks.

Installation of Door Handle

The Stainless Steel version of this model has optional curved or towel bar handles. The screws are already installed in

the door, so complete these easy steps to attach the handle to the door.

1. Pull back the door gasket from behind the handle screws.

2. Align the male threaded end of the top screw with the female thread of the door handle.

3. Using a Philips screwdriver, thread the top screw into the upper part of the handle first.

4. Then align the bottom screw with the lower part of the handle and tighten it into place.

5. Tighten both screws until snug. Do not over tighten.

Note: On some models, the screws for the curved handle are slightly smaller than the screws installed in the door.

Remove existing screws by tapping the end of the screw through the hole from the outside of the door. If there is some

resistance, gently tap the end of the screw with the handle of the screwdriver until screw is all the way out.

This wine cellar has 8 sliding shelves that can hold up to

12 bottles each, and either 6 bottles on the stationary

bottom rack, or 11 bottles in the bottom area with the

rack removed. It has a maximum capacity of 107

bottles, based on the standard Bordeaux size bottle.

Your total bottle capacity may vary depending upon the

size of the bottles in your collection, larger bottles will

decrease the capacity.
