Installing Your Wine and Beverage Refrigerator
The wine and beverage refrigerator should be installed in accordance with local electrical code
requirements. It should also be placed in a location that is strong enough to support its total weight, keeping
in mind that it will weigh substantially more when fully loaded than when empty.
Before you plug the wine and beverage refrigerator into a power supply, be sure to let it stand upright for
at least 24 hours to allow the compressor’s oils to settle.
TYPES OF INSTALLATION:
This wine and beverage refrigerator has been designed for free-standing or built-in installation. In every
case, there must be adequate ventilation and access for service.
Free-standing Installation
A free-standing installation will allow you to install the wine and beverage refrigerator in almost any
place you desire. You must follow the stated instructions for electrical requirements and leveling the
wine and beverage refrigerator.
Note: The carbon filter should be replaced every 3 - 6 months depending on the unit’s exposure level to
odor. If the unit is placed in a kitchen, regular replacement every three (3) months is ideal.
Tip: Gather the model and serial number from the product label and write them down before installing the
wine and beverage cooler.
Warning: Use two or more people to move and install the wine and beverage refrigerator. Failure to do so
can result in back or other injury. Carefully remove the packaging materials. Remove any shipping tape and
glue from your wine and beverage refrigerator before using. Do not use sharp instruments, rubbing
alcohol, flammable fluids, or abrasive cleaners to remove tape or glue. These products can damage the
surface of your wine and beverage refrigerator.
Important: Do not remove any safety, warning, or product information labels from your wine and beverage
refrigerator.
