TYPES OF INSTALLATION: This wine 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 refrigerator in almost any place you desire. You must follow the stated instructions for electrical requirements and leveling the wine refrigerator.
LEVELING: The wine refrigerator should be installed on a firm and level surface that will be able to support the entire weight of a fully loaded unit. It is important for the wine refrigerator to be leveled in order to work properly. It can be raised or lowered by rotating the plastic sheaths around each of the feet on the bottom of the machine. If you find that the surface is not level, rotate the feet until the wine refrigerator becomes level. You may need to make several adjustments to level it.
INSTALLING THE SHELVES: 1. Open the door completely. 2. Line up the shelf notches with the rail posts on both the right and left sides. 3. Push the shelf down and then push it all the way inwards until the shelf fully rests inside of the unit and you are able to close the door. 4. The shelf should glide smoothly back and forth. If it does not, you may need to remove it and start over. Tip: To prevent damaging the door gasket, make sure to open the door fully before pulling the shelves out of their tracks.
Operation INSTALLATION CHECK‐LIST BEFORE OPERATION: 1. Have all packing materials and tape been removed from the interior and exterior of the wine refrigerator? 2. Have the installation instructions been followed, including connecting the machine to electricity? 3. Has proper grounding been installed for the wine refrigerator? 4. Has the machine been leveled? 5. Is the wine refrigerator in a site where the ambient temperature is between 50° F and 90° F all year round? 6.
