Care and Maintenance
Cleaning Your Azure Appliance
• Turn off the power, unplug the appliance, and remove all items including shelves and rack.
• Wash the inside surfaces with a warm water and baking soda solution. The solution should be about 2
tablespoons of baking soda to a pint of water.
• Wash the shelves with a mild detergent solution.
• Wring excess water out of the sponge or cloth when cleaning any area of the controls.
• Wash the outside cabinet with warm water and mild liquid detergent. Rinse well and wipe dry with a
clean soft cloth.
Power Failure
• Most power failures are corrected within a few hours and should not affect the temperature of your
appliance if you minimize the number of times the door is opened. If the power is going to be off for a
longer period of time, you need to take the proper steps to protect your contents.
Vacation Time
• Short holidays: Leave the appliance in operation for holidays of less than three weeks.
• Long absences: If the appliance will not be used for several months, remove all items, turn off the
appliance and unplug. Clean and dry the interior thoroughly.
o To prevent odor and mold growth, leave the door open slightly, blocking it open if
necessary.
Moving Your Wine Center
• Remove all items.
• Securely tape down all loose items (shelves) inside your appliance.
• Turn the adjustable leg all the way up (clockwise) to the base to avoid damage.
• Tape the door shut.
• Be sure the appliance stays secure in the upright position during transportation. Also protect outside of
appliance with a blanket, or similar item.
Energy Saving Tips
• The appliance should be located in the coolest area of the room, away from heat producing appliances,
and out of the direct sunlight.
• Ensure that the unit is adequately ventilated. Never cover air vents.
• Only open the door for as long as necessary.
