What’s in the box? Instruction manual Keys Spare parts (hopefully you won’t need these) I received my wine cabinet, now what? Your wine cabinet was designed to be built into kitchen or bar cabinets or it will work just fine as a stand alone appliance. Your choice. You should place your wine cabinet on a flat, solid floor that is strong enough to support it when it is fully loaded (300-700 lbs). To level your wine cellar, adjust the front leveling leg at the bottom of the wine cabinet.

REVERSE THE DOOR SWING For under counter models: RW58SR, RW88SR, RW88DR, RW116DR, RW145SR, RW145DR and RW145DRE Remarks These instructions are based on a wine refrigerator assembled with a right hinged door. To reserve the door from right hinge to left hinge, you need to retrieve the Upper Left Hinge, and a Bottom Left Hinge from the spare parts pack shipped with your appliance * Save all extra hinges in case you need to change the direction of the door swing in the future.
3. Unscrew the upper hinge and bottom hinge. 4. Pry out the plastic caps on the left side of the cabinet, and move them to the right side. 5. Install the hinge set that was included with your instruction manual on the opposite side. 6. Rotate the door 180o so that the top is now the bottom, and install it by attaching the support rod with screws.
For large capacity models: RW428SR, RW428DR and RW490SR Before you begin: Tape down shelves to avoid movement during the process These instructions are based on a wine refrigerator assembled with a right hinged door. The door of this appliance can be hung to open on the left or right side. To reverse the door swing of your cellar and open from the opposite side, please follow the instructions and diagram below.
1. Pry up the hinge cover (1) and hinge cap (2) using a flat head screwdriver. Using a Phillips head screwdriver, loosen the hinge screws (3a) and remove the top hinge (4). You can now lift the door (5) off the bottom hinge and set it off to one side. Be careful not to lose the washer (11) between the bottom hinge and the door. You will need this later.

Wine Refrigerator Quick Start The control panel of your wine refrigerator has a saftey feature that prevents someone from accidentally changing the temperature or shutting the appliance off. If left untouched for 10 seconds, the control panel will lock and be unresponsive to touch. To unlock your wine refrigerator, press both power and light at the same time and hold for 5 seconds. The display will unlock and allow you to change the temperatures and turn the lights on or off.
Best way to store bottles Your cabinet was designed to store a maximum number of bottles. We recommend that you observe the tips below to optimize loading. Disperse the bottles evenly to avoid concentrating weight in one place. Bottles must not touch either the back of the cabinet or the step at the bottom. Make sure that the bottles are not all grouped together either at the top or bottom of the cabinet. Only pull out one shelf at a time. Never attempt to pull more than one.
