Use and Care

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Before Using your Appliance

• Remove the exterior and interior packing.

• Before connecting the appliance to the power source, let it stand upright for approximately 2 hours.

This will reduce the possibility of a malfunction in the cooling system from handling during

transportation.

• Clean the interior surface with lukewarm water using a soft cloth.

• Install the handle on the door. (See page 10.)

Installation of your Appliance

• The appliance is designed for built-in, recessed or free-standing installation.

• WARNING: Do not store or install the appliance outdoors.

CAUTION: This appliance is designed for storing and cooling wines. Do not store perishable food,

medicine or other medical products.

• Place your Wine Cellar on a floor that is strong enough to support it when it is fully loaded. To

level the unit, adjust the front adjustable legs.

• For freestanding installation, 5” (127mm) of space at the back and sides of the unit and 4“

(102mm) at the top are suggested, which allows the proper air circulation to cool the compressor

and condenser for energy saving.

• For built-in installation, it is a must to keep at least 3/16” (5mm) of space on each side, 2” (50mm)

at the back and 1/16” (1.6mm) at the top to ensure proper service access and ventilation. The air

vent at the front of the appliance must never be covered or blocked in any way.

CAUTION: Make sure that the socket and ON/OFF switch are easily accessible after the appliance

has been installed.

• Plug the Wine Cellar into an exclusive, properly grounded wall outlet. Do not under any circum-

stances cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord. Any questions concerning

power and/or grounding should be directed toward a certified electrician or an authorized service

center.

NOTE: It is recommended that you do not install the appliance near an oven, radiator or other heating

source. Direct sunlight may affect the acrylic coating and heat sources may increase

electrical consumption. Do not install in a location where the temperature will fall below 60°F

(16°C). For best performance, do not install the appliance behind a cabinet door or block the

base grille.

• Avoid locating the unit in moist areas.
