Owners Guide

Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems of the past. Junked or abandoned appliances

are still dangerous, even if they will “just sit in the garage a few days”.

 Before you throw away your old wine cooler or any appliance: Remove the door. Leave

the shelves in place so that children may not easily climb inside.

 Never allow children to operate, play with, or crawl inside the appliance.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Before Using Your Appliance

 Remove the exterior and interior packing.

 CAUTION: After unpacking you MUST allow this appliance to stand upright for at least 2 hours to

allow the lubricant and refrigerant to drain back into the compressor and stabilize. Failure to do so

may adversely affect performance and the lifetime of this unit.

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

Installation of Your Appliance

 This appliance is designed for free standing or built-in (fully recessed) installation. If free standing,

the unit should have at least 4” of clearance at both sides, at the top and at the back to allow for

adequate ventilation. If it is built-in, leave 3/16” at both sides, 1/16” at the top and 2” at the rear. Be

sure that airflow under the appliance is not blocked.

 Place your appliance on a floor that is strong enough to support it when it is fully loaded. To level

your appliance, adjust the front leveling legs at the bottom.

 Locate the appliance away from direct sunlight and sources of heat (stove, heater, radiator, etc.).

Direct sunlight may affect the acrylic coating and heat sources may increase electrical

consumption. Extremely cold ambient temperatures may also cause the unit not to perform

properly.

 Avoid locating the unit in moist areas.

 Plug the appliance into an exclusive, properly installed and grounded wall outlet. Do not under any

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

concerning power and/or grounding should be directed toward a certified and authorized products

service center.

Reversing the Door Swing

This appliance has the capability of the door opening from either the left or right side. The unit is

delivered to you with the door opening from the left side. Should you desire to reverse the opening

direction, please follow the instructions below. To make the reversal, you will find two hardware pieces

in a plastic bag inside the appliance: the top left hinge and the bottom left hinge. The bottom support

bracket is used for both sides.

1. Carefully lay the appliance on its back. Use cushioning to protect the floor and appliance.

2. Using a Philips screwdriver, remove the two screws and bottom right hinge beneath the door.

Keep the hinge in a safe place in case you need to reverse the door again in the future.

3. Carefully slide the door off and place it on a padded surface.

4. Interchange the plastic shaft sleeves at the top of the door.

5. Remove the bottom support bracket from the right side.
