Settings and Functions TriTemp™ Storage System Your wine cellar has three independent temperature zones separated by gaskets and tempered glass shelves to seal the zones. This allows you to set the temperatures in your wine cellar to match your wine storage needs. Each zone has its own fan, allowing for true air circulation within the zone. One control, conveniently located at the top of the unit, allows you to precisely control the temperature in each zone separately.
Before Using Your Wine Cellar To obtain the best possible results from your wine cellar, it is important that you operate it properly.

Wine Storage System CAUTION To store magnum or oversized bottles, the shelf directly above must be removed. Failure to do so could result in bottle breakage. See “Shelf Removal” section for proper shelf removal. Versatile Shelving System Your wine cellar's shelving system makes it easy to store standard, magnum and half-size bottles easily. There are a total of fifteen wine shelves which will each accommodate 10 standard bottles of wine, alternately displayed.
Convertible Display Shelves Your wine cellar has two convertible display shelves - one in each of the top two compartments. To use the display shelf, first remove any wine bottles stored on the shelf. Next, remove the wine shelf directly above (see Shelf Removal section). Lift the shelf up, rotate the shelf support up and lock shelf into place with legs (see illustration below). Shelf Support Wood Facings Maple wood facings are included with each shelf.
Changing Light Tube (middle zone) To change the light tube, first remove the center grille assembly and turn the power ON/OFF switch to the OFF position (see the Before Using Your Wine Cellar section). 1. Remove the lamp wire cover by removing the two screws located on the upper left side of the middle zone. (NOTE: ONLY REMOVE THE TWO SCREWS HOLDING THE WIRE COVER; DO NOT REMOVE SHELF MOUNTING SCREWS). 2. Set the wire cover and screws to the side. 3.
Wine Storage Guidelines Wines that are stored for a long period of time should be stored at a stable temperature in a dark, vibration free environment. Wines stored for a short term (six months) can be stored at 55°F (13°C), or they can be stored at temperatures optimal for serving. •The ambient temperature of the room you locate your wine cellar in could affect the temperature in your wine cellar if the room temperature is lower than the wine cellar compartment setting.
