PLACING THE CABINET

To assure maximum performance, fresh air must be allowed to circulate through the machinery compartment. It is important to allow at least two inched of clearance at the back or left end of the cabinet. Do not place anything in front of the cabinet that would obstruct air flow at these grilles. Do not place the unit in an unventilated small room.
CAUTION Removing the factory installed back clearance spacers without providing proper left side grill clearance for compressor air flow will void the warranty.

Cabinet should be leveled.
For sanitation purposes, it may be necessary to seal the base of the cabinet to the floor. This can be accomplished by laying a bead of silicone sealant along the base of the cabinet as shown by the figure below (figure 1).

A digital temperature control is located on the front face of the Bottle Cooler, above the condensing unit housing. It is factory set at approximately 38°F for standard refrigeration, 30°F for low temperature models, and 50°F for wine temperature models. Make adjustments as detailed below to attain the desired temperature.

Maintenance

CLEANING THE CONDENSER

DANGER Flammable Refrigerant.Risk of fire or explosion. Do not damage refrigeration tubes.

The condenser (located behind the from grille) should be inspected every 30 days, and cleaned, if necessary. Failure to
keep the condenser clean will cause a loss in condensing unit efficiency, or compressor failure.

CLEANING THE DOORS
Doors should be periodically removed from the cabinet and inspected for a buildup of foreign materials, such as syrups, beer, etc. Buildups on the underside of the doors, along with the cabinet breaker strips on which they ride, will cause them to bind, and therefore, not function as designed. If dirty, these surfaces should be cleaned with a mild detergent and water and then coated with an NSF certified silicone lubricating material.

To remove doors:
With door closed, lift it upward by its handle and slide forward until doors clears the cabinet top. Use the reverse procedure to reinstall the doors.

CLEANING THE CABINETS
Use a damp cloth with a mild detergent and water to clean the inside and outside of the cabinet. Dry thoroughly. Do not allow cleaning agents or large amounts of water to go down the drain. Use an acceptable stainless steel polish to clean all stainless steel surfaces. Never use steel wool or scouring pads to clean stainless steel.

Avoiding Stainless Steel Corrosion
Corrosion can be prevented by following product cautions, cleaning instructions and avoiding use of certain chemicals or objects which will cause stainless steel corrosion.

STAINLESS STEEL ENEMY

  • Steel wool or steel scouring pads
  • Cherry/Orange/Olive juice
  • Chlorine Bleach
  • Sharp Objects
