** Minimum rough-in opening required is to be larger than the adjusted height of the cabinet.
A grounded 15 amp dedicated circuit is required. Follow all local building
codes when installing electrical and appliance.
INSTALLING YOUR APPLIANCE
Select Location
The proper location will ensure peak performance of your appliance. We
recommend a location where the unit will be out of direct sunlight and away
from heat sources. To ensure your product performs to specifications, the
recommended installation location temperature range is from 55 to 100°F (13 to
38°C).
Cabinet Clearance
Ventilation is required from the bottom front of the appliance. Keep this area
open and clear of any obstructions. Adjacent cabinets and counter top can be
installed around the appliance as long as the front grille remains
unobstructed.
All Marvel Professional models with articulated hinges are intended for built-
in applications only.
WARNING
An optional stacking kit, for 24″ wide models, is required to stack products.
Failure to use a stacking kit could result in personal injury. Contact your
dealer or Marvel customer service at
616-754-5601 to order.
For safety concerns 15″ wide models should not be stacked.
Front Grille
Do not obstruct the front grille. The openings within the front grille allow
air to flow through the condenser heat exchanger. Restrictions to this air
flow will result in increased energy usage and loss of cooling capacity. For
this reason it is important this area to not be obstructed and the grille
openings kept clean. Marvel does not recommend the use of a custom made grille
as air flow may be restricted.
Leveling Legs
Adjustable legs at the front and rear corners of the appliance should be set
so the unit is firmly positioned on the floor and level from side to side and
front to back. The overall height of your Marvel appliance may be adjusted
higher (by turning the leveling leg out, CCW) and lower (by turning the
leveling leg in, CW).
To adjust the leveling legs, place the appliance on a solid surface and
protect the floor beneath the legs to avoid scratching the floor. With the
assistance of another person, lean the appliance back to access the front
leveling legs. Raise or lower the legs to the required dimension by turning
the legs. Repeat this process for the rear by tilting the appliance forward
using caution. On a level surface check the appliance for levelness and adjust
accordingly.
The front grille screws may be loosened and the grille adjusted to the desired
height. When adjustment is complete tighten the two front grille screws.
SIDE-BY-SIDE AND STACKING INSTALLATIONS
Side-by-Side Installation Other Site Requirements
Units must operate from separate, properly grounded electrical receptacles
placed according to each unit’s electrical specifications requirements.
Cutout width for a side-by-side installation is the total of the widths listed
under Cutout Dimensions in each unit’s Installation Guide. Each door can be
opened individually (one at a time) without interference.
However, to ensure unobstructed door swing (opening both doors at the same time), 1/4″ (6.4 mm) of space needs to be maintained between the units.
Hinge-by-Hinge Installation (Mullion)
When installing two units hinge-by-hinge, 13/16″ (22 mm) is required for
integrated models. Additional space may be needed for any knobs, pulls or
handles installed.
Stainless steel models which include the standard stainless handle will require 4-9/16″ (116 mm) to allow both doors to open to 90° at the same time.
INSTALLING THE ANTI TIP DEVICE
WARNING
- ALL APPLIANCES CAN TIP RESULTING IN INJURY.
- INSTALL THE ANTI-TIP BRACKET PACKED WITH THE APPLIANCE.
- FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS BELOW
Anti-Tip Device
WARNING
If your beverage center is not located under a counter top (free standing),
you must use an anti-tip device installed as per these instructions. If the
beverage center is removed from its location for any reason, make sure that
the device is properly engaged with the anti-tip bracket when you push the
beverage center back into the original location. If the device is not properly
engaged, there is a risk of the beverage center tipping over, with the
potential for property damage or personal injury.
NOTE
If installing on a concrete floor, concrete fasteners are required, (not
included with the anti-tip kit).
CAUTION
Any finished flooring should be protected with appropriate material to avoid
damage when moving the unit.
Floor Mount Installation
The anti-tip bracket is to be located on the floor in the left or right rear
corner of the wine cellar as shown in Figure 14.
Step by step instructions for locating the position of the bracket:
- Decide where you want to place the beverage center. Slide it into place, being careful not to damage the floor, leaving 1″ (2.5 cm) of clearance from the rear wall to allow room for the anti-tip bracket.
- Raise the rear leveling legs approximately 1⁄4″ (6 mm) to allow engagement with the anti-tip bracket. Level the unit by adjusting all the leveling legs as required. Turning the leveling leg counterclockwise will raise the unit and clockwise will lower the unit.
- Make sure the beverage center is in the desired location, then mark on the floor the rear and side corner of the cabinet where the anti-tip bracket will be installed. If the installation does not allow marking the rear corner of the cabinet, then make temporary lines on the floor marking the front corner of the cabinet, excluding the door. Slide the beverage center out of the way. From the temporary line extend the sidewall line back 21 1⁄2″ (54.6 cm) as shown in Figure 15.
- Align the anti-tip bracket to the marks on the floor so the side of the bracket lines up with the side of the cabinet mark, and the “V” notches on the anti-tip bracket line up with the end of the 21 1⁄2″ (54.6 cm) line (Rear of cabinet line).
- Fasten the anti-tip bracket to the floor using the supplied screw. (See Figure 15).
- Slide the cabinet back into position, making sure the rear cabinet leveling leg slides under the anti-tip bracket engaging the slot.
INSTALLING THE ANTI TIP DEVICE
NOTE
When the floor mounted anti-tip bracket is used the minimum adjusted height of
the cabinet is increased by 3⁄8″ (9 mm).
DRAWER DIVIDER
Drawer Divider
The top and bottom drawer have an adjustable drawer divider. To adjust the
divider, making the 4 areas larger or smaller, move the center post along the
length of the rods in either direction. See Figure 16 and 16a. The divider can
also be removed from the drawer.

CARE AND CLEANING
Front Grille
Be sure that nothing obstructs the required air flow openings in front of the
cabinet.
At least once or twice a year, brush or vacuum lint and dirt from the front
grille area (see page 8).
CAUTION
SHOCK HAZARD : Disconnect electrical power from the appliance before
cleaning with soap and water.
Cabinet
The painted cabinet can be washed with either a mild soap and water and
thoroughly rinsed with clear water. NEVER use abrasive scouring cleaners.
Interior
Wash interior compartment with mild soap and water. Do NOT use an abrasive
cleaner, solvent, polish cleaner or undiluted detergent.
Care of Appliance
- Avoid leaning on the door, you may bend the door hinges or tip the appliance.
- Exercise caution when sweeping, vacuuming or mopping near the front of the appliance. Damage to the grille can occur.
- Periodically clean the interior of the appliance as needed.
- Periodically check and/or clean the front grille as needed.
In the Event of a Power Failure
If a power failure occurs, try to correct it as soon as possible. Minimize the
number of door openings while the power is off so as not to adversely affect
the appliance’s temperature.
Light assembly replacement
All models use an LED to illuminate the interior of the appliance. This
component is very reliable, but should it fail, contact a qualified service
technician for replacement of the LED.
STAINLESS STEEL MAINTENANCE
Background
Stainless steel does not stain, corrode, or rust as easily as ordinary
steel, but it is not stain or corrosion proof. Stainless steels can discolor
or corrode if not maintained properly.
Stainless steels differ from ordinary carbon steels by the amount of chromium
present. It is this chromium that provides an invisible protective film on the
surface called chrome-oxide. This protective chrome-oxide film on the surface
can be damaged or contaminated, which may result in discoloration, staining,
or corrosion of the base metal.
Care & Cleaning
Routine cleaning of the stainless steel surfaces will serve to greatly
extend the life of your product by removing contaminants. This is especially
important in coastal areas which can expose the stainless to severe
contaminants such as halide salts, (sodium chloride).
It is strongly recommended to periodically inspect and thoroughly clean
crevices, weld points, under gaskets, rivets, bolt heads, and any locations
where small amounts of liquid could collect, become stagnant, and concentrate
contaminates. Additionally, any mounting hardware that is showing signs of
corrosion should be replaced.
Frequency of cleaning will depend upon the installation location,
environmental, and usage conditions.
Choosing a Cleaning Product
The choice of a proper cleaning product is ultimately that of the consumer,
and there are many products from which to choose. Depending upon the type of
cleaning and the degree of contamination, some products are better than
others.
Typically the most effective and efficient means for routine cleaning of most
stainless steel products is to give the surfaces a brisk rubbing with a soft
cloth soaked in warm water and a gentle detergent, or mild mixture of ammonia.
Rubbing should, to the extent possible, follow the polish lines of the steel,
and always insure thorough rinsing after cleaning. Although some products are
called “stainless steel cleaners,” some may contain abrasives which could
scratch the surface, (compromising the protective chrome-oxide film), and
some many contain chlorine bleach which will dull, tarnish or discolor the
surface if not completely removed. After the stainless surfaces have been
thoroughly cleaned, a good quality car wax may be applied to help maintain the
finish.
NOTE
Stainless steel products should never be installed, or stored in close
proximity to chlorine chemicals.
Whichever cleaning product you chose, it should be used in strict accordance
with the instructions of the cleaner manufacturer.
ENERGY SAVING TIPS
The following suggestions will minimize the cost of operating your refrigeration appliance.
- Do not install your appliance next to a hot appliance (cooker, dishwasher, etc.), heating air duct, or other heat sources.
- Install product out of direct sunlight.
- Ensure the front grille vents at front of appliance beneath door are not obstructed and kept clean to allow ventilation for the refrigeration system to expel heat.
- Plug your appliance into a dedicated power circuit. (Not shared with other appliances).
- When initially loading your new product, or whenever large quantities of warm contents are placed within refrigerated storage compartment, minimize door openings for the next 12 hours to allow contents to pull down to compartment set temperature.
- Maintaining a relatively full storage compartment will require less appliance run time than an empty compartment.
- Ensure door closing is not obstructed by contents stored in your appliance.
- Allow hot items to reach room temperature before placing in product.
- Minimize door openings and duration of door openings.
- Use the warmest temperature control set temperature that meets your personal preference and provides the proper storage for your stored contents.
- When on vacation or away from home for extended periods, set the appliance to warmest acceptable temperature for the stored contents.
- Set the control to the “off” position if cleaning the appliance requires the door to be open for an extended period of time.
- For wine storage products:
When serving temperatures are not required, return the compartment(s) set temperature to the ideal red and white wine long term storage temperature of 13°C / 55°F.
EXTENDED NON-USE
Vacation/Holiday, Prolonged Shutdown
The following steps are recommended for periods of extended non-use:
- Remove all consumable content from the unit.
- Disconnect the power cord from its outlet/socket and leave it disconnected until the unit is returned to service.
- If ice is on the evaporator, allow ice to thaw naturally.
- Clean and dry the interior of the unit. Ensure all water has been removed from the unit.
- The door must remain open to prevent formation of mold and mildew. Open door a minimum of 2″ (50 mm) to provide the necessary ventilation.

CONVECTION COOLING
This unit is equipped with an advanced convection cooling system. Convection
cooling stabilizes cabinet temperature, cools product faster and increases
energy efficiency.
Evaporator Fan
The evaporator fan is responsible for circulating warm air from the
refrigeration zone, past the evaporator and back into the refrigerated zone.
The evaporator fan is factory set to have a 1 minute delay at the beginning of
a cooling cycle. This delay gives the evaporator time to cool properly before
warm air is passed over it. The fan will continue to run for an additional 2
minutes at the end of a cooling cycle. Fan delay times can be modified through
the service menu.
Evaporator fan operation is also determined by door switch state. If the door
switch circuit opens, the fan will stop.
When the door switch circuit is closed the fan will either continue running
with the cooling cycle, or if not currently cooling, the fan will run for 1
minute to circulate air and clear any condensation that may have appeared on
glass doors and shelves.
Note: If the unit is set to sabbath mode, the evaporator fan will no
longer respond to the state of the door switch.
In order to operate efficiently, the evaporator fan blade and vents should be
unobstructed and free of any dust buildup.
