  • The location you have selected for your fridge should:
    • Be unencumbered and well ventilated
    • Be well away from any heat source and direct sunlight
    • Not be too damp (laundry, pantry, bathroom etc.)
    • Have a flat floor
    • Have a standard and reliable electricity supply (standard socket to country standards, linked to the ground), it is not recommended to use a multi-socket or extension lead
    • Have a surge protector fitted to the electrical outlet
    • Away from the microwave oven. Certain microwave ovens do not have wave interference shield. When placed within 1 meter vicinity of the wine cabinet, they may affect the operation of the fridge.
    • Avoid locating the unit in moist areas, like a garage.
  • The unit should be placed where the ambient temperature is proper. If the temperature is above or below this range, it will affect the performance of the unit. Placing in cold or hot temperature conditions may cause cellar’s temperatures fluctuating, and it will not reach the ideal one.

Installation

  • Read the instruction manual.
  • Unpack and remove all of the protection and adhesive strips from the packaging around and inside the fridge.
  • The fridge must be positioned such that the plug is accessible. Release the power cord. Move your fridge to its final location. The fridge should be installed in a suitable place where the compressor will not be subject to physical contact.

  • “built-in” fridges and beverage centers are front venting but are not designed to be fully integrated behind a joinery door.
  • Please follow the installation diagram when installing a built-in unit. No less than the minimum installation dimension or it will affect the venting of fridge.
  • built-in units draw air from right of the ventilation frame and expel it through left of the ventilation frame under the front door.
  • “built-in” fridges and beverage centers have a power switch located on the control panel so the power point location is not critical.
  • The unit requires a standard 120 volt power point.
  • The power cord is 1 m in length and is fixed on the right side at the back when looking from the front of fridge.
  • As with most appliances of today, the fridge has sensitive electronic components which are susceptible todamage through lightning and electricity supply faults. It is therefore advised to use a power surge protector to avoid problems of this nature.
  • Air vent on door must be provided for any built-in wine unit when a wood door is installed in front of the unit.

Electrical Connection

Improper use of the grounded plug can result in the risk of electrical shock. If the power cord is damaged, have it replaced by an authorized service center.
This appliance should be properly grounded for your safety. The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a three-prong plug which mates with standard three prong wall outlets to minimize the possibility of electrical shock.
Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the third ground prong from the power cord supplied. For personal safety, this appliance must be properly grounded.
This appliance requires a standard 115/120 Volt AC ~/60Hz electrical ground outlet with three-prong. Have the wall outlet and circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make sure the outlet is properly grounded. When a standard 2-prong wall outlet is encountered, it is your responsibility and obligation to have it replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong wall outlet. The cord should be secured behind the appliance and not left exposed or dangling to prevent accidental injury.
The appliance should always be plugged into its own individual electrical outlet which has a voltage rating that matches the rating label on the appliance. This provides the best performance and also prevent overloading house wiring circuits that could cause a fire hazard from overheated. Never unplug the appliance by pulling the power cord. Always grip the plug firmly and pull straight out from the receptacle. Repair or replace immediately all power cords that have become frayed or otherwise damaged. Do not use a cord that shows cracks or abrasion damage along its length or at either end. When moving the appliance, be careful not to damage the power cord.

Extension Cord
Because of potential safety hazards under certain conditions, it is strongly recommended that you do not use an extension cord with this appliance. However, if you must use an extension cord it is absolutely necessary that it be a UL/CUL-Listed, 3-wire grounding type appliance extension cord having a grounding type plug and outlet and that the electrical rating of the cord be 115 volts and at least 10 amperes.

OPERATING THE UNIT

Initial Use

Plug in and switch on the fridge by pressing on the power button for a few seconds.
When you use the fridge for the first time (or restart the fridge after having it shut off for a long time), there will be a few degrees variance between the temperature you have selected and the one indicated on the LED readout. This is normal and it is due to the length of the activation time. Once the fridge is running for a few hours everything will stabilize.
IMPORTANT: If the unit is unplugged, power is lost, or turned off, wait 3 to 5 minutes before restarting the unit. The fridge will not start if you attempt to restart before this time delay.
Control Panel Lock
The unit is equipped with an automatic control panel lock function. This function will prevent any unwanted changes to your temperature or power settings. The lock function will activate automatically 5 seconds after the last time a button is pushed on the control panel.
To unlock the control panel lock, press and hold both the and buttons for 3 seconds the control panel will beep and blink once indicating that the control panel is active and the settings can be changed. You must unlock the control panel every time you want to set the temperature, change the display setting (°F/°C) turn on or off the light and to power off the fridge.

Control panel for FridgeVEVOR BC-145A1EQ Undercounter 5.12 Cu.ft Double
Drawer Beverage Fridge fig 4

To control the temperature: The left LCD chamber indicates the setting temp, ranging from 1℃~10℃ ( 34℉-50℉),when temperature is set between 1℃~10℃(34℉-50℉),the indicator corresponding the chamber on the left side will flash. The digital tube on the right chamber indicates the actual temp inside the fridge, ranging from 0~37℃(32℉-99℉)
The user can re-set temp inside the fridge based on actual requirement, after start working, the fridge will keep on refrigerating till it reaches the set temp, and work around setting temp within range of ±2°. Under the circumstances of power stop or cutting in the process of normal operation, the last setting figure can be automatically memorized by the fridge.

Light ON/OFF: There is a light in the fridge.The light is controlled by two door pressure switches.When both drawers are closed, the light goes off automatically, and when either drawer is pulled out, the light goes on.

To change the temperature display: The temperature displayed can be in Fahrenheit or Celsius. Press the button to switch between °F and °C.

Service and Preservation Temperature

It is recommended you install the fridge in a place where the ambient temperature is between 1ºC-32ºC (34ºF-89ºF). If the ambient temperature is above or below recommended temperatures, the performance of the unit may be affected. For example, placing your fridge in extreme cold or hot conditions may cause interior temperatures to fluctuate. The range of 1ºC-10ºC (34ºF- 50ºF) may not be reached.

Temperature Settings

IMPORTANT : The LED displays by default the actual internal air temperature.

The temperature settings are pre-set at the factory as follows. In the event of a power interruption, all previous temperature settings are automatically erased and it will revert to the pre-set temperature settings. The electrical board of all models comes with memory function.

It is important to understand that there is a difference between the air temperature inside the fridge and the actual temperature of the drinks: You will need to wait approximately 3 hours before noticing the effects of temperature adjustment due to the critical mass within a full fridge.
