SAFETY INFORMATION & WARNINGS

When using any electrical appliance, basic safety precautions must be followed in order to reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock and/or injury to persons or property. Be sure to read all instructions before using this appliance and observe the following safety tips:

Attention: To prevent the risk of child entrapment, do not allow children to operate, play with, or crawl inside the unit. If the unit will not be used for an extended period of time, remove the door and leave the shelves in place so that children cannot crawl inside. Also remove the door when disposing of the unit.
Never clean the appliance parts with flammable fluids, as the fumes can create a fire hazard or explosion. Do not store or use gasoline or any other flammable vapors and liquids near this or any other appliance.
Do not store perishable foods in the wine cooler, as the interior temperature will not be low enough to prevent food spoilage.
Shock Hazard Electrical Grounding Required
This cooler should be properly grounded for your safety, and in order to minimize the possibility of electrical shock, the power cord of this unit is equipped with a 3-prong plug which fits 3-prong wall outlets. Improper use of the grounded plug can result in electrical shock.
If the power cord appears to be damaged, have it replaced by an authorized service center.
Never cut or remove the ground wire from the supplied power cord.
The use of an extension cord is not recommended.
The cord should be secured behind the cooler. Also, to prevent accidental injury, do not expose or dangle the cord.

ASSEMBLY & INSTALLATION

HANDLE ASSEMBLY

Tools Required for Assembly: Phillips screwdriver (not included)
Estimated Assembly Time: 5 minutes

Before installation, attach the handle to the front of the unit with the included screws. It may be necessary to push aside the rubber seal on the inside of the door to reveal the screw holes.

Caution: Avoid over-tightening the screws, or you may cause damage to the unit.

INSTALLATION

This cooler is a freestanding unit and should not be installed inside a cabinet or other built-in enclosure.

For proper ventilation, allow 5 inches clearance between the back of the unit and any adjacent walls.

Before operating your wine cooler for the first time, follow these steps:

Clean the interior surface of the unit with lukewarm water and a soft cloth.
Place the cooler on a level surface that will be strong enough to support the unit when it is fully loaded. To level your cooler, adjust the front feet located at the bottom of the unit.
Install the cooler away from direct sunlight and heat sources such as stoves, heaters, or radiators. Direct sunlight may affect the unit’s acrylic coating, and nearby heat sources can increase electrical consumption. Extreme cold or hot ambient temperatures may also prevent proper performance.
Please note: this cooler is only designed for home use, and is not designed to be placed in a garage, basement, or outdoor area.

FACTORY ODOR REMOVAL

Wash the interior of the cooler with a mild detergent and warm water. Leave the door open and allow it to air dry thoroughly. If a “plastic” smell persists, place a dish of baking soda in the unit or stuff the cooler with newspapers overnight. When finished, let the unit run a full day to complete the airing out process.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

OPERATING ENVIRONMENT

It is recommended that the wine cooler be installed in an area where the ambient temperature is between 50°- 80°F (10°-26°C). If the ambient temperature is above or below the recommended ranges, the unit’s performance may be affected, and extreme cold or hot conditions may cause the interior temperature to fluctuate. This will prevent the optimal range of 50°- 60°F (10°-16°C) from being reached. In addition, keep in mind that the temperature may fluctuate depending on whether the interior light is on or off, and whether the bottles are located on the upper, middle, or lower racks.

HOW TO USE THE BUTTONS ON THE DISPLAY PANEL

The interior temperature of the upper zone can be adjusted in increments of 1 degree between 44°F and 66°F (7° – 18°C).
The interior temperature of the lower zone can be adjusted in increments of 1 degree between 50°F and 66°F (10° – 18°C).

After turning on the wine cooler, the LED display will show the ambient temperature first, and then the internal cabinet temperature.

After you set the desired temperature, this set temperature will flash for 5 seconds on the display and then revert back to the internal cabinet temperature.

CLEANING & MAINTENANCE

CLEANING YOUR COOLER

To clean your cooler:

Unplug the cooler and remove anything inside.
Wash the inside of the unit with a solution made of warm water and baking soda (2 tablespoons of baking soda to one quarter of water).
Unscrew the water reservoir at the bottom of the unit and rinsewith water.
To clean the outside of the unit, use a mild detergent and warm water.

MOVING YOUR COOLER

To move your cooler:

Remove anything stored inside.
Securely tape down all loose parts located inside the unit.
Turn the leveling feet up to the base in order to avoid damage.
Tape the door shut.
Be sure the cooler stays in an upright position during transportation.

WINE STORAGE GUIDE

The ideal temperature for storing red or white wines is 55°F, with humidity between 60% and 75% RH.
Store corked bottles on their sides, to keep the cork from drying out and allowing air into the bottle.
UV rays make wine age faster, so keep bottles out of direct sunlight. · Avoid heavy vibrations from motors, etc.
Store wine separately from strong odors that might contaminate the flavor of the wine.

How Long Should I Store My Wine?

While most wines today are meant to be drunk “young” (within a few years of production) some fine wines are best served by proper aging. But aging too long can decrease the flavor of the wine. Generally speaking, red wines can age longer than white wines, but here is a storage guide for some popular vintages.

Cabernet Sauvignon………… 7-10 years
Pinot Noir…………………………. 5 years
Merlot………………………………. 3-5 years
Zinfandel…………………………… 2-5 years
Beaujolais…………………………. Drink now
Chardonnay………………………. 2-3 years
Riesling……………………………… 3-5 years
Sauvignon Blanc……………… 18 months – 2 years
Pinot Gris………………………….. 1-2 years
Champagne ……………………… Ready to drink
