  •  When setting up the device, make sure that the power cord is not pinched or damaged.
  •  Make sure that there are no multiple sockets or power supply units on the back of the device.
  •  Make sure that the ventilation openings in the housing of the unit or in the built-in cabinet are not blocked.
  •  Do not use mechanical devices or other means to speed up the defrosting process unless they are expressly recommended by the manufacturer.
  •  The refrigerant circuit must not be damaged.
  •  Do not use electrical appliances in the beverage cooling compartments of the appliance unless they are specifically recommended by the manufacturer.
  •  Do not store explosive substances in the unit, such as spray cans with flammable propellant.
  •  This appliance is intended for use in households and similar environments. These include:
    •  Staff kitchens in shops, offices and other work environments
    •  Farms, hotels, motels and other residential establishments
    •  Pensions that offer breakfast (Bed & Breakfasts)
    •  Catering and similar non-retail applications
  •  Children aged 3 to 8 may fill refrigerators with food and remove food.

To avoid contamination of food, please follow the instructions below:

• Opening the door for too long can cause a significant temperature rise in the compartments of the appliance.
• Regularly clean surfaces that may come into contact with drinks. Clean the water drain regularly.
• Clean the water tanks (if present) if they have not been used for 48 hours. Flush the water system connected to a water supply (if any) if no water has been drawn for 5 days.
• If you are not using the refrigerator for a longer period of time, switch it off, let it defrost, clean it and dry it. Leave the door open to prevent mold from forming in the appliance.

Note:
This unit contains the refrigerant Isobutane (R600a), a natural gas that has high environmental compatibility but is flammable. Although it is flammable, it does not damage the ozone layer or increase the greenhouse effect. The use of this refrigerant results in a slightly higher noise level of the unit. In addition to the compressor noise, you can hear the flow of refrigerants. This is unavoidable and has no negative effect on the performance of the device. Be careful during transport to avoid damage to the refrigerant circuit. Refrigerant leaks can irritate the eyes. ****

WARNING
When using, during maintenance and when disposing of the appliance, pay attention to the left symbol located on the back or on the compressor of the appliance. This symbol warns you of possible fi res. There are flammable substances in the refrigerant lines and in the compressor. Keep the appliance away from sources of fi re during use, maintenance and disposal.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

BEFORE FIRST USE

Before installation
Before connecting the wine cooler to the power source, let it stand upright for approximately 4 hours. This will reduce the possibility of a malfunction in the cooling system from improper handling during transportation. Clean the interior surface with lukewarm water using a soft cloth (see Maintenance and Cleaning).

Installation

  •  This wine cooler is designed to be free-standing only, and should not be recessed or built-in.
  •  Allow 5 inches of space between the back and sides of the wine cooler, which allows the proper air ventilation. Adjust the feet to keep the wine cooler level. Locate the wine cooler away from direct sunlight and sources of heat (stove, heater, radiator, etc.). Direct sunlight may affect the acrylic coating and heat sources may increase electrical consumption. Ambient temperature below 5°C or above 32°C will hinder the performance of this appliance.
  •  Depending on the location of the appliance, the direction of the door opens can be changed.
  •  This unit is not designed for use in a garage or any other outside installation.
  •  Avoid locating the wine cooler in moist areas.
  •  Plug the wine cooler into dedicated, properly installed-grounded wall outlet. Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord. Any questions concerning power and/or grounding should be directed toward a certified electrician or an authorized service center.
  •  This unit is not designed to be installed in an RV or used with an inverter.
  •  After plugging the wine cooler into a wall outlet, turn the unit on and allow the unit to cool down for 3-4 hours under before placing wine bottles or beverages in the appliance.
  •  Keep ventilation openings in the appliance enclosure, clear of obstruction.

OPERATION

Control Panel and Buttons

Selector Display
Switching display temperatures in Celsius or Fahrenheit. To choose one of these displays press the button for 5 seconds.

Select the Temperature
Your wine cellar has one single compartment. The temperature can be chosen between 5°C and 18°C (40° and 65°F).

Before switching on

  •  Make sure that it has been installed by a suitably qualified person, as per the information contained in the installation instructions.
  •  After delivery, wait for 24 hours before connecting the appliance to your mains supply. This will allow any refrigerant gasses that may have been disturbed during the transportation process to settle.
  •  The outside of the appliance and the removable accessories contained within it, should be cleaned with a solution of liquid detergent and water.
  •  The interior of the appliance should be cleaned with a solution of sodium bicarbonate dissolved in lukewarm water. The interior and accessories should be thoroughly dried, after the cleaning process has been completed.
  •  There can be an odor when you first switch on the appliance. It will lessen as the appliance starts to cool.

During first use

Important: When you use the wine cooler for the first time or restart the appliance after it has been turned off for a long time, there could be a few degrees variance between the temperature you select and the one indicated on the LED display. This is normal and it is due to the length of activation time. Once the wine cooler has been running for a few hours everything will be back to normal.

  •  When you first switch on the appliance, the compressor will run continuously until the wine cooler reaches a cool enough temperature.
  •  During this period of time, you should try not to open the door frequently or place bottles inside of the appliance.
  •  If the unit is switched off or unplugged, you must allow at least 5 minutes before restarting the appliance or reconnecting it to your mains supply.

Switching on the appliance and setting the temperature

  •  To switch the appliance on, press the Power button and hold 5 seconds, turn the appliance off again, press and hold the Power button for 5 seconds.
  •  When you press the TEMPERATURE SET BUTTONS [+] or [-] for the first time, the LED display will indicate the factory preset temperature.
  •  Press the TEMPERATURE SET BUTTONS [+] or [-] once. The display will increase or decrease 1°C or 1°F until the temperature you want.
  •  To see the set temperature at any time, touch the buttons UP BUTTON [+] or DOWN BOTTON [-] set temperatures temporarily flash on the display for about 5 seconds.

Loading the wine cooler

Important: Your appliance is ideally suited to store 0.75-liter Bordeaux- style wine bottles. Whilst it can store larger bottles, you must make sure that they do not prevent the door from shutting properly.

  •  Always check that you can close the door without it fouling on a wine bottle, before shutting it.
  •  When loading several bottles of wine at once, it will take longer for the appliance to cool the individual bottles.
  •  As many bottles may differ in size and dimensions, the actual number of bottles you are able to store may vary.
  •  The maximum storage number is based on standard 0.75-liter Bordeaux-style wine bottles.
