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 countertop (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 installed 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 corners 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 211⁄2″ (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 211⁄2″ (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.
NOTE
When the floor-mounted anti-tip bracket is used the mini-mum adjusted height
of the cabinet is increased by 3⁄8″ (9 mm).
INTERIOR ADJUSTMENTS

- 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 the replacement of the LED.
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 the product out of direct sunlight.
- Ensure the front grille vents at front of the appliance be-neath 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 the refrigerated storage compartment, minimize door openings for the next 12 hours to allow contents to pull down to the compartment’s 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 them in the 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 the 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:

STAINLESS STEEL MAINTENANCE
Background
Stainless steel does not stain, corrode, or rust as easily as ordinary steel,
but it is not stained 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
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.
The frequency of cleaning will depend upon the installation location,
environment, 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 a mild mixture of ammonia. Rub-bing should, to the extent possible, follow the polish lines of the steel, and always ensure thorough rinsing after cleaning
Although some products are called “stainless steel clean-ers,” some may contain abrasives that could scratch the and some may 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.

CONTROL FUNCTION GUIDE
SHOWROOM MODE
This model is designed to show units in a display environment. When in this
mode the only functions will be the control and cabinet lights. The
compressor, fans, etc. will not operate. To enter/exit this mode holds the
light key and the power key for 5 seconds. The display will f1ash once and
beep and the degree symbol will begin to f1ash. When the degree symbol is
f1ashing the unit will allow the use of the control for demonstrations. The
unit can be left in this mode indefinitely.
SERVICE MODE
This mode has options available for service diagnostics. To enter the mode
hold the hidden key for 10 seconds. The display will show “O.” When in this
mode use the up and down arrows to select the desired option. The LIGHT key is
the ENTER key and will initiate the function. If changing a setting, you must
press the LIGHT key again to retain the changed setting. To exit the service
mode scroll to option “O” and press the LIGHT key. After Ave minutes of not
touching any keys, the mode will also exit automatically.
Thermistors
Thermistors are used for various temperature readings. Thermistors provide
reliable temperature readings using a resistance that varies based on
surrounding temperatures. If a faulty thermistor is suspected it may be tested
using an accurate ohmmeter. Both thermistors in the unit are identical. If a
thermistor is suspected of being defective, the resistance can be verified.
Place the thermistor in an ice water bath, the resistance should read 16.lk
Ohms +/-5% on your meter. Thermistor connections must be kept clean. A
thermistor connection that has become corroded can cause resistance values
from the thermistor to change as they pass through a dirty connection to the
board.
It is for that reason that we apply dielectric grease to all of our thermistor connections. Dielectric grease will help to keep thermistor connections clean and dry. If you change a thermistor in the unit please re-apply dielectric grease to the connection. If you encounter a dirty thermistor connection, you should replace the thermistor and the thermistor harness. Thermistor error information can be found in the Control Operations – Service section. This unit has two thermistors.
Thermistor one (Zone):
Located along the right-hand side wall. It is used to maintain the operating
temperature within that zone.
Thermistor two (Evaporator):
Located on the evaporator. It is used for defrosting.
THERMISTOR FAILURE
Zone Thermistor
If the zone thermistor in the unit fails, the unit will continue to cool in a
backup mode (Self Preservation Mode) to preserve the integrity of the
contents. The unit will otherwise operate normally.
Evaporator Thermistor
If the evaporator thermistor fails, the unit will rely on a preset defrost
timer during defrost cycles. The unit will otherwise operate normally. Refer
to defrost section.
