INSTALLING YOUR WINE STORAGE UNIT
Select Location
The proper location will ensure peak performance of your ap
-
pliance. We recommend a location where the unit will be out
of direct sunlight and away from heat sources. To assure your
product performs to specifications the recommended installation
location temperature range is from 18 to 27°C for indoor built in
units,18 to 32°C for indoor freestanding units.
Cabinet Clearance
Ventilation is required from the bottom front section of the unit.
Keep this area open and clear of any obstructions. Adjacent
cabinets and counter top can be installed around the unit as long
as the grille and door access remain unobstructed.
Leveling Legs
Front Grille, keep
this
area open.
Figure 2
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 us
-
age and loss of cooling capacity. For this reason it is important
this area to not be obstructed and be kept clean. AGA does not
recommend the use of custom made grilles as air flow may be
restricted because of inadequate openings. (See Figure 2).

Leveling Legs
Adjustable legs at the front and rear corners of the unit 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 refriger
-
ator may be adjusted from 85.7cm with the leveling legs turned
in, and up to 88.3cm with the leveling legs extended.
To adjust the leveling legs, place the refrigerator on a solid
surface and protect the floor beneath the legs to avoid scratch
-
ing the floor. With the assistance of another person, lean the
refrigerator 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 refrigerator forward using
caution to prevent the door from opening. On a level surface
check the refrigerator for levelness and adjust accordingly.
The front grille (toe kick) screws may be loosened and adjusted
to the desired height. When adjustment is complete tighten the
two toe kick screws. (See Figure 4).
