Care and maintenance
Cleaning
•
Turn off the power; unplug the wine cabinet, and remove the bottles.
•
Wash the inside with a warm water and baking soda solution. (The solution should be about 1
tablespoon of baking soda to a litre of water.).
•
Wash the shelves and trays with a mild detergent solution.
•
The outside of the Wine Cabinet should be cleaned with mild detergent and warm water.
•
It may also be necessary to periodically wipe the bottom part of the storage area as the Wine
Cabinet is designed to retain humidity, and condensation may collect there.
Power Failure
Most power failures are corrected within a few hours and should not affect the temperature of your
wine cabinet if you minimize the number of times the door is opened. If the power is going to be off for a
longer period of time you need to take the proper steps to protect the contents.
Holidays
•
Short holidays: Leave the wine cabinet operating during holidays of less than three weeks.
•
Long holidays: If the wine cabinet will not be used for several months, remove all the bottles and
disconnect. Clean and dry the interior thoroughly. To prevent odour and mould growth, leave the
door open slightly (blocking it open if necessary).
Moving your wine cabinet
•
Remove all the bottles.
•
Securely tape down all loose items inside your Wine Cabinet.
•
Turn the leveling screws up to the base to avoid damage.
•
Tape the doors shut.
•
Be sure the Wine Cabinet stays secure and upright during transportation.Also be sure to protect the
outer casing of the cabinet whilst in transit (e.g. with a blanket)
Energy saving tips
The wine cabinet should be located in the coolest area of a room, away from heat producing appliances
and out of direct sunlight.
