Preparing the Wine Refrigerator for Storage
If the wine refrigerator will not be used for a long time, or is to be
moved to another place, it will be necessary to defrost the unit and
dry the interior.
1. Disconnect the cooler from the power supply by removing the
power plug from the wall socket.
2. Leave the door open to allow for air circulation and to prevent
mold, mildew and unpleasant smells.
CAUTION: Store the unit out of the reach of children. If you have
children, you may want to take additional precautions such as
removing the door to prevent a child from being trapped inside the
cooler!
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Periodic cleaning and proper maintenance will ensure efficiency, top
performance, and long life.
Exterior Cleaning
The door and cabinet may be cleaned with a mild detergent and
lukewarm water solution such as 2 tablespoons of baking soda to 1 quart
of water.
Do not use solvent based or abrasive cleaners. Use a soft sponge and
rinse with clean water. Wipe with a soft clean towel to prevent water
spotting. If the door panel is stainless steel, it can discolor when exposed
to chlorine gas and moisture. Clean stainless steel with a cloth dampened
with a mild detergent and warm water solution. Never use an abrasive or
caustic cleaning agent.
Interior Cleaning
The
wine refrigerator’s interior should be cleaned occasionally.
1. Disconnect power to the unit.
2. Open the door and remove the contents and shelves.
3. Wait until the unit defrosts.
4. With a clean cloth, wipe down the interior of the unit.
5. Reinsert the shelves and beverages.
6. Reconnect power to the unit.
IMPORTANT:
• Do not touch the power plug when
your hands are wet.
• Never unplug the unit by pulling
on the plug.
