INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Before Using Your Wine Cooler
•
Remove all packaging and labels from your wine cooler. Be sure that all the parts
have been included before discarding any packaging materials. You may want to
keep the box and packing materials for use at a later date.
•
Before connecting the wine cooler to the power source, let it stand upright for
approximately 2 hours. This will reduce the possibility of a malfunction in the
cooling system from handling during transportation.
•
Clean the interior surface with lukewarm water using a soft cloth.
•
Install the handle on the left side of the door.
Installation Instructions
•
This appliance is designed for free standing or built-in (full recessed) installation.
•
Place your wine cooler on a floor that is strong enough to support it when it is fully
loaded. To level your wine cooler, adjust the front leveling legs at the bottom of the
wine cooler.
•
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. Extreme cold ambient temperatures
may also cause the unit not to perform properly.
•
Avoid locating the unit in moist areas.
•
Plug the wine cooler into an exclusive, 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 or an authorized products service center.
