Operating Your Wine Cooler
It is recommended you install the wine cooler in a place where the ambient
temperature is between 72-78 degrees Fahrenheit. If the ambient temperature is
above or below recommended temperatures, the performance of the unit may be
affected. For example, placing your unit in extreme cold or hot conditions may
cause interior temperatures to fluctuate.
Recommended Temperatures for Chilling Wine
Red Wines:
60-65°F
Dry/White Wines:
50-57°F
Sparkling Wines:
45-50°F
Rose Wines:
49-51°F
There is also an 8-10°F variance between the top and bottom shelves of the wine
cellar. So if you would like to place a mix of white and red wines, you may want
to place the white wines on the bottom shelves and the red wines on the top
shelves.
Care and Maintenance
Cleaning Your Wine Cooler
•
Turn the temperature control to off, unplug the appliance and remove the
contents.
•
Unplug the wine cooler and remove the bottles and shelves.
•
Wash the inside with warm water and baking soda solution. The solution
should be about 2 tablespoons of baking soda to a quart of water.
•
The outside of the wine cooler should be cleaned with a mild detergent
and warm water.
•
It may also be necessary to periodically wipe the bottom part of the
storage area, as the wine cooler is designed to retain humidity
(condensation may collect there).
Maintenance of Your Wine Cooler
Most power failures are corrected within a few hours and should not affect
temperature of your wine cooler 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.
Moving your Wine cooler
•
Remove all the bottles.
•
Securely tape down all loose items inside your wine cooler.
•
Turn the leveling screws up to the base to avoid damage.
•
Tape the doors shut
•
Be sure the wine cooler stays in the upright position during transportation.
