Your unit is provided with a lock and key combination.
DOOR LOCK
The keys are located inside the plastic bag that contains the
Instruction Manual
. Insert the key into the
lock and turn it counter-clockwise to unlock the door. To lock the door, do the reverse operation, making
sure the metal pin is engaged completely. Remove the key and put it in a secure place for safekeeping.
To prevent damaging the door gasket, make sure to have the
door all the way open when pulling the shelves out of the rail
compartment.
SHELVES
•
For easy access to the stored contents, you can pull the
shelf approximately halfway out of the rail compartment.
However this unit was designed with a plastic post on each
side of the shelf track to prevent bottles from falling.
•
When removing the shelf from the inner rails, make sure to
remove all contents first. Then move the shelf to the
position where the notches in the wooden shelf are exactly aligned with the plastic posts and lift the
wooden shelf. In order to replace the shelf, repeat this procedure in reverse.
•
The unit defrosts automatically in normal operating conditions.
DEFROSTING
•
The evaporator behind the rear wall of the unit defrosts automatically. The condensate collects in the
drainage channel behind the rear wall of the unit and flows through the drainage hole into the drip tray
by the compressor where it evaporates.
•
However, frost may accumulate on the evaporator if the unit is repeatedly opened in a high heat or high
humidity location. If this frost pattern does not clear within 24 hours, your unit will require manual
defrosting.
USING THE FREEZER FOR MODEL SWFZ3074
•
The freezer is designed for the long-term storage of frozen food. Storage time is up to three months.
•
The storage life of frozen foods varies and the recommended storage time should not be exceeded.
•
Pre-packaged commercially frozen food should be stored in accordance with the food manufacturer’s
instructions for a three star frozen food storage compartment or home freezer.
•
Place frozen food into the freezer as quickly as possible after purchase. If there are instructions on
the packet, carefully follow these instructions regarding storage times.
STORAGE FOR WINE CHILLER
Bottles can differ in size. Accordingly, the actual number of bottles you can store may vary.
The approximate maximum bottle capacity can be achieved when storing traditional 750 ml Bordeaux
bottles in bulk storage.
You may load your wine bottles in single rows or by stacking while taking note of the following: if you do
not have enough bottles to fill your wine cellar, it is better to distribute the load throughout the wine cellar
so as to avoid “all on top” or “all below” type loads.
- Keep small gaps between the walls and the bottles to allow air to circulate. As in an underground
cellar, air circulation is important to prevent mold and for a more homogeneous temperature within
the cellar.
- To facilitate air circulation, do not overload your wine cellar.
- Avoid obstructing the internal fans (located inside on the rear panel of the wine cellar).
- To prevent bottles from falling, do not try to slide the shelves outward beyond the fixed position.
- Do not pull out more than one loaded shelf at a time as this may cause the wine cellar to tilt forward
if not properly installed.
