Care and Maintenance
Cleaning your wine cellar:
1. Unplug the wine cellar and remove all items, including shelves and racks.
2. Wash the inside surfaces with a solution of warm water and baking soda. The
solution should contain about 2 tablespoons of baking soda to a quart of
water.
3. Wash the shelves and racks with a mild detergent solution.
4. Wash the outside cabinet with warm water and mild liquid detergent.
5. Rinse well and wipe dry with a clean soft cloth.
6. Wring excess water out of the sponge or cloth before cleaning the area of the
controls, or any electrical parts.
CAUTION: Failure to unplug the unit could result in electrical shock or personal
injury.
Power Failure:
Most power failures are corrected within a few hours and should not affect the
temperature of your unit 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 of your wine cellar.
Vacation Time:
Short vacations: Leave the unit operating during vacations of less than three
weeks.
Long vacations: If the appliance will not be used for several months, remove all
items and unplug the power cord. Clean and dry the interior thoroughly. To
prevent odor and mold growth, leave the door open slightly, blocking it open if
necessary.
Moving Your Unit:
1. Remove the contents of the wine cellar.
2. Securely tape down all loose items (shelves and racks) inside your unit.
3. Turn the leveling leg up to the base to avoid damage.
4. Tape the door shut.
5. Be sure the unit stays secure in the upright position during transportation.
Also, protect the outside of the unit with a blanket or similar covering.
Energy-Saving Tips:
The unit should be located in the coolest area of the room, away from heat-
producing appliances and out of direct sunlight.
