2115WC/2115WCOL2 Wine Captain

®

Product Dimensions

Please note that the unit has adjustable feet that can add 
one additional inch to height during leveling or to match 
adjacent cabinets (see 

Figure 26

 on 

Page 13

).

Door Swing/Clearances Information

Black and Wood Overlay units have a zero clearance for 
the door to open 90° (see 

Figure 3

). Stainless Steel 

models require a minimum of 2-1/8" door clearance to 
accommodate the handle if the unit is installed next to a 
wall or similar type of structure.

Other Site Requirements

Power Supply

The unit requires a grounded and polarized 115 VAC, 
60 Hz, 15A circuit (normal household current). See 

Electrical Specifications

 on 

Page 13

.

Environmental Requirements

Many U-Line models are designed to operate in harsh 
outdoor/marine environments. Special considerations 
include the following:

• The units are designed to operate between 50°F (10°C) 

and 110°F (40°C). High ambient temperatures (110°F 
[40°C] or higher) may reduce the unit’s ability to reach 
low temperatures.

• For best performance, keep the unit out of direct 

sunlight and away from heat generating equipment.

• In climates where high humidity and dew points are 

present, condensation may appear on outside surfaces. 
This is considered normal. The condensation will 
disappear when the humidity drops.

• U-Line does not recommend installation of glass front 

models (Wine Captain

®

 wine storage models and 

Beverage Centers) as well as the Combo Drawer model 
(Refrigerator/Freezer/Ice Maker) outdoors, or in tropical 
climates where high humidity and dew point are present 
on a regular basis, unless air-conditioning (typical 72°F, 
75%RH) will be used.
