WINE SHELVES
The CWC
-
351DD wine cooler is equipped with 7 premium stainless steel trimmed scalloped shelves. If you
are having trouble fitting the stated listed number of bottles of wine in the wine cooler, try flipping the wine
racks over. To prevent damage to the door gasket, make sure the door is all the way opened when pulling
the shelves out.
For easy access of the wine bottles, you must pull the shelves approximately ⅓ out of the railing.
When removing the shelves out of the railing, make sure to remove all items first.
To remove the shelves, pull the shelf forward through the rail carefully.
TRANSPORT OF THE APPLIANCE
The ideal packaging for the wine cooler is its original packaging. Please keep the original packaging handy
and repack the wine cooler if you need to transport the unit.
OPERATING THE APPLIANCE
It is recommended you install the appliance in a place where the ambient temperature is between 68º
-
78ºF.
If the ambient temperature is above or below recommended temperatures, the performance may be affect-
ed. For example, placing your Wine Cooler in extreme cold or hot conditions may cause interior tempera-
tures to fluctuate.
RECOMMENDED TEMPERATURE SETTINGS
DEFROSTING
Under most ambient conditions, the wine cooler does not need to be defrosted. In cold ambient tempera-
tures and/or high humidity, some frost may build up. To defrost, remove all items, unplug the wine cooler
and leave the door open. Never use a knife or other metal instrument to scrape ice/frost. After defrosting,
plug in the wine cooler and set the desired temperature.
