10 Care and Cleaning
•
Turn off and unplug the unit prior to cleaning.
CAUTION
:
Failure to unplug the Wine Cooler could result in electrical shock or personal injury.
•
Wipe the inside surfaces with a warm water and baking soda solution. The solution should be
about 2 tablespoons of baking soda to 1 litre of water.
•
Wipe the shelves with a mild detergent solution.
•
Wring excess water out of the sponge or cloth when cleaning area of the controls, or around
any electrical parts.
Warning
: Never get electrical components wet.
•
Wipe the outside cabinet with warm water and mild liquid detergent. Rinse well and wipe dry
with a clean soft cloth.
•
Never spray with liquids or submerge the unit in water or any other liquid.
•
Do not use flammable liquids, chemicals, abrasive creams, steel wool or scouring pads for
cleaning.
11 Power Failure
Most power failures are corrected within a few hours and should not affect the temperature of
your appliance 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 your contents.
12 Moving Your Wine Cooler
•
Remove all bottles.
•
Securely tape down all loose items (shelves) inside your appliance.
•
Tape the door shut.
•
Protect outside of appliance with a blanket, or similar item.
13 Energy Saving Tips
The Wine Cooler should be located in the coolest area of the room, away from heat producing
appliances, and out of the direct sunlight.
One characteristic of superconductor units is the length of time it requires to recover from having
the door opened and shut frequently. It may be necessary to wait longer for the temperature to
return to its former level once the door has been opened for too long. This is normal for this type
of unit.
14 Disposal
•
When disposing of your appliance, use an authorised disposal site. Contact your local council
for further advice.
•
Remove the plug and ensure that any locks or catches are removed, to prevent young
children being trapped inside.
