NOTE:
Wait 3 to 5 minutes before restarting if operation has
been interrupted.
Interior Light
The operation of the interior light is "manually"
controlled and does not operate with the opening or closing of
the door. To operate the light; manually press the light/toggle
switch located on the left side of the light bulb housing located
on the ceiling of inner cabinet.
Defrosting
Your wine cooler is designed with an “Auto-Cycle”
defrost system.
What is Auto Cycle defrost?
The refrigerated surfaces of the fresh food compartment defrost
automatically, during the “off” cycle of the cold control.
(thermostat) Defrost water from the fresh food compartment is
disposed of automatically, by means of being channeled onto a
drip tray located on the compressor. Heat transfer from the
compressor causes the defrost water to evaporate.
Cleaning
To clean the inside, use a soft cloth and a solution of
a tablespoon of baking soda to one quart of water, or a mild
soap suds solution, or some mild detergent. Wash glide out
shelves in a mild detergent solution, then dry and wipe with a
soft cloth. Clean the outside with a soft damp cloth and some
mild detergent or appliance cleaner.
Vacation Time
For short vacation periods, leave the control knobs at their usual
settings. During longer absences,
(a) remove bottles,
(b) disconnect from electrical outlet,
(c) clean the wine cooler thoroughly,
(d) leave door open to avoid possible formations of condensate,
mold or odors.
Power Failure
Most power failures are corrected within an
hour or two and will not affect your wine cooler temperatures.
However, you should minimize the number of door openings
while the power is off. During power failures of longer duration,
take steps to protect your wine.
If You Move
Remove or securely fasten down all loose items
inside the wine cooler. To avoid damaging the leveling screws,
turn them all the way into the base.
Light Bulb Replacement
To replace the interior light bulb;
Remove the screw holding the light bulb cover, remove cover.
Unscrew light bulb. Replace light bulb.
NOTE: Light bulb should not exceed 25 watts.
Replace light bulb cover. Re-install screw to secure cover.
