TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
CLEANING YOUR BEVERAGE CENTRE
• Turn off the power, unplug the appliance, and remove all items including shelves and rack.
• Wash the inside surfaces with warm water and baking soda solution. The solution should be about
30 ml (2 tbsp) baking soda to 1L (1 quart) of water.
• Wash the shelves with a mild detergent solution.
• Wring excess water out of the sponge or cloth when cleaning area of the controls, or any
electrical parts.
• Wash the outside cabinet with warm water and mild liquid detergent.
• Rinse well and wipe dry with a clean soft cloth.
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.
VACATION TIME
• Short vacations: Leave the Beverage Centre operating during vacations of less than three weeks.
• Long vacations: If the appliance will not be used for several months, remove all items and turn off
the appliance. Clean and dry the interior thoroughly. To prevent door and mold growth, leave the door
open slightly, blocking it open if necessary.
MOVING YOUR BEVERAGE CENTRE
• Remove all items.
• Securely tape down all loose items (shelves) inside your appliance.
• Turn the adjustable leg up to the base to avoid damage.
• Tape the door shut.
• Be sure the appliance stays secure in the upright position during transportation. Also
protect the outside of the appliance with a blanket, or similar item.
ENERGY SAVING TIPS
The Beverage Centre should be located in the coolest area of the room, away from heat
producing appliances, and out of the direct sunlight.
