Operation and Controls
OPERATING THE WINE REFRIGERATOR
Recommend Temperature Settings
It is recommended that you install the wine refrigerator in a place where the ambient temperature is between
(68°F - 78°F). If the ambient temperature is above or below recommended temperatures, the performance
of the unit may be affected. For example, placing in extreme cold or hot conditions may cause interior tem-
perature to fluctuate thus the set temperature may not be achievable.
CONTROL PANEL
SETTING THE TEMPERATURE
The temperature range can be set between 39ºF - 65ºF (4ºC - 18ºC). To set the desired temperature, press
the button to lower the temperature or button to raise the temperature on the control panel. The
temperature display will flash for 5 seconds indicating that the desired temperature is set and will revert
back to its actual internal temperature.
NOTE:
The temperature inside the wine refrigerator is dependent on the ambient temperature (room tempera-
ture).
The
cooling icon is illuminated when the cooling cycle unit is in operation. Once the unit reaches
the set temperature, the cooling icon will shut off.
INTERIOR LIGHT / ºC and ºF SELECTOR
You can turn on and off the interior light by pressing the Light button on the control panel. To change
temperature conversions, press the
button to switch between temperature conversions.
LEVELING THE APPLIANCE
It is important for your appliance to be leveled in order to work properly. It can be raised or lowered by rotat-
ing each of the feet on the bottom of the machine. If you find that the surface is not level, rotate the feet until
the appliance becomes level .You may need to make several adjustments to level it. We recommend using a
carpenter’s level to check the machine.
NOTE: The Whynter FWC-341TS has 1 large leveling leg and 1 small leveling leg under the door hinge.
1. Place a carpenter’s level on top of the product to see if
the appliance is level from front to back and side to
side.
2. Adjust the height of the feet as follows: Turn the level-
ing feet to the right to lower that side of the refrigera-
tor. Turn the leveling feet to the left to raise that side of
the refrigerator.
