TIPS FOR ENERGY
SAVING
1. The unit should be located in the coolest
area of the room, away from sunlight,
heat-producing appliances or heat
sources, and should never be exposed to
extreme temperatures.
2. Ensure that door is properly closed when
the unit is turned on.
3. Disconnect the appliance when it is not in
use for an extended period of time.
4. Turn off the interior light when displaying
wine is not necessary.
5. Always keep your wine cellar well
ventilated. Never block the vent,
compressor, or evaporator openings on
inside or exterior of unit.
6. The temperature of the cellar is coolest
on the lowest shelves. If storing a mixture
of wine types, it is recommended that
reds be stored on top shelves, whites in
the middle, and sparkling wines on
bottom shelves.
7. Pre-cooling wine for 2 hours in
refrigerator before storing in cellar is an
energy-saver.
8. Keep the frequency of opening the door
to a minimum, especially if room is hot or
humid.
9. Use the Wine Storage Temperature Chart
on page 8 to select temperature setting.
To keep your wine in perfect condition,
we've recommended the temperature of
different wine types.

of purchase in order to obtain the warranty benefits.

date, the purchase date for purposes of this warranty
will be the date of manufacture.

California law provides that for In-Warranty Service,
California residents take the unit to (A) the store
where it was purchased or (B) to another retail store
which sells Cuisinart products of the same type.
The retail store shall then determine if the product
can be repaired by an authorized repair facility, or
replace the product, or refund the purchase price
less the amount directly attributable to the
consumer’s prior usage of the product.
California residents may also, according to their
preference, return nonconforming products directly
to Cuisinart for repair, or if necessary, replacement,
