CARE AND MAINTENANCE 
WARNING:  Failure  to  unplug  the  appliance  during 
service and cleaning could result in electrical shock 
or other personal injury. 
REMOVING SHELVES 
To  remove  any  of  the  shelves  from  the  rail 
compartment,  move the shelf to  the position where 
the  notch  of  wooden  shelf  is  exactly  under  the 
plastic post and then lift it up and out.  
In order to replace the shelf, repeat steps described 
above in  reverse. And make sure to engage  the 
shelves with  the small  pegs of  the extended  rails 
when the model is equipped with roller system. 
HUMIDITY CONTROL 
The  appliance  is  equipped  with  a  system  for 
maintaining  the  correct  level  of  humidity.    Under 
extremely  dry  environmental  conditions,  you  may 
have  to  add  some  water  into  the  humidity  box 
provided with your wine cellar. 
Fill  the  small  plastic  reservoir  (humidity  box)  ¾  full 
with water, and fit onto the runners found on the top 
shelf  of  the  appliance.    Check  the  water  level 
regularly and refill as necessary. 
Please  ensure  the  reservoir  is  positioned  correctly 
on  the  runners  on  the  top  shelf  to  avoid  the 
possibility of water spillage. 
ACTIVE CHARCOAL AIR FILTER 
The active charcoal air filter is located in the back of 
compartment. Replace it with a  new one once  a 
year. It can be purchased from your dealer or from 
the Spare Parts Department. 
  Remove the shelf in front of the filter. 
  Grip  the  filter  and  turn  it  90°clockwise  or  anti-
clockwise to remove. 
  Insert the  new filter in  the vertical  position and 
turn it 90° clockwise or anti-clockwise until it 
clicks into position. 
DOOR LOCK 
If the  unit is  provided  with a  lock  system, the  keys 
are located inside  the plastic  bag  that contains  the 
Owner’s Manual. Insert the key into the lock, push in 
and  turn it  counterclockwise to unlock  the  door.  To 
lock the door do the reverse operation making sure 
metal  pin  is  engaged  completely.  Remove  the  key 
and place it in a secure place for safekeeping. 
CLEANING YOUR APPLIANCE 
Turn  off  the  power,  unplug  the  appliance,  and 
remove all items including shelves and rack. 
Wash  the  inside surfaces with a  warm water  and 
baking soda solution. The solution should be about 2 
tablespoons of baking soda to a pint of water. 
Wash the shelves with a mild detergent solution. 
Wring excess water out of the sponge or cloth when 
cleaning any area of the controls. 
Wash the outside cabinet with warm water and mild 
liquid  detergent.  Rinse  well  and  wipe  dry  with  a 
clean soft cloth. 
Do not clean the stainless steel with steel wool 
pads. Suggest to using an all-in-one stainless steel 
cleaner to clean the stainless steel and always clean 
in the direction of grain. 
POWER FAILURE 
In the event of a  power interruption, all previous 
temperature settings are automatically memorized. If 
power  is  interrupted  (power  surge,  breaker  switch, 
etc.)  and  then  powered  up  again,  the  unit  will 
operate with the last temperature set-point. 
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.
