First Time Operating Instructions Before use, make sure all packaging labels and materials are removed from the unit. Be sure to keep track of all included parts and pieces before discarding the packaging materials. It is advised that you keep the original box and packaging materials in case you ever need to move or ship the appliance in the future. Let the unit stand for at least 24 hours before you use it; this allows the cooling components time to settle from transit.
Parts Identification Note: The Carbon filter should be replaced every 3 - 6 months depending on the unit’s exposure level to odor. If the unit is placed in the kitchen, regular replacement every 3 months is ideal.
Installing the Wine Refrigerator The wine refrigerator should be installed in accordance with local electrical code requirements. The wine refrigerator should also be placed in a location that is strong enough to support its total weight, keeping in mind that it will weigh substantially more when fully loaded than when empty. Before you plug the wine refrigerator into a power supply, be sure to let it stand upright for at least 24 hours to allow the compressor’s oils to settle.
Installation Clearance Requirements Important Notes: Choose a location that has ambient temperatures above 50° F and below 95° F. Operation outside these temperatures may result in lowered efficiency or cause other adverse effects. This unit MUST be installed in an area protected from the elements, e.g. wind, rain, water spray or drips. The wine refrigerator should not be located next to ovens, grills, or other high heat sources.
Electrical Requirements ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD! Plug into a grounded 3-prong outlet. Never remove the grounding prong from the plug. Never use an adapter to bypass the grounding prong. DO NOT use an extension cord. Failure to follow these instructions can result in fire, electrical shock, or death.
Installing the Door Handle To install the door handle: 1. Open the door and carefully pull the door gasket around the area where the handle is to be installed. 2. Insert each Phillips head screw through the gasket side of the door until the screw passes through the door. 3. Align the handle with the screws and tighten the screws with a Phillips head screwdriver until the handle is flush against the door frame.
To Remove the Shelves 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Open the door completely. Make sure the shelf is pushed back completely (towards the rear wall). If necessary, make sure you remove all the contents sitting on the shelf. Identify the protective stoppers located on the right and left sides of the back of each wood wine shelf. Lift either the left or right side of the shelf creating a 45° angle from its original position.
