Installation Installing the Wine Keeper Your Electrolux Wine Keeper has been designed for either free-standing or built-in installation. When built-in, your wine keeper does not require additional air space for top, sides or rear. In either case, the front grille must NOT be obstructed. NOTE NOTE To ease unit installation and removal, it is recommended that the cabinet rough opening dimensions be increased by at least ¼ inch over the dimensions given for your unit.
Installation Site Preparation 1 Position the unit on a flat, level surface capable of supporting the entire weight of the unit. Remember the unit will be significantly heavier once it is fully loaded. 2 This unit requires a grounded and polarized 115 VAC, 60Hz, 15A circuit (normal household current). 3 Avoid connecting the unit to a Ground Fault Interruptor (GFI). GFIs are prone to nuisance tripping which will cause the unit to shut down.
Installation All of these conditions can be met by raising or lowering the adjustable leveling legs. To level the cabinet using the leveling legs: 1 Open the door and remove the toe grille by gently pressing down on top edge to release snaps and pull forward. 2 Close the door and use a flat-blade screwdriver or ³⁄₈ inch socket wrench to raise or lower the front rollers enough so you can use them to help guide the wine keeper in position.
Installation Door Handle Mounting Instructions B 1 Remove handle from carton and any other protective packaging. 2 Position handle end caps over upper and lower pre-installed shoulder bolts (A) that are fastened into door, ensuring the holes for the set screws are facing towards the outside edge of the door. 3 While holding handle firmly against door, fasten upper and lower Allen set screws (B) with supplied Allen wrench.

Place the bottle in the desired area for 24 hours. Refrain from opening the unit during the testing period.

Storage / Maintenance Proper Storage The wine keeper can accommodate more than 160 bottles (typical 750 ml size).
