LIQUID MEASURING THERMOMETER By measuring the temperature of the liquid, the temperature reading will be consistent and the unit will only run when it needs to. To Install the Thermostat: 1. Fill an empty wine bottle to its neck with room temperature water. 2. Press bottle probe securely into bottle. 3. Place the bottle with probe into a level rack space. Avoid pulling too much on the probe cord as it may become disconnected, which would lead to inaccurate temperature readings.

SYSTEM OPERATION (WHISPERKOOL 2500) Initial Start-Up When the unit is first turned on, the control will briefly display all symbols and the green snowflake symbol will appear if the unit is calling for cooling. There may be a brief delay prior to the evaporator fan turning on, as it will not start until the probe temperature drops to below 70°F. When the fan is activated, the fan symbol will be displayed.
WK 2500 CABINET SYSTEM SYSTEM OPERATION (WHISPERKOOL 2500) CONT. Ambient Temperature The cooling system in the cabinet has the ability to cool a maximum of 20°F below the ambient temperature in the room. The optimal temperature for wine storage is 55°F, make sure that the temperature of the room in which the cabinet will be placed does not exceed 75°F. To ensure a consistent temperature, make sure the room temperature does not dip below 55°F.

In the event that there is a Probe 1 failure alarm, the compressor/refrigeration system automatically starts a predetermined ON/OFF cycle, which is controlled by the CON and the COF parameters.
WK 2500 CABINET SYSTEM TESTING THE REFRIGERATION UNIT Remember, do not start or plug in your unit for 24 hours after delivery. Many units are placed on their sides during shipping, which may allow compressor oil to escape their reservoirs. Premature starting before the oil has had a chance to resettle can cause damage to the compressor and result in a lack of cooling. Before you fill the cabinet with wine, you’ll want to check the operation of the unit.
NORMAL OPERATION MAINTENANCE The cooling unit will cycle on and off as needed once the temperature has stabilized and the initial “cool-down” has been completed. — Thermostat: Should be 55°F or desired wine temperature. Maintenance WhisperKOOL recommends cleaning the condenser filter every three months.WhisperKOOL recommends vacuuming of the condenser fins located in the rear of the cabinet every three months. A partially obstructed condenser dramatically reduces the efficiency of the cooling unit.
