IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Before using the appliance, please properly position and install it as described in this manual. To avoid the risk of fire, electrical shock or injury when using the appliance, please follow these basic precautions:
• The appliance is intended to be used exclusively for the storage of wine.
• Make sure the voltage/current marked on the rating label corresponds with your supply voltage. Plug into a standard 10amp 3-pin outlet.
• It is recommended that a separate circuit, serving only your appliance be provided.
• Never clean the appliance parts with flammable fluids which may create a fire hazard or explosion. And do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapours and liquids in the vicinity of the appliance.
• Do not connect or disconnect the electric plug when your hands are wet.
• Unplug the appliance or disconnect power before cleaning, maintenance or servicing. Failure to do so can result in electrical shock or death.
• Do not attempt to repair or replace any part of the appliance unless it is specifically recommended in this material. All other servicing should be referred to a qualified service technician.
• To ensure proper ventilation for the appliance, the front of the unit must be completely unobstructed. Locate the unit away from direct sunlight and sources of heat (stove, heater, radiator, etc.).
• The fuse (or circuit breaker) size should be 10 amp or higher.
• It is important for the appliance to be levelled in order to work properly. You may adjust the appliance’s feet to level it.
• This appliance is intended for use by persons with sufficient experience and knowledge of electrical appliances. Any other persons (including children) should be supervised or given instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.

ACCESSORY INSTALLATION BEFORE OPERATING
UNPACKING AND CLEANING THE WINE COOLER
• Remove the exterior and interior packing materials.
• Let the appliance stand upright for approximately 24 hours before connecting it to the power source,
which helps to reduce the possibility of a cooling-system malfunction from handling during
transportation.
• Use a soft cloth to clean the interior surface with lukewarm water.
• Install the door handle provided with the appliance by following these steps:
-Remove the gasket on the internal door to expose the two screw holes.
-Install the handle with the
Screws and washers provided.
Restore the gasket.
OPERATING THE WINE COOLER
WORKING CLIMATE
• The appliance is designed for operating from SN to N climate (see below climate class chart). It is recommended to maintain the ambient around 22-25°C which helps the appliance working with low power consumption.
Climate Class Ambient Temperature
SN 10 - 32 °C (50ºF-90ºF)
N
ST
16 - 32 °C (61ºF-90ºF)
18-38 °C (64ºF-100ºF)
T 18-43 °C (64ºF-109ºF)
• If the ambient temperature is above or below the designed climate range, the performance of the unit may be affected. For example, the appliance operating in extreme cold or hot conditions may cause interior temperatures to fluctuate, and the temperature set 5-22°C may not be reached sometimes.
WINE STORAGE
• The standard shelves are designed perfectly for Bordeaux style bottle storage. The maximum bottle loading may vary subject to the different size or dimension of wine bottles you store.
• The shelves can be pulled out by approximately 1/3 for easy access to the wine storage.
• The shelves are fitted with a plastic Stopper on each side of the shelf track to prevent the shelf from sliding out completely.
4
• To prevent damaging the door gasket, make sure to have the door opened fully all the way before pulling the shelves out.
• Please store wine in sealed bottles.
• Do not cover the shelves with aluminium foil or any other shelf material which may prevent air circulation.
• Should the wine cooler be left empty for long periods it is suggested that the appliance is unplugged, and after careful cleaning, leave the door ajar to allow air to circulate inside the cabinet in order to avoid possible condensation, mould or odours forming.
Recommended temperatures for chilling/storing your wines.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE
CLEANING THE WINE COOLER
• Turn off the power, unplug the appliance, and remove all items including shelves.
• Wipe the inside surfaces with a sponge and baking soda solution. The solution should be about 2 tablespoons of baking soda to 1 litre of warm water.
• Wash the shelves with a mild detergent solution. Allow the wooden shelves to dry before placing them back into the wine cooler.
• Remove excess water from the sponge or cloth when cleaning the controls, or any other electrical display areas.
• Wipe the outside cabinet with warm water and a mild liquid detergent. Wipe dry with a clean soft cloth.
• Do not use steel wool or steel brush on the stainless steel. These will contaminate the stainless steel with steel particles and rusting may occur.
POWER FAILURE
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.
MOVING THE WINE COOLER
• Remove all items.
• Securely tape down all loose items (shelves) inside your appliance.
• Turn the adjustable legs up to the base to avoid damage.
• Tape the door shut.
• Ensure the appliance stays secure in the upright position during transportation. Also protect the outside of appliance with a blanket, or similar item.
ENERGY SAVING TIPS
• The appliance should be located away from heat producing appliances, and away from direct sunlight.
• Ensure that the unit is adequately ventilated. Never cover the air vents.
• Only open the door when necessary. Avoid leaving the door open for long periods or opening/closing the door frequently.
