ASSEMBLY & INSTALLATION

HANDLE ASSEMBLY

Tools Required for Assembly:

Phillips screwdriver (not included)

Estimated Assembly Time:

5 minutes

Before installation, attach the handle to the front of the unit with the included screws. It may be necessary to push aside the rubber seal on the inside of the door to reveal the screw holes.

Caution:

Avoid over-tightening the screws, or you may cause damage to the unit.

INSTALLATION

Before connecting the appliance to a power source, let it stand upright for approximately 2 hours.

This will reduce the possibility of a malfunction in the cooling system from handling during transportation.

This appliance can either stand alone or be built in. Front grille must be unobstructed.

Before operating your wine cooler for the first time, follow these steps:



Clean the interior surface of the unit with lukewarm water and a soft cloth.



Place the refrigerator on a level surface that will be strong enough to support the unit when it is fully loaded. To level your appliance, adjust the front feet located at the bottom of the unit.



Install the appliance away from direct sunlight and heat sources such as stoves, heaters, or radiators. Direct sunlight may affect the unit’s acrylic coating, and nearby heat sources can increase electrical consumption.

Extreme cold or hot ambient temperatures may also prevent proper performance. http://www.NewAir.com

REVERSING THE DOOR SWING

7

As you received your wine cooler, the door swings open the left. If you wish to reverse the swing so that the door opens from the right, it is important to have at least one other person to help. It is very dangerous to try to reverse the door swing by yourself.

1.

Unscrew the upper door hinge while the second person supports the door.

2.

Remove the upper hinge and carefully lift the door off the bottom hinge.

3.

Unscrew the bottom hinge and install it on the left side of the unit.

4.

Flip the door around so that the handle is on the right side and slip the door over the bottom hinge.

5.

Reattach the door by screwing the top hinge into the holes provided on the upper left surface of the unit. Make adjustments as necessary to be sure the door is aligned properly.

CLEANING & MAINTENANCE

CLEANING YOUR COOLER

To clean your cooler:



Unplug the cooler and remove anything inside.

Wash the inside of the unit with a solution made of warm water and baking soda solution (2 tablespoons of baking soda to one quart of water).



MOVING YOUR COOLER

To move your cooler:



Remove anything stored inside.



Securely tape down all loose parts located inside the unit.



Turn the leveling feet up to the base in order to avoid damage.



Tape the door shut.



Be sure the cooler stays in an upright position during transportation.

WINE STORAGE GUIDE



The ideal temperature for storing red or white wines is 55°F, with humidity between 60% and 75% RH.



Store corked bottles on their sides, to keep the cork from drying out and allowing air into the bottle.



UV rays make wine age faster, so keep bottles out of direct sunlight.



Avoid heavy vibrations from motors, etc.



Store wine separately from strong odors that might contaminate the flavor of the wine.

How Long Should I Store My Wine?

While most wines today are meant to be drunk “young” (within a few years of production) some fine wines are best served by proper aging. But aging too long can decrease the flavor of the wine. Generally speaking, red wines can age longer than white wines, but here is a storage guide for some popular vintages.
