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.

REVERSING THE DOOR SWING
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.

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.
