STORAGE OF WINE
The water reservoir should be positioned in the centre of the top rack in each compartment if
used. To achieve maximum storage capacity, position the bottles alternately on the racks. (See
below diagram)
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Cleaning
•
Upon receiving your wine cabinet, leave the door open for 24 hours.
•
To clean, turn off the power, unplug the appliance, and remove all items including shelves
and rack. Wash the inside surfaces with a warm water and baking soda solution. The
solution should be about two tablespoons of baking soda to one litre of water. Wash the
shelves with a mild detergent solution. Wring excess water out of the sponge or cloth when
cleaning the control panel, or any electrical parts.
•
Wash the outside cabinet with warm water and mild liquid detergent. Rinse well and wipe dry
with a clean soft cloth.
Power Failure
•
Most power failures are corrected within a few hours and should not affect the temperature
of your appliance if you minimise 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 action to protect the contents.
Vacation Time
•
Short vacations:
Leave the wine Cabinet operating during vacations of less than three
weeks.
•
Long vacations:
If the wine Cabinet will not be used for several months, remove all items
and disconnect. Clean and dry the interior thoroughly. To prevent odour and mould
growth, leave the door open slightly (blocking it open if necessary).
Moving Your Wine Cabinet
•
Remove all bottles.
•
Securely tape down all shelves inside the cabinet.
•
Turn the adjustable legs up to the base to avoid damage.
•
Tape the door shut.
•
Be sure the appliance stays secure and upright during transportation. Also protect the
outside of the wine Cabinet. (e.g. with a blanket).
Energy Saving Tips
•
The wine Cabinet should be located in the coolest area of a room, away from heat
producing appliances, and out of the direct sunlight.
