Replacing the filters
Air quality is an important part of preserving and maturing
good wine. To maintain good air quality, your Dacor wine
cooler is equipped with an activated charcoal filter inside each
compartment. They are located on the rear wall.
Dacor recommends that you replace both filters at least once a
year. Filters (Dacor PN 101844) can be obtained from your Dacor
dealer, parts distributor or at www.everythingdacor.com.
To remove the old filters:
Disconnect the power cord from the electrical outlet or turn off
1.
power at the circuit breaker or fuse box.
Hold the top filter by the handle in the center.
2.
Turn it 90° to the left or right. Pull it out.
3.
Remove the bottom filter the same way.
4.
To install the new filters:
Insert the top filter with the handle in the vertical position.
1.
Turn it 90° to the left or right until it clicks into place.
2.
Replace the bottom filter the same way.
3.
Reconnect the power.

power cord or turn off power at the circuit breaker or fuse
box before cleaning the appliance.
Clean only the parts of the wine cooler listed in this manual.
•
Clean them only in the manner specified.
Do not use a steam cleaner to clean the wine cooler. Steam
•
could penetrate the electrical components and cause a short
circuit.
Do not allow water or cleaning fluids to penetrate into the
•
electrical components or ventilation grill.

Defrosting
Both compartments of your wine cooler defrost automatically.
Water may form on the rear wall as part of the defrost process. It
drains into a reservoir at the back of the appliance and is heated

Cleaning the Surfaces
Stainless Steel Surfaces
CAUTION
Always wipe stainless steel (silver colored) surfaces with the
