CARE AND CLEANING OF YOUR WINE STORAGE UNIT

Condenser

The condenser tubing inside the cabinet does not require 
frequent cleaning; however, satisfactory cooling depends 
on adequate ventilation over the coils.  Be sure that noth-
ing obstructs the required air flow openings in front of the 
cabinet.  At least once or twice a year, brush or vacuum lint 
and dirt from the condenser for efficient performance by 
unscrewing the grille on the bottom front of the cabinet.

Cabinet

The painted cabinet can be washed with a mild soap and 
water and thoroughly rinsed with clear water.  NEVER use 
abrasive scouring cleaners.

Interior

Wash interior compartment with mild soap and water.  Do 
NOT use an abrasive cleaner, solvent, polish cleaner or 
undiluted detergent.

Roll-out Racks

Tha racks may be cleaned with mild soap and water and a 
soft cloth.  Do NOT use any abrasive cleaners.

Door Gasket

The vinyl gasket may be cleaned with mild soap and water, 
a baking soda solution or a mild scouring powder.

Light Bulb Replacement

WARNING!  DISCONNECT THE POWER CORD BEFORE 
ATTEMPTING LIGHT BULB REPLACEMENT.  Failure to do so 
may result in an electrical shock that could severely injure 
you.

The FWS38DX uses one, 6 watt light tube and the    
FWS60DX uses two, 6 watt light tubes to illuminate the 
interior of the wine storage unit.  The light tube is a very 
reliable electrical component, but should it not function 
properly, please call the dealer you purchased your wine 
storage unit from for a replacement light tube.  Use only an 
original equipment light tube from your dealer or Falcon.

Do NOT under any circumstance use a light tube that 
exceeds 10 watts!

To replace a light tube, use a hex-head driver, remove the 
two hex-head screws that hold a cover plate over the back 
section of the light tube.  Set the screws and cover plate 
aside for reassembly later.

Using a small flat-blade screwdriver, gently lever the front 
section of the light tube down to allow it to be pulled clear 
of the light housing.

Disconnect the two insulated electrical connectors from the 
cabinet’s electrical cable and discard the old light tube.  
Reconnect the electrical connector of the new light tube to 
the cabinet’s electrical cable connectors.  Make sure it is 
secure and fully installed.

Carefully realign the light tube’s electrical terminal back 
into the rear of the light enclosure channel making sure not 
to crimp them.  Gently insert the light tube along the length 
of the light enclosure channel.  Press the light tube gen-
tly into the light enclosure channel.  Only a small part of 
the light tube should project below the ceiling of the wine 
storage unit.  DO NOT USE A HAMMER TO FIT THE LIGHT 
TUBE.

Place the light tube terminal cover plate back in the original 
position on the light enclosure’s flange.  Reuse the original 
two screws to secure it in place.  Plug the wine storage unit 
into the electrical socket.  Check to see if the light tube op-
erates properly.  Your light tube’s replacement is complete.

The light tubes are not covered by your warranty.  Replace-
ment tubes can be obtained from your dealer or from 
Falcon.

In the Event of a Power Failure

If a power failure occurs, try to correct it as soon as pos-
sible.  Minimize the number of door openings while the 
power is off so as not to adversely affect the unit’s tem-
perature.

Disposal

When you dispose of this product, do so in a way sympa-
thetic to the environment.  For further information, contact 
your local authority.
