CARE AND CLEANING
Cleaning the beverage cooler
Before cleaning, turn the temperature control to OFF,
•
unplug the beverage cooler and remove the bottles.
Clean your beverage cooler once every two months.
•
Inside: Wash inside surfaces of the beverage cooler with
a solution of two tablespoons of baking soda in one quart
(1.136 liters) warm water. Rinse and dry. Wring excess
water out of the sponge or cloth when cleaning in the
area of the controls, or any electrical parts.
Wash the removable parts with the baking soda solution
mentioned above, or mild detergent and warm water.
Rinse and dry. Never use metallic scouring pads,
brushes, abrasive cleaners, or alkaline solutions on any
surface. Do not wash removable parts in a dishwasher.
Outside: Wash the cabinet with warm water and mild
liquid detergent. Rinse well and wipe dry with a clean
soft cloth.
Care of plastic parts
Be sure and protect the door gasket. It should be
•
kept clean at all times.
If the plastic parts in the beverage cooler remain
•
contaminated by oil (animal or vegetable) for a long
period of time, they will age and crack easily. Please
clean them on a regular basis.
Vacation and Moving Tips
Vacations:
If the beverage cooler will not be used for several
months:
Remove all wine bottles and unplug the power cord.
•
Clean and dry the interior thoroughly.
•
Leave the wine cooler door open slightly, blocking it
•
open if necessary, to prevent odor and mold growth.
Moving: When moving the beverage cooler, follow these
guidelines to prevent damage:
Disconnect the power cord plug from the wall outlet.
•
Remove wine bottles and clean the beverage cooler.
•
Secure all loose items by taping them securely in
•
place to prevent damage.
In a moving vehicle, secure the beverage cooler in an
•
upright position to prevent movement. Also, protect
the outside of the beverage cooler with a blanket or
similar item.
WARNING
If leaving the beverage cooler door open while on
vacation, make certain that children cannot climb inside
and become entrapped.
