Remove the exterior and interior packaging. Use a soft dry cloth to wipe down the
outside of the wine cellar thoroughly. Use a clean cloth dampened with lukewarm
water to wipe down the inside of the cellar.
The cellar should be located in a well-ventilated area. Avoid placing it near any
source of heat or moisture, or in direct sunlight. Direct sunlight may affect the finish,
and nearby heat sources will cause higher electrical consumption.
The wine cellar is designed to be either built-in or free-standing. A motorized fan at
the bottom of the unit directs compressor-generated heat away from the compres-
sor and through the vents at the front of the unit. If the unit is built-in, allow minimum
clearances of ¼ ” at the sides, ½” at the back and 1” at the top. Airflow from the
vents at the front of the unit must be unimpeded.
Once the wine cellar is positioned, the adjustable legs should be turned to level the
appliance. This will reduce vibrations.
Electrical Connection
Important! For your personal safety, this appliance must be properly grounded. In the
event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of shock by providing
an escape wire for the electric current. This appliance is equipped with a cord hav-
ing a grounding wire with a grounding plug. The plug must be inserted into an outlet
that is properly grounded and installed. Consult a qualified electrician if you do not
completely understand these grounding instructions.
DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES CUT OR REMOVE THE THIRD (GROUND) PRONG
FROM THE POWER CORD.
Use of an Extension Cord
Avoid the use of an extension cord because of potential safety hazards under cer-
tain conditions.
