Operation and Controls
TRANSPORT OF THE WINE COOLER
The ideal packaging for the wine cooler is its original packaging. Please keep the original packaging handy
and repack the wine cooler if you need to transport the unit.
OPERATING THE WINE COOLER
It is recommended you install the appliance in a place where the ambient temperature is between 68º-78ºF.
If the ambient temperature is above or below recommended temperatures, the performance may be affect-
ed. For example, placing your Wine Cooler in extreme cold or hot conditions may cause interior tempera-
tures to fluctuate.
RECOMMENDED TEMPERATURE SETTINGS
DEFROSTING
Under most ambient conditions, the wine cooler does not need to be defrosted. In cold ambient tempera-
tures and/or high humidity, some frost may build up. To defrost, remove all items, unplug the wine cooler
and leave the door open. Never use a knife or other metal instrument to scrape ice/frost. After defrosting,
plug in the wine cooler and set the desired temperature.
PREPARING FOR STORAGE
If the wine cooler will not be used for a long time, or is to be moved to another place, it will be necessary to
defrost the unit and dry the interior.
1. Disconnect the wine cooler from the power supply by removing the power plug from the wall socket.
2. Leave the door open to allow for air circulation and to prevent mold, mildew and unpleasant smells.
CAUTION: Store the unit out of the reach of children. If you have children, you may want to take addi-
tional precautions such as removing the door to prevent a child from being trapped inside the wine
cooler
Note:
If the wine cooler is unplugged, encounter power lost, or turned off; you must wait 3 to 5 minutes before
restarting the wine cooler.
When the wine cooler is used for the first time or restarted after having been shut off for a long time,
there could be a few degrees variance between the temperature you select and the one indicated on
the display. This is normal and it is due to the length of the inactivation time.
