SAFETY INFORMATION
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
In the event of malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of
least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock.
The appliance must be connected to a cord having an equipment-
grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged
into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

Page 5
SAFETY INFORMATION
DANGER - Improper connection of the equipment grounding conductor
can result in a risk of electric shock. The conductor with insulation
having an outer surface that is green with or without yellow stripes is
the equipment grounding conductor. If repair or replacement of the
cord or plug is necessary, do not connect the equipment-grounding
conductor to a live terminal. Check with a qualified electrician or
service person if the grounding instructions are not completely
understood, or if in doubt as to whether the [tool/appliance] is properly
grounded. Do not modify the plug connected to the [tool/appliance] –
if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified
electrician.
FOR GROUNDED, CORD-CONNECTED [TOOL/APPLIANCE] RATED
LESS THAN 15A AND INTENDED FOR USE ON A NOMINAL 120V
SUPPLY CIRCUIT
The appliance is for use on a nominal 120V circuit and should be
connected to a grounding outlet that looks like the one illustrated
below. The use of a temporary adaptor is not recommended.
POWER SUPPLY CORD
1. Avoid the use of an extension cord because of potential safety
hazards under certain conditions. Have a qualified electrician or
serviceman to install an outlet near the appliance.
2. If it is absolutely necessary to use an extension cord, extreme care
must be exercised.
a) Use only a grounding type 3-wire extension cord that has a
3-blade grounding plug and a 3-slot receptacle that will accept the
plug on the appliance.
b) The marked electrical rating of the extension cord must equal to or
greater than the electrical rating of the appliance. The longer cord
should be arranged so that it will not drape over the counter top
or table top where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over
unintentionally.
NOTE: Neither BLACK+DECKER nor the dealer can accept any liability for
damage to the product or personal injury resulting from failure to
observe the electrical connection procedures.

INSTALLATION GUIDE
1. Unpack your Wine Cellar by removing all packaging materials like
carton, base, foams, adhesive tape, etc.
2. Remove all accessories, internal packaging material that was used to
hold shelves, etc., in place during transport.
3. Clean the remains of all adhesive tape used and remove all printed
material supplied.
4. Install the Wine Cellar in a convenient location away from extreme
heat and cold. Allow sufficient clearance between the Wine Cellar
and side wall so the door(s) will open without obstruction. Wine
Cellar is not designed for recessed installation.
5. The floor on which the Wine Cellar should be placed must be flat,
hard, solid, and even. The Wine Cellar should not be placed on any
soft material such as carpeting, foam, plastic, etc.
6. To level your Wine Cellar, use the two leveling legs located on the
bottom front of your Wine Cellar. Adjust by turning the legs counter
clockwise to raise or clockwise to lower your Wine Cellar. The door
will close easier if the leveling legs are extended.
7. The following is the recommended minimum clearance behind the
Wine Cellar for proper air circulation:
Sides: 2” (50mm)
Top: 2” (50mm)
Proper air circulation will help your Wine Cellar work at maximum
efficiency.
NOTE: The appliance must be correctly connected to the power supply.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
STARTING YOUR NEW WINE CELLAR
After cleaning your wine cellar thoroughly. Wipe the outside with a soft dry
cloth and the interior with a clean moist cloth. Insert the power supply cord
into the socket.
NOTE: If the wine cellar has been placed in a horizontal or tilted position for
any period of time, wait 24 hours before plugging the unit in.
TEMPERATURE CONTROL
• Turn the variable temperature control knob to the setting appropriate for
the type of wine you are storing.
Red is the warmest setting most suitable for red wine. Setting the
temperature control to the red setting selects a temperature around 64
degrees Fahrenheit. White is the coolest setting suitable for storing white
wine. Turning the temperature control knob all the way to the coolest
setting selects a temperature at approximately 40 degrees Fahrenheit
If you are storing both red and white wine, select a temperature in the
middle. It is suggested you store the red wine on the top and white wine
on the bottom. Allow up to 12 hours for temperature to stabilize if the
wine cellar is loaded to capacity.
• If you choose to change the thermostat setting, adjust thermostat control
one increment at a time. Allow several hours for temperature to stabilize
between adjustments.
• Large amounts of wine will lower the cooling eciency of the appliance.
• Turning the temperature to “0” position will shut o the cooling cycle, but
does not turn o the electrical power to the unit.
NOTE: Wait 3-5 minutes before restarting if you unplug the wine cellar.
The unit may fail to operate properly if restarted too quickly.
• Make sure wine bottles do not touch the back of the cabinet.
• Do not overload wine cellar.

CLEANING AND CARE
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
CAUTION
To avoid personal injury or product damage always read and
follow manufacturer’s instructions and warnings before
using any cleaning products.
WARNING
Always unplug appliance before cleaning to avoid electric shock.
Ignoring this warning may result in death or injury
POWER INTERRUPTION
In case of a power interruption/outage, unplug the power cord from the wall
outlet. Replug the power cord to the wall outlet once the power has been
restored.
CLEANING METHOD
Prepare a cleaning solution of 3-4 tablespoons of baking soda mixed with
warm water. Use sponge or soft cloth, dampened with the cleaning solution
to wipe down your wine cellar.
• Rinse with clean warm water and dry with a soft cloth.
• Do not use harsh chemicals, abrasives, ammonia, chlorine bleach,
concentrated detergents, solvents or metal scouring pads. Some of these
chemicals may dissolve, damage and/or discolor your wine cellar.

Page 14
CLEANING AND CARE
DOOR GASKET
Clean door gaskets every three months according to general instructions.
Gasket must be kept clean and pliable to assure a proper seal.
• Petroleum jelly applied lightly on the hinge sides of gaskets will keep the
gasket pliable and ensure a good seal.
VACATION AND MOVING CARE
• For long vacations or absences, set the temperature dial to “OFF”,
unplug the unit, empty contents from wine cellar and clean the wine
cellar and door gaskets according to “General Cleaning” section. Prop
doors open, so air can circulate inside.
• When traveling or moving the wine cellar, always transport the unit
vertically. Moving the unit on its sides may damage the wine cellar
and/or its compressor. Do not move or store the unit on its side

Page 15
CLEANING AND CARE
ENERGY SAVING TIPS
• The wine cellar should be located in the coolest area of the room,
away from heat-producing appliances or heating ducts, and out of
direct sunlight.
• Overloading the wine cellar forces the compressor to run longer and
thus increase energy consumption.
• The shelves should not be lined with aluminum foil, wax paper, or
paper towels. This will interfere with cold air circulation, making the
wine cellar less ecient.
• Organize wine to reduce door openings and extended searches.
Remove as many items as needed at one time, and close the door as
soon as possible.
