Before connecting the Wine cooler to the power source, let it stand upright for approximately
48 hours. This will reduce the possibility of a malfunction in the cooling system from
handling during transportation.
Clean the interior surface with lukewarm water using a soft cloth.
Install the handle on the left side of the door.
Installation of your wine cooler
This appliance is designed to be for free standing installation or flush mounted.
Place your wine cooler on a floor that is strong enough to support it when it is fully loaded.
To level your wine chiller, adjust the front leveling legs at the bottom of the wine chiller.
Locate the wine cooler away from direct sunlight and sources of heat (stove, heater, radiator,
etc.). Direct sunlight may affect the acrylic coating and heat sources may increase electrical
consumption. Extreme cold ambient temperatures may also cause the unit not to perform
properly.
Avoid locating the unit in moist areas.
Plug the Wine cooler into an exclusive, properly installed-grounded wall outlet. Do not under
any circumstances cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord. Any
questions concerning power and/or grounding should be directed toward a certified
electrician or an authorized Products service center.
Electrical connection
Warning: Improper use of the grounded plug can result in the risk of electrical shock. If the
power cord is damaged, have it replaced by an authorized service center.
This appliance should be properly grounded for your safety. The power cord of this appliance
is equipped with a three-prong plug which mates with standard three prong wall outlets to
minimize the possibility of electrical shock.
Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the third ground prong from the power cord
supplied. For personal safety, this appliance must be properly grounded.
This appliance requires a standard 115V/60Hz electrical ground outlet with three-prong. Have
the wall outlet and circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make sure the outlet is properly
grounded. When a standard 2-prong wall outlet is encountered, it is your responsibility and
obligation to have it replaced with a properly grounded
3-prong wall outlet. The cord should be secured behind the appliance and not left exposed or
dangling to prevent accidental injury.
The appliance should always be plugged into its own individual electrical outlet which has a

8
voltage rating that matches the rating label on the appliance. This provides the best
performance and also prevent overloading house wiring circuits that could cause a fire hazard
from overheated. Never unplug the appliance by pulling the power cord. Always grip the plug
firmly and pull straight out from the receptacle. Repair or replace immediately all power cords
that have become frayed or otherwise damaged. Do not use a cord that shows cracks or
abrasion damage along its length or at either end. When moving the appliance, be careful not
to damage the power cord.
Extension cord
Because of potential safety hazards under certain conditions, it is strongly recommended that
you do not use an extension cord with this appliance. However, if you must use an extension
cord with this appliance, it must be operated by professionals.
Power bar with surge protection
Most electrical appliances use a series of electric control boards to operate. These boards are
very susceptible to power surges and could be damaged or destroyed.
If the appliance is going to be used in an area or if your city / country is prone to power surges /
outages; it is suggested that you use a power surge protector for all electrical devices /
appliances you use. The surge protector that you select must have a surge block high
enough to protect the appliance it is connected to. If you have any questions regarding the
type and size of surge protector needed contact a licensed electrician in your area.
Damages due to power surges are not considered a manufacturer covered defect and will void
your product warranty.
Installing the stainless steel handle
This wine cooler includes a stainless steel handle. To install the handle please follow the
below instructions:
1. Pull away the door gasket in the area where the handle is to be installed on the left side as
shown below in Illustration # 1. The gasket is easily displaced by hand, no tools are
necessary.
2. Align the handle with the screws installed. Tighten the screws using a Phillips head
screwdriver until the handle sets both flush and secured tightly against the door frame.
(DO NOT over tighten as this will cause damage to the handle assembly).
3. Replace the door gasket to its original position.

Power failure
Most power failures are corrected within a few hours and should not affect the temperature of
your appliance if you minimize the number of times the door is opened. If the power is going to
be off for a longer period of time, you need to take the proper steps to protect your contents.
Moving your wine chiller
Remove all items (bottles)
Tape down securely all loose items (shelves) inside your appliance.
Turn the adjustable leg up to the base to avoid damage.
Tape the door shut.
Be sure the appliance stays secure in the upright position during transportation. If you
absolutely need to transport the cooler horizontally, transport the cooler on its back (door on
top). Also protect outside of appliance with a blanket, or similar item.
Energy saving tips
The wine cooler should be located in the coolest area of the room, away from heat producing
appliances, and out of the direct sunlight.
Charcoal filtration system
Your wine is a living object that breathes through the cork of its bottle. In order to preserve
the quality and taste of your fine wines, they must be stored at the ideal temperature and
ambient conditions. Your cellar is equipped with an active charcoal filtration system to ensure
air purity, cooling efficiency, and to maintain an odor free cabinet for the storage of your fine
wines. The filter assembly is located at the rear panel inside your cellar.
Keep in mind, that this filter must be changed every 12 months.
