INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Before Using Your Appliance
Remove the exterior and interior packing.
Before connecting the appliance to the power source, let it stand upright for approximately 2 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 using the screws that are provided.
Avoid use of abrasive products and never use alcohol!
Installation of Your Appliance
This appliance is designed for free standing or built-in (fully recessed) installation.
Place your appliance on a floor that is strong enough to support it when it is fully loaded. To level your appliance,
adjust the front leveling legs at the bottom.
Locate the appliance 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. Extremely cold ambient
temperatures may also cause the unit not to perform properly.
Avoid locating the unit in moist areas.
Plug the appliance into an exclusive, properly installed and 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 and authorized products service center.
This appliance is intended to be installed in a space between two units.
The minimum space required is:
600mm wide × 600mm deep × 865mm high
Please note: When the product is installed, there should be a small ventilation gap between the top of the unit and
the underside of any fitting above (6mm or 1/4").

Storage
Bottles can differ in size. Accordingly, the actual number of bottles you can store may vary.
The approximate maximum bottle capacity can be achieved when storing traditional 750 ml Bordeaux bottles in
bulk storage.
You may load your wine bottles in single rows or by stacking while taking note of the following: if you do not have
enough bottles to fill your wine cellar, it is better to distribute the load throughout the wine cellar so as to avoid “all
on top” or “all below” type loads.
Do remove or relocate adjustable wooden shelves to accommodate larger types of bottles or increase the
capacity of the cellar by stacking the bottles when necessary. (See instructions for removing shelves, above.)
Keep small gaps between the walls and the bottles to allow air to circulate. As in an underground cellar, air
circulation is important to prevent mold and for a more homogeneous temperature within the cellar.
To facilitate air circulation, do not overload your wine cellar.
Avoid obstructing the internal fans (located inside on the rear panel of the wine cellar).
To prevent bottles from falling, do not try to slide the shelves outward beyond the fixed position.
Do not pull out more than one loaded shelf at a time as this may cause the wine cellar to tilt forward if not
properly installed.
