1. Remove all packaging material. This includes the foam base and all
adhesive tape holding the wine cellar accessories inside and outside.
2. Inspect and remove any remains of packing, tape or printed
materials before powering on the wine cellar.
• Your wine cellar has three leveling legs which are located in the
front and rear corners of your wine cellar. After properly placing your
wine cellar in its final position, you can level your wine cellar.
• Leveling legs can be adjusted by turning them clockwise to raise your
wine cellar or by turning them counterclockwise to lower your wine
cellar. The wine cellar door will close easier when the leveling legs are
extended.
• After leveling legs are adjusted, the door support also needs to be
adjusted to floor level.
• To assure your wine cellar works at the maximum efficiency it was
designed for, you should install it in a location where there is proper air
circulation, plumbing and electrical connections.
• The following are recommended clearances around the wine cellar:
Sides……………2" (50mm)
Top....................2" (50mm)
Back..................2" (50mm)
• Do not over fill your wine cellar for proper wine cooling.
Note: If your wine cellar has been tilted for any reason, wait 24 hours
before plugging it in.

Electrical Requirement
• Make sure there is a suitable power Outlet (120 volts, 15 amps outlet)
with proper grounding to power the wine cellar.
• Avoid the use of three plug adapters or cutting off the third grounding in
order to accommodate a two plug outlet. This is a dangerous practice
since it provides no effective grounding for the wine cellar and may
result in shock hazard.
• Do not install your wine cellar in any location not properly insulated or
heated e.g. garage etc. Your wine cellar was not designed to operate in
temperature settings below 55˚ Fahrenheit.
• Select a suitable location for the wine cellar on a hard even
surface away from direct sunlight or heat source e.g. radiators,
baseboard heaters, cooking appliances etc. Any floor unevenness
should be corrected with the leveling legs located on the front and rear
bottom corners of the wine cellar.
• Your wine cellar is designed for free-standing installation only. It is not
designed for built-in application.
• Avoid the use of an extension cord because of potential safety hazards
under certain conditions. If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use
only a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding plug and a
3-slot outlet that will accept the plug. The marked rating of the extension
cord must be equal to or greater than the electrical rating of the
appliance.

Wine Cellar Features And Use
• The wine cellar is preset from the factory to automatically
to accommodate temperature requirements for red or white wines. If you
store mostly white wines, press the "White Wine" button and the wine
cooler will maintain an average temperature between 45˚ to 50˚ F.
Pushing the "Red Wine" button will yield an average temperature
between 55˚ to 60˚ F.
• The wine cellar can be set to any temperature between 39˚ and 65˚F to
accommodate your wine storage requirements. To set the temperature
hold the "Set" button for about 3 seconds until the lock sign disappears.
Now press the "Set" button again. You will notice the temperature
display blink. Press the red or white wine button to increase or decrease
the temperature setting. Once the desired temperature is attained, press
the "Set" button. Doing this, the electronic control panel will memorize
the setting. The temperature display will read the inside temperature. It
may take some time to reach the set temperature.
CAUTION: Current setting of the wine cellar will automatically lock if no
key is pressed in a 10 second interval. This lock mode can
be inactivated by pressing the "Set" key for approximately
3 seconds.
Initial Setup
Once you have plugged the unit into an electrical outlet, let the unit run for at least
30 minutes to acclimatize itself before making any adjustments. During this time the
Red Wine light will stay on. Temperature inside the cellar, if not adjusted, will reach
a range of 55˚-60˚F.
Temperature Adjustments: See fig. # 1

• There will be a 3 degree variance +/- between the temperature you
select and the temperature indicated on the LED readout. This occurs
because the wine cellar activates and deactivates trying to maintain
your desired temperature. There is often a 10˚ variance between the top
and bottom shelves of the wine cooler. Therefore, if you have set the
wine cellar for 50˚ and have a mix of red and white wines, you may
want to put the white wine on the bottom shelf where the temperature
will be 45˚ F, and place the red wine on the top shelf where the
temperature will be 55˚ F.
Note: The temperature displayed is the current internal temperature.
• The LED screen displays the percentage of humidity in the wine cellar.
• The humidity control located at the rear of the unit helps in air circula-
tion and to adjust humidity level in the wine cellar.
• To have all the air holes open simply adjust the humidity control so as
all the holes are on the top. (see fig. #2)
Note: Unit internal humidity is relevant to outside temperature.
• The shelves are designed for appearance and easy cleaning. Larger
bottles or Magnums can be more easily accommodated at the cross
shelves at the bottom of the cellar.
• Your wine cellar comes with wine shelves which glide out. This number
depends on the model purchased.
• To remove the glide out shelves, pull out the shelf completely, carefully
lift the shelf from the securing hooks on the tracks and remove.
To replace the shelf make sure that the securing hooks on each track are
in between the shelf stoppers on the shelf.

• The deodorizer holes help to remove stale unwanted odor.
• The deodorizer air holes are located on the rear of the unit.
• To complement the look of your wine collection, a soft light has been
built into the wine cellar. Simply push the "Light" button and the light
comes on, push again for off. For maximum energy efficiency, leave
light off when not viewing your collection.
• Boiling water, gurgling sounds or slight vibrations that are the result of
the refrigerant circulating through the cooling coils.
• The thermostat control will click when it cycles on and off.
