• Your wine cellar has four 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.
• 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)

Electrical Requirement
•Make sure there is a suitable power Outlet (115 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 prac-
tice 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.
• 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 haz-
ards 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.

Use of Extension Cord

•Your wine cellar has an electronic temperature control in front of the
unit. The two individual temperature zones maintain their own
temperature with the dual controls. The cooling temperature ranges
from 46˚ F to 64˚ F. This makes it ideal for white wines and reds
wine in either of the compartments. Please note that the actual
cabinet temperature in a thermal electric unit is dependent on the
ambient temperature. If the ambient temperature is too high then the
cabinet temperature may not reach the preset range.
• To raise or lower the temperature simply press the “Temp tDOWN”
or “Temp sUP” button.
• The LED display will show the actual cabinet temperature while it is
running.
•The set temperature will be displayed for several seconds once it is
set. After that it will revert back to the actual cabinet temperature.

comes on, push again for off. For maximum energy efficiency, leave
light off when not viewing your collection.
