to accommodate a two plug outlet ,This is a dangerous practice since it
provides no effective grounding for the wine cooler and may result in shock
hazard.
Install Limitations
zDo not install your wine cooler in any location not properly insulated or heated
e.g. garage etc, Your wine cooler was not designed to operate in temperature
settings below 55oF.
zSelect a suitable location for the wine cooler 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 cooler.
zYour wine cooler is designed for free-standing installation only, It is not
designed for built-in application.
Initial Setup
Electronic Controlled Units
Once you have plugged the unit into an electrical outlet, Let the unit run for at
least 30 minutes to acclimate itself before making any adjustments, during this
time the Red Wine light may stay on.

１０
INSTALLATION AND ACCESSORY PARTS
Mechanical Controlled Units:
The control for this is on the back of the unit. There are 6 settings plus 0 (OFF).
Initially set the temperature setting to 3. Let the unit run for at least 30 minutes to
acclimate itself before making any adjustments.
Temperature Adjustments:

●The wine cooler is preset from the factory to automatically 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 cooler can be set to any temperature you desire to accommodate
your wine storage requirements. To set the temperature, press both the
"White Wine" and "Red Wine" buttons simultaneously and hold for
approximately 3 seconds. Now you are in temperature set mode. Decrease
the temperature by pushing the "White Wine" button and increase the
temperature by pressing the "Red Wine" button. Pressing the appropriate

１１
INSTALLATION AND ACCESSORY PARTS
button 3 times will adjust the temperature 3 degrees, press 4 times equals 4
degrees, 5 times equals 5 degrees, and so on. Once you have selected the
temperature you desire, push the "Light/Set" button. Now the wine cooler is
programmed and the LED readout will return to current internal temperature
reading
●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
cooler 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 cooler 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.
