Setting up your wine cooler
Before using your cooler
• Remove the exterior and interior packing.
• Let the cooler stand upright for approximately four hours before
connecting it to power. This reduces the possibility of a malfunction in
the cooling system from improper handling during transportation.
• Clean the interior surface with lukewarm water using a soft cloth.
Finding a suitable location
• This cooler is designed to be built-in or free standing.
• Place your cooler on a floor, countertop, or cabinet that is strong
enough to support the cooler when it is fully loaded.
• Locate the cooler away from direct sunlight and sources of heat (stove,
heater, radiator, and so on). Direct sunlight may affect the acrylic
coating and heat sources may increase electrical consumption.
Ambient temperature below 55°F (12.8°C) or above 90°F (32°C) will
hinder the performance of this cooler. This cooler is not designed for
use in a garage or any other outside installation.

Building in your wine cooler
The cutout dimensions shown in the following graphic allow the door to
swing open and provides access to the pull-out shelves when installed as
a built-in unit.
If you are installing the unit between frameless cabinets, a ½” wide filler
strip or side panel may be needed on the hinge side. The filler strip will act
as a spacer between the appliance case and the adjacent cabinet door
swing. The width of the opening must include the filler panels. The door
should extend at least one inch beyond the surrounding cabinets.
Leveling your cooler
• It is very important for the cooler to be level in order to function
properly. If the cooler is not leveled during installation, the door may
not close or seal properly, causing cooling, frost, or moisture problems.
• To level your cooler, you may either turn the leveling foot clockwise to
raise that side to the cooler or turn it counter-clockwise to lower that
side.

Grounding requirement
This cooler must be grounded. This cooler is equipped with a cord having
a grounding wire with a grounding plug. The plug must be inserted into
an outlet that is properly installed and grounded.
Consult a qualified electrician or service person if the grounding
instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt exists as to
whether the cooler is properly grounded.
Connecting to power
• Plug the appliance into a dedicated, properly installed grounded wall
outlet. This appliance should be operated on a separate electrical circuit
from other operating appliances. 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 service center.
• Plug in and run your cooler for three to four hours before making any
temperature adjustments and before adding wine. This allows your cooler
to reach a stable temperature.
• Do not use an extension cord with this cooler. If the power cord is too
short, have a qualified electrician install an outlet near the cooler. Use of
an extension cord can negatively affect the cooler’s performance.
Warning
• Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of
electric shock.
• Do not, under any circumstances, cut or remove the third
ground prong from the supplied power cord.
Caution
This unit is not designed to be installed in an RV or used with an
inverter.
Notes
• Check your local power source. This cooler requires a
110V-120V, 60 Hz power supply.
• Use a receptacle that accepts the grounding prong. The
power cord is equipped with a 3-prong (grounding) plug
which mates with a standard 3-prong (grounding) wall
outlet to minimize the possibility of electric shock hazard
from this cooler.

Using your wine cooler
Turning on your cooler
Press the button to turn your cooler on. The display screen and
indicators blink for three seconds and an audible beep will be heard, then
the compressor starts working.
You can manually set your unit to “Standby” mode by touching the
button for approximately three seconds, provided that the control keys
are unlocked and no other setting is in effect (the display is not blinking).
Repeating this action restarts the unit.
Setting the temperature
The screen display always shows the set temperature. When adjusting the
temperature, the temperature display blinks to indicate that the
temperature is being adjusted.
The temperature in the upper and lower zones can be set independently
by touching the or buttons for the selected zone. The temperature
range of both zones can be set between 39° F to 64° F (4° C to 18° C).
When the or buttons are pressed, the temperature will increase or
decrease in increments of one degree. If the or buttons are pressed
and held for two seconds, the temperature will increase or decrease at a
speed of one degree per half second.
After you have adjusted the upper and/or lower zone to the temperature
you want, release the button. The temperature display will blink for
approximately three seconds to confirm the selected temperature.
Changing the temperature display
The temperature display can be exchanged between Celsius and
Fahrenheit by simultaneously pressing and holding the buttons for
approximately three seconds.
Note
The temperature may vary ± 5° F (± 3° C) from the temperature
set.
Notes
• A large number of bottles will lower the cooling efficiency
of the cooler.
• Adjust the thermostat setting by one increment at a time.
Allow several hours for the temperature to stabilize
between adjustments.

Understanding the dual temperature zones
There are two temperature zones in this appliance. They are divided by a
partition.
• Each zone has its own independent temperature control and display.
• Each zone can be used to store wine bottles.
• The upper zone can hold up to 16 bottles.
• The lower zone can hold up to 28 bottles.
The temperature after a power failure will be the temperature previously
set.
Upper Zone
• There are two wine shelves of full depth in the upper zone. Each shelf
can hold up to eight bottles, with the necks of the bottles alternating
front to back. Fewer bottles can be accomodated if larger bottles are
also included.
• You can move the shelf to the second supporting guide if you want to
store cans there.
Lower Zone
• There are two full-depth wine shelves in the lower zone. Each shelf can
hold up to eight bottles, with the necks of the bottles alternating front
to back.
• There is one wood shelf at the bottom of the lower zone. A total of 12
bottles can be stored on this shelf, in two layers, with six bottles in
each layer.

Arranging bottles for maximum storage
If you will only be storing smaller bottles, we suggest that you use the “All
small bottles” layout shown above.
If you will be storing a combination of large and small bottles, the “Large
and small bottles” layout suggested above may help. Due to the wide
range of bottle sizes available, we suggest that you begin by placing the
large bottles (over 2 31/32”) on the top shelf, then place the smaller
bottles (2 31/32” or smaller) in the available space remaining. The second
shelf will only accomodate smaller bottles. If you need to accomodate
additional larger bottles, we suggest removing the third shelf, then begin
by placing the smaller bottles on the fourth shelf, then place the larger
bottles on top of them. The bottom shelf should be reserved for smaller
bottles only. The following information should help you plan your storage
layout:
Shelf spacing from top to bottom
• Top to first shelf - 4 1/3” (11 cm)
• Between first and second shelf - 2 31/32" (7.55 cm)
• Between the control panel and the third shelf - 3 1/5” (8.18 cm)
• Between the third and fourth shelves - 2 31/32" (7.55 cm)
• Between the fourth and fifth shelves - 6 2/32" (15.4 cm)
Bottle size chart
Use this chart to determine if the bottle type you want will fit:
Note
The compressor takes up some space above the 5th shelf, so
some bottles may not fit.

Built-in 4.9 Cu. Ft. Wine Cooler
www.insigniaproducts.com
Arranging your wine
In order to maintain good air circulation in the cooler, do not let the
bottles touch the back of the cooler.
Serving and storage tips
We suggest that you pour wine at a temperature below the ideal serving
temperature, because the wine warms up quickly after it’s been poured
into a glass.
• Strong beers (like barleywines, tripels, dark ales) will be their happiest at
room temperature (55-60° F or 12.8-15.5° C). Most of your standard ales
(like bitters, IPAs, dobbelbocks, lambics, stouts, etc.) should be at cellar
temperature (50-55° F or 10-12.8° C). Lighter beers (like lagers, pilsners,
wheat beers, milds, etc.) should be at a refrigerated temperature (45-50° F
or 7.2-10° C).
• Do not store bottled wine by the box or case in the cooler.
• The cork of an opened bottle should always be moistened when returning
it to the bottle.
• Red wine should be allowed to breath (oxygenate) before drinking. We
suggest that you put pink/rose type wines onto the table two to five hours
before drinking and red wine four to five hours before drinking. That also
allows them to reach the suitable serving temperature. White wine, on the
other hand, can be served right away.
• Champagne should always be stored in the cooler and taken out
immediately before drinking.

Maintaining your wine cooler
Your cooler is designed for year-round use with only minimal cleaning and
maintenance.
When you first receive it, wipe the cabinet with a mild detergent and
warm water, then wipe dry with a dry cloth. Do this periodically to keep
your cooler looking new.
Cleaning the interior of your cooler:
1Turn off the cooler and unplug it from the wall outlet.
2Remove all wine/beverages.
3Wash the inside with a damp warm cloth soaked in a solution of one
quart of lukewarm water to two tablespoons of baking soda solution.
4Be sure to keep the door gasket (seal) clean to keep the unit running
efficiently.
5Dry the interior and exterior with a soft cloth.
Defrosting your cooler
The ice build-up on the inner back wall of your cooler will automatically
be defrosted in a compressor-off cycle.
When you press the button, the compressor and circulation fans for
both zones stop running while defrosting is in process.
Defrost water will drain out of the cooler, passing through the drain outlet
in the inner back wall into a drain pan located above the compressor. The
water will evaporate from the drain pan on its own.
Storing your cooler
1Turn off the cooler and unplug it from the wall outlet.
2Remove all wine/beverages.
3Clean the cooler.
4Leave the door open slightly to avoid possible formation of
condensation, mold, or odor.
Caution
To prevent damage to the finish, do not use:
• Gasoline, benzine, thinner, or other similar solvents.
• Abrasive cleaners.
Caution
Use extreme caution with children. The unit should not be
accessible to child's play.

Tips on saving energy
• Locate your cooler in the coolest area of the room, away from heat
producing appliances or heating ducts and out of the direct sunlight.
• Do not overload the cooler. It forces the compressor to run longer.
• Do not open the door too often, especially if the weather is very hot. Close
the door as soon as possible to prevent cool air from escaping.
• Make sure that the appliance is sufficiently ventilated, with adequate air
circulation behind it.
