Excessive Weight Hazard
Use two or more people to move and install WineStation.
Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.
Electrical Shock Hazard
FOR PERSONAL SAFETY, the WineStation must be properly grounded.
Have the wall outlet and the circuit checked by a qualified electrician
to make sure the outlet is properly grounded.
Recommended Grounding Method
The WineStation should always be plugged into its own individual properly grounded electrical outlet rated
for 115 Vac, 10A 50/60 Hz, AC only (230Vac 10A 50/60Hz in Europe). This provides the best performance
and also prevents overloading facility wiring circuits which could cause a fire hazard from overheated wires.
It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only the WineStation be provided. Use receptacles which
cannot be turned off with a switch or pull chain. Do not use an extension cord. Where a standard two-
prong wall outlet is encountered, it is your personal responsibility and obligation to have it replaced with
a properly grounded three-prong wall outlet.
Do not, under any circumstances, cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord.
NOTE: Before performing any type of installation, cleaning, or removing of parts, turn the control OFF and
then disconnect the WineStation from the electrical source. When you are finished, reconnect the
WineStation to the electrical source and reset the controls to the desired setting.
3-prong grounding type wall receptacle
Ensure 3-prong grounded plug
exists before use
Ensure proper grounding exists before use

2. Installing the WineStation.

and position the WineStation into the installation location.

possible). DO NOT remove the leveling feet – they are required for proper air
circulation; doing so will void the warranty. (See Appendix Product Specifications
