SAFETY INFORMATION & WARNINGS
When using any electrical appliance, basic safety
precautions must be followed in order to reduce the risk
of fire, electrical shock and/or injury to persons or
property. Be sure to read all instructions before using
this appliance and observe the following safety tips:
Attention: To prevent the risk of child entrapment, do not allow
children to operate, play with, or crawl inside the unit. If the unit
will not be used for an extended period of time, remove the door
and leave the shelves in place so that children cannot crawl inside.
Also remove the door when disposing of the unit.
Never clean the appliance parts with flammable fluids, as the fumes
can create a fire hazard or explosion. Do not store or use gasoline or
any other flammable vapors and liquids near this or any other
appliance.
Do not store perishable foods in the wine cooler, as the interior
temperature will not be low enough to prevent food spoilage.
Shock Hazard –Electrical Grounding Required
This cooler should be properly grounded for your safety, and in
order to minimize the possibility of electrical shock, the power cord
of this unit is equipped with a 3-prong plug which fits 3-prong wall
outlets. Improper use of the grounded plug can result in electrical
shock.
If the power cord appears to be damaged, have it replaced by an
authorized service center.
Never cut or remove the ground wire from the supplied power cord.
The use of an extension cord is not recommended.
The cord should be secured behind the cooler. Also, to prevent
accidental injury, do not expose or dangle the cord.

ASSEMBLY & INSTALLATION
HANDLE ASSEMBLY
Tools Required for Assembly: Phillips screwdriver (not included)
Estimated Assembly Time: 5 minutes
Before installation, attach the handles to the front of the unit with the included
screws. It may be necessary to push aside the rubber seal on the inside of the
door to reveal the screw holes.
Caution: Avoid over-tightening the screws, or you may cause damage to the
unit.
INSTALLATION
This cooler is a freestanding unit and should not be installed inside a cabinet or
other built-in enclosure.
For proper ventilation, allow 5 inches clearance between the back of the unit
and any adjacent walls.
Before operating your wine cooler for the first time, follow these steps:
Clean the interior surface of the unit with lukewarm water and a soft cloth.
Place the cooler on a level surface that will be strong enough to support
the unit when it is fully loaded. To level your cooler, adjust the front feet
located at the bottom of the unit.
Install the cooler away from direct sunlight and heat sources such as
stoves, heaters, or radiators. Direct sunlight may affect the unit’s acrylic
coating, and nearby heat sources can increase electrical consumption.
Extreme cold or hot ambient temperatures may also prevent proper
performance.
Please note: this cooler is only designed for home use, and is not designed
to be placed in a garage, basement, or outdoor area.

FACTORY ODOR REMOVAL
Wash the interior of the cooler with a mild detergent and warm water. Leave
the door open and allow it to air dry thoroughly. If a “plastic” smell persists,
place a dish of baking soda in the unit or stuff the cooler with newspapers
overnight. When finished, let the unit run a full day to complete the airing out
process.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
OPERATING ENVIRONMENT
It is recommended that the wine cooler be installed in an area where the
ambient temperature is between 50°- 80°F (25°-26°C). If the ambient
temperature is above or below the recommended ranges, the unit’s
performance may be affected, and extreme cold or hot conditions may cause
the interior temperature to fluctuate. This will prevent the optimal range of
50°- 60°F (10°-16°C) from being reached. In addition, keep in mind that the
temperature may fluctuate depending on whether the interior light is on or off,
and whether the bottles are located on the upper, middle, or lower racks.

To change the temperature readout to either Fahrenheit or Celsius,
simultaneously press and hold the UP and DOWN buttons for at least 3
seconds.
After turning on the wine cooler, the LED display will show the ambient
temperature first, and then the internal cabinet temperature.
After you set the desired temperature, this set temperature will flash for 5
seconds on the display and then revert back to the internal cabinet
temperature.

WINE STORAGE GUIDE
The ideal temperature for storing red or white wines is 55°F, with humidity
between 60% and 75% RH.
Store corked bottles on their sides, to keep the cork from drying out and
allowing air into the bottle.
UV rays make wine age faster, so keep bottles out of direct sunlight.
Avoid heavy vibrations from motors, etc.
Store wine separately from strong odors that might contaminate the flavor
of the wine.
How Long Should I Store My Wine?
While most wines today are meant to be drunk “young” (within a few years of
production) some fine wines are best served by proper aging. But aging too
long can decrease the flavor of the wine. Generally speaking, red wines can age
longer than white wines, but here is a storage guide for some popular vintages.
Cabernet Sauvignon…………
7-10 years
Pinot Noir………………………….
5 years
Merlot……………………………….
3-5 years
Zinfandel……………………………
2-5 years
Beaujolais………………………….

Chardonnay……………………….
