GENERAL SAFETY REQUIREMENTS

FOLLOW WARNING CALLOUTS

BELOW ONLY WHEN APPLICABLE TO

YOUR MODEL

• Use two or more people to move and install the

appliance. Failure to do so can result in back or other

injury.

• To ensure proper ventilation for your appliance, the

front of the unit must be completely unobstructed.

• Choose a well-ventilated area with temperatures

above 60°F (16°C) and below 90°F (32°C).

• The appliance should not be located next to ovens,

grills or other sources of high heat.

• The appliance must be installed with all electrical,

water and drain connections in accordance with state

and local codes. A standard electrical supply (115 V

AC only, 60HZ), properly grounded in accordance

with the National Electrical Code and local codes and

ordinances is required.

• Do not kink or pinch the power supply cord of the

appliance.

• The size of the fuse (or circuit breaker) should be 1.3

amperes.

• It is important that the appliance be leveled in order

to work properly. You may need to make several

adjustments to level it.

• All installations must be in accordance with local

plumbing code requirements.

• Make certain that the pipes are not pinched, kinked or

damaged during installation.

• Check for leaks after connection.

• Never allow children to operate, play with or crawl

inside the appliance.

• Improper use of the grounded plug can result in

the risk of electrical shock. If the power record is

cord is damaged, have it replaced by a qualied or

authorized service dealer.

WARNING WARNING

SAFETY AND INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

• The appliance should be located in the coolest

area of the room or outdoor location, away from

heat producing appliances and out of direct

sunlight.

• Ensure that the unit is adequately ventilated.

Never cover air vents.

• Do not keep the door open any longer than

necessary.

• Let hot foods cool to room temperature before

placing in the unit. Overloading the unit forces the

compressor to run longer.

• Be sure to wrap foods properly and wipe

containers dry when placing them in the unit. This

cuts down on frost build up in side the unit.

• Unit drawer should not be lined with aluminum

foil, wax paper or paper toweling.

• Liners interfere with cold air circulation, making

the unit less ecient.

• Organizing and labeling stored items reduces

door openings and extended searches.

• Remove as many items as needed at one time

and close the door as soon as possible.

ENERGY SAVING TIPS

1. Child entrapment and suocation are not

problems of the past. Junked or abandoned

appliances are still dangerous, even if they will “just

sit for a few days.”

2. Before you discard an old, inoperative unit: remove

the door. Leave the shelves in place so that

children may not easily climb inside.

RISK OF CHILD ENTRAPMENT

• Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet, do not remove

prong, do not use an adapter and do not use an

extension cord.

• Replace all panels before operating.

• It is recommended that a separate circuit serving

only your appliance be provided. Use receptacles that

cannot be turned o by a switch or pull chain.

• Never clean appliance parts with ammable uids.

These fumes can create a re hazard or explosion.

• Do not store or use gasolines or other ammable

vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other

appliance. The fumes can create a re hazard or

explosion.

• Do not connect or disconnect the electric plug when

your hands are wet.

• Unplug the appliance or disconnect power before

cleaning or servicing. Failure to do so can result in

electrical shock or death.

• Do not attempt to repair or replace any part or your

appliance unless it is specically recommended in this

manual. All other servicing should be referred to a

qualied technician.

Before the appliance is used, it must be properly

positioned and installed as described in this manual,

so read the manual carefully. To reduce the risk of re,

electrical shock or injury when using the appliance, follow

basic precautions, including the following:

WARNING WARNING

315” WINE COOLER USER MANUAL

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

Remove the exterior and interior packing.

Before plugging in the appliance, let it stand upright for

approximately 24 hours.

Doing this will reduce the possibility of a malfunction in

the cooling system from handling during transportation.

Clean the interior surface with lukewarm water using a

soft cloth.

Install the handle on the door if it is not already

attached (see detailed instructions below)

CAUTION

Improper use of the grounded plug can result in electrical

shock.

This wine cooler should be properly grounded for your

safety. The power cord of this wine cooler is equipped with

a 3-prong plug which ts with a standard 3- prong wall

outlet to minimize the possibility of electrical shock.

Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the

third (ground) prong from the power cord supplied.

For personal safety, this appliance must be properly

grounded.

This appliance requires a standard 110 Volt AC 60Hz

three-prong grounded electrical outlet. Ensure that the

wall outlet and circuit have been checked by a qualied

electrician and conrmed to be properly grounded.

If only a 2-prong wall outlet is available, it is your

responsibility and obligation to have it replaced with a

properly grounded 3-prong wall outlet.

To prevent accidental injury, the cord should be secured

behind the appliance and not left exposed or dangling.

This wine cooler should always be plugged into its own

individual electrical outlet which has a voltage rating

that matches the rating label on the appliance. This will

allow the best performance and also prevent overloading

house wiring circuits that could cause a re hazard from

overheating. Never unplug the wine cooler by pulling on

the power cord. Always grip the plug head rmly and

pull straight out from the receptacle. Immediately repair

or replace all power cords that have become frayed or

otherwise damaged. Do not use a cord that shows cracks

or abrasion damage along its length or at either end.

When moving the appliance, be careful not to damage

the power cord.

WARNING

BEFORE OPERATING

Shipment Arriving Damaged:

Important Notes:

VISIBLE DAMAGE

If your shipment arrives with visible damage to the box/

carton, be sure the damage is noted on the bill of freight or

express receipt and signed by the person making the delivery.

File a claim for damages immediately, regardless of the

extent of damage.

CONCEALED DAMAGES

If damages are unnoticed until the wine cooler is unpacked,

notify the transportation company or carrier immediately

and le a concealed damage claim with them. This should

be done within (5) days of the delivery date. Be sure to

hold on to the box/carton for inspection. We cannot assume

responsibility for damage or loss incurred in transit.

BEFORE USING YOUR APPLIANCE

Remove the exterior and interior packing.

Before connecting the appliance to the power source, let it

stand upright for approximately 24 hours. This will reduce

the possibility of a malfunction in the cooling system from

handling during transportation. Clean the interior surface with

lukewarm water using a soft cloth. Install the handle on the

door if not already attached.

It is recommended that you install the appliance in a place

where the ambient temperature is between 61°F and 90°F

(16°C-32°C). If the ambient temperature is above or below

recommended temperatures, the performance of the unit may

be aected. For example, placing your unit in extremely cold

or hot conditions may cause interior temperatures to uctuate.

The operating temperature range may not be reached.

ASSEMBLY & INSTALLATION

Installing the Wine Cooler

This wine cooler is designed to be either built-in or

freestanding.

NOTE: This appliance may be used for the storage of

medicine and other medical products.

Place your wine cooler on a oor that is strong enough to

support it when it is fully loaded. To level the unit, adjust the

front leveling legs, or the screws on the wheels.

Make sure that the air vent at the front of the appliance is

never covered or blocked in any way.

NOTE: It is recommended that you do not install the

appliance near an oven, radiator or other heating source. Any

nearby heat sources may increase electrical consumption. Do

not install in a location where the temperature will fall below

50° F (~10°C) or above 110° F (~43°C). For best performance,

do not install the wine cooler behind a cabinet door or block

the vent in the front.

Avoid installing the wine cooler anywhere with excessive

moisture.

Plug the wine cooler into a properly grounded wall outlet. Do

not plug the wine cooler into a power strip or extension cord.

Because of potential safety hazards under certain conditions,

it is strongly recommended that you do not use an extension

cord with this appliance. However, if you must use an

extension cord, it is absolutely necessary that it be a UL/CUL-

Listed, 3-wire grounding type appliance extension cord having

a grounding type plug and outlet and that the electrical

rating of the cord be 110 volts.

To install the handle, follow the instructions below:

1. Remove the rubber gasket from the right side of the inside

of the door (you don’t need to remove the whole gasket,

just the side that covers the openings for the screws).

2. Remove the screws from the included bag. Feed the screws

through the holes from the inside until they poke through

to the outside front of the door frame.

3. Align the handle with the two screws, then tighten the

screws into the handle using a screwdriver until the handle

is both ush and secured tightly against the door frame.

DO NOT overtighten the screws, as you may cause

damage to the door frame.
