CARE AND MAINTENANCE
CLEANING THE DRINKS FRIDGE
•Turn off the power, unplug the appliance, and remove all items including shelves.
•Wipe the inside surfaces with a sponge and baking soda solution. The solution should be about 2
tablespoons of baking soda to 1 litre of warm water.
•Wash the shelves with a mild detergent solution. Allow wooden shelves to dry before placing back
into the wine cooler.
•Wring excess water out of the sponge or cloth when cleaning area of the controls, or any electrical
parts.
•Wipe the outside cabinet with warm water and mild liquid detergent. Dry with a clean soft cloth.
Do not use steel wool or steel brush on the stainless steel. These will contaminate the stainless
steel with steel particles and rusting may occur. Olive Oil is great to run on stainless for protection
against rust.

•Securely tape down all loose items (shelves) inside your appliance.
•Turn the adjustable leg up to the base to avoid damage.
•Tape the door shut.
•Be sure the appliance stays secure in the upright position during transportation. Also protect
outside of appliance with a blanket, or similar item.
ENERGY SAVING TIPS
•The appliance should be located away from heat producing appliances, and away from direct
sunlight.
•Ensure that the unit is adequately ventilated. Never cover air vents at front.
•Only open the door when necessary. Avoid leaving the door open for long periods or
opening/closing the door frequently.
•For beer units, when you are away, set at 8-10°C, this means much less energy consumption
and still will keep beverages from spoiling
•Keep unit at least ¾ full, this will ensure less run times, as less air to chill
•Every 12months or so check your rear wire condenser (behind panel) for dust and particle build
up, this can cause over running and overheating if blocked. Clean with brush or vacuum up the
build-up of dust/particles.
