dimensions, door swing clearance and electri-
cal placement for Models 424 and 424FS.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
A115 V AC, 60 Hz, 15 amp circuit breaker and
electrical supply are required. A separate
circuit, servicing only this appliance, is
required.
The power supply cord has a 3-prong ground-
ing plug, which must be plugged into a mating
3-prong grounding-type wall receptacle. Follow
the National Electrical Code and local codes
and ordinances when installing the receptacle.
For location of the electrical supply, refer to the
Installation Specifications illustration on page 3.
IMPORTANT NOTE: For Models 424 and
424FS, the electrical outlet must be placed so
the grounding prong is to the right of the
thinner blades. The outlet must be flush with
the back wall.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Aground fault circuit
interrupter (GFCI) is not recommended and
may cause interruption of operation.
HOME ALARM SYSTEM
If a home alarmsystem is to be used, refer to
Home Alarm Connections on page 8. In addition
to operating power, the installer may also be
required to supply a home automation system
lead to the unit. This is for a low-voltage, low-
current signal similar to door and window
sensor signals. Common, normally open and
normally closed contact configurations are
provided.
Three 1/4"(6) female spade connectors are
located in the compressor compartment and
are accessible behind the kickplate on Models
424 and 424FS. A minimum of 36" (914) of lead
wireshould be provided for each contact,
exiting the back wall near the electrical outlet.
MODELS 424 AND 424FS INSTALLATION
UNPACKING AND MOVING
Uncrate the unit, remove its wood base and
discard the shipping bolts that hold the wood
base to the bottom of the unit. Remove all
packing materials and tape.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Do not discard the
kickplate, anti-tip bracket and hardware. These
items will be needed for the installation.
All roller-assembly wine shelves should be
removed to reduce weight and prevent them
from rolling. To remove, pull the shelf out to
its full extension, gently and evenly lift up on
both sides of the front of the shelf and remove.
Reverse the procedure to reinstall the shelf.
Use an appliance dolly to move the Wine
Storage unit. Position the dolly at the back of
the unit to prevent damage to finished
surfaces.
Do not use an extension cord or two-
prong adapter. Electrical ground is
required on this appliance.
Before moving the Wine Storage unit in
to position, protect any finished flooring
with appropriate materials and secure the
door closed.

ANTI-TIP BRACKET INSTALLATION
An anti-tip bracket and hardware is provided
with the Wine Storage unit. The anti-tip
bracket must be installed on a solid base to
prevent tipover in case several loaded wine
shelves are extended at the same time.
MODEL 424
The anti-tip bracket should be attached to the
wall behind the unit with the bracket flange
located immediately above the top of the unit.
Refer to illustration 1 below.
Asmaller metal ‘countertop’ bracket is also
provided with the Model 424, for installations
that need to be modified to provide a secure
surface for attaching the bracket. This bracket
will securethe front of the unit to the under-
side of the countertop, above the unit. Refer to
illustration 2.
MODEL 424FS
Ifyou are installing the Model 424FS in a
space deeper than 245/8"(625), the anti-tip
bracket must be installed no more than 245/8"
(625) deep, so it engages the unit properly. It is
important that this measurement be made
from the front surface of the door, to the back
of the anti-tip bracket. Refer to illustration 3
below.
To prevent the unit from tipping forward
and provide a stable installation, the unit
must be secured in place with the anti-tip
bracket.
