Lock Installation
IMPORTANT NOTE: If you are adding an accessory lock kit
to your wine storage unit, it should be installed before you
position the unit. Installation instructions are included with
the lock kit.
For model 424, the lock is attached to the bottom of the
metal door frame. The decorative door panel is not
involved in the installation or operation of the lock. The
catch portion of the lock is attached to the bottom of the
appliance cabinet in pre-punched holes. When installing
the lock kit, it may be helpful to tip the unit on its back for
easier access.
POSITION THE UNIT
IMPORTANT NOTE: If for any reason the wine storage unit
has been laid on its back or side, you must allow the unit
to stand upright for a minimum of 24 hours before con-
necting power.
Plug the power supply cord into the 15 amp grounded
electrical outlet. With power applied to the appliance,
check for lighting and cooling before going any further.
Once you are satisfied that the unit is operating properly,
shut off power to the electrical outlet at the circuit breaker
and proceed.
If a home alarm system is to be used with the wine
storage unit, the lead wires should be threaded into the
compressor compartment before you position the unit.
Refer to home alarm connections on page 9, for the
location of these lead wires. After the unit is in position,
the alarm wiring can be completed from the front.
Pre-level the wine storage unit before sliding it into
position. Leveling cannot be completed with the unit
pushed back in the installation opening.
For model 424FS, adust the leveling legs so the top of the
unit is no more than 345/8" (879) above the floor. This is to
allow the unit to engage the anti-tip bracket properly.
Center the model 424FS in front of the anti-tip bracket.
Slide the unit into position, making sure the anti-tip
bracket is engaged properly.
IMPORTANT NOTE: When the wine storage unit is
installed, the anti-tip bracket will be positioned just below
the engaging bracket on the unit. It is not necessary to
raise the unit up so that it locks into the anti-tip bracket,
but the unit must be in alignment with the anti-tip bracket.
The wine storage unit provides the best access to its
contents when the front surface of the door panel extends
out from surrounding cabinets approximately 1/4" (6). For
model 424FS, if there are no surrounding cabinet surfaces
to gauge depth, slide the unit back until it engages the
anti-tip bracket.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The floor under the wine storage unit
must be at the same level as the surrounding finished floor
to allow for removal of the unit for servicing.
Shut off the power to the electrical outlet.
