Your U-Line Drawer unit is designed so it can be installed next to the wall
on either side (Figures 1, 2).
Figure 1 – Right wall installation
The anti-tip kit must be installed on this unit before it is used.
Never use the drawers as steps or a shelf to support more
than the drawers’ content.
3. These units must be installed in a wall or under a counter top to
allow for the installation of the anti-tip kit. The drawer unit can be
installed with an appliance or fixture located in front of it, as long as
there is adequate clearance for the drawer to be opened and
removed when servicing (Figure 3).
U-Line recommends you consider additional clearance in front of the
open drawer for convenience.

6. Wipe inside of unit and all inside drawer components with a clean,
water dampened cloth only.
LEVELING THE UNIT
It is important that the unit is level. All Échelon™ Series units are
equipped with adjustable feet for leveling and height adjustment
(Figure 5).
To level the unit:
1. Adjust all four leveling feet evenly so that the top of the cabinet is at
the desired installation height.
2. Using a level of at least two feet in length, measure the level of the
floor where the unit is to be installed. Measure back-to-front and
side-to-side and note the measurements.
3. With the unit on a level surface, adjust the feet, as appropriate, to
compensate for the floor level measurements noted in Step 2.

CONNECTING THE WATER SUPPLY
Install a 1/4 inch outside diameter copper water line (not
supplied with unit) from the nearest COLD water pipe. When
connecting the water supply, follow these guidelines:
•Review the local plumbing codes before you install the unit.
•In most instances, the cold water supply will come from the base-
ment through a hole in the floor.
•The water pressure should be between 15 and 150 psi.
•Install a shut-off valve in the 1/4 inch outside diameter supply line
(not supplied with unit).
•Connect sufficient tubing to the unit to allow the unit to be moved
for cleaning and servicing. However, make certain that the tubing
is not pinched or damaged during installation.
•U-Line recommends the use of copper tubing for installation.
1. Locate the compression fitting
and ferrule packed in the unit.
Slide the compression fitting
and ferrule over the 1/4 inch
outside diameter water supply
line. Do not use thread seal-
ing compound or tape. Using
two wrenches, tighten the
compression fitting on the
supply line (see Figure 7). Do
not overtighten.
Figure 7
UL134_CO
2. Carefully bend the water supply
line into position and connect
the line to the solenoid valve
(see Figure 8). Avoid kinking
the water supply line.

3. For recessed installations,
allow extra water supply line
length to provide slack for easy
removal from the recessed
area (see Figure 9). This will
also safeguard against kinking
the line.
Figure 9
CAUTION
If you are not intending to use
the ice maker and do not con-
nect the water supply (or turn
the supply valve off), it is
imperative to raise the bucket
arm of the ice maker (see
Figure 10). Failure to raise the
bucket arm may result in
damage to the water valve.
Figure 10
NOTE
After completing the installation, turn on the water and
recheck water connection for leaks. Apply additional tighten-
ing if needed. Do not use thread sealing compound or tape.
4. Plug in the power cord.
5. Gently push the unit into position to prepare for built-in installation.

WOOD TRIM ON WINE RACKS (WINE CAPTAIN®)
Your is equipped with a natural wood trim on the wine racks
and the wine caddy for appearance and durability. The wood trim has
been coated at the factory with a clear vinyl sealer, which will ade-
quately protect the wood in normal usage.
To prevent permanent damage to the inner liner of your
Wine Captain
®
, the wine rack wood trim MUST be
removed from the unit for staining and/or finishing. Allow
stain/finish to dry thoroughly (at least 24 hours per coat)
in accordance with the stain/finish manufacturer’s
instructions prior to re-installing the wood trim inside the
cabinet of the Wine Captain
®
. Failure to do so may cause
the inner liner of the unit to have a permanent odor, which
is not covered by the warranty.
You have 3 options regarding the wood trim on the wine racks.
(1) You can leave as is, (2) add a final finish coat or (3) you may
stain the wood trim. The final finish coat was not applied at the facto-
ry so that the wood trim could be stained. YOU CANNOT STAIN
THE WOOD TRIM ONCE YOU APPLY THE FINAL FINISH. Review
the following guidelines when staining and or sealing the wood to
ensure proper adhesion and durability of the finish.
