Installation Instruction
1. Location
•Place the wine cabinet in a properly ventilated location. Otherwise, heat
exhausted by the cooling unit will build up and it will not operate properly.
•The exhaust area must not be closed space and must be ventilated.
1) Rear Exhaust
•Leave min 6 “clearance from the rear to the wall.
•Leave min 12” clearance from the top to the ceiling.
•Leave min 6” clearance from the left and right sides.
2) Front Exhaust
•Leave min 6” clearance from the front if left and right sides unobstructed.
•Or, leave min 36” clearance from the front if left and right sides obstructed
3) Top Exhaust
•Leave min 12” from the top to the ceiling.
•Leave min 2 “clearance from the rear to the wall.
•Leave min 2” clearance from the left and right sides.
4) Side Exhaust
•Leave min 6 “clearance from the left or right side to the wall.
•Leave min 12” clearance from the top to the ceiling.

Fig. 2.2 MOUNTING OPENINGS
Fig. 2.3 TOP EXHAUST GASKET
•Cut a rectangular opening with the ¼” clearance inwards to the width and
height of the cooling unit, the opening is positioned from the top and
center of the cabinet (see Fig. 2.2).

- 7 -
•If top exhaust, cut a rectangular opening at the top of the cabinet to the
length and width of the top exhaust openings (see Fig. 2.2).
•Mount the gaskets on the four rear mounting sides.
•If top exhaust, place the gaskets along the top openings at the top of the
cooling unit. (See Fig. 2.3)
•Place the cooling unit to a flat and stable place.
•Then move it on the top of the rack temporally.
•Move the cooling unit towards the mounting sides and push to press the
gasket.
•Locate the 2 brackets (6) and use 7/16” wrench to tighten the 2 screws (7).
•If top exhaust, install the top exhaust grille at the top of the cabinet with
the arrow towards the front and facing down the cabinet.
•Plug the cooling unit in receptacle.
•Screw the 2 screws (4) and locate the light on the ceiling.
•Plug the light in receptacle.
•Plug the wine cabinet.
3. Electrical Cord
•Because of potential safety hazards under a certain condition, we strongly
recommend against the use of an extension cord. However, if you still
elect to use an extension cord, it is absolutely necessary that it will be a
UL LISTED 3-wire grounding type appliance extension cord having a 3-
blade grounding plug and a 3-slot receptacle that will plug into the
appliance. The marked rating of the extension cord should be 115 V, 15 A.

Temperature & Humidity Control
1. Temperature Setting
•Set the temperature at 55~60 °Ffor the optimum aging of wine
•On initial start-up, the time required to reach the desired temperature
will vary, depending on the quantity of bottles, temperature setting
and surrounding temperature.
•Allow 24 hours to stabilize the temperature for each new temperature
setting operation
2. Use of the controller
