operation of the wine cabinet.
The wine cellar should be placed where the ambient temperature is between 5ºC to 35ºC.
If the ambient temperature is above or below this range, the performance of the unit may
be affected. Placing your unit in extreme cold or hot conditions may cause interior
temperatures to fluctuate. The ideal range of temperature may not be reached. (See
Climate Class at the end of this manual)
Grounding instructions
The wine cellar must be grounded in case of an electrical short circuit. Grounding reduces
the risk of electrical shock. The wine cellar is equipped with a power cord having a
grounding wire and plug. The wine cellar plug must be plugged into a properly affixed and
grounded electrical outlet.
Note: In locations where there is frequent lightning, it is advisable to use surge
protectors.
Improper use of the grounding plug can result in the risk of electric shock. Consult a
qualified electrician or service person if the grounding instructions are not completely
understood.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replace by a qualified person in order to avoid
electrical hazard.
INSTALLING YOUR WINE CELLAR
Unpack and remove all of the protection and adhesive strips from the packaging around
and inside the wine cellar.
The wine cellar must be positioned such that the plug is accessible. Release the power
cord. Move your wine cellar to its final location. The wine cellar should be installed in a
suitable place where the compressor will not be subject to physical contact.
Leveling your wine cellar: Wine cellar must be leveled BEFORE loading your wines.
Your Vintec wine cellar is equipped with 4 adjustable feet to facilitate easy leveling.
VINTEC recommends that you tighten the back feet to the maximum and adjust the front
feet to level the wine cellar.

Fixing the Back spacer:
Compressor run appliances require proper ventilation for proper and longer usage. Your
Vintec wine cellar is supplied with a back spacer. Affix the back spacer at the back of the
cellar for air circulation and heat evacuation.
IMPORTANT - THIS SPACER MUST BE ATTACHED TO THE UNIT BEFORE
THE INSTALLATION, FOR VENTILATION PURPOSE. FAILURE TO DO SO VOIDS THE
WARRANTY
