IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
Do not store food in wine refrigerator, as interior temperature may not get cool enough to
prevent spoilage.
OPERATINGYOUR WINE REFRIGERATOR
It is recommended that you keep the wine refrigerator in a place where the ambient
temperature is between 77-80.6°F. If the ambient temperature is above or below
recommended temperature, the performance of the unit may be affected. For example,
placing in extreme cold or hot conditions may cause interior temperature to fluctuate.
The range of 54-66°F may not be reached.
The display reflects the temperature at the center of the wine refrigerator. Temperature
may fluctuate approximate +/-7 degrees at the top to the bottom.
The temperature may fluctuate depending on whether or not the interior light is on or off
or whether the bottles are located on the upper/middle or lower section.
How to use the press-buttons on the Display Panel:
You can set the temperature as you desire by using the press buttons. Use
the “▲” and “▼” to adjust the temperature by 1°F among 54-66°F. You
can turn the interior light on or off by pressing the “light” button.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Cleaning Your Wine Refrigerator
zUnplug the wine refrigerator and remove the bottles.

be about 2 tablespoons of baking soda to a quart of water.
zThe outside of the wine refrigerator should be cleaned with mild detergent and
warm water.
zUnscrew the water box at the bottom, and wash it.
Storage
Shelving is meant to hold standard 750ml size bottle, using larger Pinot Noir/Rhone size
bottles may limit the capacity. If you would like to store larger bottles you can easily
remove any of the shelves. This will also prevent scarping the labels on the larger
bottles.

proper storing temperature for the all wine, both red and white, is 53°F - 57°F.
