IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or injury when
using your appliance, follow these basic precautions:
Read all instructions before using the beverage center.
DANGER: Risk of child becoming trapped in new beverage center, old beverage center/refrigeration unit, or
large boxes.
Junked or abandoned appliances, boxes and other containers are still dangerous, even if they will “just sit in
the garage for a few days”.
Before you throw away your old beverage center or refrigeration unit: 1. Take off the door. 2. Leave the
shelves in place so that children cannot climb inside.
Never allow children to operate, play with, or crawl inside the appliance.
Never clean appliance parts with flammable fluids. The fumes can create a fire hazard or explosion.
Do not store in the vicinity of any other appliance. Do not store near gasoline or any other flammable vapors.
The fumes can create a fire hazard or explosion.
-Save these instructions-
BEFORE USING YOUR BEVERAGE CENTER
Remove the exterior and interior packaging.
Before connecting the beverage center to the power source, let it stand upright for approximately 2 hours.
This will reduce the possibility of a malfunction in the cooling system from handling during transportation.
Clean the interior surface with lukewarm water using a soft cloth.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
(a) General Installation Instructions
This appliance is designed for free standing installation or recessed into cabinetry (built-in).
Place your beverage center on a flat, solid floor that is strong enough to support it when it is fully loaded.
To level your beverage center, adjust the front leveling leg at the bottom of the beverage center.
When moving your beverage center, please do not incline it more than 45 degrees.
Locate the beverage center away from direct sunlight and sources of heat (stove, heater, radiator, etc.).
Direct sunlight may affect the acrylic coating and heat sources may increase electrical consumption.
Extreme cold ambient temperatures may also cause the unit to perform improperly.
Avoid locating the unit in damp areas.
Plug the beverage center into a dedicated (for this appliance only), properly installed and grounded wall
outlet. Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the third (grounding) prong from the power cord.
Any questions concerning power and/or electrical grounding should be directed to a certified electrician or
authorized product service center.

Built-In Installation
The cutout dimension illustrated in figure (A) allows for door swing and access to the pull-out shelves when
installed as a built-in appliance. If installing between frameless cabinets, a ½” wide filler strip or side panel may
be needed on hinge side. The filler strip will act as a spacer between the appliance case and adjacent cabinet door
swing. The width of the opening must include the filter panels.

TEMPERATURE SETTINGS FOR SERVING WINE
1. Although optimal storage temperature is generally regarded to be 53-57°F, different varietals of wine require
different service temperature settings. The recommended temperature ranges for serving different varietals of
wine are listed below. Your beverage center will indicate when you have set the Upper/Lower zones to the
below temperature ranges.
•Red Wines: 60-66°F
•White Wines 45-52°F
•Sparkling Wines 40-45°F
LAYOUT AND STORAGE
Your cabinet was designed to store a maximum number of bottles securely. We recommend that you observe the
tips below to optimize loading.
•Remove tape from shelves once unit is stable and ready for storage.
•Disperse the bottles evenly to avoid concentrating weight in one place. Bottles must not touch either the back of
the cabinet or the step at the bottom.
•Make sure that the bottles are not all grouped together either at the top or bottom of the cabinet.
•Only pull out one rolling shelf at a time. Never attempt to pull more than one.
•Maximum weight capacity per shelf is 55 lbs.
•You can increase your beverage center’s storage capacity by removing shelves and stacking bottles on top of
one another. Do not stack more than 3 rows of bottles per shelf.

REMOVING THE ROLLING SHELF
To remove a rolling shelf:
1. Remove all bottles.
2. Pull the shelf out as far as it will go.
3. Push the left side lever upwards while pushing the right side lever downwards (as illustrated below).
4. Remove the shelf.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Cleaning Your Beverage center.
Turn off the power, unplug the appliance, and remove all items including all shelves.
Wash the inside surfaces with a solution of warm water and baking soda (approximately 2 tablespoons of baking
soda for each quart of water.)
Wash the shelves with a mild detergent solution.
Wring excess water out of the sponge or cloth when cleaning area of the controls, or any electrical parts.
Wash the outside of the cabinet with warm water and mild liquid detergent. Rinse well and wipe dry with a clean soft
cloth.
Vacuum the front grill and back of the unit twice yearly. Make sure the power is off before cleaning.
It is recommended to clean the unit completely inside and out once a year to maximize the longevity of the beverage
center.
Power Loss
Power failures that are corrected within a few hours should not affect the temperature of your appliance if you
minimize the number of times the door is opened. If the power is going to be off for a longer period of time, you need
to take other measures to protect your contents.
If the unit is unplugged, loses power, or is turned off, you must wait 3 to 5 minutes before restarting. Attempting to
restart the beverage center before this time has elapsed may prevent the beverage center from starting.
Absence/Vacation
Short vacations: You may leave the beverage center powered on and unattended for absences of less than three
(3) weeks.
Long vacations: If the appliance will not be used for more than three weeks, remove all items and turn off the
appliance. Clean and dry the interior thoroughly. To prevent mold growth, leave the door open slightly, blocking it
open if necessary.
6

Moving Your Beverage center
Remove all items.
Securely tape down all loose items (shelves) inside your appliance.
Turn the adjustable leg up to the base to avoid damage.
Tape the door shut.
Be sure the appliance stays secure in the upright position during transportation. Also protect the outside of the
appliance with a blanket or similar item.
Energy saving Tip
The beverage center should be located in the coolest area of the room, away from heat producing appliances, and
away from direct sunlight.
