ELECTRONIC CONTROL S Y S T E M
The Electronic Control System of your
Sub-Zero Wine Storage unit gives you the
most accurate temperature control for your
peace of mind. You can be assured your wine
is stored at the temperature you have selected,
whether it is long-term aging or staging wine
for consumption that evening.
T E M P E R AT U R E C O N T RO L
With all Wine Storage models you have the
capability of setting two distinct temperatures
within the two zones of your Wine Storage
unit. Your model has been thoroughly tested
and inspected before it was shipped from the
factory. The temperature has been preset at
45˚F (7˚C) in the top zone and 55˚F (13˚C) in the
bottom zone.
A microprocessor accurately samples the
temperature every second in each zone to be
sure the temperatures stay within one degree
of your preset temperatures. It also monitors
the unit’s operation and will let you know if
service may be necessary.
There are two sets of WARMER and COLDER
key pads on the control panel, one for each of
the two separate temperature zones. An arrow
next to the temperature in the LED display, will
indicate which temperature corresponds with
each zone. Refer to the illustration below.
The COLDER key pad on the control panel
allows you to decrease the temperature in the
corresponding zone by one degree each time
you depress the key pad. Remember that the
temperature range in each zone is 38˚F (3˚C) to
65˚F (18˚C) and you can set two different
temperatures—one for each zone.
Similar to the COLDER key pad, you can raise
the temperature in the corresponding zone by
one degree each time you depress the
WARMER key pad on the control panel.

Electronic control system functions, such as
digital temperatures and service indicators, are
shown in the LED display, located on the
control panel. The temperatures of each zone
will be visible through the glass door of your
Wine Storage unit. If you are using your unit
frequently, the numbers may fluctuate.
If the microprocessor detects temperature
fluctuations or a faulty component, you will
hear an audible beep and a bell symbol will
flash in the LED display on the control panel.
Also, if the unit is tied in with your home
security, it will alert this system. You can
deactivate the alarm feature and the audible
sound by depressing the BELL symbol key
pad. If the alarm is deactivated, the bell will
not be visible in the LED display.
U N I T O N / O F F
The UNIT ON/OFF key pad on the control
panel will shut off all electrical power to the
Wine Storage unit for cleaning or service.
S A B B AT H M O D E ( S TA R - K )
All Wine Storage units feature the Sabbath
Mode. This is for certain religious observances
where the lights need to be turned off.
L I G H T S O N / O F F
To initiate Sabbath Mode, while the unit is on
press the UNIT ON/OFF key pad so that OFF
is visible in the LED display on the control
panel. Your unit will be off.
All Wine Storage units have the capability of
having the lights on independently of the
door’s opening and closing. This will allow you
to display your collection of wine for special
occasions.
Then press and hold the UNIT ON/OFF key
pad for 10 seconds. This will turn the unit back
on and will disable the lights. To return the
unit to normal lighting, press and release the
UNIT ON/OFF key pad.
To have the lights remain on independently of
the door’s opening and closing, press the
LIGHTS ON/OFF key pad. Press the key pad
again to have the lights to go off when the
door is closed.
If you have questions about Star-K compliance,
You should not leave the lights on
V I S U A L S E RV I C E D I S P L AY
overnight or for extremely long periods of
time. The heat from the lights will cause
the unit to work unnecessarily hard.
The electronic control system monitors
temperatures as well as the the unit’s opera-
tion. If there is a temperature or operation
problem, you will notice the word SERVICE
illuminated in the LED display on the control
panel. Before calling for service, please check
to see if your condenser area needs cleaning.

In all instances, the temperature settings are
your individual preference, and with the Wine
Storage model you purchased, you can be
confident the unit will maintain those tempera-
tures. A chart with suggested storing and
serving temperatures can be found on page 19.
Model 427R: The refrigerated drawers have
their own microprocessor and control panel
located in the top drawer. The preset tempera-
ture is 38˚F (3˚C) from the factory, but you have
the option of adjusting the temperature within
the range of 34˚F (1˚C) to 45˚F (7˚C). The LCD
display on the control panel displays the actual
temperature of both drawers in your unit.
While each temperature zone of your Wine
Storage unit has a range of 38˚F (3˚C) to 65˚F
(18˚C), you can set the temperatures at the
exact temperature you think best—whether it’s
for consumption or for duplicating the temper-
atures of cellars for long-term storage.
The COLDER key pad on the control panel
allows you to decrease the temperature of the
drawers by one degree each time you depress
the key pad. You can raise the temperature in
the drawers by one degree each time you
depress the WARMER key pad on the control
panel.

G L A S S D O O R C L E A N I N G
Classic and platinum stainless steel
finishes: To clean the exterior of the classic
and platinum stainless steel finishes, use a
soft, nonabrasive stainless steel cleaner like
Signature Polish and apply with a soft 100%
lint-free cloth.
The glass door panel can be cleaned using any
standard glass cleaner available on the market
today.

Carbon stainless steel finish: Carbon
stainless steel can be cleaned with mild soap
and water.
To clean interior surfaces and removable parts,
wash with a mild solution of soap and luke-
warm water with a little baking soda. Do not
use vinegar. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Avoid
getting water on lights, control panel and the
solid cherry wood facing on the shelves.
Signature Polish
is available from
Signature Limited
Laboratory,
P. O. Box 13436,
Dayton, Ohio
45413-0436, or
877-376-5474
(toll free).
The carbon stainless steel finish uses the
interest of brushed steel to bring out the
maximum metallic luster of its charcoal
background. Different light types and source
locations can result in variations in shading on
different components and areas of large appli-
ances. These variations are normal with the
carbon finish and add to the unique character
of colored stainless steel.
Do not use abrasive cleaners or cloths on any
of the interior or exterior surfaces, including
the glass door panel.
Before cleaning the unit, shut the electric-
ity off at the control panel.
To bring out the natural luster of all three
finishes, lightly wipe the surface with a water-
dampened microfiber cloth followed by a dry
polishing chamois. All work should follow the
grain direction of the finish. Better results are
obtained by keeping the cloth in continuous
contact with the stainless steel.
Under no circumstances should you use
a metallic or highly abrasive cleaner or
cloth, as this will remove the carbon
finish or scratch the classic or platinum
finishes.

K E E P I N G WINE AT ITS BEST
STORING A N D SERVING W I N E
There is a right way to store and serve wine.
And there is a wrong way. The Sub-Zero Wine
Storage equipment is committed to the right
way. Wine enthusiasts know that wine, opti-
mally, likes to be stored for long periods of
time in caves that are vibration free, dark,
damp and kept at a constant 55˚F (13˚C).
However, how many of us have these situa-
tions available?
You can devote the entire Wine Storage unit to
long-term storage and have the temperature
set to 55˚F (13˚C) in both zones—the ideal
temperature for long-term storage or aging.
If, however, you want to devote only a small
portion of the unit to that feature, you can
adjust the temperature in the smaller zone to
long-term storage and adjust the other temper-
ature zone to accommodate the wine you will
be enjoying soon.
When you think about wine, think about
preserving fruit and the fact that you must
refrigerate it at the proper temperature before
it spoils. After all, wine is the juice of grapes in
its simplest interpretation.
The temperature in this zone can be anything
you choose. Sure, there are ideal temperatures
for serving wine, but it is very subjective, with
everyone’s palate reacting differently to differ-
ent temperatures.
Wine needs to be selected and cared for
properly. The wine aficionado knows that
proper storage will ensure the wine is served
at the best conditions.
The chart on the following page offers some
universally accepted storing and serving
temperatures for the most common wines
consumed today.
You have taken the extra step to ensure that
your wine is kept in the best possible environ-
ment by purchasing your Sub-Zero Wine
Storage unit. Now how you use the unit is up
to you.
Enjoy the wine and your Sub-Zero Wine
Storage unit. And thank you for your trust in
Sub-Zero.

TROUBLESHOOTING G U I D E
F R E Q U E N T LY A S K E D QUESTIONS
T E M P E R AT U R E
N O I S E
Q: Why do I hear my unit running frequently?
IMPORTANT NOTE: Unless the Wine Storage
unit is being serviced, make sure the power for
your unit is on.
A: It is normal to hear the operation of fans
and motors. Sounds will be accentuated
based on the placement of the unit and
overall room design.
Q: How do I adjust the temperatures?
A: To adjust temperatures, see Temperature
Control on page 8. For Model 427R, also
refer to page 10.
Q: What are the suggested temperature
settings?
A: Temperature settings are your individual
preference. While each temperature zone
of your Wine Storage unit has a range of
38˚F (3˚C) to 65˚F (18˚C), you can set the
temperatures you think best. A chart with
suggested storing and serving temperatures
can be found on page 19.
Q: Condensation is forming on the inside and
outside of my unit.
A: In climates with higher humidity, condensa-
tion will form and is considered normal.
Leaving the door open for a long period of
time may also contribute to condensation
forming on the inside of your unit.
Q: My unit isn’t cooling properly.
A: Clean the condenser area as outlined on
page 16.
