IMPORTANT GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
and use of extension cords
The Wine Chiller must be grounded. In the
event of an electrical short circuit,
grounding reduces the risk of electric shock
by providing an escape wire for the electric
current. This appliance is equipped with a
cord having a grounding wire with a
grounding plug. The plug must be plugged
into an outlet that is properly installed and
grounded. If the outlet is a standard 2-
prong wall outlet, it is your personal
responsibility and obligation to have it
replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong
wall outlet. Do not under any
circumstances cut or remove the third
(ground) prong from the power cord.
WARNING-Improper use of grounding
can result in a risk of electric shock.
Consult a qualified electrician or serviceman
if the grounding instructions are not
completely understood, or if doubt exists as
to whether the appliance is properly
grounded and either:
1.
If it is necessary to use an extension
cord, use only a 3-wire extension
cord that has a 3-prong grounding
plug, and a 3-slot receptacle that will
accept the plug on the appliance. The
marked electrical rating of the
extension cord shall be equal to or
greater than the rating of the
appliance, or
2.
If the power supply cord is too short,
have a qualified electrician or
serviceman install an outlet near the
appliance.

UNPACKING
Remove all packing materials and accessories. Examine the chiller for any damage such as dents or
broken door. Do not install if chiller is damaged.

PLACING WINE IN THE CHILLER
Allow the wine chiller to cool for up to 1 – 2 hours before loading. After three hours of
cooling the chiller will reach an approximate temperature of 55°F (13°C) degrees.
When placing both white and red wine into the chiller, please keep in mind that the
bottom of the chiller is the coolest area and the top of the chiller is the warmest area.
There is a sliding shelf/basket in the bottom of the chiller. This can be used for wine
bottles or other beverages, such as soda/beer cans or juice containers.

CARE AND CLEANING
TO CLEAN THE INSIDE AND THE EXTERIOR OF THE WINE
CHILLER
Always unplug the chiller before cleaning. Do not use a hard brush or sponge. Use light soapy
water with a cloth. When cleaning the inside DO NOT use soap or any detergent products.
Use only a dry, soft cloth or towel.
DEFROSTING THE WINE CHILLER
If frost builds up in and around the chiller, that means there is too much humidity near the
unit. Unplug the chiller and once the frost melts, carefully wipe down the outside or inside of
the chiller.
NOTE: DO NOT USE A HEATER OR A SHARP UTENSIL TO REMOVE THE FROST.
IN THE EVENT OF A POWER FAILURE
In the event of a power failure, do not open the wine chiller door frequently. A slight and
gradual increase in temperature should have no effect on the wine.
PREPARING THE WINE CHILLER FOR VACATION
For long vacations or absences, remove all bottles from the wine chiller and unplug the power
supply. Move the thermostat to the lowest temperature setting before cleaning the interior
and leave the door open.
TRANSPORTING THE WINE CHILLER
For transporting the wine chiller, secure all loose items, such as shelves by taping them
securely in place to prevent damage.
NOTE: BE SURE THE WINE CHILLER STAYS IN AN UPRIGHT POSITION DURING
TRANSPORTING.
