INSTALLING YOUR WINE CELLAR  
UNPACKING YOUR WINE CELLAR  
1. Remove all packaging material. This includes the foam base and all adhesive tape holding the wine  
cellar accessories inside and outside.  
2. Inspect and remove any remains of packing, tape or printed materials before powering on the wine  
cellar.  
LEVELING YOUR WINE CELLAR  
Your wine cellar has four leveling legs which are located in the front and rear corners of your wine  
cellar. After properly placing your wine cellar in its final position, you can level your wine cellar.  
• Leveling legs can be adjusted by turning them clockwise to raise your wine cellar or by turning them  
counterclockwise to lower your wine cellar. The wine cellar door will close easier when the leveling  
legs are extended.  
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENT  
• Make sure there is a suitable power Outlet (115 volts, 15 amps outlet) with proper grounding to  
power the wine cellar.  
• Avoid the use of three plug adapters or cutting off the third grounding in order to accommodate a  
two plug outlet. This is a dangerous practice since it provides no effective grounding for the wine  
cellar and may result in shock hazard.  
USE OF EXTENSION CORDS  
• Avoid the use of an extension cord because of potential safety hazards under certain conditions. If it  
is necessary to use an extension cord, use only a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade  
grounding plug and a 3-slot outlet that will accept the plug. The marked rating of the extension cord  
must be equal to or greater than the electrical rating of the appliance.

WINE CELLAR FEATURES AND USE  
INITIAL SETUP  
Your wine cellar has a temperature control knob on the bottom of the unit. There are 7 settings: 1  
being the warmest and 7 being the coolest. You can set the temperature of your wine cellar at any  
setting you desire. The wine cellar will maintain a temperature range between 39˚F and 65˚ F.

SHELVING  
• The shelves are black vinyl coated. They are designed for flexibility and easy cleaning. To  
accommodate different sized bottles the shelves slide out and can be moved up or down into any of  
the tracks molded into the cooler cabinet. Larger bottles or Magnums can be more easily  
accommodated on the bottom of the cooler. You will notice that the shelves are designed so the  
bottles do not line-up directly over one another. The shelves are designed to allow free air  
movement and provides more space.  
INTERIOR LIGHT  
To complement the look of your wine collection, a soft light has been built into the wine cellar. The  
light switch is on the front bottom.  
NORMAL OPERATING SOUNDS YOU MAY HEAR  
• Boiling water, gurgling sounds or slight vibrations that are the result of the refrigerant circulating  
through the cooling coils.  
• The thermostat control will click when it cycles on and off.

WINE CELLAR INSTALLATIONS  
INSTALL LIMITATIONS  
• Do not install your wine cellar in any location not properly insulated or heated e.g. garage etc. Your  
wine cellar was not designed to operate in temperature settings below 55˚ Fahrenheit.  
• Select a suitable location for the wine cellar on a hard even surface away from direct sunlight or  
heat source e.g. radiators, baseboard heaters, cooking appliances etc. Any floor unevenness should  
be corrected with the leveling legs located on the front and rear bottom corners of the wine cellar.  
DIMENSIONS  
• Built-in wine cellars need to be ventilated from the front. This feature allows the unit to be built in an  
enclosed area. The bottom front grille should be clear of all obstructions. This is absolutely  
necessary for the air to circulate and for the unit to operate efficiently. The dimensions for  
installation are as follows. (W x D x H)  
Unit Dimensions: 23-7/8” x 23-15/16” x 34-1/4”  
Built-In Dimensions: 24” x 24” x 35”  
34-1/4”  
23-7/8”  
23-15/16”  
CHOICES  
• As the doors of the built-in wine cellars are reversible, 2 wine cellars could be placed side by side  
with the doors opening from the middle. This would not only allow you more storage space but also  
better placement of your wine collection. The red wines could be separate from the white wines.  
Before installing make sure there is enough space for installation and that both the units are plugged  
into separate power receptacles.

PROPER WINE CELLAR CARE AND CLEANING  
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE  
Warning:  
To avoid electric shock always unplug your wine cellar before cleaing.  
Ignoring this warning may result in death or injury.  
Caution:  
General:  
• Before using cleaning products, always read and follow manufacturer’s  
instructions and warnings to avoid personal injury or product damage.  
• Prepare a cleaning solution of 3-4 tablespoons of baking soda mixed with  
warm water. Use sponge or soft cloth, dampened with the cleaning solution,  
to wipe down your wine cellar.  
• Rinse with clean warm water and dry with a soft cloth.  
• Do not use harsh chemicals, abrasives, ammonia, chlorine bleach,  
concentrated detergents, solvents or metal scouring pads. SOME of these  
chemicals may dissolve, damage and/or discolor your wine cellar.  
Door Gaskets:  
• Clean door gaskets every three months according to general instructions.  
Gaskets must be kept clean and pliable to assure a proper seal.  
• Petroleum jelly applied lightly on the hinge side of gaskets will keep the  
gasket pliable and assure a good seal.  
POWER INTERRUPTIONS  
• Occasionally there may be power interruptions due to thunderstorms or other causes. Remove the  
power cord from AC outlet when a power outage occurs. When power has been restored, replug  
power cord to AC outlet.  
VACATION AND MOVING CARE  
• For long vacations or absences, unplug the wine cellar and clean the wine cellar and door gaskets  
according to "General cleaning" section. Prop doors open, so air can circulate inside. When moving  
always move the wine cellar vertically. Do not move with the unit lying down. Possible damage to  
the sealed system could occur.
