Moving
When you are moving your beverage center to a new home, follow these steps to prepare it for the move.
1.Remove all wine bottles from the beverage center.
2.Unplug the beverage center.
3.Clean, wipe, and dry it thoroughly.
4.Take out all removable parts, wrap them well, and tape them together so they don’t shift and rattle during the move.
5.Tape the doors shut and tape the power cord to the beverage center.
When you get to your new home, put everything back and refer to the “Installation Instructions” section for preparation instructions.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Try the solutions suggested here first in order to avoid the cost of an unnecessary service call.
Your beverage center will not operate
WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Do not remove ground prong.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, fire, or electrical shock.
■Is the power supply cord unplugged? Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
The motor seems to run too much
■Is the temperature outside hotter than normal? Expect the motor to run longer under warm conditions. At normal temperatures, expect your motor to run about 40% to 80% of the time. Under warmer conditions, expect it to run even more of the time.
■Is the door opened often? Expect the motor to run longer when this occurs. In order to conserve energy, try to get everything you need out of the beverage center at once, keep wine bottles positioned label side up so that they are easy to find, and close the door as soon as the wine is removed.
■Is the control set correctly for the surrounding conditions? See “Using the Control.”
■Is the door closed completely? Push the door firmly shut. If it will not shut all the way, see “The door will not close completely” later in this section.
■Are the condenser coils dirty? This prevents air transfer and makes the motor work harder. Clean the condenser coils. See “Cleaning.”
Temperature is too warm
■Has a household fuse blown, or has a circuit breaker tripped? Replace the fuse or reset the circuit.
■Is the Beverage Center Control turned to the OFF position? See “Using the Control.”
The lights do not work
■Is a light bulb loose in the socket? Unplug beverage center or disconnect power. Gently remove the bulb and reinsert. Plug in beverage center or reconnect power.
■Has a light bulb burned out? Replace with an appliance bulb of the same wattage, size, and shape. See “Changing the Light Bulb.”
There is water in the defrost drain pan
■Is the beverage center defrosting? The water will evaporate. It is normal for water to drip into the defrost pan.
■Is it more humid than normal? Expect that the water in the defrost pan will take longer to evaporate. This is normal when it is hot or humid.
■Is the door opened often? Be aware that the beverage center will warm when this occurs. In order to keep the beverage center cool, try to get everything you need out of the beverage center at once, keep wine bottles positioned label side up so that they are easy to find, and close the door as soon as the wine is removed.
■Is the control set correctly for the surrounding conditions? See “Using the Control.”
■Is the base grille blocked? For best performance, do not install the beverage center behind a cabinet door or block the base grille.
There is interior moisture buildup
■Is the door opened often? To avoid humidity buildup, try to get everything you need out of the beverage center at once, keep wine bottles positioned label side up so that they are easy to find, and close the door as soon as the wine is removed. When the door is opened, humidity from the room air enters the beverage center. The more often the door is opened, the faster humidity builds up, especially when the room itself is very humid.
■Is it humid? It is normal for moisture to build up inside the beverage center when the air is humid.
■Is the control set correctly for the surrounding conditions? See “Using the Control.”
