Power Failure

Most power failures are corrected within a few hours and 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 the proper steps to protect your contents.

Vacation Time

Short vacations: Leave the Wine Chiller operating during vacations of less than three weeks.

Long vacations: If the appliance will not be used for several months, remove all items and unplug the power cord. Clean and dry the interior thoroughly. To prevent odor and mold growth, leave the door open slightly: blocking it open if necessary.

Moving Your Wine Chiller

 Remove all bottles.

 Securely tape down all loose items (shelves) inside your appliance.  Tape the door shut.

 Protect outside of appliance with a blanket, or similar item.

Energy Saving Tips

The Wine Chiller should be located in the coolest area of the room, away from heat producing appliances, and out of the direct sunlight.

One characteristic of thermoelectric units is the length of time it requires to recover from having the door opened and shut frequently. It may be necessary to wait longer for the temperature to return to its former level once the door has been opened for too long. This is normal for the type of unit.

Thermoelectric technology costs just pennies to operate. It is environmentally friendly due to the lack of CFC’s.
