When you store mostly red wines, the temperature which you control by pushing the above two buttons need to be set at between 15º - 19ºC (58º - 64ºF).
When you store mostly white wines, the temperature needs to be set at between 9º - 14ºC (48º - 57ºF).
When you store mostly sparkling wines, the temperature needs to be set at between 5º - 9ºC (40º - 47ºF).
NOTE:
∙When you use the wine chiller for the first time or restart the wine chiller after having been shut off for a long time, there could be a few degrees variance between the temperature you select and the one indicated on the LED readout. This is normal and it is due to the length of the activation time. Once the wine chiller is running for a few hours everything will be back to normal.
Storage Capacity
NOTE: You can place 18 standard bottles in this wine chiller.
Many bottles may differ in size and dimensions. As such the actual number of bottles you may be able to store may vary. Bottle capacities are approximate maximums when storing traditional Bordeaux 750ml bottles and include bulk storage.
Interior Light
You can turn the interior light ON or OFF by pushing the button marked with the “bulb” symbol . The light will be turned off automatically if it remains ON for 10 minutes. You have to push the button marked with the “bulb” symbol again and the light will turn back on.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Cleaning Your Wine Chiller
∙UNPLUG the Wine Chiller, and remove all items including shelves.
∙Wash the inside surfaces with a warm water and baking soda solution. The solution should be about 2 tablespoons of baking soda to a quart of water.

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.
