Grounding Method: This product is factory equipped with a power supply cord that has a three- pronged grounded plug. It must be plugged into a mating grounding type receptacle in accordance with the National Electrical Code and applicable local codes and ordinances (see figure 1). If the circuit does not have a grounding type receptacle, it is the responsibility and obligation of the customer to exchange the existing receptacle in accordance with the National Electrical Code and applicable local codes and ordinances. The third ground prong should not, under any circumstances, be cut or removed. All U.L. listed refrigerated products are equipped with this type of plug.
How to Operate Your Refrigerated Beverage Center
Set the Control: The total available temperature range of the unit is from 39°F to the high sixties, depending on the thermostat setting and location of the cabinet. The middle range on the control is from the
the cabinet. The tempera-
ture can be lowered or raised by turning the control clockwise or counterclock- wise, respectively. As with
any refrigeration product,
there is a slight temperature variance at different loca- tions within the cabinet. For example, the coolest area will be in the rear of the middle of the cabinet. Commodities on the top shelf will be 3° to 8° warmer. This section and the bottom cabinet step section are the warmest areas. Items in the front of the middle shelves will be 1° to 4° warmer than the rear of the shelves. Position your wine inventory accordingly on your wine shelf.
The glass shelves and fixed position wire rack are for general beverage storage, such as beer and soft drinks. Opened wine bottles and tall beverage con- tainers may be stored on the glass shelf closest to the cabinet top. Just lift the hinged section of the fixed position upper wire rack to provide clearance for the bottles and/or containers to stand upright.
Do not pull out upper glass shelf when tall bottles are placed upright through the opening in the hinged wire shelf. Doing so may cause the tall, upright bottles to fall backwards.
To start your appliance, use a screwdriver to turn the control clockwise to the middle thermostat setting (see figure 2). Once the beverage center is loaded, allow at least 48 hours for the unit to stabilize before making any adjustments to the initial setting.

Note: Wine rack can be located at the middle or bottom part of the cabinet interior. For red wines, place wine shelf at bottom shelf position in the cabinet. Then put a glass shelf in the next higher position. For white and sparkling wines, put the wine shelf on the middle shelf position in the cab- inet. Place the remaining shelves as desired. Also, there is a fixed, wooden, bottle cradle in the bottom, step section of the cabinet. Six bottles of wine may be stored there.
Loading Tips and
Suggestions for Wine Rack
The wooden, bottom bottle cradle may be removed for storing "jug" wines. Just remove the two screws that secure the cradle to the cabinet floor.
You can store magnum bottles and other large bottles on any of the shelves (except for the top shelf) by removing the shelf directly above them or placing the shelf at a position allowing for proper clearance.
Commodities on the top rack directly under the light will be exposed to a slightly higher temperature when the light is on. REMEMBER TO TURN OFF THE LIGHT WHEN IT IS NO LONGER NEEDED.
Keep wines that you plan to use for everyday drinking and entertaining on the front half of the racks where labels are completely visible. Place wines for aging or longer term storing in rear.
