LIQUID MEASURING THERMOSTAT SYSTEM

All WhisperKOOL units come equipped with our Pre- cision Digital Technology (PDT/PDT JR) liquid tem- perature measuring thermostat system. This system incorporates the following advantages:

1.Self-Calibrating Probe: The probe contains a sensor chip, which actually communicates back and forth to the thermostat. This results in a con- sistent temperature setting and accuracy. Do not remove the tip from the probe!

2.Built in Defrost Cycle: The unit is designed to shut off for five minutes every ninety minutes in order to prevent frost build up. This allows the cooling unit to continue to cool effectively in demanding environments. A count down timer is observed by depressing the center button on the thermo- stat. (PDT upgrade version only)

3.Heavy-duty Circuitry: The circuitry within this new unit has been upgraded to resist power surges, which play havoc on electrical compo- nents. This improvement will ensure years of trouble-free use. However, for high reliability, we still recommend that the customer install a surge protector for the unit itself.

4.Fahrenheit and Celsius Readout (PDT upgrade version only): The thermostat has the ability to produce the readout in both Fahrenheit and Cel- sius for overseas customers. The readout can be changed by depressing both the center and right buttons at the same time.

Room-temperature

Water

Measuring liquid temperature has a few unique advantages:

1.Wine temperature is kept in a very precise con- trolled environment. This assures a consistent temperature.

2.By measuring the liquid temperature rather than air, the unit will operate 75- 80% of the time. See page 2.

To Use the thermostat:

1.Locate an empty wine bottle.

2.Fill 3/4 full with room temperature tap water.

3.Place bottle probe securely into bottle.

4.Place bottle with probe in a central location of your wine cellar.

Avoid pulling too much on the probe cord. It may become disconnected resulting in non operation of the unit.

Note: Thermostat can be set between 50°F and 76°F.

Remember: The WhisperKOOL System is based on the temperature of the wine. Do not be misled by thermostats reading air temperature. The air tem- perature in the cellar will be cooler than the liquid temperature of the wine while it is coming to opti- mum balanced temperature.

Fill an empty bottle with room-temperature

water; then insert the probe.
