INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

BEFORE USING YOUR APPLIANCE

Remove the exterior and interior packing.

Before connecting the appliance to the power source, let it stand upright for approximately 4 hours. This will reduce the possibility of a malfunction in the cooling system from handling during transportation.

Clean the interior surface with lukewarm water using a soft cloth.

Install the handle on the door.

INSTALLATION OF YOUR APPLIANCE

The appliance is designed for built-in, recessed or free standing installation.

WARNING: Do not store or install the appliance outdoors.

CAUTION: This appliance is designed for storing and cooling wines. Do not store perishable food, medicine or other medical products.

Place your appliance on a hard and level floor that is strong enough to support it when it is fully loaded.

We do not recommend installing the appliance on carpet.

To level your appliance, adjust the leveling legs at the bottom of the appliance if needed.

For free standing installation, 5 inches (127mm) of space between the back and sides of the appliance are suggested, which allows the proper air circulation to cool the compressor and condenser. Even for built-in in- stallation, it is a must to keep a ¼” (6.35mm) space on each side and at the top. And the air vent at the front of the appliance must never be covered or blocked in any way.

NOTE: Do NOT install the appliance near an oven or other heating source. Direct sunlight may affect the acrylic coating and heat sources may increase electrical consumption. For best performance, do not install the appliance behind a cabinet door or block the base grille.

Avoid locating the appliance in area that may be exposed to excessive moisture.

Plug in the appliance into an exclusive, grounded wall power outlet. Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord. Any questions concerning power and/or grounding should be directed toward a qualified electrician or an authorized service center.
