WINE RACKS WITH WOOD TRIM

Your Electrolux wine cooler is equipped with a natural wood trim on the wine racks for appearance and durability. The wood trim has been coated at the factory with a clear vinyl sealer, which will adequately protect the wood in normal usage.

!CAUTION

To prevent permanent damage to the inner liner of your wine cooler , the wine rack wood trim MUST be removed from the unit for staining and/or finishing. Allow stain/ finish to dry thoroughly (at least 24 hours per coat) in accordance with the stain/finish manufacturer’s instructions prior to re-installing the wood trim inside the cabinet of the wine cooler . Failure to do so may cause the inner liner of the unit to have a permanent odor, which is not covered by the warranty.

You have 3 options regarding the wood trim on the wine racks.

(1)You can leave as is, (2) add a final finish coat or (3) you may stain the wood

trim. The final finish coat was not applied at the factory so that the wood trim could be stained. YOU CANNOT STAIN THE WOOD TRIM ONCE YOU APPLY THE FINAL FINISH. Review the following guidelines when staining and or sealing the wood to ensure proper adhesion and durability of the finish.

To add a final finish coat:

1Remove five racks with wood trim from unit, see RACK REMOVAL/ INSTALLATION.

2Remove screws securing wood trim to racks.

3Lightly scruff sand the molding with 280 grit 3M Tri-M-Ite® sand-paper.

4Remove sanding dust with a clean, dry cloth.

5Apply a thin coat of a clear protective finish; the factory-applied seal is compatible with virtually all finishes. A low odor, water clean up, quick drying finish such as Minwax Polycrylic® is recommended. Follow container label for directions.

6Lightly sand and reapply if desired.
