CARE AND MAINTENANCE

DEFROST

Any ice build-up on the inner back wall during compressor operation will be automatically defrosted in a compressor off cycle. When defrosting is in process, only the circulation fans for both zones run. Defrost water will drain into the drip pan (on the compressor), and the water will be evaporated by the compressor.

CLEANING YOUR WINE COOLER

Turn off the power, unplug the appliance, 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.

Wash the shelves with a mild detergent solution.

Wring excess water out of the sponge or cloth when cleaning area of the controls, or any electrical parts.

Wash the outside cabinet with warm water and mild liquid detergent. Rinse well and wipe dry with a clean soft cloth.

Do not use steel wool or steel brush on the stainless steel. These will contaminate the stainless steel with steel particles and rusting may occur.

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.

MOVING YOUR WINE COOLER

Remove all items (bottles).

Securely tape down all loose items (shelves) inside your appliance. Turn the adjustable leg up to the base to avoid damage.

Tape the door shut.

Be sure the appliance stays secure in the upright position during transportation. Also protect outside of appliance with a blanket, or similar item.

ENERGY SAVING TIPS

The Wine Cooler should be located in the coolest area of the room, away from heat producing appliances, and out of the direct sunlight.
