Operating Your Wine Cellar
IMPORTANT: Do not plug in the wine cellar for at least 24 hours after unit is set in place. Failure to do so may result in the unit working improperly.
Two-Compartment Design
The FWC100 has two separate compartments, each having a capacity of 50 bottles. Each compartment has its own door and separate control panels. This design feature enables you to operate one or both compartments and also enables you to set a different temperature for each compartment. Each control panel also displays the current temperature and allows you to turn the interior lights on and off independently of each other. The operating instructions below apply to both compartments and must be implemented separately.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Turning on the Unit
Choose one of the compartments and press the ON/OFF button, located on the left hand side of the control panel.
If you want to use the Automatic Temperature (default) setting, do nothing further. The unit will automatically set the temperature in the compartment at 55 degrees Fahrenheit (13 degrees Celsius). If you want to set another temperature, see below.
Temperature Setting
Wine Storage Temperatures: While wines store best at temperatures around
To adjust the temperature, press the SET button, then use the UP/ DOWN keys to navigate to the preferred temperature. For example, if you are storing red wine, you may want to set a temperature of 61 degrees Fahrenheit.
When the correct temperature appears in the DISPLAY Window of the Control Panel, press SET to confirm. Remember that each compartment has separate controls so you will need to set the temperature in both compartments separately.
Please note: Cold air falls and warmer air rises, and there will be some temperature variation from the bottom to the top of the unit. The temperature gauge is located near the the top of the unit and records the temperature on the top of the unit. The temperature at the bottom of the unit will always be slightly colder.
