Cleaning the beverage cooler
•Before cleaning, turn the temperature control to OFF, unplug the beverage cooler and remove the bottles.
•Clean your beverage cooler once every two months.
Inside: Wash inside surfaces of the beverage cooler with a solution of two tablespoons of baking soda in one quart (1.136 liters) warm water. Rinse and dry. Wring excess water out of the sponge or cloth when cleaning in the area of the controls, or any electrical parts.
Wash the removable parts with the baking soda solution mentioned above, or mild detergent and warm water. Rinse and dry. Never use metallic scouring pads, brushes, abrasive cleaners, or alkaline solutions on any surface. Do not wash removable parts in a dishwasher.
Outside: Wash the cabinet with warm water and mild liquid detergent. Rinse well and wipe dry with a clean soft cloth.
Care of plastic parts
•Be sure and protect the door gasket. It should be kept clean at all times.
•If the plastic parts in the beverage cooler remain contaminated by oil (animal or vegetable) for a long period of time, they will age and crack easily. Please clean them on a regular basis.
Vacation and Moving Tips
Vacations:
If the beverage cooler will not be used for several months:
•Remove all wine bottles and unplug the power cord.
•Clean and dry the interior thoroughly.
•Leave the wine cooler door open slightly, blocking it open if necessary, to prevent odor and mold growth.
Moving: When moving the beverage cooler, follow these guidelines to prevent damage:
•Disconnect the power cord plug from the wall outlet.
•Remove wine bottles and clean the beverage cooler.
•Secure all loose items by taping them securely in place to prevent damage.
•In a moving vehicle, secure the beverage cooler in an upright position to prevent movement. Also, protect the outside of the beverage cooler with a blanket or similar item.
WARNING
If leaving the beverage cooler door open while on vacation, make certain that children cannot climb inside and become entrapped.
