Cleaning the Outside

Safety

IMPORTANT: Unplug the beverage center/wine chiller before cleaning.

Keep the outside clean. The cabinet

can be washed with mild soap and water. Clean with a damp cloth. Never use abrasive scouring powders.

Use a glass cleaner or mild soap and water and a soft cloth to clean the glass door. Do not use any abrasive powders.

Do not wipe the beverage center/wine chiller with a soiled dishcloth or towel. These may leave a residue that can erode the paint. Do not use scouring pads, powdered cleaners, bleach or cleaners containing bleach because these products can scratch and weaken the paint finish.

Protect the paint finish. The finish

on the outside of the beverage center/ wine chiller is a high-quality, baked-on paint finish. With proper care, it will stay new-looking and rust-free for years. Apply a coat of kitchen/appliance wax when the wine chiller is new, and then at least twice a year.

Cleaning the Inside

IMPORTANT: Unplug the beverage center/wine chiller before cleaning.

To clean the inner liner and racks, use

a warm water and baking soda solution— about one tablespoon (15 ml) of baking soda to a quart (1 liter) of water. This both cleans and neutralizes odors. Clean with a damp cloth.

The vinyl door gasket may be cleaned with mild soap and water or a baking soda solution.

Do not use detergents, scouring powders, spray cleaners or other harsh chemicals to clean the interior.

To avoid water stains on the wood shelves, clean up and dry any liquid spills immediately.

Wipe the control panel with a damp cloth. Dry thoroughly. Do not use cleaning sprays, large amounts of soap and water, abrasives or sharp objects on the panel— they can damage it. Some paper towels can also scratch the control panel.

Defrosting

Defrost whenever frost on the inside surfaces of the storage area becomes 1/8 ″ (3 mm) thick. Never use a heater

of any kind, scraper or sharp instrument to remove frost as it may damage

the beverage center/wine chiller.

To defrost, unplug the beverage center/ wine chiller. Remove the contents and wipe inside surfaces and racks with a clean towel. If frost does not come off easily, allow the frost to melt somewhat and wipe off.

After defrosting, make sure inside surfaces are dry; then return the contents to the beverage center/wine chiller and set the temperature control to the desired setting.

NOTE: The drain pan above the compressor may be full following defrost. Check to make sure no water spills when moving the unit.
