■To keep your stainless steel wine cellar looking like new and to remove minor scuffs or marks, it is suggested that you use the manufacturer’s approved Stainless Steel Cleaner & Polish. To order the cleaner, see the “Accessories” section.

IMPORTANT: This cleaner is for stainless steel parts only!

■Do not allow the Stainless Steel Cleaner & Polish to come into contact with any plastic parts such as the trim pieces or door gaskets. If accidental contact does occur, clean plastic part with a sponge and mild detergent in warm water. Dry thoroughly with a soft cloth.

5.Replace the racks.

6.Clean the condenser coils regularly. They are located behind the base grille. Coils may need to be cleaned as often as every other month. This may help save energy.

■Remove the base grille. See “Base Grille.”

■Use a vacuum cleaner with an extended attachment to clean the condenser coils when they are dusty or dirty.

■Replace the base grille.

7.Plug in wine cellar or reconnect power.

Vacation and MovingCare

Vacations

If you choose to turn the wine cellar off before you leave, follow these steps.

1.Remove all wine bottles from the wine cellar.

2.Unplug the wine cellar.

3.Clean the wine cellar. See “Cleaning.”

4.Tape a rubber or wood block to the top of the door to prop it open far enough for air to get in. This stops odor and mold from building up.

Moving

When you are moving your wine cellar to a new home, follow these steps to prepare it for the move.

1.Remove all wine bottles from the wine cellar.

2.Unplug the wine cellar.

3.Clean, wipe, and dry it thoroughly.

4.Take out all removable parts, wrap them well, and tape them together so they don’t shift and rattle during the move.

5.Tape the doors shut and tape the power cord to the wine cellar.

When you get to your new home, put everything back and refer to the “Installation Instructions” section for preparation instructions.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Try the solutions suggested here first in order to avoid the cost of an unnecessary service call.

Your wine cellar will not operate

■Is the power supply cord unplugged? Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.

■Has a household fuse blown, or has a circuit breaker tripped? Replace the fuse or reset the circuit.

■Is the Wine Cellar Control turned to the OFF position? See “Using the Control.”

The lights do not work

■Is the power supply cord unplugged? Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.

■Is a light bulb loose in the socket? Unplug wine cellar or disconnect power. Gently remove the bulb and reinsert. Plug in wine cellar or reconnect power.

■Has a light bulb burned out? Replace with an appliance bulb of the same wattage, size, and shape. See “Changing the Light Bulb.”

There is water in the defrost drain pan

■Is the wine cellar defrosting? The water will evaporate. It is normal for water to drip into the defrost pan.

■Is it more humid than normal? Expect that the water in the defrost pan will take longer to evaporate. This is normal when it is hot or humid.

The motor seems to run too much

■Is the temperature outside hotter than normal? Expect the motor to run longer under warm conditions. At normal temperatures, expect your motor to run about 40% to 80% of the time. Under warmer conditions, expect it to run even more of the time.
