To Remove and Replace the Wine Racks

Wood Trim

IMPORTANT: To prevent permanent damage to the inner liner of your wine cellar, the wine rack wood trim must be removed from the unit for staining or finishing. Allow the stain or finish to dry thoroughly for a minimum of 24 hours or in accordance with the manufacturers directions whichever is longer, prior to reinstalling the racks. Failure to do so may cause the inner liner to have a permanent odor which is not covered under the warranty.

Your wine cellar has a natural wood trim on the wine racks. The wood trim is coated with a clear vinyl sealer that will adequately protect the wood in normal usage. You may choose to stain the wood trim or to apply a clear finish coat. If you opt to stain or coat the wood trim, remove the racks from the wine cellar before staining. Allow the racks to dry for a minimum of 24 hours or in accordance with the manufacturers directions, whichever is longer, before returning them to the wine cellar.
