WOOD TRIM ON WINE RACKS

Your U-Line Wine Captain® Model is equipped with a natural wood trim on the wine racks for appearance and durability. The wood trim has been coated at the factory with a clear vinyl sealer, which will adequately protect the wood in normal usage.

!WARNING

To prevent permanent damage to the inner liner of your Wine Captain®, the wine rack wood trim MUST be removed from the unit for staining and/or finishing. Allow stain/finish to dry thoroughly (at least 24 hours per coat) in accordance with the stain/finish manufac- turer’s instructions prior to re-installing the wood trim inside the cabinet of the Wine Captain®. Failure to do so may cause the inner liner of the unit to have a permanent odor, which is not covered by the warranty.

You have 3 options regarding the wood trim on the wine racks.

(1)You can leave as is, (2) add a final finish coat or (3) you may

stain the wood trim. The final finish coat was not applied at the fac- tory so that the wood trim could be stained. YOU CANNOT STAIN

THE WOOD TRIM ONCE YOU APPLY THE FINAL FINISH. Review the following guidelines when staining and or sealing the wood to ensure proper adhesion and durability of the finish.

To add a final finish coat:

1.Remove five racks with wood trim from unit, see RACK REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.

2.Remove screws securing wood trim to racks.

3.Lightly scruff sand the molding with 280 grit 3M™ Tri-M-Ite™ sand-paper.

4.Remove sanding dust with a clean, dry cloth.

5.Apply a thin coat of a clear protective finish; the factory-applied seal is compatible with virtually all finishes. A low odor, water clean up, quick drying finish such as Minwax® Polycrylic® Protective Finish is recommended. Follow container label for directions.

6.Lightly sand and reapply if desired.
