Operating Your Azure Appliance
When you use your Azure appliance for the first time, or restart the appliance after having been shut off for a long period of time, there could be a few degrees variance between the temperature you select and the one indicated on the LED readout. This is normal and is due to the length of time that it was inactive. Once the appliance has been running for a few hours, the temperature readout will go back to normal.
If the unit is unplugged, power lost, or turned off, you must wait 3 to 5 minutes before restarting the unit. If you attempt to restart before this time delay, the appliance may not start and will keep the last set temperature.
The Controls of Azure Appliance
ºF/ºC Selector
You can choose to display temperatures in Celsius or Fahrenheit. To change the temperature from Fahrenheit to Celsius or from Celsius to Fahrenheit, touch and hold the button for 5 seconds.
Setting a Temperature
The temperature will increase by 1ºC or 1ºF if you touch the UP mark once, and will decrease 1ºC or 1ºF if you touch the DOWN mark once.
Setting the Temperature Control for your Wine Center
Model Numbers: A115WC-S; A115WC-O; A124WC-S; A124WC-O
• Your wine cellar has one temperature controlled compartment, which has a temperature range between 40° and 64°F (5 and 18°C).
• It is recommended to set the temperature between 55-64°F (12°C to + 18°C) range for storing red wines and to adjust the temperature between 40-55°F range (5° and 12°C) for champagnes and white wines.
• The Wine Center should be placed in a position where the ambient temperature is between 60- 95ºF (16-35°C). If the ambient temperature is above or below this range, the performance of the unit may be affected. o For example, placing your unit in extreme cold or hot conditions may cause interior temperatures to fluctuate. The range of 40-65ºF (5-18°C) for a wine center may not be reached.
Setting the Temperature Control for your Beverage Center and Refrigerator
Model Numbers: A115BEV-S; A115BEV-O; A115R-S; A115R-O; A124BEV-S; A124BEV-O; A124R-S; A124R-O
• Your refrigerator and/or beverage center has one temperature controlled compartment, which has a temperature range between 34° and 43° F (1 and 6°C).
• The refrigerator and/or beverage center should be placed in a position where the ambient temperature is between 60-95ºF (16-35°C). If the ambient temperature is above or below this range, the performance of the unit may be affected.
For example, placing your unit in extreme cold or hot conditions may cause interior temperatures to fluctuate. The range of 34° and 43° F (1 and 6°C) may not be reached.
Key Lock
If in 2 minutes without touching any key, the controls will be locked automatically. To release the lock, touch the up and down marks at the same time for at least 5 seconds.
Shelves
• To prevent damaging the door or door gasket, make sure the door is fully open when pulling shelves out of the rail compartment.
• The shelves are designed with an emergency stop to prevent them being removed too far when loaded. For easy access to the bottles stored, pull the shelves out approximately a third of the way.
• To remove the shelves, simply pull the shelf forward to the “stopper” then lift the entire grate up and over the stopper.
Defrosting
• The unit defrosts automatically.
• The evaporator behind the rear wall of the unit defrosts automatically. The condensate collects in the drainage channel behind the rear wall of the unit, and flows through the drainage hole into the drip tray by the compressor where it evaporates.
Storage
• Many bottles may differ in size and dimensions. As such the actual number of bottles you may be able to store may vary
Care and Maintenance
Cleaning Your Azure Appliance
• Turn off the power, unplug the appliance, and remove all items including shelves and rack.
• Wash the inside surfaces with a warm water and baking soda solution. The solution should be about 2 tablespoons of baking soda to a pint of water.
• Wash the shelves with a mild detergent solution.
• Wring excess water out of the sponge or cloth when cleaning any area of the controls.
• Wash the outside cabinet with warm water and mild liquid detergent. Rinse well and wipe dry with a clean soft cloth.
Power Failure
• Most power failures are corrected within a few hours and should not affect the temperature of your appliance if you minimize the number of times the door is opened. If the power is going to be off for a longer period of time, you need to take the proper steps to protect your contents.
Vacation Time
• Short holidays: Leave the appliance in operation for holidays of less than three weeks.
• Long absences: If the appliance will not be used for several months, remove all items, turn off the appliance and unplug. Clean and dry the interior thoroughly.
o To prevent odor and mold growth, leave the door open slightly, blocking it open if necessary.
Moving Your Wine Center
• Remove all items.
• Securely tape down all loose items (shelves) inside your appliance.
• Turn the adjustable leg all the way up (clockwise) to the base to avoid damage.
• Tape the door shut.
• Be sure the appliance stays secure in the upright position during transportation. Also protect outside of appliance with a blanket, or similar item.
Energy Saving Tips
• The appliance should be located in the coolest area of the room, away from heat producing appliances, and out of the direct sunlight.
• Ensure that the unit is adequately ventilated. Never cover air vents.
• Only open the door for as long as necessary
