General Safety
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
This manual contains important information regarding the proper installation, use,
and maintenance of your beverage fridge and wine cooler. Following this manual
will ensure that your product will work at its peak performance and efficiency.
If you are experiencing problems, check “Troubleshooting” on page 11.
DISPOSAL OF REFRIGERATION APPLIANCES
Dispose of your appliance packaging properly. Refrigeration equipment must be
properly disposed of in an environmentally-friendly manner. This applies to any
old appliances and to your new unit once it reaches the end of its service life.
Please ensure that old or worn appliances are rendered unusable
before disposal by removing the plug, cutting the power cable,
and removing or destroying any snap fastenings or bolts. This will
prevent children from locking themselves in the appliance (risk of
suffocation) and endangering their lives in any other way.
WARNING
Risk of child entrapment. To avoid safety and suffocation risks for
children or pets, before you dispose of the appliance, take off the
doors and drawers and leave the shelves in place so children or
pets may not climb inside.
WARNING
The cooling system, particularly the heat exchange located at the back/bottom
of the unit, must not be damaged during installation or when using the appliance.
• This product is not to be handled as normal household waste — it should be
taken to a recycling collection point for electrical and electronic goods.
• By correctly disposing of this product you are contributing to the protection of
the environment. Improper disposal endangers health and the environment.
• Further information about the proper recycling of the product may be obtained
from your local government agency or waste collection department.

General Safety
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
BEFORE USING YOUR APPLIANCE
• Remove all exterior and interior packing materials.
• Before connecting the appliance to the electrical source, let it sit upright for
approximately 2 hours. This will reduce the possibility of malfunctions in the
cooling system caused by handling during shipping.
• Prior to use, clean the interior surface with warm water using a soft cloth.
• The door on this appliance is designed so it may be opened from either the left
or the right side. The unit is delivered with the door opening on the left side and
swinging out to the right. Should you wish to open the door from the right, see
installation instructions in the Installation Manual.
INSTALLATION OF YOUR APPLIANCE
Do not store or install the appliance outdoors.
WARNING
• Wine coolers and beverage fridges are designed for either built-in or free-
standing installation.
• Place your unit on a floor that is strong enough to support it when it is fully
loaded. Please note the units weigh roughly 136 to 144 pounds (62 to 65
kilograms) when empty, so adjust accordingly.
• To level your appliance, adjust the 4 legs by twisting clockwise or counter-
clockwise as needed until level.
• Install the appliance indoors and away from direct sunlight and sources of
heat (stove, heater, radiator, etc.). Sunlight may affect the acrylic coating,
and heat sources may increase electrical consumption. Extreme cold ambient
temperatures may also cause the unit not to perform properly.
• Never install the unit in damp or overly humid areas.
• Any questions concerning power and/or electrical connection should be
directed toward a qualified electrician, technician, or service provider.

General Safety
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• The air vent located at the bottom front of the appliance must never be covered
or blocked in any way.
• The unit must be appropriately installed to all electrical connections in
accordance with state and local government codes.
• Please note that the cooler may experience decreased cooling efficiency if air
flow is restricted due to a fully loaded cabinet.
• Install the wine cooler or beverage fridge in a well-ventilated area where the
ambient temperature is above 50 °F and below 90 °F (above 10 °C and
below 32 °C).
ATTENTION
• Never overload the unit’s cabinet.
• Do not open the door unless necessary.
• Never cover shelves with aluminum foil or any other material that may prevent
air circulation.
• It’s recommended to unplug the appliance if it sits empty for long periods. After
cleaning, leave the door ajar to allow air to circulate to avoid condensation,
mold, or odors from forming.

Normal Sounds
OPERATION
If the unit is unplugged, loses power, or turned off, you must wait 3 to 5 minutes before
restarting. If you attempt to restart before this time delay, the appliance may not start and
will not keep the last set temperature.
NOTE: Beverage fridges and wine coolers are equipped with a temperature
memory function. If power is lost, the previous set temperature will be saved
and the appliance will return to this setting once power is restored.
The unit is designed with an automatic defrost system. However, on colder settings, some
frost may build up. Additionally, the more humid the ambient conditions, more frost may
build up depending on surrounding humidity. Keep the door closed and avoid opening
the door unnecessarily to minimize frost build-up.
If frost is preventing the door from closing properly, you may need to power the unit off
until the frost melts (possibly up to 24 hours). Use a soft absorbent towel to dry the unit.
Never attempt to remove frost with a sharp object.
WARNING
NORMAL SOUNDS
Refrigeration appliances may make unfamiliar sounds. This is common. Hard surfaces
like floors or walls can make sounds seem louder than they actually are. These
sounds may be caused by the following:
• Rattling noises may come from the flow of the refrigerant or the water line.
• Items stored on top of the beverage fridge may make noises. We do not recommend
storing anything on top of the appliance.
• The high-efficiency compressor located in the sealed cooling system may make a
pulsating or high-pitched sound.
• Water running from the cooling system’s evaporator to the water bin may make a
splashing sound.
• As each cycle ends, you may hear a gurgling sound due to refrigerant flowing in the
cooling system.
• You may hear air being forced over the cooling system’s condenser by the
condenser fan.

with clean water. Wipe with a soft clean towel to prevent water spotting. Please
note that stainless steel door panels can discolor when exposed to chlorine gas
and moisture. Clean stainless steel with a cloth dampened with a mild kitchen-safe
cleaner and warm water solution. Never use an abrasive or caustic cleaning agent.

Energy Tips
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
POWER FAILURE
Most power failures are corrected within a few hours and should not affect the
internal temperature of your appliance if you minimize how often the door is
opened. For longer power outages, you need to take the proper steps to protect
your contents.
MOVING YOUR BEVERAGE FRIDGE OR WINE COOLER
• Remove all items.
• Securely tape down all loose items (shelves) inside your appliance.
• Turn the adjustable legs 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 direct sunlight.
• Ensure that the unit is adequately ventilated. Never cover air vents.
• Only open the door for as long as necessary.
