IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Your safety and the safety of others are very important.
This wine cooler complies with the applicable safety requirements and is safe for daily use.
However, basic safety precautions should always be followed when using an electrical appliance,
to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and personal injury.
Plug into its own individual electrical outlet with a voltage rating that matches the rating
label on the cooler (115/120V AC only, 60Hz, 10A). Use receptacles that cannot be
turned off by a switch or pull chain. Be sure that the plug is fully inserted into the
receptacle.
Plug into a grounded 3-prong outlet. Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the
third ground prong from the power cord supplied.
To protect against electric shock, do not immerse the wine cooler, plug or cord in water
or other liquids.
Never unplug the cooler by pulling the power cord. To disconnect the wine cooler, always
grip the plug firmly and pull straight out from the wall outlet.
Repair or replace immediately all power cords that have become frayed or otherwise
damaged. Do not use a cord that shows cracks or abrasion damage along its length or at
either end.
Do not connect or disconnect the electric plug when your hands are wet. Do not operate
the cooler with wet hands, while standing on a wet surface or while standing in water.
Unplug the wine cooler or disconnect power before cleaning or servicing. Failure to do so
can result in electrical shock or death.

hazard or explosion. And do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapor and
liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance. The fumes can create a fire hazard
or explosion.
Do not attempt to repair or replace any part of your wine cooler unless it is specifically
recommended in this manual. All other servicing should be referred to a qualified
technician.
An empty wine cooler can be dangerous to children. Remove any latches, lids, locks,

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Before Using Your wine cooler
Remove the exterior and interior packaging.
Check to be sure you have all of the following parts:
o
6 Wood Shelves
o
2 Keys
o
Stainless Steel Handle
o
Instruction Manual
o
2 Extra Screws for Installing Handle
IMPORTANT: Before connecting this wine cooler to a power source, let it stand upright for
approximately 24 hours. This will reduce the possibility of a malfunction in the cooling
system from handling during transportation.
Clean the interior surface with lukewarm water using a soft cloth.
Install the handle on the left side of the door.
To Install Stainless Steel Handle
1) Pull away the door gasket in the area where the handle is to be installed, as Illustration #1.
The gasket is easily removed by hand, no tools are necessary.
2) Align the handle with the preinstalled screws on the door frame. Tighten the screws with a
screwdriver until the handles secure tightly against the door frame, as Illustration #2. (Do NOT
over tighten as this will cause damage to the handle assembly).
3) Replace the door gasket to its original position.
Note: This wine cooler includes stainless steel handles that are not required to operate this wine
cooler. If you choose not to use the handle supplied, simply follow step 1 to access the
pre-installed screws and remove them and then place 2 decorative plugs (NOT included) into the

To Install Your wine cooler
-
This wine cool e r is desi gned for free standi ng o r built-in (fully recessed) installation.
-
Place your wine cooler on a soli d and level floor that is strong enough to support it when it is
fully lo aded. This will ensure a vibration-free and noise-free operation. Adjust the leveling
legs in and out to stabilize the cooler horizo ntally. If the legs are not properly adjus ted, the
cooler may be unstable and result in excess noise or vibration.
-
Locate the wine cooler away from direct sunlight and sources of heat (stove, heater, radiator,
etc.). Direct sunlight may affect the acrylic coati ng and heat sources may increase electrical
consumption. Extremely cold ambient temperatures may also cause the cooler not to perform
properly.
-
It is not advisable to install this cooler in moist areas or directly adjacent to a kitchen sink, as
moisture could cause premature corrosion to the components of your new cool e r.
-
It is recommended you install the wine cooler in a place with temperatures above 60°F
(15°C) and below 90°F (32°C), and humidity is unde r 60%. If the ambient temperature is
above or below recommend e d temperatures, the performance of the cooler may be affected.
Placing your cooler in extremely cold or hot conditions may cause interio r temperatures to

fluctuate, and the temperature range of 5ºC-18ºC (40ºF-65ºF) may not be reached.
Connect the wine cooler to an exclusive, properly grounded, standard electrical supply (115
V AC only, 60 Hz), in accordance with the National Electrical Code and local codes and
ordinances. Any questions concerning power and/or grounding should be directed toward a
certified electrician or an authorized products service center.
Warning: Improper use of the grounded plug can result in the risk of electrical shock. If the
power cord is damaged, have it replaced by an authorized service center.
The wine cooler should always be plugged into its own individual electrical outlet which
has a voltage rating that matches the rating label on the wine cooler. This provides the
best performance and also prevents overloading house wiring circuits that could cause a
fire hazard from overheated.
Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the third ground prong from the power
cord supplied.
Do not use an extension cord or adapter plug. However, if you must use an extension
cord, it is absolutely necessary that it be a UL-listed, 3-wire grounding type wine cooler
extension cord having a grounding type plug and outlet and that the electrical rating of
the cord is 10 amperes (minimum) and 120 volts.
Do not use a cord that shows cracks or abrasion damage along its length or at either end.
If the wine cooler is going to be used in an area that is prone to power surges/outages,
it is suggested that you use a power surge protector. The surge protector that you select
must have a surge block high enough to protect the wine cooler it is connected to.
Damages due to power surges are not considered a manufacturer covered defect and
will void your product warranty.

CARE & MAINTENANCE
Cleaning Your wine cooler
IMPORTANT: Always unplug the cooler before cleaning or performing maintenance. Never use
harsh cleansers or scouring pads to clean any part of the cooler.
Turn off the power, unplug the wine cooler, and remove all items including shelves.
Wash the inside surfaces with warm water and baking soda solution. The solution should
be about 2 tablespoons of baking soda to a quart of water.
Wash the shelves with a mild detergent solution.
Wring excess water out of the sponge or cloth when cleaning the area near the controls,
or any electrical parts.
Wash the outside cabinet with warm water and a mild liquid detergent. Rinse well and
wipe dry with a clean soft cloth. Do not use steel wool or steel brush to rub the stainless
steel, which will contaminate the stainless steel with steel particles and rusting may
occur.
Power failure
Most power failures are corrected within a few hours and should not affect the temperature of
your wine cooler. If the power is off for an extended period of time, proper steps should be taken
to protect your contents.
Vacation Time
Leave the wine cooler operating during vacations of less than three weeks. For periods longer
than this, turn the wine cooler off and leave the door slightly ajar to prevent odor from building
inside the wine cooler.

sunlight.
- Ensure that the cooler is adequately ventilated. Never cover air vents.
- Only open the cooler door for as long as necessary. Frequent opening of the door will affect
internal temperature.
