Finding a suitable location
• Your cooler is designed to be free standing only, and it should not be recessed
or built into a countertop or wall.
• Place your cooler on a floor, counter top, or cabinet that is strong enough to
support your cooler when it is fully loaded.
• Allow 4 in. (10 cm) of space on all sides of your cooler to allow for correct air
ventilation.
• Place your cooler away from direct sunlight and sources of heat (such as a
stove, heater, or radiator). Direct sunlight may affect the acrylic coating and
heat sources may increase electrical consumption. Ambient temperature
below 50° F (10° C) or above 85° F (29.4° C) hinders the performance of your
cooler. Your cooler is not designed for use in a garage or any other outside
location.
• Avoid placing your cooler in moist areas.
• Your cooler is not designed to be installed in an RV or used with an inverter.
• Do not stack your cooler.
• For your cooler to operate normally, avoid placing it in areas with high
magnetic fields or high humidity.

11 Adjust the leveling feet to level your cooler.
Grounding requirement
Your cooler must be grounded. Your cooler is equipped with a cord having a
grounding wire with a grounding plug. The plug must be inserted into an outlet
that is correctly installed and grounded.
Consult a qualified electrician or service person if you don’t understand the
grounding instructions, or if you aren’t sure whether your cooler is correctly
grounded.
Connecting to power
• Plug your cooler into a dedicated, correctly installed grounded wall outlet.
Your cooler should be operated on a separate electrical circuit from other
operating appliances.
• Plug in and run your cooler for three to four hours before making any
temperature adjustments and before adding wine. This allows your cooler to
reach a stable temperature.
• Do not use an extension cord with your cooler. If the power cord is too short,
have a qualified electrician install an outlet near your cooler. Use of an
extension cord can negatively affect your cooler’s performance.
WARNINGS:
• Incorrect use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock.
• Do not, under any circumstances, cut or remove the third ground prong from the
supplied power cord.
CAUTION: Your cooler is not designed to be installed in an RV or used with an inverter.
Notes:
• Check your local power source. Your cooler requires a 110V ~ 120V, 60Hz power supply.
• Use a receptacle that accepts the grounding prong. The power cord is equipped with a
3-prong (grounding) plug which plugs into a standard 3-prong (grounding) wall outlet
to minimize the possibility of electric shock hazard from your cooler.
• To prolong the service life of the compressor, wait for at least five minutes before
restarting your cooler after a power failure.

Using your cooler
Setting the temperature
• Press the temperature up or down buttons to increase or decrease the
temperature by one degree. The temperature range is 41° ~ 64° F (5° ~ 18° C).
• Press and hold the temperature up and down buttons at the same
time to switch between Fahrenheit and Celsius.
Memory function
When your cooler is turned off, it remembers the currently set temperature and
returns to that setting when it’s turned back on.
Using the display
• When you plug in your cooler for the first time, the display screen turns on for
three seconds, and you hear a start-up tone.
• In normal mode, the display shows the set temperature.
Lighting your cooler
• Press the light button to turn the interior light on or off. A beep sounds
when the light is turn on or off.
Using Quick Cool mode
• Press and hold the Power on/Standby and Light buttons at the same
time for three seconds to enter or quit the quick cool mode. The display shows
“FC” under Quick Cool mode. The cooler will quit quick cool mode
automatically after a maximum of 24 hours.
Using the wine shelves
• All of the shelves have tabs to engage the cabinet on both sides.
• Any of the shelves can be removed to accommodate larger bottles.
To remove a shelf:
1 Remove all bottles from the shelves.
2 Lift the shelf upward, then gently pull out the shelf.
3 To replace a shelf, place the sides of the shelf back onto the supporting guides
in the cabinet and push back until the shelf tabs slide into place.
Notes:
• A large number of bottles lowers the cooling efficiency of your cooler.
• When you put several bottles of wine in your cooler at one time, the temperature in
your cooler may rise temporarily.
• Adjust the thermostat setting by one increment at a time. Allow several hours for the
temperature to stabilize between adjustments.
• The screen display always shows the set temperature. When adjusting the
temperature, the temperature display blinks to indicate that the temperature is being
adjusted.
CAUTION: Make sure that the tabs are firmly engaged in the supporting guides before
storing any bottles.

Arranging your wine
In order to maintain good air circulation in your cooler, do not let the bottles
touch the back of your cooler.
Different temperature zones are generated within your cooler because of air
circulation. The upper area’s temperature is the highest while the lower area is the
lowest.
For best performance, store different types of wine within your cooler, in the
following sequence, from top to bottom:
•Strong red wine
• Pink and mild red wine
• White wine
• Champagne and spritzer
Serving and storage tips
We suggest that you pour wine at a temperature below the ideal serving
temperature, because the wine warms up quickly after it’s been poured into a
glass.
• Do not store bottled wine by the box or case in your cooler.
• The cork of an opened bottle should always be moistened when returning it
to the bottle.
• Red wine should be allowed to breathe (oxygenate) before drinking. We
suggest that you put pink/rose type wines onto the table two to five hours
before drinking and red wine four to five hours before drinking. That also
allows them to reach the suitable serving temperature. White wine, on the
other hand, can be served right away.
• Champagne should always be stored in your cooler and taken out
immediately before drinking.

Maintaining your cooler
Your cooler is designed for year-round use with only minimal cleaning and
maintenance.
When you first receive it, wipe the cabinet with a mild detergent and warm water,
then wipe dry with a dry cloth. Do this periodically to keep your cooler looking
new.
Cleaning the interior of your cooler
1 Unplug your cooler from the wall outlet.
2 Remove all beverages.
3 Wash the interior with a damp, warm cloth.
4 Clean the door gasket (seal) so the door closes correctly.
5 Dry the interior and exterior with a soft cloth.
Defrosting your cooler
The ice build-up on the inner back wall of your cooler automatically defrosts in a
compressor-off cycle.
Defrost water drains out of your cooler, passing through the drain outlet in the
inner back wall into a drain pan located above the compressor. The water
evaporates from the drain pan on its own.
Storing your cooler
1 Turn off your cooler and unplug it from the wall outlet.
2 Remove all beverages.
3 Clean your cooler.
4 Leave the door open slightly to avoid possible formation of condensation,
mold, or odor.
CAUTION:
To prevent damage to the finish, do not use:
• Gasoline, benzine, thinner, or other similar solvents.
•Abrasive cleaners.
Note: We recommend that you soak your cloth in a baking soda solution before washing
the interior. Mix one quart of warm water and two tablespoons of baking soda.
WARNING: Make sure that children do not have access to your cooler. If the door
accidentally closes while a child is inside your cooler, the child may suffocate.

Moving your cooler
1 Turn off your cooler and unplug it from the wall outlet.
2 Remove all beverages.
3 Securely tape down all loose items inside your cooler.
4 Tape the door shut.
Tips on saving energy
• Locate your cooler in the coolest area of the room, away from heat-producing
appliances or heating ducts, and out of direct sunlight.
• Do not overload your cooler. It forces the compressor to run longer.
• Do not open the door too often, especially if the weather is hot. Close the door
as soon as possible to prevent cool air from escaping.
• Make sure that the door seals completely to keep your cooler running
efficiently.
• Make sure that your cooler is sufficiently ventilated, with adequate air
circulation behind it.
Note: Make sure that your cooler stays in the upright position during transportation.

my wine cooler is
hot.
Several things could
cause this, including
the location, ambient
temperature, and
number of items in
your cooler.
Heat dissipation from the condenser may
make the outside feel hot. This is normal
and happens if:
• The room temperature is high.
• You have too many items in your wine
cooler.
• You open and close the door excessively.
The humidity
level in my cooler
is too low.
The door has been
opened too often or
was not closed
correctly.
Make sure that the
door is closed correctly.
Your cooler is in a
location that is too
hot.
Move your cooler to a cooler location.
The relative humidity
is too low.
Place a cup of water inside your cooler to
raise the humidity.
