IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
HOW TO CONNECT ELECTRICITY
Do not, under any circumstances, cut or
remove the third (ground) prong from
the power cord. For personal safety, this
appliance must be properly grounded.
The appliance should always be plugged
into its own individual electrical outlet
which has a voltage rating that matches
the rating plate. This provides the best
performance and also prevents overloading
house wiring circuits which could cause
a fire hazard from overheated wires.
The power cord of this appliance is
equipped with a 3-prong (grounding)
plug which mates with a standard 3-prong
(grounding) wall outlet to minimize the
possibility of electric shock hazard from
this appliance.
Never unplug an appliance by pulling on
the power cord. Always grip the plug firmly
and pull straight out from the outlet.
Have the wall outlet and circuit checked
by a qualified electrician to make sure
the outlet is properly grounded.
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.
Where a standard 2-prong wall outlet
is encountered, it is your personal
responsibility and obligation to have
it replaced with a properly grounded
3-prong wall outlet.
When moving the appliance, be careful not
to roll over or damage the power cord.

Controls and Features
Wine Chiller
The temperature range of the wine chiller
is from the low forties to the mid sixties.
Temperatures at the bottom of the cabinet
will be cooler than temperatures at the top
of the cabinet.
Temperature
control
Do not install the wine chiller where the
temperature will go below 55°F (13°C) or
above 90°F (32°C).
Position your wine inventory accordingly
(i.e. white wines in the cooler zones and
red in the warmer zones).
The RED WINE setting will provide a
storage temperature of approximately
55ºF (13ºC), which is optimum for the
storage for red wine.
To set the control, turn it to the RED WINE
setting. Once the bottles are loaded, allow
at least 24 hours before making any
adjustments to the initial setting.
The WHITE WINE setting will provide a
storage temperature of approximately 45ºF
(7ºC), which is optimum for white wine.
As with any refrigeration product, there is
a slight temperature variance at different
locations within the cabinet.

The top five full extension drawers each
hold eight bottles, two deep with the necks
alternating front to back or nine bottles,
alternating with necks pointing inward.
The bottom two full extension drawers
hold six bottles each and are loaded with
necks facing the rear. Tall bottles should
not be loaded on the bottom drawer

exposed to a slightly higher temperature
when the light is on. Position your wines
accordingly and remember to turn off
the light when it is no longer needed.
• Keep wines that you plan to use for
everyday drinking and entertaining on
the front half of the full extension
drawers where labels are completely
visible. Place wines for aging or longer
term storage in the rear.
The full extension drawer fronts on the
wine chiller are unfinished cherry wood.
During use, oil from hands may accumulate
and stain the wood.
• Apply the stain and sealer according to
the manufacturer’s instructions. To avoid
unpleasant odor, keep the door open to
ventilate and allow the stain/sealer to dry
completely before using the product.
Wood drawer
fronts
• The drawer fronts may be stained and
sealed to match adjacent cabinetry. The
tinted glass will make the stained wood
appear darker. A true color match can be
seen only when the door is opened.
NOTE: Natural wood may vary slightly in
grain and color.

Care and Cleaning
Wine Chiller
Unplug the wine chiller before cleaning.
Turn the wine chiller unit OFF or unplug
the unit before cleaning. Use a slightly
damp cloth or sponge when cleaning
around switches, lights or controls.
Other parts of the wine chiller center
unit—including the door gaskets, and
full extension drawers—can be cleaned
the same way.
Cleaning the
inside
Use warm water and baking soda solution—
about a tablespoon (15 ml) of baking soda
to a quart (1 liter) of water. This both
cleans and neutralizes odors. Thoroughly
rinse and wipe dry.
Periodically check the drain hole and
channel for any debris. If the drain is
blocked, condensation will not drain
properly.
Drain hole
Drain hole
To check and clean the drain hole,
remove the third and fourth drawers
(see instructions on Removing full extension
drawers on page 8). Sweep a damp cloth
along the channel in the back of the wine
chiller. Use a finger to sweep away any
debris from the drain hole.
The exterior surfaces can be washed with
mild soap and water.
Cabinet
Rinse thoroughly with clear water. Never
use abrasive scouring powders.
Use a glass cleaner or mild soap and water
and a soft cloth to clean the glass door.
Do not use any abrasive powders.
Avoid cleaning cold glass with hot water
because the extreme temperature
difference may cause it to break. Rough
handling of tempered glass can cause it
to shatter.
Glass door
The vinyl gasket may be cleaned with mild
soap and water, a baking soda solution or
a mild scouring powder. Rinse well.
After cleaning the door gasket, apply a thin
layer of paraffin wax or petroleum jelly to
the door gasket at the hinge side. This
helps keep the gasket from sticking and
bending out of shape.

Care and Cleaning
Wine Chiller
Unplug the wine chiller before cleaning.
Unplug the wine chiller before replacing
the light bulb.
Light bulb
replacement
To remove the light shield, push in the tab
on the left side of the shield and lower it.
Replace with a 15 watt appliance bulb.
If the power fails, open the door as
infrequently as possible to maintain
the temperature. A gradual rise in
temperature should not have any
adverse effect on the wine.
If it is extremely hot, you may want to move
the wine to the coolest location you can
find until power is restored.
In the event
of a power
failure
Do not store or use gasoline or other
flammable vapors and liquids in the
vicinity of this or any other appliance.

Newer appliances sound different from older appliances. Modern appliances have more
features and use newer technology.
Normal
operating
sounds
Do you hear what I hear? These sounds are normal.
HUMMM...
WHOOSH...
• The new high efficiency compressor
may run faster and longer than your
old appliance and you may hear a
high-pitched hum or pulsating sound
while it is operating.
• You may hear the fans spinning at
high speeds. This happens when the
appliance is first plugged in, when the
door is opened frequently or when large
amounts of beverages are added to
the appliance. The fans help maintain
desired temperatures.
• Sometimes the appliance runs for an
extended period, especially when the
doors are opened frequently.
• If the door is open for over 3 minutes,
you may hear a fan come on in order to
cool the appliance.
• You may hear a whooshing sound when
the doors close. This is due to pressure
equalizing within the appliance.
• The fans change speeds in order to
provide optimal cooling and energy
savings.
CLICKS, POPS,
CRACKS and CHIRPS
WATER SOUNDS
• You may hear cracking or popping sounds
when the appliance is first plugged in.
This happens as the appliance cools to
the correct temperature.
• The flow of refrigerant through the
appliance cooling coils may make a
gurgling noise like boiling water.
• Expansion and contraction of cooling
coils during and after defrost can cause
a cracking or popping sound.
• A water dripping noise may occur as
water from the evaporator flows into
the drain pan.
• Closing the drawer may cause a gurgling
sound due to pressure equalization.
