This wine cooler is not intended for use by young children or physically-challenged
persons without supervision/assistance. Young children must be supervised to ensure
safety around this or any appliance.
Ensure the unit is unplugged before cleaning or when not in use.
To clean the unit, use only mild detergents or glass cleaning products. Never use harsh
detergents or solvents.
Do not use this wine cooler with an extension cord or power board. Please ensure that
the appliance is plugged directly into the electrical outlet.
When positioning the wine cooler, ensure that there is at least a 2” clearance at the
sides and a 4” clearance at the back. This will allow for adequate ventilation of any heat
generated by the wine cooler.
This cooler is designed to store wine bottles. If food is stored inside, ensure that there is
sufficient airflow between items. Please note that the temperature range for this cooler
is optimized for wine and beverage storage. Perishable food items may require a
different storage environment.
Do not place hot food or beverages into the wine cooler.
Close the cooler door immediately after putting in any items to keep the internal
temperature relatively constant.
Keep the appliance away from any heat source or direct sunlight.
For a stable installation, make sure the appliance is placed on a flat, level and solid
surface.
Ensure that the surface on which the wine cooler is placed is strong enough to hold the
wine cooler and the items stored inside.
Avoid placing any objects on top of the wine cooler.
The wine cooler is an electrical appliance. To avoid injury or death from electrical shock
do not operate the Wine Cooler with wet hands, while standing on a wet surface or while
standing in water. Do not use outdoors or in wet conditions.

greater than 45° off level.

outlet.
Never lift or carry the wine cooler by the power cord.

4. Installation
Before using your wine cooler
Remove the exterior and interior packaging material.
Stand the unit upright for approximately 2 hours before connecting to the power
source. This will reduce the possibility of a malfunction in the cooling system
from handling during transportation.
Clean the interior surface with a soft cloth and warm water.
Place your appliance on a floor that is strong enough to support the appliance
when it is fully loaded.
Do not place the appliance in direct sunlight and sources of heat (stove, heater,
radiator, etc.). Direct sunlight may affect the acrylic coating and heat sources
may increase the ambient temperature and electrical consumption. Extreme
cold or hot ambient temperatures may also cause the appliance to malfunction.
Allow up to 24 hours of operation for the wine bottles to reach the desired
temperature.
Electrical Connection
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 a qualified electrician.
This appliance should be properly grounded for your safety. The power cord of this unit is
equipped with a 3-pin plug to minimize the possibility of electrical shock. Do not under any
circumstances cut or remove the ground wine from the power cord supplied.
Use of extension cords is not recommended.
This unit requires a standard 110V-60HZ electrical outlet with 3-pin plug.
To prevent accidental injury, the power cord should be secured behind the wine refrigerator
and not left exposed or dangling.

The bottle capacity listed for your wine cooler is an estimated maximum capacity based on a

designed to operate without the leveling legs.
Wine Racks
The individual wine racks have a slight difference between the top and a bottom of the racking.
If you are having trouble fitting the maximum number of bottles of wine in the wine cooler, try
flipping the wine racks over to accommodate the shape of the bottle.
Air Filter
Your wine cooler has a washable air filter over the air intake in the back. Periodically, this air
filter should be cleaned. Remove the air filter and gently wash it in a solution of mild detergent
and water. Make sure it is completely dry before installing it back to the air intake.
