EXTENSION CORD.
Grounding Method
This product is factory equipped with a power supply cord
that has a three-pronged, grounded plug. It must be
plugged into a mating grounding type receptacle in accor-
dance with the National Electrical Code and applicable lo-
cal codes and ordinances (see Figure 1). If the circuit does
not have a grounding type receptacle, it is the responsibility
and obligation of the customer to exchange the existing
receptacle in accordance with the National Electrical Code
and applicable local codes and ordinances. The third
ground prong should not, under any circumstances, be cut
or removed (see Figure 2). All U.L. listed refrigerated prod-
ucts are equipped with this type of plug.

Start Your Appliance
Interior Light and Switch
Your appliance will start upon initial plug-in. The LED will
flash amber upon initial plug-in due to your unit being
powered-on at the factory to verify performance and then
powered-off. The Sentry System™ refrigeration monitor
senses a power outage has occurred and relays this infor-
mation to you when you initially power-up your appliance.
This is normal and pressing the “ON/OFF” button will reset
this alarm function.
The interior light makes it easy to view your wine labels
and enhances the display of your collection. The light will
always come on when the door is opened.
Warning Alarms
Your wine cellar has been fitted with a Sentry System™
refrigeration monitor. This monitor will let you know if your
cellar is not functioning properly for optimum wine storage.
If your appliance’s control has been shut off (i.e., unit
plugged in, interior lights operate, display blank), unit must
be turned on. To turn on your appliance, push and hold
for five (5) seconds, the “ON/OFF” button located on the
display panel (see Figure 3).
Door Ajar Alarm
If the door has been left open for over five (5) minutes, the
alarm will sound and the LED will flash green. This will
stop as soon as the door is closed.
High and Low Temperature
Once loaded with wine bottles, allow at least 48 hours for
the unit to stabilize before making any adjustments to the
initial setting.
If your unit reaches temperatures outside normal operating
temperatures for your set point for more than one (1) hour,
an alarm will sound and the LED will flash red. This will
warn you that your wines have seen temperatures that may
not be conducive for long-term storage.
Set Your Temperature Mode
This product can display either Fahrenheit or Celsius. To
do so, press the “°F/C” button on the display panel.
Power Failure
If your unit experiences a power failure, the LED will flash
amber until the alarm is reset.
Set the Controls
The available temperature range of the unit is from 40 to
65 degrees F. The temperature set point is initially set in
the factory at 55 degrees F. The temperature set point can
be lowered or raised by first pushing the “SET” button on
the display pad. A “SET” icon will be displayed. Pushing
either the “WARMER” or “COLDER” buttons located on the
display pad will raise or lower the set temperature by one
(1) degree F or C (depending on your setting). As with any
refrigeration product, there is a slight temperature variance
at different locations within the cabinet.
Reset Alarms
Press the “ON/OFF” button for approximately one (1) sec-
ond. This will reset all audible and display alarms.
Sabbath Mode
Your wine cellar is equipped with a Sabbath Mode feature.
By activating this mode, you will be disabling all displays,
audible alarms and lights.
To activate Sabbath Mode, press and hold the “SET” but-
ton while pressing the “°F/C” button four (4) times within
seven (7) seconds. To deactivate Sabbath Mode, repeat the
process. Sabbath Mode will automatically deactivate after
72 hours.
Adjustable Temperature Control
The temperature control is fully adjustable from the low
forties to the mid-sixties. The range allows flexibility of
temperature preferences.

Front Bottles (Necks Facing Rear)
Rear Bottles (Necks Facing Front)
The six (6) roll-out shelves each hold four (4) bottles. See
Figure 4 for typical wine bottle spacing. Tall bottles should
not be loaded on the bottom rack because they may pre-
vent the door from closing.
Loading Tips and Suggestions
Position white wines on the middle or lower racks and red
wines on the upper racks (see Figure 5).
Keep wines that you plan to use for everyday drinking and
entertaining on the front half of the racks where labels are
completely visible. Place wines for aging or longer term
storing in the rear.
Figure 4
Roll-out Racks
The six (6) roll-out wine racks may be pulled out ap-
proximately 14 inches to facilitate adding or removing
bottles. Do NOT lean on or press down heavily on the
wine shelves. Doing so may damage the shelves and the
wine bottles stored on them. Pull the wine racks out gently
and carefully to minimize unsettling your wine collection.
AVOID pulling out more than one rack at any time to
maintain stability.

CARE AND CLEANING OF YOUR WINE CELLAR
To replace a light tube, use a hex-head driver, remove the
Condenser
two hex-head screws that hold a cover plate over the back
section of the light tube. Set the screws and cover plate
aside for reassembly later.
The condenser tubing inside the cabinet does not require
frequent cleaning; however, satisfactory cooling depends
on adequate ventilation over the coils. Be sure that noth-
ing obstructs the required air flow openings in front of the
cabinet. At least once or twice a year, brush or vacuum lint
and dirt from the condenser for efficient performance by
unscrewing the grille on the bottom front of the cabinet.
Using a small flat-blade screwdriver, gently lever the front
section of the light tube down to allow it to be pulled clear
of the light housing.
Disconnect the two insulated electrical connectors from the
cabinet’s electrical cable and discard the old light tube.
Reconnect the electrical connector of the new light tube to
the cabinet’s electrical cable connectors. Make sure it is
secure and fully installed.
Cabinet
The stainless steel cabinet can be washed with either
a stainless steel cleaner or a mild soap and water and
thoroughly rinsed with clear water. NEVER use abrasive
scouring cleaners.
Carefully realign the light tube’s electrical terminal back
into the rear of the light enclosure channel making sure not
to crimp them. Gently insert the light tube along the length
of the light enclosure channel. Press the light tube gently
into the light enclosure channel. Only a small part of the
light tube should project below the ceiling of the wine cel-
lar. DO NOT USE A HAMMER TO FIT THE LIGHT TUBE.
Interior
Wash interior compartment with mild soap and water. Do
NOT use an abrasive cleaner, solvent, polish cleaner or
undiluted detergent.
Roll-out Racks
Tha racks may be cleaned with mild soap and water and a
soft cloth. Do NOT use any abrasive cleaners.
Place the light tube terminal cover plate back in the original
position on the light enclosure’s flange. Reuse the original
two screws to secure it in place. Plug the wine cellar into
the electrical socket. Check to see if the light tube operates
properly. Your light tube’s replacement is complete.
Door Gasket
The vinyl gasket may be cleaned with mild soap and water,
a baking soda solution or a mild scouring powder.
Light Bulb Replacement
The light tubes are not covered by your warranty. Replace-
ment tubes can be obtained from your dealer or from
Marvel Industries.
WARNING! DISCONNECT THE POWER CORD BEFORE
ATTEMPTING LIGHT BULB REPLACEMENT. Failure to do so
may result in an electrical shock that could severely injure
you.
In the Event of a Power Failure
If a power failure occurs, try to correct it as soon as pos-
sible. Minimize the number of door openings while the
power is off so as not to adversely affect the unit’s tem-
perature.
The 3SWCE uses one, 6 watt light tube and the 6SWCE
and 8SWCE use two, 6 watt light tubes to illuminate the
interior of the wine cellar. The light tube is a very reliable
electrical component, but should it not function properly,
please call the dealer you purchased your wine cellar from
for a replacement light tube. Use only an original equip-
ment light tube from your dealer or Marvel Industries.
Do NOT under any circumstance use a light tube that
exceeds 10 watts!
