▶ Remove all packaging and keep out of children's reach.
▶ If your wine cellar has been tilted for any reason, wait 24 hours be-
fore plugging it in.
▶ Handle the appliance always with at least two persons because it
is heavy.
Installation
▶ The appliance should be placed in a well-ventilated place. Ensure
a space of at least 10 cm around the appliance. It is designed for
free-standing installation only, not for built-in installation.
▶ Never place the appliance in a damp area or location where it
might be splashed with water. Clean and dry water splashes and
stains with a soft clean cloth.
▶ Do not install your wine cellar in any location not properly insu-
lated or heated e.g. garage etc. Your wine cellar was not designed
to operate in ambient temperature below 16 °C.

(e.g. stoves, heaters).
▶ Install and level the appliance in an area suitable for its size and use.
▶ Keep ventilation openings in the appliance or in the in-built struc-
ture clear of obstruction.
▶ Make sure that the electrical information on the rating plate agrees
with the power supply. If it does not, contact an electrician.
▶ The appliance is operated by a 220-240 VAC/50 Hz power sup-
ply. Abnormal voltage fluctuation may cause the appliance to fail
to start, or damage the temperature control or compressor, or
an abnormal noise when operating. In such a case, an automatic
regulator shall be mounted.
▶ Use a separate, easily-accessible, earthed socket for the power
supply. The appliance must be earthed.

(grounding) plug that fits a standard 3-cord (grounded) socket.
Never cut off or dismount the third pin (grounding). After the ap-
pliance is installed, the plug should be accessible.

not step on the power cable.
