Care and cleaning

Cleaning the wine cellar
• Before cleaning, unplug the wine cellar and remove the bottles.
• Clean your wine cellar once every two months.
Inside: Wash inside surfaces of the wine cellar with a solution of two
tablespoons of baking soda in one quart (1.136 liters) warm water. Rinse
and dry. Wring excess water out of the sponge or cloth when cleaning in the
area of the controls, or any electrical parts.
Wash the removable parts with the baking soda solution mentioned above,
or mild detergent and warm water. Rinse and dry. Never use metallic
scouring pads, brushes, abrasive cleaners, or alkaline solutions on any
surface. Do not wash removable parts in a dishwasher.

well and wipe dry with a clean soft cloth.
Care of plastic parts
• Be sure and protect the door gasket. It should be kept clean at all times.

vegetable) for a long period of time, they will age and crack easily. Please
clean them on a regular basis.
