BEFORE YOU START
This guide is meant to serve as a quick reference for installation of the CellarCool unit. The remainder of this owner's manual will
provide more detailed information and instructions.
Upon receiving the CellarCool cooling unit:
1. Inspect the unit before installation. If damage is found, please contact your distributor or CellarCool Customer Service at
1-800-343-9463.
2. The unit should remain in an upright position for 24 hours prior to operation.
3. The CellarCool Optimum 2200, Optimum 3300, and Optimum 4400 units require a dedicated 115-volt, 15-amp circuit.
The CellarCool Optimum 8800 unit requires a dedicated 115-volt, 20-amp circuit. Use a surge protector with the CellarCool
units. Do not use a GFI(ground fault interrupter) line. GFI's are too sensitive to be used with CellarCool units, they will trip
prematurely and prevent the unit from operating.
4. For your convenience, the CellarCool unit has two power inlets: one on the side of the unit, and the other on the back. Use the
selector switch, located on the right side of the unit, to select the inlet you would like to use.
5. The unit is designed to gently cool down the temperature of the cellar over time by cycling cooler air throughout. Test the
unit prior to installation.
6. You are required to install a drain line to remove condensation from the unit.
7. The CellarCool unit is intended for use in properly designed and constructed wine cellars. Hire a professional wine storage
consultant with a valid contractor's license to build your wine cellar.
Never try to open the CellarCool unit, repair it yourself, or use a service company
without CellarCool's authorization. This will void your warranty.
If you encounter a problem with your CellarCool unit, please refer to the Troubleshooting Guide. If you have any further questions or
concerns, or need technical assistance, please contact CellarCool Customer Service at 1-800-343-9463. Please be sure all testing has
been completed prior to contacting Customer Service. Please have your results ready for your representative.
Please review the installation instructions in this manual. Failure to follow proper installation
procedures will void your warranty.
