Cleaning your wine cabinet
Turn off the power, unplug the appliance, and remove all items including shelves and rack.
•
Wash the inside surfaces with a warm water and baking soda solution. The solution
•
should be about 2 tablespoons of baking soda to 2 pints of water.
Wash the shelves with a mild detergent solution.
•
Wring excess water out of the sponge or cloth when cleaning area of the controls, or any
•
electrical parts.
Wash the outside cabinet with warm water and mild liquid detergent. Rinse well and
•
wipe dry with a clean soft cloth.
Power failure
Most power failures are corrected within a few hours and should not affect the temperature
•
of your appliance if you minimise the number of times the door is opened. If the power is
going to be off for a longer period of time, you need to take the proper steps to protect your
contents.
Vacation time
Short vacations: Leave the wine cabinet operating during vacations of less than three weeks.
•
Long vacations: If the appliance will not be used for several months, remove all items and turn
•
off the appliance. Clean and dry the interior thoroughly to prevent odour and mould growth,
leave the door open slightly (blocking it open if necessary).
Moving your wine cabinet
Remove all items.
•
Securely tape down all loose items (shelves) inside your appliance.
•
Wind the adjustable legs up to the base to avoid damage.
•
Tape the door shut.
•
Be sure the appliance stays secure in the upright position during transportation. Also
•
protect outside of appliance with a blanket, or similar item.
Energy saving tips
The wine cabinet should be located in the coolest area of the room, away from heat
•
producing appliances, and out of the direct sunlight.
