Care And Maintenance - Vinotemp VT-155SBB Owner's Manual

DYNAMIC COOLING/SILENT MODES
The Dynamic Cooling feature enables the relative humidity inside the unit and the temperature to be
distributed evenly around the interior so you can store all of your wine under the exact same excellent
conditions. If you would like to use the unit to store wine long term, the dynamic cooling is a must. This will
create a continuous climate in the cabinet which imitates that of a wine cellar.
In the Dynamic cooling mode, the interior fan circulates the inside air evenly until the set temperature is
reached. Dynamic Cooling is the factory preset mode. To change to Silent mode, touch and hold the UP
button for approximately five seconds. The wine cooler will beep three times to confirm silent mode is on. To
change back to Dynamic Cooling mode, touch and hold the DOWN button for five seconds. The wine cooler
will beep five times to confirm Dynamic Cooling mode is on.
CLEANING YOUR WINE COOLER
IMPORTANT: Always unplug the unit before cleaning or performing maintenance. Never use harsh cleansers or scouring
pads to clean any part of the unit.
•
Turn off the power, unplug the appliance, and remove all items including shelves.
•
Wash the inside surfaces with a warm water and baking soda solution. The solution should be about 2
tablespoons of baking soda to a quart of water.
•
Wash the shelves with a mild detergent solution.
•
Wring excess water out of the sponge or cloth before cleaning control panels 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 the
power is off for an extended period of time, proper steps should be taken to protect your contents.
INACTIVITY
If the unit will not be used for a period of less than three weeks, leave the cooler operating. If the period of inactivity is
several months, remove all items and turn the unit off. Clean and dry the interior thoroughly. Leave the door open slightly
to prevent any possible moisture build-up.
MOVING YOUR WINE COOLER
Before moving your wine cooler, first be sure to remove all items from the cooler.
•
Securely tape down any loose items, such as shelves, inside the unit.
•
Turn the adjustable leg up to the base to avoid damage.
•
Tape the door shut.
•
Ensure that the unit stays securely in the upright position during transportation. Protect the outside of the
appliance with a blanket or similar item.
ENERGY SAVING TIPS
•
The unit should be located in the coolest area of the room away from heat sources or direct sunlight.
•
Ensure that the unit has proper allowances on all sides for proper ventilation. Never cover any air vents.
•
Only open the cooler door for as long as necessary. Frequent opening of the door will affect internal temperature.
