ASSEMBLY & INSTALLATION

HANDLE ASSEMBLY

Tools Required for Assembly: Phillips screwdriver (not included)
Estimated Assembly Time: 5 minutes

Before installation, attach the handle to the front of the unit with the included screws. It may be necessary to push aside the rubber seal on the inside of the door to reveal the screw holes.

Avoid over-tightening the screws, or you may cause damage to the unit.

INSTALLATION

warning Before connecting the appliance to a power source, let it stand upright for approximately 2 hours. This will reduce the possibility of a malfunction in the cooling system from handling during transportation.

This appliance can either stand alone or be built in. The front grille must be unobstructed.

Before operating your wine/beverage fridge for the first time, follow these steps:

Clean the interior surface of the unit with lukewarm water and a soft cloth.
Place the fridge on a level surface that will be strong enough to support the unit when it is fully loaded. To level your fridge, adjust the front feet located at the bottom of the unit.
Install the fridge away from direct sunlight and heat sources such as stoves, heaters, or radiators. Direct sunlight may affect the unit's acrylic coating, and nearby heat sources can increase electrical consumption. Extreme cold or hot ambient temperatures may also prevent proper performance.

REVERSING THE DOOR SWING

The door hinge is on the left side by default. If you wish to reverse the swing so that the door opens from the right, it is important to have at least one other person to help. It is dangerous to try to reverse the door swing by yourself.

Unscrew the upper door hinge while the second person supports the door.
Remove the upper hinge and carefully lift the door off the bottom hinge.
Unscrew the bottom hinge and install it on the left side of the unit.
Flip the door around so that the handle is on the right side and slip the door over the bottom hinge.
Reattach the door by screwing the top hinge into the holes provided on the upper left surface of the unit. Make adjustments as necessary to be sure the door is aligned properly.

INSTALLING YOUR SPLIT SHELF

The top zone of the fridge comes with an adjustable split shelf configuration for your beverages, enabling you to have either a full-sized shelf or a half-sized shelf to accommodate different sized cans or bottles.

To install, simply remove the first shelf from the top zone of the fridge and replace with the included half-sized shelf.

CLEANING & MAINTENANCE

CLEANING YOUR FRIDGE

To clean your fridge:

Unplug the fridge and remove anything inside.
Wash the inside of the unit with a solution made of warm water and baking soda solution (2 tablespoons of baking soda to one quart of water).
Unscrew the water reservoir at the bottom of the unit and rinse with water.
To clean the outside of the unit, use a mild detergent and warm water.

MOVING YOUR FRIDGE

To move your fridge:

Remove anything stored inside.
Securely tape down all loose parts located inside the unit.
Turn the leveling feet up to the base in order to avoid damage.
Tape the door shut.
Be sure the fridge stays in an upright position during transportation.

WINE STORAGE GUIDE

The ideal temperature for storing red or white wines is 55°F, with humidity between 60% and 75% RH.
Store corked bottles on their sides, to keep the cork from drying out and allowing air into the bottle.
Place a damp sponge or pour a small amount of water into the included moisture tray to keep corks from drying out.
UV rays make wine age faster, so keep bottles out of direct sunlight.
Ensure your fridge is level to reduce vibrations
Store wine separately from strong odors that might contaminate the flavor of the wine.
