TROUBLESHOOTING

POSSIBLE CAUSE
Check to make sure the wine cellar is on a level surface.
The wine cellar is not on a level surface.
The racks are out of position.
The bottle is too long.
This is simply a function of the cooling system. The lower the setting, the
more the fan will run. If the room is warmer than 90°F (32°C), it will run
more.
The unit has been designed to run continuously when operation at the
lower temperatures.
Check the wall outlet for power. Make sure the outlet is not controlled by a
wall switch.
Make sure the cooling vents are not obstructed.
The room may be too hot. If the ambient temperature is 90°F (32°C) or
higher, the unit can have difficulty chilling adequately on the white wine
setting.
When using the unit for the first time, it can take up to 24 hours to reach
the desired temperature.
It may not be plugged into the wall socket.
Make sure the wall socket it functional by testing another electrical
appliance in the power socket.
Make sure there are at least 3 to 5 bottles in the unit. Allow at least 24
hours for the internal temperature to adjust.
If the room temperature is above 90°F (32°C), the unit will not get below
51°F (11°C). Humidity does not affect the cooling ability of the unit.
To achieve accurate temperature control, the unit should not be used of
operated in any of the following locations:
o
In a sunny place
o
In a room with poor air circulation such as a garage near another heat-
producing appliance such as a dishwasher, oven or refrigerator.
o
With an outlet shared with a refrigerator, as the refrigerator will drain
power from the wine cellar.
o
In a cabinet or closet.
Make sure the cooling vents are not obstructed.
The unit can be manually set using the + and - symbols.
Temperature range is 45°F (7°C) to 65°F (18°C).
The unit uses about as much energy as a 10-watt light bulb.
