3. Important Safety Instructions  
To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or injury when using your  
appliance, follows these basic precautions  
Do not use if the power supply cord is damaged. If damaged, it must be replaced  
by a qualified electrician.  
This wine cooler is not intended for use by young children or physically-  
challenged persons without supervision/assistance. Young children must be  
supervised to ensure safety around this or any appliance.  
Ensure the unit is unplugged before cleaning or when not in use.  
To clean the unit, use only mild detergents or glass cleaning products. Never use  
harsh detergents or solvents.  
Do not use this wine cooler with an extension cord or power board. Please  
ensure that the appliance is plugged directly into the electrical outlet.  
When positioning the wine cooler, ensure that there is at least a 4” clearance at  
the sides and a 6” clearance at the back. This will allow for adequate ventilation  
of any heat generated by the freestanding wine cooler.  
This cooler is designed to store wine bottles. If food is stored inside, ensure that  
there is sufficient airflow between items. Please note that the temperature range  
for this cooler is optimized for wine and beverage storage. Perishable food items  
may require a different storage environment.  
Do not place hot food or beverages into the wine cooler.  
Close the cooler door immediately after putting in any items to keep the internal  
temperature relatively constant.  
Keep appliance away from any heat source or direct sunlight.  
For a stable installation, make sure the appliance is placed on a flat, level and  
solid surface.  
Ensure that the surface on which the wine cooler is placed is strong enough to  
hold the wine cooler and the items stored inside.  
Avoid placing any objects on top of the wine cooler.  
The wine cooler is an electrical appliance. To avoid injury from electrical shock  
do not operate the Wine Cooler with wet hands, while standing on a wet surface  
or while standing in water. Do not use outdoors or in wet conditions.  
When positioning or moving the appliance ensure that it is not turned up side  
down or greater than 45° or more off level.  
Never pull the cord to disconnect it from the outlet. Grasp the plug and pull it from  
the outlet.  
Never lift or carry the wine cooler by the power cord.  
This wine cooler is designed for household, non-commercial use only. Any other  
use will void the warranty.  
Do not plug into the power outlet before set up is completed.  
 
An empty cooler can be a hazardous for children or small pets. If disposing of the  
cooler remove gasket seals, latches, lids or the entire door from your unused  
appliance, or take other action to ensure the cooler is harmless.  
Do not cut or remove the ground prong from the power cord.  
Do not move this appliance without emptying it and securing the door in a closed  
position.  
 
4. Installation  
Before using your wine cooler  
Remove the exterior and interior packaging material  
Stand the unit upright for approximately 2 hours before connecting to the power  
source. This will reduce the possibility of a malfunction in the cooling system from  
handling during transportation.  
Clean the interior surface with a soft cloth and warm water.  
Place your appliance on a floor that is strong enough to support the appliance when  
it is fully loaded.  
Do not place the appliance in an enclosed space or under direct sunlight or sources  
of heat (stove, heater, radiator, etc.). Direct sunlight may affect the acrylic coating  
and heat sources may increase the ambient temperature and electrical consumption.  
Extreme cold or hot ambient temperatures may also cause the appliance to  
malfunction.  
Allow up to 24 hours of operation for the wine bottles to reach the desired  
temperature.  
Electrical Connection  
Warning  
Improper use of the grounded plug can result in the risk of electrical shock. If the  
power cord is damaged, have it replaced by a qualified electrician.  
This appliance should be properly grounded for your safety. The power cord of this unit  
is equipped with a 3-pin plug to minimize the possibility of electrical shock. Do not under  
any circumstances cut or remove the ground wine from the power cord supplied.  
Use of extension cords is not recommended.  
This unit requires a standard 110V-60HZ electrical outlet with 3-pin plug.  
To prevent accidental injury, the power cord should be secured behind the wine  
refrigerator and not left exposed or dangling.  
 
5. Operations  
Temperature Setting  
It is recommended that you install the wine cooler in a place where the ambient  
temperature is between (60- 80°F). If the ambient temperature is above or below  
recommended temperatures, the performance of the unit may be affected. For example,  
placing in extreme cold or hot conditions may cause interior temperature to fluctuate  
thus the set temperature may not be achievable.  
You can set the wine cooler temperature by pressing the “ ” and “ ” buttons on the  
control panel.  
Temperature settings for upper zone: 44ºF-66ºF (Left side control panel)  
Temperature settings for lower zone: 50ºF-66ºF (Right side control panel)  
Generally for red wines, the temperature range should be between 57ºF 61ºF and for  
white wines, the temperature range should be 50ºF - 54ºF. This is based on an ambient  
room temperature of 77ºF.  
Interior Light  
You can turn on and off the interior light by pressing the “Light” button. The “Light”  
button on the left side controls the upper zone light and the “Light” button on the right  
side controls the lower zone light.  
Handle Bars  
Your wine cooler comes with a towel bar style handle. To install the handle, you will  
need a Phillips-head screwdriver.  
Open the door of the wine cooler.  
Located the two screw holes on the inside of the door (they may be partially  
obscured by the door seal so you may need to remove the door seal)  
Insert the screws into the screw holes until they stick out of the front of the door.  
Line up the holes in the handle with the screws and give each screw about 2-4  
full turns into the handle bar.  
Now the turn the screws in all the way, and your handles are installed.  
Replace seal into door frame.  
 
Bottle Capacity  
This wine cooler is designed to store 6 bottles in the upper zone and 15 bottles in the  
lower zone. The bottle capacity listed for your wine cooler is an estimated maximum  
capacity based on a standard 750ml wine bottle. For other size bottles, the capacity will  
vary.  
Leveling Legs  
Your wine cooler comes with four leveling legs. To adjust these legs, carefully lean the  
wine cooler to one side (make sure it is emptied and the door is secured) and unscrew  
the legs to make them longer. Screw the legs tighter to make them shorter. This wine  
cooler is not designed to operate without the leveling legs  
Wine Racks  
The individual wine racks have a slight difference between the top and a bottom of the  
racking. If you are having trouble fitting the maximum number of bottles of wine in the  
wine cooler, try flipping the wine racks over to accommodate the shape of the bottle.  
Air Filter  
Your wine cooler has a washable air filter over the air intake in the back. Periodically,  
this air filter should be cleaned. Remove the air filter and gently wash it in a solution of  
mild detergent and water. Make sure it is completely dry before installing it back to the  
air intake.  
Energy Saving Tips  
Do not locate the wine cooler in direct sunlight or any heat generating sources. Let any  
warm items cool before placing them in the wine cooler.
