Using Your Wine Cooler
Before switching on
o Make sure that it has been installed by a suitably qualified person, as per the information contained in the installation
instructions.
o After delivery, wait for four hours before connecting the appliance to your mains supply. This will allow any refrigerant
gasses that may have been disturbed during the transportation process to settle.
o The outside of the appliance and the removable accessories contained within it, should be cleaned with a solution of
liquid detergent and water.
o The interior of the appliance should be cleaned with a solution of sodium bicarbonate dissolved in lukewarm water.
The interior and accessories should be thoroughly dried, after the cleaning process has been completed.
o There can be an odor when you first switch on the appliance. It will lessen as the appliance starts to cool.
During first use
IMPORTANT: When you use the wine cooler for the first time or restart the appliance after it has been turned off
for a long time, there could be a few degrees variance between the temperature you select and the one indicated
on the LED display. This is normal and it is due to the length of activation time. Once the wine cooler has been
running for a few hours everything will be back to normal.
o When you first switch on the appliance, the compressor will run continuously until the wine cooler reaches a cool
enough temperature.
o During this period of time, you should try not to open the door frequently or place bottles inside of the appliance.
o If the unit is switched off or unplugged, you must allow at least 5 minutes before restarting the appliance or
reconnecting it to your mains supply.
Loading the wine cooler
IMPORTANT: Your appliance is ideally suited to store 0.75 liter Bordeaux style wine bottles. Whilst it can store
larger bottles, you must make sure that they do not prevent the door from shutting properly.
o
Always check that you can close the door without it fouling on a wine bottle, before shutting it.
o
When loading several bottles of wine at once, it will take longer for the appliance to cool the individual bottles.
As many bottles may differ in size and dimensions, the actual number of bottles you are able to store may vary.

The maximum storage number is based on standard 0.75 liter Bordeaux style wine bottles.
