2 Proper Use of Beverage Cooler

2.1 Names of Components

The beverage cooler includes the following components:

• Electronic Temperature Control
• Shelf
• Three Pane Glass Door
• Adjustable Legs

(Diagram description: A front view of the beverage cooler showing the glass door, and a top view of the interior showing shelves. Labels point to the Electronic Temperature Control at the top, the Shelf, the Three Pane Glass Door, and Adjustable Legs at the bottom.)

2.2 Display Control

When powering on the cooler for the first time, the display screen will show all segments for 3 seconds and the start-up tone will ring, and then the display will enter a normal running state.

(Diagram description: A representation of the control panel display showing icons for power, temperature up, temperature down, and a checkmark, along with a temperature reading of "64.4°F". Labels indicate "Hold 3S" for power/standby, "Hold 3S - Quick Cool" for a fast cooling function, and "Hold 3S - °F/°C" for switching temperature units.)

[Warning] Avoid scratching the display panel with sharp objects and keep it away from high magnetic fields and high humidity. Normal settings and operation of the cooler may be affected.

2.3 Functions

Except for the lighting function, the following functions must be carried out when the display panel is unlocked:

Standby Function

• To exit standby state, press the standby button until the buzzer rings. The display screen will then display the set temperature.
• To enter the standby state, press the standby button until the buzzer rings. The display screen will turn off.

Lighting Mode

Press the lighting key until the buzzer rings to turn the internal lamp on or off.

Switching Temperature Units

Press the Temperature-rise key and the Temperature-drop key continuously for 3 seconds to switch between Celsius and Fahrenheit temperature displays. The display area will show the selected temperature unit.

Temperature Setting

Press the temperature-rise key to increase the temperature by 1°C (or °F). After locking, the cooler will run according to the setting value. Press the temperature-drop key to decrease the temperature by 1°C (or °F). After locking, the cooler will run according to the setting value.

• Setting range of the Celsius temperature: 1°C - 10°C.
• Setting range of the Fahrenheit temperature: 33.8°F - 50°F.

Memory Function

The cooler has a power-off memory function. If the power supply is reconnected, the cooler will resume operation at the temperature set before the power outage.

2.4 Fast Cool Feature

• Press and hold the power and light icons together for 3 seconds to activate fast cooling.
• The display will show "FC" to indicate that fast cooling is activated. The unit will cool faster and maintain its cool temperature longer.
• To deactivate fast cooling, press and hold the power and light icons together for 3 seconds again. "FC" will disappear from the display, and the regular temperature will appear.
• Fast Cooling will automatically deactivate when the unit reaches 37.4°F or after 24 hours.

Storing too many cans or bottles in the cooler may cause the temperature in the cooler to rise temporarily.

2.5 Placement

• Before using the cooler, remove all packaging materials including bottom cushions, foam pads, and tape. Tear off the protective film on the door and the appliance body.
• The cooler should be placed in a well-ventilated indoor place on a flat and sturdy ground. (Rotate the leveling feet left or right to adjust if unstable.)
• Keep away from heat and avoid direct sunlight. Do not place the appliance in moist or watery places to prevent rust or reduction of insulation.
• Please leave at least 30 cm of space above the appliance, and 10 cm from both sides and backside to facilitate heat dissipation.

2.6 Start to Use

• The cooler must stand upright for half an hour before connecting power when it is first started.
• Clean the interior before using for the first time.
• Do not connect the cooler to electronic energy saving plugs and converters that convert DC into AC (e.g., solar energy systems, ship grids).
• When the compressor is running, there may be water drops or frost on the backside of the cooler. Wiping out frost or water drops is not needed as the water will be collected into the drain tank, then inflow into the water disposal pan above the compressor and vaporized.

2.7 The Arrangement of Bottle

Do not let bottles touch the cooler's back to maintain good air circulation within the cooler. The number of bottles that can be stored may vary depending on bottle shapes and sizes. Oversized bottles may impact the total number of bottles that can be stored inside the beverage cabinet.

2.8 Usage of Temperature Zones Inside the Beverage Cooler

Due to different temperature zones generated by air circulation in the cooler, the upper area's temperature is higher than the lower area.

2.9 Energy Saving Tips

• The cooler should be placed in a dry and well-ventilated room. It should not be placed in direct sunlight or next to a heat source (such as a radiator, stove, etc.). A suitable insulation board should be applied if necessary.
• Do not keep the cooler door open for too long.

2.10 Reversing the Door Swing

This procedure allows you to change the door opening direction (e.g., from right-handed to left-handed).

(Diagram description: Close-up views of hinge components like "Upper hinge cover", "Hole cap", "Upper hinge", and "Axle Sleeve".)

1. Change the installation location of the upper hinge of the beverage cabinet to alter the door's opening direction. Follow these instructions: Close the glass door, carefully remove the axle sleeve and rivet using a blade, loosen the mounting cover of the door hinge and three positioning bolts, and remove the upper hinge and axle sleeve.
2. Open the beverage cabinet door and detach the glass door with extreme care.
3. (Diagram description: A view of the bottom of the door showing "Door Stopper", "Door Axle", and "Back Screws".) Remove the door axle sleeve at the lower part of the glass door, door stopper back screws, and door stopper, then fix them to the left side.
4. (Diagram description: A view of the bottom hinge and adjustable feet. Labels include "Adjustable Foot", "Hinge", "Positioning Bolts".) Remove the adjustable foot, positioning bolts, and lower hinge. Exchange the parts for the right and left sides, then use the reverse method to install the adjustable foot and positioning bolts.
5. Place the glass door onto the lower hinge, install the door axle sleeve back, and then install the upper hinge. Align the door with the cabinet and check the tightness of the gasket.

3 Maintenance of Beverage Cooler

3.1 Disconnect the cooler

Unplug the power plug to disconnect the cooler.

3.2 Stop using the cooler

If the cooler is left unused for a long time, please:

• Unplug the cooler.
• Clean the cooler.
• Keep the cooler door open.

3.3 Cleaning

• Clean dust behind the cooler and on the ground to improve cooling effect and energy saving.
• Check the door gasket regularly to ensure there is no debris. Clean the door gasket with a soft cloth dampened with soapy water or diluted detergent.
• Clean the interior of the appliance regularly to avoid odors.
• Please turn off the power before cleaning the interior. Remove all food, shelves, and drawers.
• Use a soft soft cloth or sponge to clean the inside of the appliance, with two tablespoons of baking soda and a quart of warm water. Rinse with water and wipe clean. After cleaning, open the door and let it dry naturally before turning on the power.
• For areas that are difficult to clean (such as narrow gaps or corners), it is recommended to wipe them regularly with a soft rag, soft brush, etc., to ensure no contaminants or bacteria accumulate in these areas.
• Do not use soap, detergent, scrub powder, spray cleaner, etc., as these may cause odors in the interior of the appliance or contaminate food.
• Clean the bottle frame, shelves, and drawers with a soft cloth dampened with soapy water or diluted detergent. Dry with a soft cloth or dry naturally.
• The wooden wine rack should be cleaned with a dry cloth. The rack should not be directly immersed in liquid to prevent cracking or mold from moisture.
• Wipe the outer surface of the appliance with a soft cloth dampened with soapy water, detergent, etc., and then wipe dry.
• Do not use hard brushes, clean steel balls, wire brushes, abrasives (such as toothpastes), organic solvents (such as alcohol, acetone, banana oil, etc.), boiling water, acid or alkaline items, which may damage the cooler surface and interior. Boiling water and organic solvents such as benzene may deform or damage plastic parts.
• Do not rinse directly with water or other liquids during cleaning to avoid short circuits or damage to the electrical insulation.

[Warning] Do not use detergent and solvent with sand or acid.

[Warning] Please unplug the appliance for defrost and cleaning.
