- Do not store explosive substances such as aerosol cans with a flammable propellant in this appliance.
- This cooler is designed to store wine bottles, however, if placing food inside, ensure that there is sufficient airflow between items.
- Do not place hot food or drink into the wine cooler before it cools down to room temperature.
- Close the cooler door immediately after putting in any items so the inside temperature will not rise dramatically.
- Keep appliance away from any heat source or direct sunlight.
- To fix stably, the appliance must be placed on a flat and solid surface. It should not be laid on any soft material.
- Do not place any other appliance on top of the wine cooler.
Electrical Safety and Usage
- The Wine Cooler is an electrical appliance. To avoid injury or death 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.
- The appliance shall not be exposed to rain.
- When positioned or if moving the appliance, ensure that it is not set horizontally or declined less than 45° or turned upside down.

- Never lift or carry the Wine Cooler by the cord.
- Keep the cord away from heated surfaces.
- This Wine Cooler is for household use only. Any other use will void the warranty.
- Do not plug into the power socket before set up is completed.
- An empty cooler can be a dangerous attraction to children. If disposing of the cooler, remove gaskets, latches, lids, or the entire door from your unused appliance, or take other action to ensure the cooler is harmless.
- Do not store food in your wine cooler as interior temperature may not get cool enough to prevent spoilage. In summer months or areas of high humidity, the glass door may build up moisture. To remove the moisture, wipe it away.
Food Contamination Prevention
To avoid contamination of food, please respect the following instructions:
- Opening the door for long periods can cause a significant increase of the temperature in the compartments of the appliance.
- Clean regularly surfaces that can come in contact with food and accessible drainage systems.
- Clean water tanks if they have not been used for 48 hours; flush the water system connected to a water supply if water has not been drawn for 5 days.
- The appliance shall not be exposed to rain.
Child Entrapment Warning
DANGER: Risk of child entrapment. Before you throw away your old refrigerator or freezer:
- Take off the doors.
- Leave the shelves in place so that children may not easily climb inside.

2. Operation Guide
- Insert the power plug into the power socket. Make sure the power socket is 110-120V AC/60Hz.
- Allow the empty wine cooler to operate for approximately one hour. This will allow the wine cooler to reach the desired temperature.
- Fill the wine cooler with your choice of wine bottles. Allow 1-2 hours of operation before the bottles reach the desired temperature.
3. Temperature Control
To control the internal temperature, adjust the temperature control panel and light switch.
Control Panel Description: The control panel features a temperature display, buttons for increasing temperature (Temp. Up), decreasing temperature (Temp. Down), and an On/Off button that also controls the Interior Light.
The temperature range for the Wine Cooler is 54°F–66°F. When the temperature is set to a certain point and the temperature inside reaches this point, the automatic temperature control system begins to work, and the cooling system enters a linear temperature-keeping status.
4. Cooling Speed
The temperature inside can be cooled to 54°F (depending on the model) in 2 hours (with the unit empty). When the temperature control is adjusted, the temperature will stabilize again in a certain period. The range of change and the ambient temperature determine this period.
5. How to Clean
Disconnect the power supply before cleaning and maintenance.
- Cleaners: Never use harsh, abrasive cleaners, heavy-duty cleaners, or solvents on any surface.
- Exterior: Wipe with a damp, sudsy cloth, rinse, and dry. For stubborn stains and for periodic waxing, use silicon wax.
- Refrigeration Section: Wash shelves and other removable parts in warm sudsy water, rinse, and dry. Wash the interior with baking soda solution (3 tablespoons to 1 liter of water) or warm sudsy water, rinse, and dry.
- Magnetic Door Seals: Wash with warm sudsy water.
- The Finishing Touch: Replace all parts and return the thermostat dial to the desired setting.
6. How to Install
- Install the cooler in a convenient location away from extreme heat and cold. Allow sufficient clearance between the cooler and the side wall so the door will open without obstruction. The cooler is not designed for recessed installation.
- Select a space with a strong, level floor.
- Never place the appliance with the front edge along the edge of a table top or shelf, because there is a risk of the appliance tipping forwards and falling if the door compartments are overloaded. Take care to ensure that there is sufficient space in front of the appliance so that when opening the door, the door lies on the storage surface when the appliance is tipped.
- Clearance Diagram Description: A diagram shows required spacing around the unit. Allow 2 inches (5cm) of space between the cooler's side and the wall, and 4 inches (10cm) between the back and the wall.

If the Wine Cooler's power cord is damaged, have it replaced by a qualified repair agent.
