? Warning: Risk of fire/ flammable materials
Before Using Your Wine Cooler
- Remove the exterior and interior packaging.
- Before connecting the wine cooler to power source, let it stand upright for approximately 2 hours. This will reduce the possibility of a malfunction in the cooling system from handling during transportation.
- Clean the interior surface with lukewarm water using a soft cloth.
- Installation the free standing wine cooler, make sure that there is at least 50 mm clearance on each side and at least 100 mm clearance on the back, because this is the main exit of hot air, to leave sufficient ventilation system.
Diagram description: Diagram showing ventilation clearance requirements: 50mm on each side and 100mm at the back.
Shelf
- To prevent damage to the door seal, ensure that the door is fully open before pulling out the shelves to add or remove bottles.
- For easier access to the contents of the shelves, slide the shelf out approximately one third of the way. The shelves are, however, fitted with a stop to prevent the bottles falling out.
- To remove or reposition the shelves, incline the shelf as indicated in the diagram, then push or pull as required.

- Child lock: Press ⬆️ and ⬇️ for 3 seconds, all buttons will be locked. Unlocked if press the two buttons for 3 seconds again.
There is automatic storage memory when power off in this wine cooler, that means the setting temperature is memorized automatically even in power off, so the setting temperature is the same as last setting when the wine cooler is running again.
Defrosting: Wine coolers have been designed with an automatic defrost function. The purpose of the defrosting function is to regularly remove the frost that remains on the surface of the evaporator of the refrigeration system (built-in, not visible when it is not disassembled), so as to ensure that the refrigeration system has been operating efficiently and in a good cooling state. When the machine runs for a period of time, the machine will automatically enter the defrosting state. At this time, the compressor of the wine cooler will stop running, and the cooling fan in the wine cabinet will continue to run to defrost. When defrosting, the temperature in the box will rise, which is not a fault. After defrosting, the cooling will be automatically resumed, and the box temperature will gradually drop to the set temperature.
Points Of Intentions
- The vent grill outside the cabinet is the heat dissipation way of cooling system in wine cooler, please prevent anything from covering or blocking, or it will make the wine cooler overheating and cause damage to product.
- Please prevent blocking cooling fan, or it will make the temperature too high or uneven in the cabinet.
- Please close the door tightly, it will cause the refrigerating inefficiency, overflow in the cabinet, or unnormal temperature once the door is not closed tightly for a long time.
- Please shut off the power, and open the door to let the cabinet dry enough if you don't use the wine cooler for a long time.
- This product is not suitable for areas with an altitude of 2000 meters.

Layout and Storage
Your cabinet was designed to store a maximum number of bottles securely. We recommend that you observe the below tips to optimize loading.
- Remove tape from shelves once unit is stable and ready for storage.
- Disperse the bottles evenly to avoid concentrating weight in one place. Bottles must not touch either the back of the cabinet.
- Make sure that the bottles are not all grouped together either at the top or bottom of the cabinet.
- Only pull out one shelf at a time. Never attempt to pull more than one.
Maximum weight capacity per shelf is 55lbs.
You can increase your wine cooler storage capacity by removing shelves and stacking bottles on top of one another. Do not stack more than 3 rows of bottles per shelf.
Care Maintenance
Cleaning your wine cooler
- Turn off the power, unplug the appliance, and remove all items including shelves and rack.
- Wash the inside surfaces with a warm water and baking soda solution. The solution should be about 2 tablespoons of baking soda to a pint of water.
- Wash the shelves with a mild detergent solution.
- Wring excess water out of the sponge or cloth when cleaning any area of the controls.
- Wash the outside cabinet with warm water and mild liquid detergent. Rinse well and wipe dry with a clean soft cloth.
Power Failure
- Most power failures are corrected within a few hours and should not affect the temperature of your appliance if you minimize the number of times the door is opened. If the power is going to be off for a longer period of time, you need to take other measures to protect your contents.
- If the unit is unplugged, loses power, or is turned off, you must wait 3 to 5 minutes before restarting. Attempting to restart the wine cooler before this time has elapsed may prevent the wine cooler from starting.
Vacation Time
- Short holidays: You may leave the Wine Cooler powered on and unattended for absences of less than three weeks.
- Long absences: If the appliance will not be used for several months, remove all items, turn off the appliance and unplug. Clean and dry the interior thoroughly. To prevent odour and mold growth, leave the door open slightly: blocking it open if necessary.
Moving Your Wine Cooler
- Remove all items.
- Securely tape down all loose items (shelves) inside your appliance.
- Turn the adjustable leg up to the base to avoid damage.
- Tape the door shut.
- Be sure the appliance stays secure in the upright position during transportation. Also protect the outside of the appliance with a blanket, or similar item.
Energy Saving Tips
- The Wine Cooler should be located in the coolest area of the room, away from heat producing appliances, and out of the direct sunlight.
- Ensure that the unit is adequately ventilated. Never cover air vents.
- Only open the door for as long as necessary.

Wine Cooler Surface Condensation
Condensation is a natural phenomenon. When the wine cooler operates in a high temperature and high humidity environment during summer, moisture in the air will condense on the box shell and glass door surface due to the low temperature, making it feel wet. Condensation phenomenon mainly occurs in the door seal, door body surface, and other parts. When the relative humidity of the air exceeds 80%, bead condensation may appear on the glass door surface of the wine cooler, which is a normal phenomenon. You can use a soft cloth to wipe off the condensation. When the relative humidity reduces or ambient temperature increases, the condensation phenomenon will disappear naturally and will not affect the performance of the wine cooler. To reduce the phenomenon of condensation, please pay attention to the following points when you use:
- In the summer rainy season, often use a soft cloth to wipe the glass door surface and other areas prone to condensation to reduce the condensation phenomenon.
- Place the wine cooler in a location with better ventilation, which can also reduce the phenomenon of condensation.
Warranty
The warranty does not apply to damage resulting from abuse, accident, natural disaster, loss of electrical power to the product for any reason, alteration, outdoor use, improper installation, and improper operation, repair or service of the product by anyone other than an authorized service agency or representative.
