TIPS FOR ENERGY SAVING 1. The unit should be located in the coolest area of the room, away from sunlight, heat-producing appliances or heat sources, and should never be exposed to extreme temperatures. 2. Ensure that the door is properly closed when unit is turned on. 3. Disconnect the appliance when it is not in use for an extended period of time. 4. Turn off the interior light when displaying wine - it is not necessary. 5. Always keep your wine cellar well ventilated. Never block the vent, compressor, or evaporator openings on inside or exterior of unit. 6. The temperature of the cellar is coolest on the lowest shelves. If storing a mixture of wine types, it is recommended that reds be stored on top shelves, whites in the middle, and sparkling wines on bottom shelves. 7. Pre-cooling wine for 2 hours in refrigerator before storing in cellar is an energy-saver. 8. Keep the frequency of opening the door to a minimum, especially if room is hot or humid. 9. Use the Wine Storage Temperature Chart on page 8 to select temperature setting. To keep your wine in perfect condition, we've recommended the temperature of different wine types. 11
