Contact the store from which you purchased it. This unit must always be kept upright - before, during and after unpacking. SETTING UP YOUR WINE CELLAR ALWAYS REMOVE ALL BOTTLES BEFORE MOVING THE WINE CELLAR Select the Right Location The cellar is designed to be freestanding and suitable for under the counter use. Always allow 2 inches of space on both sides and back of the wine cellar to allow proper ventilation. The cellar must be positioned on a flat surface that is strong enough to support it when fully loaded. 1 Choose a location where there is no risk of extreme temperatures, either hot or cold, such as a garage that is not properly insulated or heated. Do not place the unit in a moist area or in an area where it is exposed to direct sunlight. 2 Do not place the unit next to any appliance that emits large amounts of heat, such as a dishwasher, microwave, toaster oven, oven or barbecue, etc., or near radiators, baseboard heaters or other heat sources. NOTE: Allow enough space in the front of the unit to open the door 120°. Proper Air Circulation To assure that your wine cellar works at the maximum efficiency for which it was designed, you should install it in a location where there is proper air circulation and electrical connections. NOTE: The cellar is designed for freestanding operation. It is not made to be recessed or built-in (fully recessed). To ensure proper internal air circulation, do not overfill your wine cellar. Electrical Requirements Your wine cellar requires a power outlet (120V, 15 amps) with proper grounding. Avoid placing the unit where there may be electrical interference. 4
