Location When selecting a position for your unit make sure the floor is flat and firm, and that the room is well ventilated with an average room temperature of between 16C and 32C. Avoid locating your unit near a heat source, e.g. a cooker, boiler or radiator. Avoid direct sunlight. If you are placing your unit in an outbuilding such as a garage or annex ensure that the unit is placed above the damp course, otherwise condensation will occur on the cabinet. Never place the unit in a wall recess or into fitted cabinets or furniture.

When installing the unit, ensure that 2 cm of free space is left at both sides and 3 cm at the rear of the unit. The door can open to the right or the left, depending on what better suits the location. Please ensure there is adequate space for the door to fully open.

Operating.Instructions

THERMOSTAT CONTROL DIAL

MIN SUPER

Switching.On.Your.Wine.Cooler 1. The internal temperature of the wine cooler is

controlled by a thermostat. There are four settings MIN, NORMAL, MAX and SUPER.

2. Before connecting the wine cooler to the mains socket, make sure that the thermostat control dial, is set to MAX. Connect the mains cable to the mains socket.

3. After the wine cooler has been on for 20 minutes adjust the thermostat control dial to NORMAL. This is the recommended setting when operating at normal room temperature (between 16C and 32C).

4. The wine cooler may not operate at the correct temperature if it is in a particularly hot or a particularly cold room, or if you open the door often.

5. If you are concerned that the wine cooler is not being kept cold enough and wish to check the temperature you will need a special fridge/ freezer thermometer. It is available from most supermarkets and hardware shops.

Place the thermometer on the shelf of the wine cooler, where it can be read easily. Leave overnight, the temperature in the wine cooler should be between 5C and 20C depending on the type of wine.

Stacking.the.Wine.Bottles Please follow the loading method in the picture for storing those 16 bottles of wine. There is a shelf in the middle and a bottle rack at the bottom of the wine cooler.

Max Capacity : 16 bottles

In the MIN position the wine cooler will not operate, but the power supply remains connected.

Noises.Inside.the.Wine.Cooler You may notice that your wine cooler makes some unusual noises. These noises are perfectly normal, and are caused by the circulation of the refrigerant liquid in the cooling system. It has become more pronounced since the introduction of CFC free gases. This is not a fault and will not affect the performance of your wine cooler.

This is the compressor motor working, as it pumps the refrigerant around the system.

Storing.Wine.in.Your.Wine.Cooler One benefit of your new wine cooler is that you can simulate the conditions of a wine cellar.

By using a wine cooler thermometer you can ensure a constant temperature of around 5-20C, which is ideal for storing wine. Make sure that the bottles are lying on their sides. This ensures that the wine inside is in contact with the cork, which stops the cork drying out, shrinking, letting air in and spoiling the wine. After a bottle has been opened, the wine comes into contact with air which will start to oxidise the wine. This generally occurs on the wines contact surface, leaving the remaining wine in good condition. By leaving your bottle standing, you minimise the surface area of the wine which is in contact with air.

If youre serving white, rose or sparkling wine, chill it lightly for at least two hours in the wine cooler before serving. Most reds should be served at room temperature, or in the case of lighter reds like Beaujolais, very slightly chilled.

Opened wine will remain in good condition for up to two days (for delicate whites), or three days (for rich reds), as long as the bottle is resealed and stored in your wine cooler. Special stoppers that keep sparkling wine and champagne bubbling for one or two days after opening can be bought at most good wine shops. When storing leftover wine, attempt to minimise the oxidation process of the wine. You can use a vacuum which pumps out the air in the bottle leaving a semi-vacuum. The wine should last for about two weeks.

However, if it is a good quality wine and you intend to finish it within one week, all youll need to do is to replace the cork and leave it standing in your wine cooler.

Different wines are best kept at different temperatures. To choose the temperature at which to store your wines please consult the table below.

Serving.Temperatures Wine Type F C Rose Wine 48-54 9-12

White Wine 48-58 9-14 Sherry (Light) 48-58 9-14

Red Wine 57-68 13-20 Fortified Wine 57-68 13-20 Sherry (Dark) 57-68 13-20

Filling.Your.Wine.Cooler When filling your wine cooler the greater the amount of cans and bottles placed inside the wine cooler from room temperature, the longer it will take to cool them to the desired temperature. You may wish to temporarily turn the Thermostat Control Dial to a higher setting to speed up the cooling process. If you do this remember to return it to the previous setting once the drinks have reached the required temperature in order to conserve energy.

Space.Around.the.Wine.Cooler Ensure that 2 cm of free space is left at both sides and 3 cm at the rear of the wine cooler. This will allow cold air to circulate around the wine cooler and improve the efficiency of the cooling process.

Keep.the.Door.Closed To prevent cold air escaping, limit the number of times your open the door.

Cleaning

Cleaning.the.Inside.of.the.Wine.Cooler There is usually no need to defrost the wine cooler as any ice that is deposited on the back wall will defrost automatically.

1. Before cleaning the wine cooler always switch off and disconnect the mains supply.

2. Remove all the shelves and detachable accessories and wash in warm soapy water, rinse and dry thoroughly.

3. If any ice has been deposited on the rear wall, leave the door open and wait until it begins to thaw. As the solid frost loosen, prize it away with a plastic scraper and remove. Never use metal or sharp instruments to remove the ice deposit.

4. You should clean the interior of the wine cooler with a weak solution of bicarbonate of soda.

5. Check that the drain outlet at the rear wall of the wine cooler compartment is clear of debris as this will affect the automatic defrosting.

6. Rinse the wine cooler with warm water using a clean wrung-out sponge or cloth. Then, wipe it dry before replacing the shelves and accessories.

7. Plug in and switch on the mains supply.

Cleaning.the.Outside.of.the.Wine.Cooler Use a damp cloth to clean the wine cooler exterior and a glass cleaner on the door. Make sure that the door is closed, to prevent polish getting on the magnetic door seal or inside.

Cleaning.Tips Condensation may appear on the outside of the wine cooler. This maybe due to a change in room temperature. Wipe off any moisture residue. If the problem continues, please contact a qualified technician for assistance.

Maintenance

Care.When.Handling Hold the wine cooler around its sides or base when moving it. Under no circumstances should it be lifted by holding the edges of the top surface.

Installation Dont cover or block the sides of your wine cooler.

Servicing This wine cooler should be serviced by a qualified technician and only genuine spare parts should be used. Under no circumstances should you attempt to repair the wine cooler yourself. Repairs carried out by inexperienced persons may cause injury or serious malfunctioning.

Switching.Off.for.Long.Periods.of.Time When the wine cooler is not in use for a long period of time, disconnect it from the mains supply, empty all wine and clean the wine cooler, leaving the door ajar to prevent unpleasant smells.

Disposal

Old units still have some residual value. An environmentally friendly method of disposal will ensure that valuable raw materials can be recovered and used again. The refrigerant and insulation materials used in the unit require special disposal procedures. Ensure that none of the pipes on the back of the unit are damaged prior to disposal.

Up to date information concerning options of disposing of your old unit and packaging from the new one can be obtained from your local council office.

If your unit is fitted with a lock, to prevent children being trapped inside, keep the key out of reach and not in the vicinity of the unit.

When disposing of an old unit break off any old locks or latches and remove the door as a safeguard.
