INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Before Using Your Wine Cooler
• Remove the exterior and interior packing,
including protective foam on door panels.
• Check to be sure the following parts are
included:
o 6 slide out shelves
o 2 wine rack
o 1 user manual
• Before connecting the appliance to the
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 of Your Wine Cooler
• Place your appliance on a floor that is
strong enough to support the appliance
when it is fully loaded. To level your
appliance, adjust the legs at the front of
the appliance.
• Allow 5 inches of space between the back
and sides of the appliance, which allows
the proper air circulation to cool the
compressor.
• Locate the appliance away from direct
sunlight and sources of heat (stove,
heater, radiator, etc.). Direct sunlight may
affect the acrylic coating and heat sources
may increase electrical consumption.
• Extreme cold ambient temperatures may
also cause the appliance not to perform
properly.
• Avoid locating the appliance in moist
areas. Too much moisture in the air will
cause frost to form quickly on the
evaporator.
• Plug the appliance into an exclusive
properly installed-grounded wall outlet.
Do not under any circumstances cut or
remove the third (ground) prong from the
power cord.
• Any questions concerning power and or
grounding should be directed toward a
certified electrician or an authorized
products service center.
Warning: Improper use of the grounded plug
can result in the risk of electrical shock. If the
power cord is damaged, have it replaced by
an authorized products service center.

condensation, in summer months or area of
high humidity, the glass door may build up
moisture on the outside. Just wipe it away.
OPERATING YOUR WINE COOLER
It is recommended you install the wine cooler
in a place where the ambient temperature is
between 22 -25 degree Celsius. If the ambient
temperature in above of below the
recommended temperature, conditions may
cause interior temperature to fluctuate.
If the interior light is left on, the temperature
inside the wine cooler will be higher.

CANDY MECHANICAL
This specification concerns the function of the
mechanical control for wine cellars. The image
below shows the Candy version of the user
interface.
The user interface is formed by:
- 1 knob for temperature setting
- 1 side button for the light
Function
Rotating the thermostat knob you can adjust
the temperature of the wine cellar to the
preset level.
SHELVES
Shelf is chrome plated. To accommodate
different size bottles, they can be moved up or
down by sliding them out the tracks first.
Shelves are designed to accommodate
maximum amount of bottles.
WINE RACK
There is an additional wine rack at bottom
section of the unit where you can store up to 6
wine bottles. This rack is removable for
cleaning purpose.
There is a 4 to 6 C variance between the top
and bottom shelves of the wine chiller.
Therefore, if you have set the wine chiller for
red wine only and you want to place a mix of
white and red wines, you should place the
white wine bottles on the bottom shelves and
the red wines on the top shelves.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Cleaning Your Wine Cooler
• Unplug the wine cooler and remove the
bottles.
• Wash the inside with a warm water and
baking soda solution. The solution should be
about 2 tablespoons of baking soda to a liter
of water.
• Wash the shelves and trays with a mild
detergent solution.
• The outside of the wine cooler should be
cleaned with mild detergent and warm
water.
• It may also be necessary to periodically wipe
the bottom part of the storage area, as the
29
wine cooler is designed to retain humidity,
and condensation may collect there.
Maintenance of Your Wine Cooler
Power Failure
Most power failures are corrected within a few
hours and should not affect the temperature
of your wine cooler 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 the proper steps to
protect your contents.
Vacation Time

unplug your wine cooler, clean your wine
cooler, and leave the door open slightly to

SCRAPPING OLD APPLIANCES
This appliance is marked according to the
European directive 2012/19/EU on Waste
Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE).
WEEE contains both polluting substances
(which can cause negative consequences for
the environment) and basic components
(which can be re-used). It is important to have
WEEE subjected to specific treatments, in
order to remove and dispose properly all
pollutants, and recover and recycle all
materials.
Individuals can play an important role in
ensuring that WEEE does not become an
environmental issue; it is essential to follow
some basic rules:
WEEE should not be treated as household
waste.
WEEE should be handed over to the relevant
collection points managed by the municipality
or by registered companies. In many countries,
for large WEEE, home collection could be
present.
In many countries, when you buy a new
appliance, the old one may be returned to the
retailer who has to collect it free of charge on a
one-to-one basis, as long as the equipment is
of equivalent type and has the same functions
as the supplied equipment.
Conformity
By placing the mark on this product, we
are confirming compliance to all relevant
European safety, health and environmental
requirements which are applicable in
legislation for this product.
ENERGY SAVING
For better energy saving we suggest:
• Installing the appliance away from heat
sources and not exposed to direct sunlight
and in a well-ventilated room.
• Avoid putting hot food into the refrigerator
to avoid increasing the internal temperature
and therefore causing continuous
functionalizing of the compressor.
• Do not excessively stuff foods so as to
ensure proper air circulation.
• Defrost the appliance in case there is ice to
facilitate the transfer of cold.
• In case of absence of electrical energy, it is
advisable to keep the refrigerator door
closed.
• Open or keep the doors of the appliance
open as little as possible.
• Avoid adjusting the setting to temperatures
too cold.
• Remove dust present on the rear of the
appliance.
