Frequently Asked Questions - SWBC250D Avanti

Why is my Avanti SWBC250D not turning on?

Check that the unit is plugged into a working 115V outlet. Ensure the circuit breaker is not tripped or a fuse blown. If the control panel is locked, press and hold the Ⓐ and ⬇ buttons simultaneously for 3 seconds until you hear a beep.

What should I do if the wine chiller is not cold enough?

Verify the temperature setting; the wine zone should be between 8-18°C (46-64°F). Ensure the ambient temperature is within recommended range (23-26°C). Avoid frequent door openings and ensure the door is fully closed. Check that the unit has proper clearance (5 inches from back and sides).

How do I change the temperature display from Fahrenheit to Celsius?

Push the button labeled with the temperature symbol on the control panel to toggle between °F and °C. The selected unit will appear in white on the blue LCD display.

The interior light in the wine chiller doesn't work. What could be wrong?

Make sure the unit is plugged in and the circuit breaker is on. The light button must be pressed to turn on the interior light; it automatically turns off after 10 minutes. Press the light button again to reactivate.

Why is my Avanti SWBC250D making vibration noises?

Vibrations often indicate the unit is not level. Adjust the leveling legs at the bottom to stabilize the appliance on the floor. Ensure the floor is strong enough to support the fully loaded weight.

How do I clean the interior of my drink cooler?

Unplug the unit and remove all items and shelves. Wash inside surfaces with a solution of warm water and baking soda (2 tablespoons per quart of water). Use mild detergent for shelves. Avoid getting water on electrical parts. Rinse and dry with a soft cloth.

Can I use an extension cord with this appliance?

It is strongly recommended not to use an extension cord due to safety hazards. If absolutely necessary, use a UL/CUL-listed, 3-wire grounding type rated for 115V and at least 10 amps. However, direct connection to a wall outlet is safest.

How do I prepare the unit for moving?

Remove all bottles and items. Securely tape down shelves and other loose parts inside. Tape the doors shut. Protect the exterior with a blanket or similar padding to prevent damage during transport.

What is the warranty coverage for the Avanti SWBC250D?

Avanti provides a limited one-year warranty from the original purchase date. It covers defects in material or workmanship under normal use, including parts and labor. For rental or commercial use, warranty is 90 days. Units 3.5 cu.ft. or less must be brought to an authorized service center.

Where can I find replacement parts or service?

Call Avanti Products Customer Service at 800-220-5570 to order parts or schedule in-home repair. An authorized service center will provide expert repair. Keep your model and serial numbers (located on the rear of the unit) ready.

(2) Shelves (2) Shelves
Total (1) Instruction Manual

- Clean the interior surface with lukewarm water using a soft cloth.

Installation of Your Machine

• This Machine is designed to be free standing installation only, and should not be recessed or built-in (Fully recessed).
• Place your Machine on a surface that is strong enough to support it when it is fully loaded.
• Allow 5 inches of space between the back and sides of the appliance, which allows the proper air circulation to cool the heat sink.
• Locate the Machine 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 unit not to perform properly.
• This Machine uses superconductor refrigeration technology (no compressor) and is not designed for storage in hot areas like garages, warehouses or outdoors since it is designed to operate at a maximum of 30 degrees below the ambient temperature.
• Avoid locating the unit in moist areas.

• Plug the Machine 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 Avanti Products service center.

• After plugging the Machine into a wall outlet, allow the unit to cool down for 2-3 hours before placing any items in the compartment.
  Electrical Connection

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 Avanti Products service center.

This appliance should be properly grounded for your safety. The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a three-prong plug which mates with standard three prong wall outlets to minimize the possibility of electrical shock.

Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the third ground prong from the power cord supplied. For personal safety, this appliance must be properly grounded.

This appliance requires a standard 115 Volt AC / 60Hz electrical ground outlet with three-prong. Have the wall outlet and circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make sure the outlet is properly grounded. When a standard 2-prong wall outlet is encountered, it is your responsibility and obligation to have it replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong wall outlet.

The cord should be secured behind the appliance and not left exposed or dangling to prevent accidental injury.

The appliance should always be plugged into its own individual electrical outlet which has a voltage rating that matches the rating label on the appliance. This provides the best performance and also prevent overloading house wiring circuits that could cause a fire hazard from overheated. Never unplug the appliance by pulling the power cord. Always grip the plug firmly and pull straight out from the receptacle. Repair or replace immediately all power cords that have become frayed or otherwise damaged. Do not use a cord that shows cracks or abrasion damage along its length or at either end. When moving the appliance, be careful not to damage the power cord.

Extension Cord

Because of potential safety hazards under certain conditions, it is strongly recommended that you do not use an extension cord with this appliance. However, if you must use an extension cord it is absolutely necessary that it be a UL/CUL-Listed, 3-wire grounding type appliance extension cord having a grounding type plug and outlet and that the electrical rating of the cord be 115 volts and at least 10 amperes.

Upper Zone - Wine Chiller

It is recommended you install the Machine in a place where the ambient temperature is between 23^-26^/72^-78^ . If the ambient temperature is above or below recommended temperatures, the performance of the unit may be affected. For example, placing your unit in extreme cold or hot conditions may cause interior temperatures to fluctuate. The range of 8^-18^/46^-65^ may not be reached.

Recommended Temperatures for Chilling Wine.

Red Wines	14^ - 18^ C	57 - 65^ F
Dry/White Wines	9^ - 14^ C	49 - 58^ F
Rose Wines	10^ - 11^ C	51 - 53^ F
Sparkling Wines	5^ - 9^ C	40 - 49^ F

Temperature Ranges For Your Wine Chiller

Temperature Range 8 - 18°C 46 - 64°F

CONTROL PANEL

You can select temperature display setting from Fahrenheit to Celsius degree by pushing this button. Fahrenheit or Celsius degrees indicator will appear in white color in the LCD temperature display window with blue background.

SETTING THE TEMPERATURE CONTROL

Your Wine Cellar has been equipped with an "automatic" control panel lock, that will activate 12 seconds after the last time a button has been touched.
Push the Ⓐ and ⬇ button simultaneously for 3 seconds to unlock the control panel. You will hear a "BEEP" sound to alert you that the control is now active.
You can set the temperature as you desire by pushing the Ⓐ or ▽ button on the control panel for each zone. The temperature that you desire to set will increase 1°F or 1°C if you push the Ⓐ button once, on the contrary the temperature will decrease 1°F or 1°C if you push the ▽ button once.
When you store mostly red wines, the temperature needs to be set at between 14° - 18°C (57° - 65°F). The indicator marked "RED" will light up in Red.
When you store mostly white wines, the temperature needs to be set at between 9^ - 14^ C ( 49^ - 58^ F). The indicator marked “WHITE” will light up in Blue.
When you store mostly sparkling wines, the temperature needs to be set at between 5^ - 9^ C ( 40^ - 49^ F). The indicator marked “WHITE” will light up in Blue.

NOTE:

- When you use the wine chiller for the first time or restart the wine chiller after having been shut off for a long time, there could be a few degrees variance between the temperature you select and the one indicated on the LED readout. This is normal and it is due to the length of the activation time. Once the wine chiller is running for a few hours everything will be back to normal.

Storage Capacity

Wine chiller: You can place 8 standard bottles in this wine chiller.

Many bottles may differ in size and dimensions. As such the actual number of bottles you may be able to store may vary. Bottle capacities are approximate maximums when storing traditional Bordeaux 750ml bottles and include bulk storage.

Interior Light

You can turn the interior light ON or OFF by pushing the button marked with the "Light" symbol. The light will be turned off automatically if it remains ON for 10 minutes. You have to push the button marked with the "Light" symbol #/9 again and the light will turn back on.

Lower Zone - Beverage Cooler

➢ Temperature Control

Setting the Temperature Control

• Your refrigerator has only one control for regulating the temperature. The temperature control is located on the upper right hand corner of the compartment.
• To control the internal temperature, adjust the control knob according to the ambient temperature or purpose of use.
• The first time you turn the unit on, set the temperature control to "HI".
• The range of the temperature control is from position "OFF" to "HI".

NOTE:

- Turning the temperature control to "OFF" position stops the cooling cycle but does not shut off the power to the appliance.

Interior Light

This refrigerator is provided with a LED light located on the upper right hand corner of the compartment. The light will be on when the door is opened and be off when the door is closed.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Cleaning Your Machine

• UNPLUG the Machine, and remove all items including shelves.
• Wash the inside surfaces with a warm water and baking soda solution. The solution should be about 2 tablespoons of baking soda to a quart of water.
• Wash the shelves with a mild detergent solution.
• Wring excess water out of the sponge or cloth when cleaning area of the controls, or any electrical parts.
• Wash the outside cabinet with warm water and mild liquid detergent. Rinse well and wipe dry with a clean soft cloth.

CAUTION

Failure to unplug the Machine could result in electrical shock or personal injury.

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 the proper steps to protect your contents.

Moving Your Machine

• Remove all bottles.
• Securely tape down all loose items (shelves) inside your appliance.
• Tape the door shut.
• Protect outside of appliance with a blanket, or similar item.

Energy Saving Tips

• The Machine should be located in the coolest area of the room, away from heat producing appliances, and out of the direct sunlight.
• One characteristic of superconductor units is the length of time it requires to recover from having the door opened and shut frequently. It may be necessary to wait longer for the temperature to return to its former level once the door has been opened for too long. This is normal for this type of unit.
