READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

BEFORE IT IS USED, THE APPLIANCE MUST BE PROPERLY INSTALLED AND LOCATED AS DESCRIBED IN THIS GUIDE.

▲DANGER: RISK OF CHILD ENTRAPMENT

Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems of the past. Junked or abandoned refrigeration products are still dangerous. . . even if they will sit for “just a few days.” If you are getting rid of your old appliance, please follow these instructions to help prevent accidents.

Before You Throw Away Your Old Refrigeration Product:

· Take off the doors.

- Leave the shelves in place so that children may not easily climb inside.

CFC DISPOSAL

Old refrigeration products have cooling systems that used CFCs (chlorofluorocarbons). CFCs are believed to harm stratospheric ozone.

If you are throwing away an old refrigeration product, make sure the CFC refrigerant is removed for proper disposal by a qualified servicer. If you intentionally release this CFC refrigerant you can be subject to fines and imprisonment under provisions of environmental legislation.

LIRE ET CONSERVER CES INSTRUCTIONS

AVANT D'ÊTRE UTILISÉ, L'APPAREIL MÉNAGER DOIT ÊTRE BIEN INSTALLÉ ET SE TROUVER À L'ENDROIT DÉCRIT DANS CE GUIDE.

▲DANGER! RISQUES POUR LES ENFANTS

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

The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a 3-prong (grounding) plug which mates with a standard 3-prong (grounding) wall outlet to minimize the possibility of electric shock hazard from this appliance.

Have the wall outlet and circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make sure the outlet is properly grounded.

Where a standard 2-prong wall outlet is encountered, it is your personal responsibility and obligation to have it replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong wall outlet.

The appliance should always be plugged into its own individual electrical outlet which has a voltage rating that matches the rating plate. This provides the best performance and also prevents overloading house wiring circuits which could cause a fire hazard from overheated wires.

Never unplug an appliance by pulling on the power cord. Always grip the plug firmly and pull straight out from the outlet.

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 roll over or damage the power cord.

USE OF ADAPTER PLUGS (Use of adapter plugs not permitted in Canada.)

Because of potential safety hazards under certain conditions, we strongly recommend against the use of an adapter plug.

However, if you must use an adapter, where local codes permit, a temporary connection may be made to a properly grounded 2-prong wall outlet by use of a UL-listed adapter available at most local hardware stores.

The larger slot in the adapter must be aligned with the larger slot in the wall outlet to provide proper polarity in the connection of the power cord.

When disconnecting the power cord from the adapter, always hold the adapter in place with one hand while pulling the power cord plug with the other hand. If this is not done, the adapter ground terminal is very likely to break with repeated use.

If the adapter ground terminal breaks, DO NOT USE the appliance until a proper ground has been established.

Attaching the adapter ground terminal to a wall outlet cover screw does not ground the appliance unless the cover screw is metal, and not insulated, and the wall outlet is grounded through the house wiring. You should have the circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make sure the outlet is properly grounded.

Use of an adapter plug will increase the clearance needed for the back of the appliance.

RACCORDEMENT ÉLECTRIQUE

Because of potential safety hazards under certain conditions, we strongly recommend against the use of an extension cord.

However, if you must use an extension cord, it is absolutely necessary that it be a UL-listed, 3-wire grounding type appliance extension cord having a grounding type plug and outlet and that the electrical rating of the cord be 15 amperes (minimum) and 120 volts.

Controls and Features
Beverage Center

Remove packaging	Before using, be sure all packing materials and tape have been removed. There is a shipping bracket below the handle.Remove the bracket and replace the three screws with the plug buttons.	If you are discarding an old refrigerator, remove the doors to reduce the danger of children being trapped inside.
Temperature control	The temperature range of the beverage center is from the mid thirties to the low fifties.As with any refrigeration product, there is a slight temperature variance at different locations within the cabinet.The coolest area will be in the upper part of the cabinet (33°-39°F).The cooler area will be in the middle section (39°-45°F).The lower part of the cabinet is the warmest section (44°-52°F).	To set the control, turn it to the middle thermostat setting.Once the beverage center is loaded, allow at least 48 hours before making any adjustments to the initial setting.
Interior light and switch	The interior light makes it easy to view your wine labels and enhances the display of your collection.	When the switch is in the OFF position, the light comes on only when the door is opened.
Pull-out racks	The bottom racks pull out so bottles can be easily added or removed.Do not put tall bottles on the bottom rack.They may prevent the door from closing.
Loading tips and suggestions	• The bottom rack may be removed for storing large items.• Remember to turn off the light when it is no longer needed.	• Do not allow children to climb, stand or hang on the beverage center shelves.They could seriously injure themselves and possibly cause damage to the beverage center.

Care and Cleaning

Beverage Center

	Unplug the beverage center before cleaning.
Condenser	Be sure that nothing obstructs the required air flow openings in the front of the cabinet.	For best performance, brush or vacuum lint and dirt from the condenser once a year. Unscrew the grille on the bottom front of the cabinet to access the condenser.
Cabinet	The painted cabinet can be washed with mild soap and water. Rinse thoroughly with clear water. Never use abrasive scouring powders.
Interior	Wash the inside with mild soap and water or baking soda and water.	Do not use an abrasive powder, solvent, polish cleaner or undiluted detergent.

Care and Cleaning

Beverage Center

Glass door	Use a glass cleaner or mild soap and water and a soft cloth to clean the glass door. Do not use any abrasive powders.
Door gasket	The vinyl gasket may be cleaned with mild soap and water, a baking soda solution or a mild scouring powder. Rinse well.
Light bulb replacement	Unplug the beverage center before replacing the light bulb.	The light shield is held in place by three screws. Remove the screws and light shield to remove the light bulb. Replace with the same type bulb—a 15-watt, intermediate base bulb.
In the event of a power failure	If the power fails, open the door as infrequently as possible to maintain the temperature.	Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.

6. Unscrew the light trigger from the bottom of the door. Insert the screws, that were packed with this Use and Care Guide, into the light trigger holes.

7. Before turning the door upside down, new holes will need to be drilled for the light trigger. Be careful not to drill down more than 1/2" or you may damage the door glass. Measure 12/4" from the right side and make a mark. Measure 3/4" over from the first mark and make a second mark. Measure 11/16" in from the front edge of the door and make a mark. See illustration. This is where the new holes will be drilled using a 5/32" drill bit. Install the light trigger.

8. Remove the top hinge pin using a 1/8" Allen wrench.

9. Turn the door upside down and place the door on the bottom hinge pin.

10. Install the top hinge pin into the door with the Allen wrench.

11. Open and close the door to test the door swing. If the door drags and does not close evenly, loosen the hinge screws and slip shims behind the hinge. If shims are already behind the hinges, readjust them. Tighten screws and test again.

12. Remove the old nameplate and stick the new Monogram nameplate on the door using the template included.
