• Remove the exterior and interior packing, including protective material.

• Check if the components or accessories are completed and in good condition.

• 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. EXTERNAL HANDLE If the external handle is presented in the product, follow the below steps for assembly.26 Reversing the Door Swing of Your Wine Cooler This wine cooler has NO capability of either opening the door from the left or right side. IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS Do not store food in wine cooler, as interior temperature may not get cool enough to prevent spoilage. As a natural result of 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. Recommended Temperatures for chilling Wine Red wines: 15.5-18.5 C Dry/White Wines 10-15 C Sparkling Wines 7.2-9.5 C Rose Wines 9.5-10.5 C The above temperatures may fluctuate depending on whether or not the interior bulb is on or off of whether the bottles are located on the lower/middle or lower section.

This specification concerns the function of the electronic display for wine cellars. The image below shows the Candy version of the user interface. The user interface is formed by: - 4 buttons (On/Off, Programmes, Temperature °C and one side mechanical switch). - 1 white digital LCD - 4 white LEDs Function - On/Off: the appliance can be switched on or off with the “On/Off” button. Every time the appliance is switched on, the internal light will switch on as well. After 15 seconds, if the "light" button is set on off, the light will switch off, if it is set on, the light will stay on. At each switching on, the last set programme and

At the first start- up, the wine cellar will be set on "Red Wine" with a preset temperature of 16°C. - Programme: to select the cellar programme, press the programme button until reaching the required programme. Sequentially, the programmes that can be selected are: “Red Wine”, “White Wine”, “Champagne”, “Mix”. The LED corresponding to the programme will switch on at each programme change and the display will show the preset temperature (if the programme was selected for the first time) or the temperature set by the user (see table 1). The programme will start 5 seconds after the release of the button. - Temperature °C: to set the temperature just press the button “TEMP C°” after selecting the programme. The temperature will change according to the sequence (e.g. 7-8-9-10-11- 12-13-14-15-16-17-18-7-8-…). The temperature change will start 5 seconds after the release of the button. - Light button: pressing the light button, you switch the light on or off. -E1: Temperature probe problem The table for temperature range and preset temperatures for each programme is shown here below: PROGRAMME PRESET TEMPERATURES (Celsius) TEMPERATURE RANGE

Shelves Shelf is chrome plated or wooden wine rack. 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 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 During long absences, remove all the bottles; unplug your wine cooler, clean your wine cooler, and leave the door open slightly to avoid possible formation of condensation, mold, or odors.

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.
