BWK 1622

1. After installed wine cellar into cooler, please adjust limited block (a) close to cooler (e)
2. Please fix the 3 pcs screws through the limited block (a) screw hold into cooler (e), pic. 4

Reverse the door swing (Only BWK 1607, BWK 1618, and BWK 1651) Remarks:

The instruction is based on a unit with right door hinge installed already.

To reverse the door from right hinge to left hinge, you need to get ready 2 new spare parts: an upper left hinge, and a bottom left hinge. Both these left hinges plus accompanying screws are included inside the package with the wine cooler. All removed parts must be saved to do the door reinstallation, except those remarked with "Disused".

1 Open the door, and loosen the 2 screws ① and ② . (pic. 5-1).
2 Carefully remove the door from the upper right hinge ④ and prevent it from scratching. Take out the support rod ③ from the door hinge hole. (pic. 5-2).
3 Pull out the ⑥ decorating plastic plugs covering the reserved hinge screw holes at the front left corner of the cabinet and move them to the right side
4 Unscrew the upper right hinge (Disused) and bottom left hinge (Disused) from the cabinet. (pic. 5-3). Install the upper left hinge and bottom left hinge to the left side of the cabinet. Make sure that the screws are tightened. (pic. 5-4).
5 Put the door upside down and install it to the left hinges by following the opposite steps of taking down of the door as described above.
6 Cover the hinge screw holes on the right side with the ⑥ decorating plastic bolts

Working climate

• The appliance is designed for operating from SN/N climate (see below climate class chart). It is recommended to maintain the ambient around 22 - 25^ which helps the appliance working with low power consumption.

Climate Class A	Ambient Temp.
SN 10 - 32 °C
N 16 - 32 °C
ST 18 - 38 °C
T 18 - 43 °C

• If the ambient temperature is above or below the designed climate range, the performance of the unit may be affected. For example, the appliance operating in extreme cold or hot conditions may cause interior temperatures to fluctuate, and the temperature set 4 - 22^ may not be reached sometimes.

Wine storage

• The standard shelves are optimized for 750ml Bordeaux bottle storage. The maximum loaded bottles may vary subject to the different size or dimension of the wine bottles you store, as well as the shelves quantity pre-installed in the Wine cooler. (pic. 7)
• There are two designs for the pull-out shelves:
• The shelves are without telescopic rails, but with a plastic stopper on each sides of the shelf track to prevent bottles from falling.
• The shelves are with telescopic rails, which has stoppers by themselves.
• To prevent damaging the door gasket, make sure to have the door opened fully all the way before pulling the shelves out.
• Should the wine cooler be left empty for long periods we suggested that the appliance is unplugged, and after careful cleaning, leave the door ajar to allow air to circulate inside the cabinet in order to avoid possible condensation, mold or bad smell forming.

Energy saving tips

• The appliance should be located away from heat producing appliances, and away from direct sunlight.
• Ensure that the unit is adequately ventilated. Never cover air vents.
• Only open the door when necessary. Avoid leaving the door open for long periods or opening/closing the door frequently.

Note!

• The first time to use the appliance or to restart the appliance after having been shut off for a long time, you may find a few degrees variance between the set temperature and the displayed temperature. It is normal and everything of the appliance will be in the order after a few hours running.

Temperature display

• The temperature is displayed in digital, which is the best way to be read out. The digital is shown, as the set temperature when you are setting the temperature, and it will change to be the real temperature of the inside cabinet after 5 seconds without being touched.
• When the temperature probe is out of order, the display window will show with "HH" or "LL" instead of a digital figure while continuous buzz sound will be heard. In case of this happens, this appliance is considerably designed to keep periodical running of compressor and fans which helps to keep the coldness of the inside cabinet to protect your stored wines.

Warning

To avoid destroying your stored wines, it is strongly recommended to have the appliance repaired immediately, as the spare periodical running can not ensure the appliance to achieve the temperature you have set.

Selecting Fahrenheit or Celsius

Touch the button ^ CP ,you can interchange the Fahrenheit (^) and Celsius display (^)

For BWK1618 the interchange is done by at the same time pressing "+" and "-" for 5 seconds

Security lock

• Lock is an optional function. If your Wine cooler has such function, a key should be attached inside the packing of this Manual.
• Insert the key into the lock and turn it counter-clockwise to unlock the door. To lock it, please follow the reversed operation. Please save the key well.
