Frequently Asked Questions - NCH250SS01 NewAir

What is the temperature range of the NewAir NCH250SS01 wine cellar?

The adjustable temperature range is 52 to 74 °F (11 to 23 °C). The room ambient temperature should be between 50 and 77 °F for optimal operation.

How do I adjust the temperature on the unit?

Use the + and - touch buttons on the control panel to increase or decrease the temperature by 1 °F increments. The LED display shows the actual air temperature.

What should I do if the wine cellar has a plastic smell?

Wash the interior with mild detergent and warm water, without wetting the wood. Leave the door open to air out. If the smell persists, place a dish of baking soda or crumpled newspapers inside overnight, then let the unit run for a full day.

How do I season the cedar shelves before use?

Add distilled water to the humidity reservoir (or a wet sponge) and leave it in the closed cellar until the relative humidity reaches 5% higher than your target level. This may take up to 3 days. Do not open the door unnecessarily.

The unit makes gurgling or clicking noises, is that normal?

Yes, these noises are normal. The gurgling comes from refrigerant gas circulation, and the cracking/clicking are due to gas contraction/expansion. Fan noise is also normal.

How do I clean the interior of the wine cellar?

Unplug the unit, remove its contents and shelves. Clean the interior with a solution of warm water and baking soda (2 tablespoons per liter of water). The exterior can be cleaned with mild detergent. The water reservoir should be cleaned with warm water.

Can I store food in this wine cellar?

No, this unit is not intended for food storage. It is designed for storing cigars (humidor) or wine bottles under controlled conditions.

What should I do if the interior light does not work?

The control panel may be defective. Contact NewAir customer service at [e-mail] or 1-855-963-9247 for assistance.

The unit vibrates or is noisy, what should I check?

ASSEMBLY & INSTALLATION

Before using your cigar humidor, complete the following steps:

• Remove all exterior and interior packaging

• Make sure the following parts are included:

• 3 wood shelves
  ○ 2 keys

• 1 moisture container
• 1 instruction manual

Before operating your cigar humidor for the first time, follow these steps:

1. Clean the interior surface with lukewarm water using a soft cloth.
2. Place your appliance on a flat surface strong enough to support the appliance when it is fully loaded. To level your humidor, adjust the front legs at the bottom of the appliance.
3. Ensure the cabinet is located away from direct sunlight and sources of heat (i.e.: stove, heater, radiator, etc.). Direct sunlight may affect its acrylic coating. Extreme cold or hot ambient room temperatures may also cause the appliance to not perform properly and/or increase electrical consumption.
4. The appliance is intended for indoor use only.

CAUTION: Please keep the cabinet away from combustible materials or substances.

Grounding instructions:

The cigar humidor must be grounded in case of wire leakage. Grounding reduces the risk of electrical shock. The cigar humidor is equipped with a power cord having a grounding wire and plug. The cigar humidor plug must be plugged into a properly affixed and grounded electrical outlet.

Improper use of the grounding plug can result in the risk of electric shock. Consult a qualified electrician or service person if the grounding instructions are not completely understood.

INSTALLING YOUR CIGAR HUMIDOR

Unpack and remove all the protection and adhesive strips from the packaging around and inside the cigar humidor.

The cigar humidor must be positioned such that the plug is accessible. The cigar humidor should be installed in a suitable place where the compressor will not be subject to physical contact.

Leveling your cigar humidor: cigar humidor must be leveled BEFORE loading your cigar.

Your cigar humidor is equipped with 4 adjustable feet to facilitate easy leveling. It is recommended that you tighten the back feet to the maximum and adjust the front feet to level the cigar humidor.

FACTORY ODOR REMOVAL

Wash the interior of the humidor with a mild detergent and warm water. Make sure to not get the wood wet. Leave the door open and allow it to air dry thoroughly. If a “plastic” smell persists, place a dish of baking soda in the unit or stuff the humidor with newspapers overnight. When finished, let the unit run a full day to complete the airing out process.

If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a qualified person in order to avoid electrical hazard.

DRAWER SET-UP

The drawers and shelves included with this humidor are designed to sit flush with the front edge of the cabinet. This will allow air to circulate freely through the unit. When inserting the drawers and shelves, avoid pushing them all the way against the rear wall of the cabinet.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

It is recommended that you setup the cigar cabinet in a place where the ambient temperature is between 50 - 77°F. If the ambient temperature is above or below recommended temperatures, the performance of the unit may be affected. For example, placing in extreme cold or hot conditions may cause the interior temperature to fluctuate or not reach the appliance's range.

The temperature may fluctuate depending on whether the interior light is on or off or how cigars are placed on the upper, middle, or lower section.

It is best to season your wood shelves and drawers before adding your cigars so that the wood is at an ideal relative humidity (RH) and does not absorb humidity from your cigars. To season your new cigar humidor:

1. Add distilled water to the included moisture container or add a sponge that is damp with distilled water. Make sure that the water is not touching the wood directly or this may damage the wood.
2. Allow the moisture container, or other humidity-adding device, to sit in the humidor until it reaches a relative humidity of 5% higher than your preferred level. This process may take as long as 3 days but is the best way to ensure your cigars stay optimal.
3. Once the humidor reaches this mark, you can begin to add cigars. You may add a few at a time in order to monitor the RH and make sure it stays at a level you want it at. If it drops too much, you can use the same seasoning method to bring it back up.

NOTE: During this entire process, it is recommended to not open the door unnecessarily, as this lets moisture escape and can delay the process.

Plug in and switch on the appliance by pressing on the power button for 3 seconds.

When you use the cigar humidor for the first time (or restart the cigar humidor after having it shut off for a long time), there will be a few degrees variance between the temperature you have selected and the one indicated on the LED readout. This is normal and it is due to the length of the activation time. Once the cigar humidor is running for a few hours everything will stabilize.

IMPORTANT: If the unit is unplugged, power is lost or turned off, wait 3 to 5 minutes before restarting the unit. The cigar humidor will not start if you attempt to restart before this time delay.

Operating Noises

To reach the desired temperature settings, our cigar humidor, like all cigar humidors operating with compressors and fans, may produce the following types of noises. These noises are normal and may occur as follows:

• Gurgling sound - caused by the refrigerant flowing through the appliance's coils.
• Cracking/popping sounds - resulting from the contraction and expansion of the refrigerant gas to produce cold.
• Fan operating sound - to circulate the air within the cigar humidor.

HOW TO SET TEMPERATURE:

There are four touch-buttons on the control panel:

increases or decreases the set temperature by 1 degree (temp range is 52 - 74°F).

button turns on or off the interior light.

selects temperature display setting Fahrenheit or Celsius.

Note: This product is designed to operate in rooms with an ambient temperature range of 50 - 77°F.

CIGAR STORAGE GUIDE

• The ideal temperature for storing cigars is between 65^ and 73^ .
• The ideal relative humidity (RH) for storing cigars is between 65% and 75% RH. To properly maintain RH in this unit, you will need to include a method of adding humidity. For your convenience, a moisture container is included.
• To add humidity to the unit using the included moisture container, simply fill the container with distilled water or a damp sponge wet with distilled water and place it back in the unit. Please note this water should be changed after reaching the desired humidity and refilled when used again.
• Keep cigars out of direct sunlight to avoid exposure to damaging UV rays.
• It is recommended to keep cigars in their original boxes and packaging as long as possible. Keep unwrapped cigars separate in your humidor to avoid unwanted mingling of flavors.
• Check cigars regularly for signs of tobacco beetles and mold, and take preventative measures if necessary.
• Properly stored cigars can improve with age for as long as 5-10 years, and can be kept even longer in ideal conditions.
