▲ WARNING!
Use this appliance only for its intended purpose as described in this Owner's Manual.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should be followed, including the following:
This wine chiller must be properly installed and located in accordance with these instructions before it is used.
Do not allow children to climb, stand or hang on the shelves in the wine chiller. They could damage the wine chiller and seriously injure themselves.
Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.
- Keep fingers out of the "pinch point" areas; clearances between the doors and between the doors and cabinet are necessarily small. Be careful closing doors when children are in the area.
■ Unplug the wine chiller before cleaning and making repairs.
NOTE: We strongly recommend that any servicing be performed by a qualified individual.
- Do not store or install this appliance outdoors.
▲ DANGER! RISK OF CHILD ENTRAPMENT
PROPER DISPOSAL OF THE WINE CHILLER
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 the instructions below 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
Your old refrigerator has a cooling system that used CFCs (chlorofluorocarbons). CFCs are believed to harm stratospheric ozone.
If you are throwing away your old refrigerator, 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.
USE OF EXTENSION CORDS
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 CSA certified, 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.
HOW TO CONNECT ELECTRICITY
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.
If you have only a standard 2-prong wall outlet, it is your personal responsibility and obligation to have it replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong wall outlet.
The wine chiller 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 your wine chiller by pulling on the power cord. Always grip 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 wine chiller away from the wall, be careful not to roll over or damage the power cord.
USE OF ADAPTER PLUGS
Adapter plugs are not permitted in Canada.
READ AND FOLLOW THIS SAFETY INFORMATION CAREFULLY.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Installing the wine chiller.
Removing the Packaging
Before using the wine chiller, be sure all packing materials and tape have been removed, including any protective film covering the control and any film protecting the cabinet.
If you are discarding an old refrigeration product, remove the doors to reduce the danger of children being trapped inside.
Installation Guidelines
The wine chiller must be freestanding.
- Allow the following clearances for ease of installation, proper air circulation and electrical connections:
Each side 2" (51 mm)
Top 2" (51 mm)
Back 3" (51 mm)
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.
Do not install the wine chiller where the temperature will go below 55^ F ( 13^ C) or above 90^ F ( 32^ C).
- Install it on a level floor.
Do not install the wine chiller where it will be subject to direct sunlight, heat or moisture.
- Do not store or install this appliance outdoors.
The following models must be installed on the floor: GWS04, GCS04.

Leveling Legs
Adjustable legs at the front corners of the wine chiller should be set so the wine chiller is firmly positioned on the floor, with a 1/8" (3 mm) tilt to the back to help the door closure.
To adjust the leveling legs, turn the legs clockwise to raise the wine chiller, counterclockwise to lower it.
Interior Light (available on some Models)
You can turn the light ON or OFF by pushing the light switch located on the right side of the control panel housing. If the interior light is left on, the temperature will be higher.
Loading the Wine
As with any refrigeration product, there is a slight temperature variance at different locations within each compartment. The lower shelves provide a slightly cooler temperature than the upper shelves.
Setting the Temperature Control
Display Panel
When the Wine Chiller is Plugged In
After plugging in the wine chiller and making your temperature selection, allow the wine chiller to reach the set temperature before loading your wine. This may take up to 12 hours to completely stabilize.
After loading the wine, you may notice a rise in the temperature. Allow adequate time for the temperature to return back to the set temperature. This may take up to 12 hours to completely stabilize.

Call for service if any of the above error messages show.
You should touch the temperature control panel softly as the panel is touch screen control. Please protect the touch control panel carefully to avoid scratching, keep far away from strong magnetic fields and high humidity, or it can cause wine cooler to not work properly.
Cleaning the Outside
IMPORTANT: Unplug the wine chiller before cleaning.
Keep the outside clean. The cabinet can be washed with mild soap and water. Rinse thoroughly with clear water.
Never use abrasive scouring powders.
Use a glass cleaner or mild soap and water and a soft cloth to clean the glass door. Do not use any abrasive powders.
Wipe the control panel with a damp cloth. Dry thoroughly. Do not use cleaning sprays, large amounts of soap and water, abrasives or sharp objects on the panel—they can damage it. Some paper towels can also scratch the control panel.
Do not wipe the wine chiller with a soiled dishcloth or towel. These may leave a residue that can erode the paint. Do not use scouring pads, powdered cleaners, bleach or cleaners containing bleach because these products can scratch and weaken the paint finish.
Stainless steel. Regularly clean and polish the stainless steel areas (on some models) with a commercially available stainless steel cleaner such as Gleem-it ^® to preserve and protect the fine finish. Gleem-it ^® is available at leading hardware stores. It is also available through our website, GEAppliances.ca, or call 1.888.261.3055. Order part number WX10X15.
Do not use appliance wax or polish on the stainless steel.
Protect the paint finish. The finish on the outside of the wine chiller is a high-quality, baked-on paint finish. With proper care, it will stay new-looking and rust-free for years. Apply a coat of kitchen/appliance wax when the wine chiller is new, and then at least twice a year.
Cleaning the Inside
IMPORTANT: Unplug the wine chiller before cleaning.
To clean the inner liner and racks, use a warm water and baking soda solution—about one tablespoon (15 mL) of baking soda to a quart (1 liter) of water. This both cleans and neutralizes odors. Rinse and wipe dry.
The vinyl door gasket may be cleaned with mild soap and water or a baking soda solution. Rinse well.
Do not use detergents, scouring powders, spray cleaners or other harsh chemicals to clean the interior.
Defrosting
Defrost whenever frost on the inside surfaces of the storage area becomes 1/8" (3 mm) thick.
Never use a heater of any kind, scraper or sharp instrument to remove frost as it may damage the wine chiller.
To defrost, unplug the wine chiller. Remove the contents and wipe inside surfaces and
racks with a clean towel. If frost does not come off easily, allow the frost to melt somewhat and wipe off.
After defrosting, make sure inside surfaces are dry; then return the contents to the wine chiller and set the temperature control to the desired setting.
In the Event of a Power Failure
If the power fails, open the door as infrequently as possible to maintain the temperature. A gradual rise in temperature should not have any adverse effect on the wine.
If it is extremely hot, you may want to unload the wine from the wine chiller and move the wine to a cooler location until power is restored.
When power is restored, the controls automatically are set to the Factory Setting 50°F (10°C). If needed, reset the controls to the desired setting.
Care and cleaning.
Vacation Time
■ Short vacations: Leave the Wine/ Beverage Cooler operating during vacations of less than three weeks.
- Long vacations: If the appliance will not be used for several months, remove
all items and unplug the power cord. Clean and dry the interior thoroughly. To prevent odor and mold growth, leave the door open slightly: blocking it open if necessary.
Preparing to Move
Unload the wine, then secure the racks and door by taping them in place to prevent damage.
Turn the adjustable leveling legs up to the base to avoid damage.
Be sure the wine chiller stays in an upright position during the move.
Energy Saving Tips
The Wine/Beverage Cooler should be located in the coolest area of the room, away from heat producing appliances, and out of the direct sunlight.
■ Try not to open the door too often, especially when the weather is wet or hot. Once you open the door, mind to close it as soon as possible.
This appliance is intended to be used exclusively for the storage wine.
■ Every now and then check if the appliance is sufficiently ventilated (adequate air circulation behind the appliance).
For wine storage appliances, please arrange the temperature following the instruction: SPARKLE: 41-45°F (5-7°C), WHITE: 46-54°F (8-12°C), RED: 55-65°F (13-18°C).
