Power Interruptions
• Occasionally there may be power interruptions due to
thunderstorms or other causes. Remove the power cord from AC out-
let when a power outage occurs. When power has been restored,
replug power cord to AC outlet.
Vacation and Moving Care
• For long vacations or absences, unplug the wine cooler and clean the
wine cellar and door gaskets according to "General cleaning" section.
Prop doors open, so air can circulate inside. When moving always
move the wine cellar vertically. Do not move with the unit lying down.
Possible damage to the sealed system could occur.
• Prepare a cleaning solution of 3-4 tablespoons of
baking soda mixed with warm water. Use sponge or
soft cloth, dampened with the cleaning solution, to
wipe down your wine cellar.
• Rinse with clean warm water and dry with a soft
cloth.
• Do not use harsh chemicals, abrasives, ammonia,
chlorine bleach,concentrated detergents, solvents or
metal scouring pads. SOME of these chemicals may
dissolve, damage and/or discolor your wine cellar.
• Clean door gaskets every three months according to
general instructions. Gaskets must be kept clean and
pliable to assure a proper seal.
• Petroleum jelly applied lightly on the hinge side of
gaskets will keep the gasket pliable and assure a
good seal.
