8. CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Before cleaning your appliance (something that should be done regularly), disconnect it by
removing the plug or by pulling the fuse on the circuit.
Before using your appliance for the first time and regularly after that, we recommend that you
clean the inside and outside (front, side and top) with warm mixed with a gentle cleaning
product. Rinse with clean water and allow drying before reconnecting. Do not use solvents or
abrasives.
When the appliance is switched on for the first time, there may be a residual odor. In that
case, runt the appliance empty for a few hours at the coldest possible temperature. The cold
will kill any odors.
In case of a power cut
Most power cuts are resolved within a short time. A power cut of 1 or 2 hours will not affect the
temperature in your cabinet. To protect your wines during a power cut, avoid opening the
door as much as possible. During very long power cuts, take the necessary measures to
protect your wine.
▪
If the appliance is disconnected or if there is a power cut, you must wait three to five
minutes before re- starting. If you try to re-start before this time, the compressor will only
re-start after 3 to 5 minutes (if the temperature requires).
▪
When switching on for the first time or following a prolonged shutdown, it is possible that
when re-starting, the temperatures selected and those displayed are not the same. This is
normal. It will take a few hours before they stabilize.
Vacation time
▪
Short vacations: leave the wine 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
turn off the appliance. Clean and dry the interior thoroughly. To prevent odor and mold
growth, leave the door open slightly: blocking it open if necessary.
Moving your wine cooler
▪ Remove all items.
▪ Securely tape down all loose items (shelves) inside your appliance.
▪ Turn the adjustable leg up to the base to avoid damage.
▪ Tape the door shut.
▪ Be sure the appliance stays secure in the upright position during transportation. Also
protect outside of appliance with a blanket, or similar item.
