A note on thermoelectric cooling
This EdgeStar wine cooler uses a thermoelectric Peltier unit to
provide environmentally-friendly, CFC-free cooling. In
addition to energy efficiency, and the previously-mentioned
environmental-friendliness, thermoelectric cooling is very
quiet, making it ideal for homes and offices.
While thermoelectric cooling offers many benefits, the
cooling performance of thermoelectric units tends to
strongly correlate to the environment in which the units are
located. In other words- the cooler the environment, the
better the cooling perfromance of the wine cooler.
In light of the above, it is helpful to note that this wine cooler
was designed for use in a “room temperature” environment
(i.e., with ambient temperatures in the mid-70’s).
Please note that this appliance is a wine cooler- not a refrig-
erator. If you feel that the wine cooler is not cold enough, we
suggest making sure the unit is on its lowest setting, giving
the unit at least 24 hours to cool, and making sure the unit is
not exposed to direct sunlight or excessive heat.
Temperature range
The upper zone has a temperature range of 45°-54° (F) under
ideal conditions (see Notes on thermoelectric cooling for
more info). This zone is ideal for white wines. The lower zone
has a temperature range of 54°-64° (F) under ideal conditions
and is ideal for red wine. As detailed above, you can set your
desired temperatures using the control panel.
For your reference, many wine experts suggest that 55°F is an
ideal temperature for storage of most varieties of wine.
However, the ideal drinking temperatures for most wines
differ. We suggest you do a little research to determine at
what temperatures you most enjoy your favorite wines, but
we suggest temperatures in the low 50’s for white wines and
“room” temperatures (or slightly cooler) for red wines.
Power and controls
Once your wine cooler is completely unpacked and set up,
you can plug it in and begin using it.
Operation of the control panel is quite simple- use the “/\” and
“\/” buttons to select your desired temperature. “/\” means up
and “\/” means down. The buttons on the right correspond to
the “lower zone” and the lower temperature read-out. The
buttons on the left correspond to the “upper zone” and the
upper temperature read-out.
Once the display shows your desired temperature, stop
adjusting the temperature. The temperature you selected will
blink in the display- then the display will change to reflect the
actual temperature inside the unit. If you would like to review
your desired temperature again, simply press the “/\” or “\/”
button again.
To turn the light on or off, locate the light switch (inside the
unit on the upper right side. This switch toggles the LED light
on and off. There is one light switch that controls both zones.
