Installation instructions
Installation instructions
Please follow the installation instructions below to ensure your appliance operates correctly.
Power supply
The appliance must be installed so that the plug is accessible.
To ensure that the appliance is not accidentally switched off, connect your Wine Chiller to its
own power point. Do not plug in any other appliance at this power point or use extension cords
and double adaptors, as the combined weight of both power cords can pull the double adaptor
from a wall outlet socket.
For power requirements, refer to the information on the serial plate located on the back of the
Wine Chiller.
Note:
It is essential that the appliance be properly grounded (earthed).
Positioning your Wine Chiller
Your Wine Chiller should not be located in direct sunlight or next to any heat-generating
appliance such as a cooktop, oven or dishwasher.
Ventilation requirements
Your Wine Chiller is designed for freestanding installation only. It is not designed for built-in
application.
To ensure adequate ventilation for your Wine Chiller, allow a minimum of 50mm of airspace on
each side of the cabinet, and 50mm at the rear.
Levelling your Wine Chiller
It is important that all four corners of the Wine Chiller base are supported firmly on the floor to
eliminate any cabinet movement.
Installing the appliance on a soft, uneven or unlevelled floor may result in twisting of the cabinet
and poor sealing of the door.
1
Before moving your Wine Chiller into its position, ensure that the adjustable front feet are fully
retracted by turning them anti-clockwise, i.e. towards the right of the cabinet.
2
Position your Wine Chiller.
3
Turn the adjustable feet clockwise, i.e. to the left, to lower the adjustable front feet.
4
Raise the front of the appliance until it is stable and the door starts to self-close from an
open position.
5
The front levelling foot on the hinge side should take the majority of the weight of the cabinet
and the cabinet should be stable, i.e. cabinet should not rock or wobble.
