The temperature range of the wine chiller
is from the low forties to the mid sixties. This
appliance is not a refrigerator and does not
maintain temperatures like a refrigerator
(below 41°F ).
Do not install the wine chiller where the
temperature will go below 55°F (13°C) or
above 90°F (32°C).
The RED WINE setting will provide a temperature
of approximately 55ºF (13ºC), which is the optimum
storage temperature for red wine.
The WHITE WINE setting will provide a temperature
of approximately 45ºF (7ºC), which is the optimum
serving temperature for white wine.
As with any refrigeration-type product, there is
a slight temperature variance at different locations
within the cabinet.
Temperatures at the bottom of the cabinet will be
cooler than temperatures at the top of the cabinet.
Position your wine inventory accordingly (i.e. white
wines in the cooler zones and red in the warmer
zones).
To set the control, turn it to the RED WINE setting.
Once the bottles are loaded, allow at least 24 hours
before making any adjustments to the initial
setting.
NOTE: This unit is designed for storing and cooling
beverages. It is not intended for the storage of
perishable foods.
Suggested storing and serving temperatures
for wine
• If you plan to drink the wine in less than
2 months, use the appropriate red or white
setting based on the wine type.
• If you plan to store the wine for more than
2 months, use the storing and serving guide below.
Temperature Control
The top five full extension drawers each
hold eight bottles, two deep with the necks
alternating front to back or nine bottles,
alternating with necks pointing inward.
The bottom two full extension drawers hold
six bottles each and are loaded with necks facing
the rear. Tall bottles should not be loaded on the
bottom drawer because they may prevent the
door from closing.
Inserting Wine Bottles

Bottom two drawers
• The bottles on the top full extension drawer,
directly under the light, will be exposed to a
slightly higher temperature when the light
is on. Position your wines accordingly and
remember to turn off the light when it is no
longer needed.
• Keep wines that you plan to use for everyday
drinking and entertaining on the front half of the
full extension drawers where labels are
completely visible. Place wines for aging or
longer term storage in the rear.
• Do not allow children to climb, stand or hang on
the wine chiller full extension drawers. They
could seriously injure themselves and possibly
cause damage to the wine chiller.
