10 Storage / Maintenance
Proper Storage
The wine keeper can accommodate more than 160
bottles (typical 750 ml size). There are thirteen (13)
upper racks that will hold ten (10) bottles each and
one lower display rack that will hold six (6) bottles.
Specially designed wine racks allow for proper
horizontal storage of the wine. The cork remains moist
which keeps air from entering the bottle.
Optional shelf kits may be purchased if you prefer to
have sliding shelves extend all the way to the bottom
of the cabinet.
Order kit # 5304469473 for 2 full size shelves.
Order kit # 5304469474 for 2 short shelves. (fits in the
two lowest positions in cabinet)
Your wine keeper can be set to maintain temperature
between 45 and 65º F. Although the storage and
serving temperature is a personal preference, the
general recommended temperature for chilling various
wines are listed in the chart below.
Maintaining Your Wine
Keeper
Periodic cleaning and proper maintenance will ensure
efficiency, top performance, and long life. The mainte-
nance intervals listed are based on normal conditions.
You may want to shorten the intervals if you have pets
or other special considerations.
Exterior Cleaning for Your Stainless Steel
Model
• Your stainless steel model may discolor when
exposed to chlorine gas, pool chemicals, salt
water, or cleaners with bleach.
• Keep your stainless unit looking new by cleaning
with a high quality, all-in-one stainless steel
cleaner/polish on a monthly basis. Frequent
cleaning will remove surface contamination that
could lead to rust. Some installations will require
cleaning on a weekly basis.
• DO NOT CLEAN WITH STEEL WOOL PADS.
• DO NOT USE CLEANERS THAT ARE NOT
SPECIFICALLY INTENDED FOR STAINLESS
STEEL (this includes glass, tile and counter
cleansers).
• If any surface discolors or rusting appears, clean
it quickly with Bon-Ami or Barkeepers Friend
Cleanser and a non-abrasive cloth. Always clean
in the direction of the grain. Always finish this
process with a high quality, all-in-one stainless
steel cleaner/polish to prevent further problems.
• USE OF ABRASIVE PADS SUCH AS
SCOTCHBRITE WILL CAUSE THE GRAINING
IN THE STAINLESS TO BECOME BLURRED.
• Rust that is allowed to linger can penetrate into
the surface of the stainless steel and become
impossible to remove.
CAUTION
• Stainless steel models exposed to chlorine
gas and moisture such as areas with spas or
swimming pools, may have some discoloration
of the stainless steel. Discoloration from
chlorine gas is normal. Follow exterior cleaning
instructions.
• NEVER USE CHLORIDE OR CLEANERS
CONTAINING BLEACH TO CLEAN STAINLESS
STEEL.
Red Wines 58-65 º F
Dry/White Wines 48-57 º F
Rose Wines 49-52 º F
Sparkling Wines 45-48 º F
Display Rack
The bottom rack in your wine keeper is designed for
storage as well as for display purposes. The unit holds
six (6) bottles in the display rack.
Stocking Recommendations
The wine racks allow for the proper horizontal storage
of wine. The bottles are properly positioned so that the
wine remains in contact with the cork to assure that
the cork does not become dry. White and sparkling
wines should be maintained on the top to middle racks
and red wine on the bottom racks.
Your wine keeper should be stocked beginning with
the bottom display rack at the back and working
forward staggering the bottles.
Subsequent racks should be stocked similarly, starting
with the back of each rack.
