Cabinet installation is a very simple process, spending a small amount of time fine tuning the cabinet will
ensure cabinet aesthetics and longevity.
These are the simple steps for installation (further explained on the indicated pages):
1. Inspect the cabinet (below)
2. Unpack the cabinet and clean up the debris
3. Place the cabinet in a suitable location in your home (below)
4. Level the cabinet (pg. 4)
5. On QT Series, remove the protective panel from the rear of the cabinet (do not remove the panel on
front venting cabinets)
6. Adjust the doors (pg. 7)
7. Attach the door handles
CABINET INSTALLATION
When the cabinet arrives, inspect the unit to make sure that no damage has occurred during shipping.
Look for any marks, tears or damage, which might affect the cabinet. If you notice any damage, remove the
packaging and see if the unit was affected in any way.
On QT Series cabinets, specifically inspect the compressor pan, located at the bottom rear of the unit. Note if
any oil has leaked into the pan.
In the event that damage has occurred, you need to identify the extent of the damage on the shipping
document. This document will then be used to file a freight claim. Immediately notify Vinothèque or your
distributor to file a claim. You can accept or deny the delivery if the unit is damaged. Any damage must be
noted by yourself and the installation crew on the shipping receipt, which you both will be required to sign.
Based on the extent of the damage, the cabinet may be returned to the factory and repaired or replaced. For
minor scratches, the moving company will send a qualified furniture repair company representative for touch-
up work.
There are many considerations that have to be made in order to receive the best performance results from
your Vinothèque cabinet:
Weight
You will need to take into account that the weight of the unit fully loaded with wine bottles can be
substantial, as bottles weigh roughly 3 pounds each.
Ambient temperature
The cooling system in the cabinet has the ability to cool a maximum of 30°F below the ambient temperature
in the room. Since the optimal temperature for wine storage is 55°F, make sure that the temperature of the
room in which the cabinet will be placed does not exceed 85°F.
On the other hand, to ensure a consistent temperature, make sure the room doesn’t dip below 55°F.
