LWC59B12_IB_Running Change_120822_Edits_Pauline.indd 4 22/08/2012 11:58 AM

Location

When selecting a position for your unit make sure the floor is flat and firm, and that the

room is well ventilated with an average room temperature of between 16°C and 32°C. Avoid

locating your unit near a heat source, e.g. a cooker, boiler or radiator. Avoid direct sunlight.

If you are placing your unit in an outbuilding such as a garage or annex ensure that the unit

is placed above the damp course, otherwise condensation will occur on the cabinet. Never

place the unit in a wall recess or into fitted cabinets or furniture.

When installing the unit, ensure that 5 inches of free space is left at both sides, 5 inches at

the rear and 100 mm at the top of the unit. This will allow cold air to circulate around the

wine cooler and improve the efficiency of the cooling process. The door can open to the

right or the left, depending on what better suits the location. Please ensure there is adequate

space for the door to fully open.

• If you want to have the door swing reversed, we recommend that you contact a

qualified technician. You should only try to reverse the door yourself if you believe

that you are qualified to do so.

• Ensure the unit is unplugged and empty.

• Adjust the two levelling feet to their highest position.

• To take the door off it is necessary to tilt the unit backwards. You should rest the

unit on something solid so that it will not slip during the door reversing process.

• All parts removed must be saved to reinstall the door.

• Do not lay the unit flat as this may damage the coolant system.

• We recommend that 2 people handle the unit during assembly.

1. Tilt the unit slightly towards the rear and

prop it securely. Two people are required

to tilt the unit during the door reversal

process.

Allow the unit to stand upright for at least 2 hours before connecting it to the

mains.

Reversing the Door Swing

Tools required: Phillips style screwdriver / Flat bladed screwdriver / Hexagonal spanner.

Levelling the Unit

To do this adjust the two levelling feet at the front of the

unit.

If the unit is not level, the door and magnetic seal

alignments will not be covered properly.

Cleaning Before Use

Wipe the inside of the unit with a weak solution of warm water and bicarbonate soda. Then

rinse with warm water using a ‘wrung-out’ sponge or cloth. Wash the shelves and trays with

a mild detergent solution. Wipe completely dry before replacing the shelves and bottle rack.

Clean the exterior of the unit with a damp cloth, using mild detergent and warm water.

If you require more information refer to the Cleaning section.

• Before Plugging in YOU MUST

Check that you have a socket which is compatible with the plug supplied with the

unit.

• Before Turning On!

Do not turn on until two hours after moving the unit. The coolant fluid needs time

to settle.

Before Using Your Unit

Before placing any wine in the unit, turn it on and wait for 24 hours, to make sure it is

working properly and to allow it time to fall to the correct temperature. Your unit should not

be overfilled.

Operation

Switching On Your Wine Cooler

1. The internal temperature of the wine cooler is

controlled by a thermostat. There are four settings

COLD, NORMAL, WARM and OFF.

2. Before connecting the wine cooler to the mains

socket, make sure that the thermostat control dial,

located at the front of the wine cooler is set to

COLD. Connect the mains cable to the mains socket

and switch on the mains.

3. After the wine cooler has been on for 20 minutes

adjust the thermostat control dial to NORMAL.

This is the recommended setting when operating

at normal room temperature (between 16°C and

32°C).

4. The wine cooler may not operate at the correct

temperature if it is in a particularly hot or a

particularly cold room, or if you open the door

often.

5. If you are concerned that the wine cooler is not

being kept cold enough and wish to check the

temperature you will need a special fridge/freezer

thermometer. You may also need a hygrometer to

check the humidity of your wine cooler. These are

available from most supermarkets and hardware

shops.

Place the thermometer and hygrometer on the

middle shelf of the wine cooler, where it can be

read easily. Leave overnight, the temperature in the

wine cooler should be between 5°C and 20°C and

the humidity in the wine cooler should be between

50%-80% RH depending on the type of wine.

OFF

In the OFF position the wine cooler will

not operate, but the power supply remains

connected.

LWC59B12_IB_Running Change_120822_Edits_Pauline.indd 11 22/08/2012 11:59 AM

Stacking the Wine Bottles

The shelf system has been designed so that a range of shelf heights can be selected. All the

shelves can be adjusted. There is also a bottle rack at the bottom of the wine cooler.

• Max Capacity : 59 bottles.

• There is a 4°C to 6°C variance between the top and bottom shelves of the unit.

Therefore, if you have set the wine cooler for red wine only and you want to place a

mix of white and red wines, you should place the white wine bottles on the bottom

shelves and the red wines on the top shelves.

The temperature inside the wine cooler

will be higher if the internal light is left on.

The Internal Light

The wine cooler has an internal light which can be left on

while the glass door is shut. Switch the ON/OFF button as

desired.

OFF

Noises Inside the Unit

You may notice that your unit makes some unusual noises. Most of these are perfectly normal,

but you should be aware of them!

These noises are caused by the circulation of the refrigerant liquid in the cooling system. It has

become more pronounced since the introduction of CFC free gases. This is not a fault and will

not affect the performance of your unit. This is the compressor motor working, as it pumps the

refrigerant around the system.

Storing Wine in Your Wine Cooler

One benefit of your new wine cooler is that you can simulate the conditions of a wine cellar.

By using a wine cooler thermometer you can ensure a constant temperature of around 5-20°C,

which is ideal for storing wine. Make sure that the bottles are lying on their sides. This ensures

that the wine inside is in contact with the cork, which stops the cork drying out, shrinking,

letting air in and spoiling the wine. After a bottle has been opened, the wine comes into contact

with air which will start to oxidise the wine. This generally occurs on the wine’s contact surface,

leaving the remaining wine in good condition. By leaving your bottle standing, you minimise

the surface area of the wine which is in contact with air.

If you’re serving white, rose or sparkling wine, chill it lightly for at least two hours in the wine

cooler before serving. Most reds should be served at room temperature, or in the case of lighter

reds like Beaujolais, very slightly chilled.

Opened wine will remain in good condition for up to two days (for delicate whites), or three

days (for rich reds), as long as the bottle is resealed and stored in your wine cooler. Special

stoppers that keep sparkling wine and champagne bubbling for one or two days after opening

can be bought at most good wine shops. When storing leftover wine, attempt to minimise the

oxidation process of the wine. You can use a ‘vacuum’ which pumps out the air in the bottle

leaving a semi-vacuum. The wine should last for about two weeks.

However, if it is a good quality wine and you intend to finish it within one week, all you’ll need

to do is to replace the cork and leave it standing in your wine cooler.

LWC59B12_IB_Running Change_120822_Edits_Pauline.indd 12 22/08/2012 11:59 AM

Different wines are best kept at different temperatures. To choose the temperature at which to

store your wines please consult the table below.

Serving Temperatures

Wine Type °F °C

Rose Wine 48-54 9-12

White Wine 48-58 9-14

Sherry (Light) 48-58 9-14

Red Wine 57-68 13-20

Fortified Wine 57-68 13-20

Sherry (Dark) 57-68 13-20

Filling Your Wine Cooler

When filling your wine cooler the greater the amount of cans and bottles placed inside the wine

cooler from room temperature, the longer it will take to cool them to the desired temperature.

You may wish to temporarily turn the Thermostat Control Dial to a higher setting to speed up

the cooling process. If you do this remember to return it to the previous setting once the drinks

have reached the required temperature in order to conserve energy.

Keep the Door Closed

To prevent cold air escaping, limit the number of times your open the door.

Cleaning

Cleaning the Inside of the Wine Cooler

There is usually no need to defrost the wine cooler as any ice that is deposited on the back wall

will defrost automatically.

1. Before cleaning the wine cooler always switch off and disconnect the mains supply.

2. Remove all the shelves and detachable accessories and wash in warm soapy water, rinse and

dry thoroughly.

3. If any ice has been deposited on the rear wall, leave the door open and wait until it begins

to thaw. As the solid frost loosen, prize it away with a plastic scraper and remove. Never use

metal or sharp instruments to remove the ice deposit.

4. You should clean the interior of the wine cooler with warm water and a weak solution of

bicarbonate of soda.

5. Check that the drain outlet at the rear wall of the wine cooler compartment is clear of debris

as this will affect the automatic defrosting.

6. Rinse the wine cooler with warm water using a clean ‘wrung-out’ sponge or cloth. Wash the

shelves and trays with mild detergent solution. Then, wipe everything dry before replacing

the shelves and accessories.

7. Plug in and switch on the mains supply.

8. It may be necessary to periodically wipe the bottom part of the storage area.

Cleaning the Outside of the Wine Cooler

Use a damp cloth to clean the wine cooler exterior and a glass cleaner on the door. Make sure

that the door is closed, to prevent polish getting on the magnetic door seal or inside.

Cleaning Tips

Condensation may appear on the outside of the wine cooler. This maybe due to a change in

room temperature. Wipe off any moisture residue. If the problem continues, please contact a

qualified technician for assistance.

LWC59B12_IB_Running Change_120822_Edits_Pauline.indd 14 22/08/2012 11:59 AM

Disposal

Old units still have some residual value. An environmentally friendly method of disposal will

ensure that valuable raw materials can be recovered and used again. The refrigerant and

insulation materials used in the unit require special disposal procedures. Ensure that none of the

pipes on the back of the unit are damaged prior to disposal.

Up to date information concerning options of disposing of your old unit and packaging from

the new one can be obtained from your local council office.
