Water droplets or frost may begin to form at the back of the beverage cooler. This is

due to the compressor and is normal. The water droplets and/or frost will evaporate

and defrost over time.

3. Open the door and place the beverages into the cooler. The number of bottles that

can fit into the cooler will vary depending on their size.

The temperature of the beverage cooler can be controlled by turning the temperature knob.

This beverage cooler features four temperature modes.

• Cold – Warmest temperature setting

• Normal (recommended)

• Colder – Coldest temperature setting

• OFF – Cooler is not turned on.

Notes:

• Do not allow bottles to touch the back of the beverage cooler as this can restrict

the circulation of cool air.

• The temperature of the lower shelves in the beverage cooler and colder than

the upper shelves.

• Try to minimise the amount of time the beverage cooler’s door is left open.

The beverage cooler should be cleaned regularly. Ensure the beverage cooler is set to the

OFF temperature mode or is unplugged before cleaning.

• Remove any drinks and shelves inside the beverage cooler.

• Combine two tablespoons of baking soda with one litre of warm water. Using this

solution, clean the interior with a soft cloth or sponge.

• Leave the door open and allow the interior to dry.

Shelves

water and let dry.

Exterior

Wipe the outer surface of the cellar with a soft damp cloth with soapy water or detergent

then wipe dry.

Clean any dust behind and around the area of the beverage cooler. This will ensure optimal

cooling performance and minimise the amount of energy used

Check and clean any debris on the gasket of the door with a soft damp cloth and soapy

water or diluted detergent.

CLEANING & CARE

Note:

For hard-to-reach areas (for example, corners, narrow gaps), wipe with a soft brush.

Note:

Do not use harsh chemicals (for example, soaps, detergent, spray cleaner) as these

may cause odours in the interior and cause beverage contamination.

Notes:

• Do not rub or scratch the surface of the glass door.

• Do not use hard brushes, steel balls, wire brushes, harsh abrasives, organic

solvents (for example, alcohol, acetone, banana oil), boiling water, acids, or

alkaline to clean the beverage cooler.

Problem Reason/solution

Low voltage Ensure the cellar is plugged in and connected to

power.

No power Ensure the temperature knob is not turned to the OFF

mode.

Illuminating light does not shine

• Ensure the beverage cooler is connected to

power.

• Check if the light is damaged. If so, stop use

and contact help.Kogan.com for assistance.

The compressor is running

longer than usual.

• If there are too many beverages in the beverage

cooler, this may lead the compressor to run for

longer to reach the desired temperature.

• Frequent opening of the door causes the cool

air to escape from the beverage cooler. The

compressor will then continue to run.

• It is normal that the compressor operates for a

longer period when the ambient temperature is

higher (during summer, for example).

Loud noises

• Ensure the beverage cooler is placed on a flat

stable surface.

• Ensure the door and shelves are secure.

Condensation on the door seal

and exterior

• The beverage cooler may emit heat during

operation when the ambient temperature is

higher (during summer, for example). This is

caused by the radiation of the condenser and is

a normal phenomenon.

• Wipe any condensation with a soft cloth.

Abnormal sounds emitting from

the beverage cooler

• Refrigerant circulating within the beverage

cooler may produce sounds when in use. This is

normal.

• Buzzing noises may be generated from the

compressor especially when the beverage

cooler is being turned on or off.
