•  Remove the exterior and interior packing. 

•  Check to be sure you have all of the following parts: 

o  Wooden / Metal Shelves (Number of pieces are subject to the model) 
o  Instruction Manual  

•  Before connecting the appliance to the power source, let it stand upright 

for approximately 4 hours. This will reduce the possibility of a malfunction 
in the cooling system from handling during transportation. 

•  Clean the interior surface with lukewarm water using a soft cloth and 

leave doors open to air out BEFORE plugging in your appliance. 

 

•  This appliance is designed to be free standing only, and should not be 

recessed or built-in. 

•  Leave at least 8" space from back wall. 

•  Leave at least 6" space for each side. 

•  Place your appliance on a floor that is strong enough to support it even 

when it is fully loaded.  

•  Floor should be even. 

•  Locate the appliance away from direct sunlight and sources of heat (stove, 

heater, radiator, etc.) Direct sunlight may affect the coating and heat 
sources may increase electrical consumption. Extreme cold ambient 
temperatures may also prohibit the unit from performing properly. 

•  Avoid locating the unit in moist areas and keep cord and plug dry. 

•  Designed for indoor use only. Do not install in a garage or basement. 

•  Never put heavy articles on top of the unit. 

•  Plug the appliance into an exclusive, properly installed-grounded 110 volt 

wall outlet. Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the third 
(ground) prong from the power cord.  

•  Any questions concerning power and/or grounding should be directed 

toward a certified electrician or a service center authorized by Vinotemp.
