OPENING THE DOORS
While empty the cabinet is prone to tipping due to the weight of the door when
opened. Make sure the entire cabinet is supported when opening the door.
MOVING THE CABINET
Once the cabinet is fully assembled it is OK to tip the wine cabinet forward,
backwards or on its side in order to get it through a doorway. However, you should
NEVER PUSH, PULL OR LIFT the cabinet by its doors.
If you need to remove the door(s) to get the cabinet through a doorway, simply
remove the top hinge at the top corner(s) of the cabinet (three screws) and lift the
door straight up until it slides out of the bottom hinge. When setting the door down
on the floor, be careful to avoid damaging the hinge pin on the bottom of the door.
To reinstall the doors, follow these instructions in reverse.
LEVELING INSTRUCTIONS
The first step in setting up your wine cabinet is to make sure that it is level, with all the
leveling feet squarely on the floor and with the doors properly sealed against the
cabinet. The wine cabinet can be leveled by turning the leveling feet underneath
the cabinet. You can extend the feet of the cabinet by turning the feet CLOCKWISE
(assuming you are looking down from the top of the cabinet.)
 Begin with corner feet touching the floor and center feet (if any) raised.
 If the cabinet is resting on plush carpet, place a carpet board under the
cabinet so that all the leveling feet will remain on the same plane over time.
 Side to Side – Place a level on the top of the cabinet (not the door) parallel to
the door. Raise or lower either side of the cabinet by rotating the feet by hand.
On larger cabinets with six leveling feet, use the four corner feet only for
leveling purposes. After leveling, lower the center leveling feet to the floor.
 Front to Back – place a level on top of the cabinet (not the door)
perpendicular to the door, and follow the same procedure.
 If cabinet is level, the lock should work freely without force. Also, the door(s)
should be even (within 1/4 inch) with the top edge of the cabinet.
Additionally, there should be no gaps between the rubber gasket on the door,
and the face of the cabinet.
