empty and the door is secured) and unscrew the levelling legs to make them 
longer. Screw them in tighter to make them shorter. 
Note: This cooler is not designed to operate with the levelling legs removed. 
 
Handle 
Some models of wine cooler are shipped with a towel bar-style handle. To 
install the handle, you will need a Phillips head screwdriver. 
Look at the left side of the door frame, facing outwards. There are two small 
holes in the frame. Take the handle and hold it up to the door frame so that 
the holes in the handle line up with the holes in the door frame. While holding 
the handle with one hand, insert a screw through the top hole in the handle 
and screw it into the top hole in the door frame. Then insert a screw in the 
bottom hole in the handle and screw it into the bottom hole in the door frame. 
Now insert the small “caps” included into the holes in the handle. 
Note: On some models, the handle can be installed in either side of the door 
frame. To install the handle in the right side of the door frame, use a small flat 
head screwdriver to pry the caps out of their holes and follow the above 
directions. 
Caution: If you do not feel comfortable making this installation yourself, have 
a qualified person do the installation for you. 
 
Bottle Capacity 
Bottle capacity listed for your wine cooler is an estimated maximum capacity 
based on standard 750 mL wine bottles. For any other size bottles, capacity 
will vary. 
 
Racks 
Please note that the racks for your cooler have a top and a bottom. If you are 
having trouble fitting the stated number of bottles in the cooler (provided you 
have standard wine bottles), try flipping over one or more racks. 
Also note that your wine cooler (depending upon the model) may have more 
“slots” for racks than the number of racks provided with the unit. 
 
Reversing the Door Swing 
Single door wine cooler models come with the hinges factory installed on the 
right side, so the door opens from the left side, swinging open to the right. The 
hinges can be reversed, to swing open from the right. To reverse the hinges, 
you need a flat head screwdriver and a Phillips head screwdriver. 
Please call service for further instructions about reversing the door swing. 
Note: dual door models do not feature reversible doors. 
Caution: If you do not feel comfortable reversing the hinges yourself, have a 
qualified person do it for you. 
 
Cleaning the Air Filter 
Your wine cooler has a washable air filter over the air intake in the back of the 
unit. Periodically, this air filter should be cleaned. You can remove it from the 
cooler and gently wash it in a solution of mild detergent and water. Make sure 
it is completely dry before reinstalling it over the air intake. 
Alternatively, for a quick cleaning, you can vacuum the air filter.
