Feature Description • Wine-Mate split cooling systems VINO2500-6500SSR are designed and used to provide a cold temperature between 50~65 °F for a properly insulated wine room at a normal environment. • The wine room will maintain humidity of 50~70% RH even when the environment becomes dry and humid. These temperatures and humilities are optimized for long term storage of wine. • SSR units consist of a condensing unit and an evaporator unit, and they are connected by a liquid line and

Installer’s Instruction Federal law requires that WINE-MATE split cooling systems be installed by an EPA certified refrigeration technician. WINE-MATE split system is shipped as components and is ready for use only after a certified refrigeration technician has properly installed, charged and tested the system. Proper installation is critical. Vinotemp can only warrant the quality of the components. The installation and proper operation of the system must be warranted by the installer

• Supply and return air flow from the evaporator unit shall be unobstructed for at least 1 foot. • There is a gravity drain line so that it can not be installed above the evaporator unit. Otherwise a condensation pump must be used. 3. Air Sensor • The air sensor can be located in the wine room or the return air area, but not the supply air area. 4.

Temperature Control & Humidity Adjustment 1. Temperature Setting • Set the temperature at 55 °F for the optimum aging of wine • On initial start-up, the time required to reach the desired temperature will vary, depending on the quantity of bottles, temperature setting and surrounding temperature. • Allow 24 hours to stabilize the temperature for each new temperature setting operation 2. Use of the VTSTAT controller NOTE: Use the dial number for “Medium Temp” Fig. 3.1 V

2) Alarm Signals 2.1 Code Description 2.2 Alarm Recovery Probe alarms P1”, start a few seconds after the fault in the related probe; they automatically stop a few seconds after the probe restarts normal operation. Check connections before replacing the probe. Temperature alarms “HA”, “LA” automatically stops as soon as the temperature returns to normal value. Alarm “CA” (with i1F=PAL) recovers only by switching off and on the instrument. 3) Temperature Set-Point 3.1 How to

Care Guide In general, always unplug system or disconnect power while doing care. 1. Coil Cleaning • Clean the condenser coil regularly. Coil may need to be cleaned at least every 6 months. • Unplug the system or disconnect power. • Use a vacuum cleaner with an extended attachment to clean the coil when it is dusty or dirty. • Plug cooling system or reconnect power. 2. Moisture Removing • Remove the extra condensate if it is accumulated in the wine cellar at high ambien
