Installer’s Instruction Federal law requires that WINE-MATE ducted cooling systems be installed by an EPA certified refrigeration technician. WINE-MATE ducted system is shipped ready for use only after a certified refrigeration technician has properly installed 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. Installation of the system must be do

1. Location • Place the unit in a properly ventilated location. If it is not, heat exhausted by the condensing unit will build up and the cooling system will not operate properly. • Leave minimum 5 feet clearance for hot air exhaust and leave minimum 1 foot clearance for the fresh air intake. • Air flow from the cold air supply shall be unobstructed for at least 1 foot. • Cooling unit shall be elevated to avoid possible flooding and shaded from direct sun. It shall not be exposed to tem

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

2. The value of the set point will be displayed and the “°C” or “°F” LED starts blinking; 3. To change the Set value, push the o or n arrows within 10s. 4. To memorize the new set point value, push the SET key again or wait 10s. 4) Humidity Adjustment The parameter Fon is used to adjust the humidity in the wine cabinet. The higher value of Fon, the higher relative humidity will be. 1. Press the Set + keys for 3 sec until the “°C” or “°F” LED starts blinking. 2. Release the keys, then

Service Guide 1. Refrigeration Piping and Charge • The subcooling at the condensing unit shall be around 10°F. The charge may be complete when there are no more bubbles forming in the sight glass. • The evaporator’s constant pressure expansion valve is set around 38- 40°F at factory. This pressure setting gives a dew point to maintain the humidity for storing wine. • The superheat at the evaporator unit shall be around 9-18°F under low and high load at 75°F ambient temperature. •

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
