LEVELING INFORMATION
1. Use a level to
confirm the unit is
level. Level should
be placed along top
edge and side edge
as shown.
2. If the unit is not level, adjust the legs on the corners of
the unit as necessary.
3. Confirm the unit is level after each adjustment and
repeat the previous steps until the unit is level.
INSTALLATION TIP
If the room floor is higher than the floor in the cutout
opening, adjust the rear legs to achieve a total unit rear
height of 1/8" (3 mm) less than the opening’s rear height.
Shorten the unit height in the front by adjusting the front
legs. This allows the unit to be gently tipped into the
opening. Readjust the front legs to level the unit after it is
correctly positioned in the opening.
INSTALLATION
1. Plug in the power/electrical cord.
2. Gently push the unit into position. Be careful not to
entangle the cord or water and drain lines, if
applicable.
3. Re-check the leveling, from front to back and side to
side. Make any necessary adjustments. The unit’s top
surface should be approximately 1/8" (3 mm) below
the countertop.
4. Install the anti-tip bracket.
5. Remove interior packing material and wipe out the
inside of the unit with a clean, water-dampened cloth.

Wine Guide
To most, wine is a delicious mystery. We purchase it,
uncork it, and savor its taste and beauty. But there is so
much more to true wine appreciation. Many secrets are
simply too good to keep bottled up.
Although there are no hard fast rules for matching wine to
food, observe some guidelines. Delicate dishes should be
accompanied by lighter more delicate wines. Full-avored
foods should be matched with fuller-bodied wines.
As a general rule, one should aim to ascend in avor and
quality of wines served.
Any step back in quality will be noticed. If a ne wine is
tasted prior to a lesser wine, many of the ne wines subtle
qualities may be missed.
Selecting the right wine for the right occasion can
sometimes be a seemingly awkward or dicult task for
the beginning wine enthusiast. We would therefore like to
present you with a few suggestions which may provide a
little more condence and enjoyment when choosing and
serving your wines.
When selecting wines, keep an open mind and do not be
afraid to be adventurous. Do not view the subject of wine so
seriously it discourages you from learning and discovering
for fear of embarrassment if something is incorrect. Wine is
best viewed as a hobby and enjoyed.
When assembling your collection, try not to become
obsessed with “Vintages.” Although a chart can be a useful
tool, generalizations about a specic year have led more
than one collector to disappointment. Often an “O Year
will provide a better value and more drinking enjoyment.
The primary guideline to the subject of wine is your own
palate. Do not be afraid to make mistakes. Experiment,
discover, but most of all, enjoy yourself and your new
U-Line product.

A Toast to Wine Truths
Like the grapes themselves, many wine myths have been
cultivated over the centuries.
Myth 1: Most wines taste better when aged.
Truth: In fact, less than 5% of wines produced today are
meant to be aged. Most wines are crafted to be consumed
within the rst one to two years.
Myth 2: Wines should be uncorked and decanted allowing
them to “breathe.
Truth: To breathe or not breathe? While it is better to
allow a young tannic Red to breathe in a glass or decanter
to soften the tannins, an old Red reaches a stage in its
life where it should be enjoyed soon after opening. Allow
an old Red to breathe for a short time to dissipate any
o odors. Most white wines can be served, ideally, 10-15
minutes after opening.
Myth 3: When age worthy wines peak, they must be
consumed almost immediately.
Truth: Most great wines reach a plateau period rather
than a peak. Great Bordeaux’s may have as much as a
10-year plateau before fading.
Myth 4: Wine color does not change with aging.
Truth: As red wines age they get lighter in color while
whites get darker.
The Cork: A Mystery on Its Own
Cork Presentation. The ritual of the presentation of the
cork has a rich and fascinating history dating back to
the late 1800’s. A phylloxera (root louse) devastation to
the vineyards severely limited the supply of great wines.
Restaurateurs would remove labels on inferior wines and
replace them with labels from superior wines. This made it
necessary for patrons to protect themselves by checking
the branding on the cork to ensure that what they ordered
was, in fact, what they were served.
When presented with a cork today, feel it to check for its
integrity, read and match the branding on the cork to the
bottle and set it aside. There is little to be learned from
the cork. The proof is in the wine.
“Corked” wines. If you’ve ever had a wine that smelled or
tasted of mold, you’ve experienced a wine that may have
been “corked.” Today, between ve and eight percent
of wines are tainted with Trichloroanisole (TCA). This
substance, found naturally in plants and trees, is imparted
to the wine through the cork. Corked wines are a major
concern for winemakers as it destroys millions of cases
per year and puts reputations at stake. Amazing as it may
seem, twist-o caps may oer a better alternative; many
great wineries in California, Australia and New Zealand are
pioneering the trend.

Terminology Description
Acidity A critical element of wine that is responsible
for preserving the wine’s freshness. Excess
acidity results in an overly tart and sour
wine.
Balance A desired trait where tannin, fruit and acidity
are in total harmony. Wines with good
balance tend to age gracefully.
Body The weight and presence of wine in the
mouth provided by the alcohol and tannin
level. Full-bodied wines tend to have this
strong concentration.
Bouquet The blending of a wine’s aroma within the
bottle over a period of time, caused by
volatile acidity.
Complex A subjective term often used in tasting.
A wine is said to be complex if it oers a
variety of avors and scents that continue to
evolve as it develops.
Flabby A wine that lacks structure, or is heavy to
the taste, lacks acidity.
Full-Bodied Wine high in alcohol and extract, generally
speaking, lls the mouth, powerful.
Lean Generally describes wines that are slim,
lacking of generosity or thin.
Oaky A desirable avor imparted to wine if done
in moderation. Most wines are aged in oak
barrels one to three years, thereby receiving
this toasty oak characteristic. However, if a
weak wine is left in contact too long with an
oak barrel, it will tend to be overpowered
with an oaky taste.
Tannin Tannins are extracted from the grape
skins and stems and are necessary for a
well-balanced red wine. Tannins are easily
identied in wine tasting as the drying
sensation over the gums. Tannins generally
fade as a wine ages.
Common Tasting Terms IDEAL WINE STORAGE CONSIDERATIONS
Temperature: The most important element about
storage temperature is stability. If wine is kept in a stable
environment between 40ºF (7ºC) and 65ºF (21ºC), it will
remain sound. A small 1-2 degree temperature fluctuation
within a stable environment is acceptable. Larger
temperature fluctuations can affect the cork’s ability to
seal, allowing the wine to “leak” from the bottle.
Humidity: The traditional view on humidity maintains
that wines should be stored on their sides in 50% - 80%
relative humidity to ensure cork moisture and proper t in
the bottle. Contemporary wisdom suggests that the cork
surface is too small to be impacted by humidity. Further,
the cork is sealed with a metal or wax capsule making
humidity penetration impossible. The concept of a humid
storage environment was derived from the necessity of
wineries to maintain moisture in their cellars to keep
wooden barrel staves swollen, preventing wine evaporation
and product loss. In fact, vineyards estimate as much as
a 10% product loss per year due to evaporation while wine
is aging in the wooden barrels. Humidity, however, was
not intended for the modern cellar where wine is stored in
glass bottles with sealed corks.
Light: UV rays are not only harmful to people, they are
damaging to wines - especially those in clear bottles. Since
oxygen molecules in wine absorb UV rays, wine should
never be stored in direct light for long periods of time.
Vibration: Provided that sediment is left undistributed
and particles are not suspended, vibration in a storage
environment is not an issue. Wines can become at or
tired when voids and vacuums are created inside the
wine bottle. In order to create voids and vacuums within
a liquid, aggressive motion or shaking of the wine bottle
would have to occur.

Cleaning
Stainless Models
Stainless door panels and handles can discolor when
exposed to chlorine gas, pool chemicals, saltwater or
cleaners with bleach.
Keep your stainless unit looking new by cleaning with a
good quality all-in-one stainless steel cleaner and polish
monthly. For best results use Claire® Stainless Steel
Polish and Cleaner. Comparable products are acceptable.
Frequent cleaning will remove surface contamination that
could lead to rust. Some installations may require cleaning
weekly.
Do not clean with steel wool pads.
Do not use stainless steel cleaners or polishes on
any glass surfaces.
Clean any glass surfaces with a non-chlorine glass
cleaner.
Do not use cleaners not specifically intended for
stainless steel on stainless steel surfaces (this
includes glass, tile and counter cleaners).
If any surface discoloring or rusting appears, clean it
quickly with Bon-Ami® or Barkeepers Friend Cleanser®
and a nonabrasive cloth. Always clean with the grain.
Always finish with Claire® Stainless Steel Polish and
Cleaner or comparable product to prevent further
problems.
Using abrasive pads such as Scotchbrite™ will
cause the graining in the stainless steel to
become blurred.
Rust not cleaned up promptly can penetrate the
surface of the stainless steel and complete
removal of the rust may not be possible.
Integrated Models
To clean integrated panels, use household cleaner per the
cabinet manufacturer’s recommendation.
INTERIOR CLEANING
Disconnect power to the unit.
Clean the interior and all removed components using a
mild nonabrasive detergent and warm water solution
applied with a soft sponge or non-abrasive cloth.
Rinse the interior using a soft sponge and clean water.
Do not use any solvent-based or abrasive
cleaners. These types of cleaners may transfer taste to
the interior products and damage or discolor the lining.
DEFROSTING
Under normal conditions this unit does not require manual
defrosting. Minor frost on the rear wall or visible through
the evaporator plate vents is normal and will melt during
each off cycle.
If there is excessive build-up of 1/4" (6 mm) or more,
manually defrost the unit.
Ensure the door is closing and sealing properly.
High ambient temperature and excessive humidity can
also produce frost.
CAUTION
!
DO NOT use an ice pick or other sharp
instrument to help speed up defrosting. These
instruments can puncture the inner lining or
damage the cooling unit. DO NOT use any type of
heater to defrost. Using a heater to speed up
defrosting can cause personal injury and
damage to the inner lining.
