UNPACKING YOUR APPLIANCE

EXCESSIVE WEIGHT HAZARD
Use two or more people to move product.
Failure to do so can result in personal injury.

Remove Interior Packaging
Your appliance has been packed for shipment with all parts that could be damaged by movement securely fastened. Remove internal packing materials and any tape holding in-ternal components in place. The owners manual is shipped inside the product in a plastic bag along with the warranty registration card, and other accessory items.

Important
Keep your carton and packaging until your appliance has been thoroughly inspected and found to be in good condi-tion. If there is damage, the packaging will be needed as proof of damage in transit. Afterwards please dispose of all items responsibly.
WARNING – Dispose of the plastic bags which can be a suffocation hazard.

Note to Customer
This merchandise was carefully packed and thoroughly inspected before leaving our plant. Responsibility for its safe delivery was assumed by the retailer upon acceptance of the shipment. Claims for loss or damage sustained in transit must be made to the retailer.
NOTE DO NOT RETURN DAMAGED MERCHANDISE TO THE MANUFACTURER – FILE THE CLAIM WITH THE RETAILER.
CAUTION If the appliance was shipped, handled, or stored in other than an upright position for any period of time, allow the ap-pliance to sit upright for a period of at least 24 hours before plugging in. This will assure oil returns to the compressor. Plugging the appliance in immediately may cause damage to internal parts.
WARNING – Help Prevent Tragedies
Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems of the past. Junked or abandoned refrigerators are still dangerous – even if they sit out for “just a few hours”.
If you are getting rid of your old refrigerator, please fol-low the instructions below to help prevent accidents.
Before you throw away your old refrigerator or freezer:

  • Take off the doors or remove the drawers.
  • Leave the shelves in place so children may not easily climb inside.

ELECTRICAL

Warning: Electrical Shock Hazard

  • Do not use an extension cord with this appliance. They can be hazardous and can degrade product performance.
  • This appliance should not, under any circumstanc-es, be installed to an ungrounded electrical supply.
  • Do not remove the grounding prong from the power cord.
  • Do not use an adapter.
  • Do not splash or spray water from a hose on the appliance. Doing so may cause an electrical shock, which may result in severe injury or death.

Electrical Connection
A grounded 115 volt, 15 amp dedicated circuit is required.
This product is factory equipped with a power supply
cord that has a three-pronged, grounded plug. It must be plugged into a mating grounding type receptacle in ac-cordance with the National Electrical Code and applicable local codes and ordinances (see figure below). If the circuit does not have a grounding type receptacle, it is the respon-sibility and obligation of the customer to provide the proper power supply. The third ground prong should not, under any circumstances, be cut or removed. NOTE Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters (GFCI) are prone to nui-sance tripping which will cause the appliance to shut down. GFCI’s are generally not used on circuits with power equip-ment that must run unattended for long periods of time, un-less required to meet local building codes and ordinances.

INSTALLING YOUR APPLIANCE

Select Location
The proper location will ensure peak performance of your appliance. We recommend a location where the unit will be out of direct sunlight and away from heat sources. To ensure your product performs to specifications, the recom-mended installation location temperature range is from 55 to 100°F (13 to 38°C).
Cabinet Clearance
Ventilation is required from the bottom front of the appli-ance. Keep this area open and clear of any obstructions. Adjacent cabinets and counter top can be installed around the appliance as long as the front grille remains unobstruct-ed. All Marvel Professional models with articulated hinges are intended for built-in applications only.
WARNING An optional stacking kit, for 24″ wide models, is re-quired to stack products. Failure to use a stacking kit could result in personal injury. Contact your dealer or Marvel customer service at 616-754-5601 to order. For safety concerns 15″ wide models should not be stacked.

CAUTION

Front Grille
Do not obstruct the front grille. The openings within the front grille allow air to flow through the condenser heat ex-changer. Restrictions to this air flow will result in increased energy usage and loss of cooling capacity. For this reason it is important this area to not be obstructed and the grille openings kept clean. Marvel does not recommend the use of a custom made grille as air flow may be restricted.
Leveling Legs
Adjustable legs at the front and rear corners of the appli-ance should be set so the unit is firmly positioned on the floor and level from side to side and front to back. The over-all height of your Marvel appliance may be adjusted higher (by turning the leveling leg out, CCW) and lower (by turning the leveling leg in, CW).
To adjust the leveling legs, place the appliance on a solid surface and protect the floor beneath the legs to avoid scratching the floor. With the assistance of another person, lean the appliance back to access the front leveling legs. Raise or lower the legs to the required dimension by turning the legs. Repeat this process for the rear by tilting the appli-ance forward using caution. On a level surface check the appliance for levelness and adjust accordingly.
The front grille screws may be loosened and the grille ad-justed to the desired height. When adjustment is complete tighten the two front grille screws.

INSTALLING THE ANTI TIP DEVICE 

WARNING

  • ALL APPLIANCES CAN TIP RESULTING IN INJURY.
  • INSTALL THE ANTI-TIP BRACKET PACKED WITH THE APPLIANCE.
  • FOLLOW THE INSTRUC-TIONS BELOW
Anti-Tip Device

WARNING If your beverage center is not located under a counter top (free standing), you must use an anti-tip device installed as per these instructions. If the beverage center is removed from its location for any reason, make sure that the device is properly engaged with the anti-tip bracket when you push the beverage center back into the original location. If the device is not properly engaged, there is a risk of the beverage center tipping over, with the potential for property dam-age or personal injury.
NOTE If installing on a concrete floor, concrete fasteners are required, (not included with the anti-tip kit).
CAUTION  Any finished flooring should be protected with appropriate material to avoid damage when moving the unit.
Floor Mount Installation
The anti-tip bracket is to be located on the floor in the left or right rear corner of the wine cellar.

Step by step instructions for locating the po-sition of the bracket:

  1. Decide where you want to place the beverage center. Slide it into place, being careful not to damage the floor, leaving 1″ (2.5 cm) of clearance from the rear wall to allow room for the anti-tip bracket.
  2. Raise the rear leveling legs approximately ¹⁄4″ (6 mm) to allow engagement with the anti-tip bracket. Level the unit by adjusting all the leveling legs as required. Turning the leveling leg counterclockwise will raise the unit and clock-wise will lower the unit.
  3. Make sure the beverage center is in the desired loca-tion, then mark on the floor the rear and side corner of the cabinet where the anti-tip bracket will be installed. If the installation does not allow marking the rear corner of the cabinet, then make temporary lines on the floor marking the front corner of the cabinet, excluding the door. Slide the beverage center out of the way. From the temporary line extend the sidewall line back 211⁄2″ (54.6 cm) as shown in Figure 15.
  4. Align the anti-tip bracket to the marks on the floor so the side of the bracket lines up with the side of the cabinet mark, and the “V” notches on the anti-tip bracket line up with the end of the 211⁄2″ (54.6 cm) line (Rear of cabinet line).
  5. Fasten the anti-tip bracket to the floor using the supplied screw.
  6. Slide the cabinet back into position, making sure the rear cabinet leveling leg slides under the anti-tip bracket engag-ing the slot.

NOTE When the floor mounted anti-tip bracket is used the mini-mum adjusted height of the cabinet is increased by 3⁄8″ (9 mm
