ELECTRONIC CONTROL S Y S T E M  
The Electronic Control System of your  
Sub-Zero Wine Storage unit gives you the  
most accurate temperature control for your  
peace of mind. You can be assured your wine  
is stored at the temperature you have selected,  
whether it is long-term aging or staging wine  
for consumption that evening.  
T E M P E R AT U R E C O N T RO L  
With all Wine Storage models you have the  
capability of setting two distinct temperatures  
within the two zones of your Wine Storage  
unit. Your model has been thoroughly tested  
and inspected before it was shipped from the  
factory. The temperature has been preset at  
45˚F (7˚C) in the top zone and 55˚F (13˚C) in the  
bottom zone.  
A microprocessor accurately samples the  
temperature every second in each zone to be  
sure the temperatures stay within one degree  
of your preset temperatures. It also monitors  
the unit’s operation and will let you know if  
service may be necessary.  
There are two sets of WARMER and COLDER  
key pads on the control panel, one for each of  
the two separate temperature zones. An arrow  
next to the temperature in the LED display, will  
indicate which temperature corresponds with  
each zone. Refer to the illustration below.  
The COLDER key pad on the control panel  
allows you to decrease the temperature in the  
corresponding zone by one degree each time  
you depress the key pad. Remember that the  
temperature range in each zone is 38˚F (3˚C) to  
65˚F (18˚C) and you can set two different  
temperatures—one for each zone.  
Similar to the COLDER key pad, you can raise  
the temperature in the corresponding zone by  
one degree each time you depress the  
WARMER key pad on the control panel.

Electronic control system functions, such as  
digital temperatures and service indicators, are  
shown in the LED display, located on the  
control panel. The temperatures of each zone  
will be visible through the glass door of your  
Wine Storage unit. If you are using your unit  
frequently, the numbers may fluctuate.  
If the microprocessor detects temperature  
fluctuations or a faulty component, you will  
hear an audible beep and a bell symbol will  
flash in the LED display on the control panel.  
Also, if the unit is tied in with your home  
security, it will alert this system. You can  
deactivate the alarm feature and the audible  
sound by depressing the BELL symbol key  
pad. If the alarm is deactivated, the bell will  
not be visible in the LED display.

The UNIT ON/OFF key pad on the control  
panel will shut off all electrical power to the  
Wine Storage unit for cleaning or service.

All Wine Storage units feature the Sabbath  
Mode. This is for certain religious observances  
where the lights need to be turned off.  
L I G H T S O N / O F F  
To initiate Sabbath Mode, while the unit is on  
press the UNIT ON/OFF key pad so that OFF  
is visible in the LED display on the control  
panel. Your unit will be off.  
All Wine Storage units have the capability of  
having the lights on independently of the  
door’s opening and closing. This will allow you  
to display your collection of wine for special  
occasions.  
Then press and hold the UNIT ON/OFF key  
pad for 10 seconds. This will turn the unit back  
on and will disable the lights. To return the  
unit to normal lighting, press and release the  
UNIT ON/OFF key pad.  
To have the lights remain on independently of  
the door’s opening and closing, press the  
LIGHTS ON/OFF key pad. Press the key pad  
again to have the lights to go off when the  
door is closed.  
If you have questions about Star-K compliance,  
You should not leave the lights on  
V I S U A L S E RV I C E D I S P L AY  
overnight or for extremely long periods of  
time. The heat from the lights will cause  
the unit to work unnecessarily hard.  
The electronic control system monitors  
temperatures as well as the the unit’s opera-  
tion. If there is a temperature or operation  
problem, you will notice the word SERVICE  
illuminated in the LED display on the control  
panel. Before calling for service, please check  
to see if your condenser area needs cleaning.

In all instances, the temperature settings are  
your individual preference, and with the Wine  
Storage model you purchased, you can be  
confident the unit will maintain those tempera-  
tures. A chart with suggested storing and  
serving temperatures can be found on page 19.  
Model 427R: The refrigerated drawers have  
their own microprocessor and control panel  
located in the top drawer. The preset tempera-  
ture is 38˚F (3˚C) from the factory, but you have  
the option of adjusting the temperature within  
the range of 34˚F (1˚C) to 45˚F (7˚C). The LCD  
display on the control panel displays the actual  
temperature of both drawers in your unit.  
While each temperature zone of your Wine  
Storage unit has a range of 38˚F (3˚C) to 65˚F  
(18˚C), you can set the temperatures at the  
exact temperature you think best—whether it’s  
for consumption or for duplicating the temper-  
atures of cellars for long-term storage.  
The COLDER key pad on the control panel  
allows you to decrease the temperature of the  
drawers by one degree each time you depress  
the key pad. You can raise the temperature in  
the drawers by one degree each time you  
depress the WARMER key pad on the control  
panel.

Classic and platinum stainless steel  
finishes: To clean the exterior of the classic  
and platinum stainless steel finishes, use a  
soft, nonabrasive stainless steel cleaner like  
Signature Polish and apply with a soft 100%  
lint-free cloth.  
The glass door panel can be cleaned using any  
standard glass cleaner available on the market  
today.

Carbon stainless steel finish: Carbon  
stainless steel can be cleaned with mild soap  
and water.  
To clean interior surfaces and removable parts,  
wash with a mild solution of soap and luke-  
warm water with a little baking soda. Do not  
use vinegar. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Avoid  
getting water on lights, control panel and the  
solid cherry wood facing on the shelves.  
Signature Polish  
is available from

Dayton, Ohio  
45413-0436, or  
877-376-5474  
(toll free).  
The carbon stainless steel finish uses the  
interest of brushed steel to bring out the  
maximum metallic luster of its charcoal  
background. Different light types and source  
locations can result in variations in shading on  
different components and areas of large appli-  
ances. These variations are normal with the  
carbon finish and add to the unique character  
of colored stainless steel.  
Do not use abrasive cleaners or cloths on any  
of the interior or exterior surfaces, including  
the glass door panel.  
Before cleaning the unit, shut the electric-  
ity off at the control panel.  
To bring out the natural luster of all three  
finishes, lightly wipe the surface with a water-  
dampened microfiber cloth followed by a dry  
polishing chamois. All work should follow the  
grain direction of the finish. Better results are  
obtained by keeping the cloth in continuous  
contact with the stainless steel.  
Under no circumstances should you use  
a metallic or highly abrasive cleaner or  
cloth, as this will remove the carbon  
finish or scratch the classic or platinum  
finishes.

K E E P I N G WINE AT ITS BEST  
STORING A N D SERVING W I N E  
There is a right way to store and serve wine.  
And there is a wrong way. The Sub-Zero Wine  
Storage equipment is committed to the right  
way. Wine enthusiasts know that wine, opti-  
mally, likes to be stored for long periods of  
time in caves that are vibration free, dark,  
damp and kept at a constant 55˚F (13˚C).  
However, how many of us have these situa-  
tions available?  
You can devote the entire Wine Storage unit to  
long-term storage and have the temperature  
set to 55˚F (13˚C) in both zones—the ideal  
temperature for long-term storage or aging.  
If, however, you want to devote only a small  
portion of the unit to that feature, you can  
adjust the temperature in the smaller zone to  
long-term storage and adjust the other temper-  
ature zone to accommodate the wine you will  
be enjoying soon.  
When you think about wine, think about  
preserving fruit and the fact that you must  
refrigerate it at the proper temperature before  
it spoils. After all, wine is the juice of grapes in  
its simplest interpretation.  
The temperature in this zone can be anything  
you choose. Sure, there are ideal temperatures  
for serving wine, but it is very subjective, with  
everyone’s palate reacting differently to differ-  
ent temperatures.  
Wine needs to be selected and cared for  
properly. The wine aficionado knows that  
proper storage will ensure the wine is served  
at the best conditions.  
The chart on the following page offers some  
universally accepted storing and serving  
temperatures for the most common wines  
consumed today.  
You have taken the extra step to ensure that  
your wine is kept in the best possible environ-  
ment by purchasing your Sub-Zero Wine  
Storage unit. Now how you use the unit is up  
to you.  
Enjoy the wine and your Sub-Zero Wine  
Storage unit. And thank you for your trust in  
Sub-Zero.

F R E Q U E N T LY A S K E D QUESTIONS  
T E M P E R AT U R E  
N O I S E  
Q: Why do I hear my unit running frequently?  
IMPORTANT NOTE: Unless the Wine Storage  
unit is being serviced, make sure the power for  
your unit is on.  
A: It is normal to hear the operation of fans  
and motors. Sounds will be accentuated  
based on the placement of the unit and  
overall room design.  
Q: How do I adjust the temperatures?  
A: To adjust temperatures, see Temperature  
Control on page 8. For Model 427R, also  
refer to page 10.  
Q: What are the suggested temperature  
settings?  
A: Temperature settings are your individual  
preference. While each temperature zone  
of your Wine Storage unit has a range of  
38˚F (3˚C) to 65˚F (18˚C), you can set the  
temperatures you think best. A chart with  
suggested storing and serving temperatures  
can be found on page 19.  
Q: Condensation is forming on the inside and  
outside of my unit.  
A: In climates with higher humidity, condensa-  
tion will form and is considered normal.  
Leaving the door open for a long period of  
time may also contribute to condensation  
forming on the inside of your unit.  
Q: My unit isn’t cooling properly.  
A: Clean the condenser area as outlined on  
page 16.
