Persistent musty or sour odor inside the wine cooler

Safety: Unplug the unit before deep cleaning. Avoid harsh chemicals that can damage seals or taint wine.

Cleaning procedure:

• 1. Empty the cabinet: Remove all bottles and shelves. Store wine in a cool, dark place temporarily.
• 2. Clean surfaces: Wash interior walls, shelves, and racks with a solution of mild detergent and warm water, then wipe with a mixture of water and baking soda or food-safe disinfectant.
• 3. Clean gasket: Gently scrub the door gasket folds with a soft brush and mild cleaner.
• 4. Clear drain: Ensure the drain hole and tube are clean to prevent stagnant water.
• 5. Air out: Leave the door open for several hours to dry completely before restarting.
