Chemical or plastic smell from inside a relatively new wine cooler.

Safety first: Unplug the unit before extended airing or cleaning.

Steps to reduce odor:

• 1. Remove all packaging: Ensure all plastic films, foam blocks, and tape are removed from shelves and interior surfaces.
• 2. Wipe interior: Clean with a mild detergent solution, then wipe with a baking soda solution.
• 3. Air out the cabinet: Leave the door open for several hours or overnight with the unit unplugged to allow odors to dissipate.
• 4. Use odor absorbers: Place an open box of baking soda or activated charcoal inside for a few days.
