Your wine cooler comes with a towel bar style handle. To install the handle,
you will need a Phillips head screwdriver.
Look at the left side of the door frame, facing onwards. There are two small
holes in the frame. Take the handle and hold it up to the door frame so that
the holes in the handle line up with the holes in door frame. While holding the
handle with one hand, insert a screw through the top hole and screw it into the
top hole in the door frame. Then insert a screw in the bottom hole in the
handle and screw it into the bottom hole in the door frame. Now insert the
small „caps‟ included into the holes in the handle.
Note: On some models, the handle can be installed in either side of the door
frame. To install the handle in the right side of the door frame, use a small flat
head screwdriver to pry the caps out of their holes and follow the above
instructions.
