The interior should be washed thoroughly with hot, soapy water to remove film residues and any dust or debris before being used, then rinsed and wiped dry. Solutions stronger than soap and water are rarely needed. • All stainless steel body parts should be wiped with hot, soapy water and with a liquid cleaner designed for this material. If buildup occurs, do not use steel wool, abrasive cloths, cleansers, or powders! Do not use a metal knife, spatula, or any other material tool to scrape stainless steel! Scratches are almost impossible to remove. Drawing the Perfect Glass of Beer 1 2 General Tips & Suggestions • After making a temperature change, allow 24 hours for your unit to reach a new temperature setting. • The motor will stop and start often. It must do this to maintain the temperature you select. • Unplug the appliance before working on anything with the electrical system. • Exercise caution when sweeping, vaccuming or mopping near the front of the unit. Damage to the grill can occur. • For all cleaning, mix 2 tablespoons baking soda with 1 quart warm water or use mild, soapy, water solution. Do not use strong cleaners or scouring powder or pads. • Keep your appliance out of direct sunlight. • Do not splash or spray water on or under the unit. • Clean your appliance’s condenser periodically to maintain proper cooling performance. Start with a clean beer glass that has been wetted in cold water. Place the glass at a 45° angle, one inch below the faucet. DO NOT let the glass touch the faucet. Open the faucet all the way. After the glass has reached half full, gradually bring the glass to an upright position. 3 4 Operating Instructions SETTING THE CONTROL NOTE: The control is factory set for the ideal draft beer temperature - 38°F (3.3°C). (Temperature setting may need adjustments depending on ambient temperature.) Initially set the cold control knob midway between the numbers. Allow at least 48 hours for the unit to stabilize before making any adjustments to the initial temperature setting. The higher the number, the cooler the temperature. Let the remaining beer run straight down the middle. This insures proper release of CO2 by producing a 3/4” to 1” foam head. Close the faucet completely and quickly. The temperature control knob is located at the bottom front of the cabinet, just behind the square opening near the middle of the grill. Draft beer is not pasteurized, so it must be kept cold - preferably around 38°F (3.3°C). Temperatures above 45°F (7.2°C) may cause the beer to become wild, turn sour and cloudy. Draft beer should be consumed within 30 days, as it is not pasteurized and loses its original brewery fresh taste and aroma the older it gets. 16 17 Cleaning & Maintenance Condenser The condenser underneath the cabinet does not require frequent cleaning; however, satisfactory cooling depends on adequate ventilation over this heat exchanger. It is recommended to annually clean the condenser by vacuuming and brushing. To access the condenser, the unit must be pulled out from the installation and the lower machine compartment access cover removed. WARNING Troubleshooting PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE AND/OR REMEDY WILD BEER Beer, when drawn, is all foam or too much foam and not enough liquid beer. Beer drawn improperly Creeping regulator Applied pressure is set too high Hot spots in line Use of non-insulated beer line Beer runs are too long for proper cooling Tapped into a warm keg Cooler malfunctioning Kinks, dents, twists or other obstructions in line Faucets in bad, dirty or worn condition CLOUDY BEER When beer in glass appears hazy, not clear Frozen or nearly frozen beer Old beer Beer that has been unrefrigerated for long periods of time Dirty glass Dirty faucet Unrefrigerated foods placed on top of cold keg Contaminated air source FLAT BEER Foamy head disappears quickly; beer lacks usual, zestful, breweryfresh flavor Dirty glasses Sluggish regulator Applied pressure is set too low CO2 is turned off at night Disconnect the power cord before removing the access cover. Be sure that nothing obstructs the required air flow openings in front of the cabinet. At least once or twice a year, brush or vacuum lint and dirt from the front grille area. Cabinet The painted cabinet can be washed with mild soap and water and thoroughly rinsed with clear water. NEVER use abrasive scouring powders. Interior and Door Gaskets Wash interior compartment with mild soap and water. Mix 2 tablespoons baking soda with 1 quart warm water. Do not use an abrasive powder, solvent, polish cleaner or undiluted detergent. ENERGY SAVING TIPS The following suggestions will minimize the cost of operating your refrigeration appliance. 1. Do not install your appliance next to a hot appliance, (cooker, dishwasher, etc.), heating air duct or other heat sources. 2. Install product out of direct sunlight. 3. Assure the toe grille vents at front of unit beneath door are not obstructed. Keep toe grille vents clean to allow ventilation for the refrigeration system to expel heat. 4. Plug your appliance into a dedicated power circuit. (Not shared with other appliances.) 5. When initially loading your new product, or whenever large quantities of warm contents are placed within refrigerated storage compartment, minimize door openings for the next 12 hours to allow contents to pull down to compartment set-point temperature. 6. Maintaining a relatively full storage compartment will require less appliance run-time than an empty compartment. 7. Assure door closing is not obstructed by contents stored in your appliance. 8. Allow hot items to reach room temperature before placing in product. 9. Minimize door openings and duration of door openings. 10. Use the warmest temperature control set-point that meets your personal preference and provides the proper storage for your stored contents. 11. Minimize use of display lighting option on glass door products, (light stays on with door closed). 12. When on vacation or away from home for extended periods, set the appliance to warmest acceptable temperature for the stored contents. 13. Set the control to the “OFF” position if cleaning the unit requires the door to be open for an extended period of time. 14. Annually clean condenser heat exchange coil located in machine compartment underneath unit, (see Cleaning and Maintenance section). 18 Contaminated air source (associated with compressed air) Moisture in air system Beer too cold Loose tap or vent connections FALSE HEAD Large soap-like bubbles, head dissolves very quickly Applied pressure required does not correspond to beer temperature Small beer line into a large faucet shank Beer lines warmer than beer in keg Dry glasses Improper pour UNPALATABLE BEER Off-taste Dirty or old beer lines Dirty faucet Contaminated air source or unfiltered Unsanitary bar conditions 19 Warranty Service Information If service is required, call your dealer or authorized service agency.
