Introduction
SUMMIT’s line of Pub Cellars offers the ideal conditions for storing and displaying
bottled and canned beer, as well as wines. These units are especially suited to the
storage of craft beers. The digital thermostat is set to a warmer temperature range
(41 to 65ºF) to ensure the right conditions for these specialty brews.
Bottled beers should never be stored under bright lights, especially not fluorescent or
sunlight, because bright light can quickly “skunk” the beer, especially if stored in
green or clear bottles. Many of our Pub Cellars have solid doors, and those with
glass doors are available with various degrees of tinting to prevent overexposure to
light.
Bottled beers should be stored standing straight up on their bases – and not on their
sides like wine. Storing upright ensures that any sediment common in many styles of
craft beer will settle to the bottom of the bottle. With the sediment at the bottom, you
have the choice of leaving it in the bottle or pouring it into the glass. Our Pub Cellars
have adjustable shelving to allow your bottled beer to be stored upright.
Storing a beer perfectly can be tricky. You want to keep it cool enough that
fermentation doesn’t get out of hand and shorten the lifespan of the beer, while
keeping it too cold puts your beer at risk of having a constant cloudy look.
Specifically, strong beers tend to prefer temperatures of 55 to 60°F. Standard ales
and stouts do better at slightly chillier temperatures of 50 to 55°. Lighter beers need
temperatures of 45 to 50°F. SUMMIT’s Pub Cellars can accommodate all of these
temperature ranges.
Whichever model you’ve chosen, you’re assured of quality construction, attractive
appearance and an experienced staff of SUMMIT professionals to back up our
product. Cheers!

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
Before the refrigerator is used, it must be properly positioned and installed as
described in this manual, so read the manual carefully. To reduce the risk of fire,
electrical shock or injury when using the refrigerator, follow basic precautions,
including the following:
•
Plug into a grounded 3-prong outlet, do not remove grounding prong, do not use an adapter,
and do not use an extension cord.
•
It is recommended that a separate circuit, serving only your refrigerator be provided. Use
receptacles that cannot be turned off by a switch or pull chain.
•
Never clean refrigerator parts with flammable fluids. These fumes can create a fire hazard or
explosion.
•
Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids inside or in the vicinity of
this or any other appliance. The fumes can create a fire hazard or explosion.
•
Do not use inflammable sprays in the vicinity of the refrigerator.
•
Before proceeding with cleaning and maintenance operations, make sure the power line of
the unit is disconnected.
•
Do not connect or disconnect the electric plug when your hands are wet.
•
Unplug the refrigerator or disconnect power before cleaning or servicing. Failure to do so can
result in electrical shock or death.
•
Do not attempt to repair or replace any part of your refrigerator unless it is specifically
recommended in this manual. All other servicing should be referred to a qualified technician.
Regarding the FF29KDTPUB model series:
 These appliances are CFC- and HFC-free and contain small quantities of Isobutane
(R600a) which is environmentally friendly, but flammable. It does not damage the ozone
layer, nor does it increase the greenhouse effect. Care must be taken during
transportation and setting up of the appliance that no parts of the cooling system are
damaged. Leaking coolant can ignite and may damage the eyes.
In the event of any damage:
- Avoid open flames and anything that creates a spark,
- Disconnect from the electrical power line,
- Air the room in which the appliance is located for several minutes, and
- Contact the Service Department for advice.
 The more coolant there is in an appliance, the larger the room it should be installed in. In
the event of a leakage, if the appliance is in a small room, there is the danger of
combustible gases building up. For every ounce of coolant at least 325 cubic feet of room
space is required. The amount of coolant in the appliance is stated on the data plate on
the back of the appliance. It is hazardous for anyone other than an Authorized Service
Person to carry out servicing or repairs to this appliance.
 Take serious care when handling, moving, and using the appliance to avoid either
damaging the refrigerant tubing or increasing the risk of a leak.
 Replacing component parts and servicing shall be done by factory authorized service
personnel so as to minimize the risk of possible ignition due to incorrect parts or improper
service.
3
•
Use two or more people to move and install the refrigerator. Failure to do so can result in
back or other injury.
•
To ensure proper ventilation for your refrigerator, the front of the unit must be completely
unobstructed. Choose a well-ventilated area with temperatures above 60°F (16°C) and
below 90°F (32°C). This unit must be installed in an area protected from the elements, such
as wind, rain, water spray or drips.
•
The refrigerator should not be located next to ovens, grills or other sources of high heat.
•
The refrigerator must be installed with all electrical, water and drain connections in
accordance with state and local codes. A standard electrical supply (115 V AC only, 60 Hz),
properly grounded in accordance with the National Electrical Code and local codes and
ordinances is required.
•
Do not kink or pinch the power supply cord of the refrigerator.
•
The fuse (or circuit breaker) size should be 15 amperes.
•
It is important for the refrigerator to be leveled in order to work properly. You may need to
make several adjustments to level it.
•
Check for leaks after connection.
•
Never allow children to operate, play with or crawl inside the refrigerator.
•
This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical,
sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been
given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for
their safety.
•
IMPORTANT: Do not use mechanical devices or other means to accelerate the defrosting
process, other than those recommended by the manufacturer.
•
IMPORTANT: Do not damage the refrigerant circuit.
•
IMPORTANT: Do not use electrical appliances inside the storage compartment of the
appliance, unless they are of the type recommended by the manufacturer.
•
Do not use solvent-based cleaning agents or abrasives on the interior. These cleaners may
damage or discolor the interior.
•
Do not use this apparatus for other than its intended purpose.
Risk of child entrapment
Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems of the past. Junked or abandoned
refrigerators and freezers are still dangerous, even if they will “just sit in the garage a few
days.”
• Before you throw away your old refrigerator or freezer: Take off the doors. Leave
the shelves or drawers in place so that children may not easily climb inside.
• Never allow children to operate, play with, or crawl inside the refrigerator/freezer.

Installation Instructions
Before Using Your Appliance:
• Remove the exterior and interior packing.
• CAUTION:
After unpacking and before connecting to a power source, you MUST allow this
appliance to stand upright for at least 2 hours to allow the lubricant and refrigerant to
drain back into the compressor and stabilize. Failure to do so may adversely affect
performance and the lifetime of this unit.
• Remove the shelves and clean them and the interior surfaces of the unit with
lukewarm water using a soft cloth.
Installing the Pub Cellar:
• Place the unit on a floor or other surface that is strong enough to support the
appliance when it is fully loaded. To level the unit, adjust the two leveling legs at the
front.
• Unless your particular model has the letters BI (built-in) in the model number, the
appliance is designed to be free-standing only and not recessed or built into an
enclosure. When installing, allow at least 4” (102mm) of space at the sides, top and
rear of the unit to allow for proper air circulation to cool the compressor and
condenser. Take care that any air vents at the front of the appliance are never
covered or blocked in any way.
• If your model has the letters BI in its model number, the appliance can be installed
either free-standing or built-in. If the unit will be built into an enclosure, you must still
allow at least 3/16” (5mm) of clear space on both sides and at the top, and 2” (51mm)
at the back. If the unit has an air vent at the front, take care that it is never covered or
blocked in any way.
• The FF63BDTPUB models are supplied with spacers that must be mounted onto the
condenser tube at the back to make sure there is sufficient clearance between the
appliance and the wall. See illustration below.
• Locate your Pub Cellar away from direct sunlight and sources of heat (oven, heater,
radiator, etc.). Direct sunlight may affect the acrylic coating and can also reduce the
quality of items stored in models with glass doors. Heat sources may increase
electrical consumption. Extremely cold ambient temperatures may also affect the
unit's performance.
10
• Avoid locating the unit in moist areas. Too much moisture in the air will cause frost to
form quickly on the evaporator, requiring more frequent defrosting of the interior.
• Plug the unit into an exclusive, properly installed and grounded wall outlet. Do not
under any circumstances cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord.
Any questions concerning power and/or grounding should be directed toward a
certified electrician or authorized service center.
Electrical Connection:
Improper use of the grounded plug can result in the risk of electrical shock. If the power
cord is damaged, have it replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly
qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.
The unit should be properly grounded for your safety. The power cord is equipped with a
three-prong plug that mates with a standard three-prong wall outlet to minimize the
possibility of electrical shock.
Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the third ground prong from the power
cord supplied. For personal safety, this appliance must be properly grounded.
This unit requires a standard 115-volt AC/60Hz electrical outlet with three-prong ground.
Have the wall outlet and circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make sure the outlet
is properly grounded. When a standard 2-prong wall outlet is encountered, it is your
responsibility and obligation to have it replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong wall
outlet.
To prevent accidental injury, the cord should be secured behind the unit and not left
exposed or dangling.
The unit should always be plugged into its own individual electrical outlet that has a
voltage rating that matches the rating label on the appliance. This provides the best
performance and also prevents overloading house wiring circuits that could cause a fire
hazard from overheated wires. Never unplug the unit by pulling on the power cord.
Always grip the plug firmly and pull straight out from the receptacle. Repair or replace
immediately any power cord that has become frayed or otherwise damaged. Do not use
a cord that shows cracks or abrasion damage along its length or at either end. When
moving the unit, be careful not to damage the power cord.
Extension Cord:
Do not use an extension cord with this appliance. If the power cord is too short, have a
qualified electrician or service technician install an outlet near the appliance.
Reversing the Door Swing:
The door swing of the SCR312LPUB models cannot be reversed, but all of the other
models described in this manual have reversible doors. If you find the direction of
opening the door of your appliance inconvenient, you can change it. Holes on the
opposite side have already been prepared at the factory.
Aside from SCR312LPUB models, each appliance can be opened from either the right
side or the left. By default, the door hinge is on the right side. If you prefer it on the left,
please follow the instructions on the following pages for the appropriate model.
Remember that all of the parts that are removed must be kept for re-installation of the
door.
11
For FF7LBLPUB and FF63BDTPUB series models:
1. Take off the upper hinge cover from the door and remove the screws that hold the top
hinge.
2. Lift the hinge straight up to free the hinge pin from the socket in the top of the door.
3. Lift the door up and away to free its bottom socket from the hinge pin.
4. Remove the screws to the bottom hinge.
5. Remove the decorative caps from the opposite side and plug the holes from the
original side with the decorative caps.
6. Move the bottom hinge to the opposite side and tighten the screws. Use any lock
washers or nuts if they were installed in the original installation.
7. Replace door onto the hinge pin on the bottom hinge. Place top hinge pin into door.
Insert screws into the top hinge and tighten.
If you notice the door not hanging straight, loosen the top hinge screws, adjust the door
until it is level and tighten the screws.
FF29KDTPUB series models:
Refer to the set of diagrams below if you wish to reverse the door opening direction for these
models.

Operating Your Pub Cellar
Digital Thermostat:
The temperature inside your appliance is controlled by a digital thermostat located at the
front of the unit. Normally, the LED display shows the current temperature inside the
unit.
The preset temperature range of the thermostat is 41 to 65ºF (5 to18°C), and the
operating temperature is factory-set at 45ºF (7°C). If you find that it is necessary to
change the temperature setting (Set Point) for your appliance, refer to the appropriate
instructions below.
 Series models FF7LBLPUB, FF29KDTPUB, FF63BDTPUB and SCR600BLPUB:
The front panel of the thermostat for these models is illustrated here:
To see the SET POINT:
Push and immediately release the SET key. The display will show the Set Point
value. Wait 5 seconds and the interior temperature will display again.
To change the SET POINT:
1. Push and hold the SET key for more than 3 seconds to change the Set Point
value. The value of the Set Point will be displayed.
2. Push the UP or DOWN arrow to the desired setting. The new setting will be
memorized after 15 seconds, provided no other keys are pushed.

ºF/ºC Selector
You can choose to display the temperature setting in Fahrenheit or Celsius. To
change the temperature from Fahrenheit to Celsius or from Celsius to Fahrenheit,
press the
button for at least 5 seconds.
Defrosting the Pub Cellar:
Your appliance operates with an automatic defrost system, so the Pub Cellar defrosts
itself. While the compressor is operating, ice will build along the cold rear wall (the
evaporator plate is behind the wall). During the compressor’s off-cycle, ice will melt, drip
down, collect in the trough at the bottom and drain through a small hole into a tray above
the compressor; where the compressor’s heat will evaporate the water. If you notice
excessive ice build-up on the rear wall, try setting the thermostat to a slightly warmer
setting; be sure that the door gasket is sealing well and that there is no obstruction of the
drain hole at the bottom rear of the interior cabinet.
15
Door Lock:
All models except the FF63BDTPUB series are provided with a lock and key
combination. The keys are located inside the plastic bag that contains the Instruction
Manual. Insert the key into the lock and turn it counterclockwise to unlock the door. To
lock the door, do the reverse operation, making sure the metal pin is engaged
completely. Remove the key and put it in a secure place for safekeeping.
Important Notes:
•
•
•
•
•
•
The minimum/maximum range of your thermostat (41 to 65ºF) is preset and locked
by us. To reset this range lock, either call us at 800-932-4267 or find information on
our website under Troubleshooting.
The temperature inside the Pub Cellar is affected by how often you open the door, so
try to keep the door opening to a minimum.
In all small refrigerators without interior fans, temperatures are coldest near the
bottom, and occasionally near the rear. Place contents accordingly. It is best not to
operate these units mostly empty. If temperatures are erratic, try putting some water
bottles inside to create a load for the compressor.
Most shelves are adjustable. In models with glass shelves, these shelves stop short
an inch before the back wall. This is essential for air flow and the proper operation of
the automatic defrost system. Do not block these gaps.
The interior light for the FF7LBLPUB and SCR600BL series models is controlled by a
manually-operated rocker switch. To maintain the proper interior temperature, keep
the light on only as long as necessary and turn it off before closing the door.
If the Pub Cellar is unplugged, has lost power or is turned off, you must wait 3 to 5
minutes before restarting it. If you attempt to restart before this time delay, the unit
will not start.
16
Care and Maintenance
Cleaning Your Appliance:
1. Unplug the appliance and remove all contents, including shelves.
2. Wash the inside surfaces with a solution of lukewarm water and vinegar. Wipe dry
with a clean, soft cloth.
3. Wash the shelves and any other interior accessories with a mild detergent solution,
then rinse and dry thoroughly.
4. Wash the outside cabinet with a solution of warm water and mild liquid detergent.
Rinse well and wipe dry with a clean soft cloth.
5. For stainless steel surfaces, routine cleaning can be accomplished by using warm
water and a cloth. Dry with a towel or cloth to prevent water spots. Wipe in the
directions of the brush lines. For cleaning that needs more power, you can use a mild
detergent in warm water. Make sure to rinse the surface thoroughly to prevent
staining and spotting. Towel dry.
6. Wring excess water out of the sponge or cloth before cleaning the area of the digital
thermostat or any electrical parts.
7. From time to time, wipe the condenser on the outer rear wall with
a soft non-metallic brush or vacuum cleaner. See illustration.
8. After you have cleaned the appliance, reconnect it to the power
supply and return all contents to their place.
CAUTION: Failure to unplug the unit before cleaning could result in
electrical shock or personal injury.
Power Failure:
Most power failures are corrected within a few hours and should not affect the
temperature of your appliance if you minimize the number of times the door is opened. If
the power is going to be off for a longer period of time, you need to take the proper steps
to protect your chilled items.
Vacation Time:
During long absences, remove all contents. Unplug the appliance, clean it and leave the
door open slightly to avoid possible formation of condensation, mold or odors.
Moving Your Appliance:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
Remove the contents.
Securely tape down all shelving inside your unit.
Turn the leveling legs up to the base to avoid damage.
Tape the door shut.
Be sure the appliance stays secure in the upright position during transportation.
Energy-Saving Tips:
• The unit should be located in the coolest area of the room, away from heat-producing
appliances or heating ducts and out of direct sunlight.
• Try not to open the door too often, especially when the weather is damp and hot.
Once you open the door, close it as soon as possible.
• Occasionally check if the appliance is sufficiently ventilated (adequate air circulation
behind the appliance).
17
Troubleshooting
When using this appliance, you may come across some problems that in many cases
result from improper handling and can easily be eliminated.
TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
The appliance fails to operate after being connected to the power source.
• Check whether the power supply is active.
The compressor is running continuously.
• The door was opened frequently or it was left open too long.
• The door is not properly closed (the door may sag or the gasket may be dirty or
damaged).
• The power supply has been interrupted for a long period of time.
• There may be inadequate ventilation of the compressor and condenser. (Assure
there is adequate air circulation behind the appliance and wipe the dust from the
condenser.)
Noise
• Cooling in refrigerating appliances is enabled by the refrigeration system with a
compressor, which produces noise. How noisy the appliance is depends on where
it is placed, how it is used and how old the appliance is.
• During the operation of the compressor, the noise of liquid is heard and when the
compressor is not operating, the refrigerant flow is heard. This is a normal
condition and has no influence whatsoever on the lifetime of the appliance.
• After starting the appliance, the operation of the compressor and the refrigerant
flow may be louder. This does not mean that something is wrong. Gradually the
noise is reduced.
• Sometimes a louder noise is heard, which is unusual for the appliance. This noise
is often a consequence of improper placement of the unit. (The unit should be
placed and leveled firmly on a solid base and it should not touch the wall or
cabinets standing next to it.)
