● Connect the unit to the suggested voltage mentioned on the system
specications.
● Do not install the unit close to inammables.
● The unit is not a children’s toy !
4. Positioning the unit
Do not position the wine dispenser near sources of heat, such as sto-
ves, heating radiators etc.
The wine dispenser must not be exposed to the sunshine constantly.
When installing the wine dispenser at a proper place, you should wait
for an approximate hour before putting the unit in operation.
Ventilation holes + panels on the back and on sides of the dispenser
should never be covered up. The back side should be placed 8 cm
from the wall as a minimum and the side of the wine dispenser should
be 10 cm free to provide for air supply.
The wine dispenser should be positioned on a at even surface to
avoid excessive noise caused by vibrations.
Notice:
● If the wine dispenser is built in, space between the walls and the
dispenser should be allowed to provide air circulation.
● Never place the wine dispenser on its side.
5. Electrical connection
To protect the user, the wine dispenser should always be connected to
a grounded socket.
Safety-related instructions (continued)

• 5 •
Only the earthed plugs are allowed for use.
The required voltage depends on the mentioned specications inside
the Wine Dispenser.
6. Recommendation regarding the wine
Wine temperature at drinking:
White wine & rose wine : 6 - 9 °C
Red wine : 16 - 19 °C
● Do not let the bottles of white wine lean against the back wall. The
bottles could get frozen.
● Before putting the dispenser in operation, it is recommended to cle-
an the inner side of the unit following the cleaning guide.
● Place the bottles so that those being served and those yet to be
opened are placed in the dispenser close to each other. Do not
leave the sliding door open. It is better to open the dispenser more
times and close it again than to leave the dispenser opened for
several minutes. By doing this you will avoid ice and condensation
growing inside the unit.
7. Nitrogen replacement and check
If the pressure in the nitrogen bottle drops and the wine pour is incon-
sistent, check if the nitrogen bottle isn’t empty. Use the pressure gau-
ge (A) to nd the nitrogen status. If the gauge show 0 (zero) or nearly
zero, replace the nitrogen bottle.
8. Properties of nitrogen in use are as follows
Molecular formula: N2
Molecular weight: 28 g
Odourless, colourless. Non-toxic, inammable.
9. Preservation
Air and wine do not mix well with each other. In the course of serving
wine, the air is inevitable and may cause an undesired contact of wine
and oxygen, oxygenation of enzymes and deterioration of colour and
taste of the wine.
By adding a blanket of nitrogen to the wine you are able to preserve
the installed bottle for a minimum of 14 days.
The wine dispenser adds nitrogen gas in the emptied volume of the
bottle when pouring wine in a glass. Preventing direct contact of the
wine in the bottle with oxygen.
◄

The bottle remains sealed at all times therefore keeping the wine fre-
sh, clean and bacteria free.
By preserving the wine with a inert gas the wine can be kept as inten-
ded for 15 to 20 days without any changes of physical, chemical or
organic properties.

gauges on the unit. The small one gives reading of the pressure in
the bottle from 0 to 250 bar while the large one shows the pressure
in the pipeline from 0 to 6 bar.
● Usually, the nitrogen bottle volume may range from 150 to 200 kg/
cm2. The pressure in the pipeline should be between 0,1 and a ma-
ximum of 0,4 bar. Higher pressure may negatively effect the opera-
tion of the system.
● The pressure can be adjusted manually. Pull the pressure gauge
plastic cover forward. The pressure can be controlled by turning
the plastic surrounding of the large dial. The pressure increases by
turning clockwise and decreases by turning it anti clockwise. After
setting the correct pressure level the plastic cover can be pushed
back again, which maintains and locks the setting.
● Instructions regarding how to change the bottle and check of the ni-
trogen are to be found in the article “Nitrogen exchange and check”
(point 7).

General maintenance and defrosting
16. Inner and outer cleaning of the Wine Dispenser
Inner and outer side of the wine dispenser should be cleaned with a
slightly wet cloth. Never use high-pressure cleaners.
Notice:
Furthermore, never use chemicals, petrol, alcohol, detergents, disin-
fectants vinegar, oil, acids, abrasives, caustics etc. for cleaning the
wine dispenser. These materials could cause ragged and oxygenated
places on the stainless steel.
17. Pipelines cleaning
As wine – red wine in particular – contains precipitates, it is recom-
mended to clean the metal tap/spout regularly.
Using a wire brush or a cloth pipe cleaner it is possible to remove se-
diments in the metal tap/spout to avoid clogging.
It is of great importance that the wine dispenser is always maintained
in a clean and proper state. Failure to do so will result in reduced hygi-
ene, turn over, and may mean a shorter life span of the wine dispenser.
Besides regular cleaning of the dispenser by ushing it through with
cold water (recommended at least once a week) is it also highly advi-
sable to clean with a solution of lukewarm water and citric acid (10%) .
This will prevent problems that might occur due to sediment or tartaric
acid present in wine. Never use lemon juice.
