freezers are still dangerous – even if
they will sit for “just a few days.” If
you are getting rid of your old
refrigerator or freezer, please follow
the instructions below to help
prevent accidents.
Before you throw away your old
refrigerator/ freezer:
• Remove doors.
• Leave shelves in place so children may not easily climb
inside.
• Have refrigerant removed by a qualified service
technician.
ELECTRICAL INFORMATION
•The beverage center must be plugged into its own
dedicated 115 Volt, 60 Hz., AC only electric outlet. The
power cord of the appliance is equipped with a three-
prong grounding plug for your protection against electrical
shock hazards. It must be plugged directly into a properly
grounded three-prong receptacle. The receptacle must be
installed in accordance with local codes and ordinances.
Consult a qualified electrician. Do not use an extension
cord or adapter plug.
• If the power cord is damaged, it should be replaced by the
manufacturer, service technician or a qualified person to
prevent any risk.
• Never unplug this beverage center by pulling on the
power cord. Always grip the plug firmly, and pull straight
out from the receptacle to prevent damaging the power
cord.
• Unplug this beverage center before cleaning and before
replacing a light bulb to avoid electrical shock.
• Performance may be affected if the voltage varies by 10%
or more. Operating this beverage center with insufficient
power can damage the compressor. Such damage is not
covered under your warranty.
• Do not plug the unit into an outlet controlled by a wall
switch or pull cord to prevent this beverage center from
being turned off accidentally.

FIRST STEPS (continued)
OPERATINGTHE BEVERAGE CENTER
• Make sure that the beverage center is plugged in properly
to a 115V, 60Hz AC only electrical outlet. Refer to
Electrical Information on page 6.
• Make sure that the drip tray and sump are secured under
the faucet.
• Start with a clean beverage glass that has been wetted in
cold water. Place the glass at a 45º 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.
NOTENOTE
NOTENOTE
NOTE
It is normal to see condensation forming around the faucet.
This condensation is caused by the temperature difference
between the cold beverage and the inner surfaces of the
faucet when beverage is being drawn through the line.
• Let the remaining beverage run straight down the middle.
This insures proper release of CO2by producing a ¾” to a
1" foam head.
• Close the faucet completely and quickly.
HOWTO REPLACE AN EMPTY CO2CANISTER
• Remove hoses from routing clips.
• Remove the keg, then remove CO2 canister.
• Close the canister valve of the empty canister by turning
clockwise until it stops.
• Close the regulator shut-off valve by moving it to the 9
o’clock position.
• Carefully remove regulator from the empty CO2canister by
loosening the nut with an adjustable wrench. Check the
condition of the gasket inside the nut and replace if
necessary.
• Return canister to your local carbonic gas source for filling.
(We suggest the customer look in the yellow pages under
“Carbonic Gas”. Sources of CO2vary from community to
community but it is often available at welding supply
stores and beverage distributors.)
• Remove dust cap from new canister nut, if any.
• With the canister valve still in closed position, reattach the
regulator to the new canister using an adjustable wrench.
Ensure the plastic washer is inside of the nut. Tighten nut
until it feels snug but be careful not to over tighten as you
will damage the gasket inside the stem nut.
• Check to make sure that the braided gas line hose is still
securely attached to the regulator.
• Open the canister valve all the way by turning counter-
clockwise until it stops. This valve seals at both the fully
open and fully closed positions. Failure to completely open
or close the valve could result in premature loss of CO2
pressure.
• Open the regulator shut-off valve by moving it down to the
6 o’clock position.
• Check gauge pressure. Adjust the regulator adjustment
screw as necessary until the pressure reads between 12
to 14 psi. Tighten the adjustment lock nut.
• Replace keg and route hose clips.

preferably at 38ºF. Temperatures above 38ºF may cause
the beer to become wild, turn sour and cloudy.
RECOMMENDED KEG HANDLING
• Be sure the keg is cold when you purchase it.
• Transfer keg from place of purchase and install in
beverage center in 2 hours or less.
• After the keg is installed in the beverage center, allow 24
hours for beverage to reach recommended temperature.
• If the keg is exposed to ambient temperatures longer than
2 hours, additional cooling time will be required before
beverage will reach recommended temperature.

OPTIONAL ICE SERVICE
If the beverage center has anoptional automatic ice maker installed , it
will provide a sufficient supply of ice for normal use. However, during
the initial startup of your beverage center, no ice will be produced
during the first 24 hours of operation. Automatic ice makers are also
optional accessories that may be installed in most models at any time.
Call your local dealer for information.
The ice maker produces 2 to 5 pounds of ice every 24 hours
depending on usage conditions. Ice is produced at a rate of 8
cubes every 80 to 160 minutes.
TURNING THE ICE MAKER ON
After the plumbing connections have been completed, the water
supply valve must be opened. Place the ice container under the ice
maker, pushing it as far back as possible. Lower the wire signal arm to
its “down” or ON position. New plumbing connections may cause the
first production of ice cubes to be discolored or have an odd flavor.
These first cubes should be discarded until the cubes produced are free
of discoloration and odd flavor.

NORMAL OPERATING SOUNDS & SIGHTS
UNDERSTANDINGTHE SOUNDSYOU MAY HEAR
The new high-efficiency beverage center may make unfamiliar sounds.
These are all normal sounds and soon will become familiar to you.
They also indicate your beverage center is operating as designed. Hard
surfaces, such as vinyl or wood floors, walls, and kitchen cabinets may
make sounds more noticeable. Listed below are descriptions of some
of the most common sounds you may hear, and what is causing them.
A. Evaporator
The flow of refrigerant through the evaporator may
create a boiling or gurgling sound.
B. Evaporator Fan
You may hear air being forced through the beverage
center by the evaporator fan.
C. Defrost Heater
During defrost cycles, water dripping onto the defrost
heater may cause a hissing or sizzling sound. After
defrosting, a popping sound may occur.
D. Automatic Ice Maker
If your beverage center is equipped with an automatic ice
maker, you will hear ice cubes falling into the ice bin.
E. Cold Control & DefrostTimer or Automatic
Defrost Control
These parts can produce a snapping or clicking sound
when turning the beverage center on and off. The timer
also produces sounds similar to an electric clock.
F. Condenser Fan
If condenser coils are located underneath your beverage
center as shown in the drawing at the left, you have a
condenser fan. You may hear air being forced through the
condenser by the condenser fan.
G. Compressor
Modern, high-efficiency compressors operate much
faster than older models. The compressor may have a
high-pitched hum or pulsating sound.
H. WaterValve
If your beverage center is equipped with an automatic ice
maker, you will hear a buzzing sound as the water valve
opens to fill the ice maker during each cycle.
I. Drain Pan (Nonremovable)
You may hear water running into the drain pan during
the defrost cycle. The drain pan is located on top of the
compressor for air-cooled condensers (black coils
on back of beverage center).
J. Condenser Coils (Fan-cooled models only)
May create minimal sounds from forced air.
