Your Beverage Center has two leveling legs which are located in the front
corners. After properly placing your Beverage Center in its final position,
you can level your Beverage Center.
•
Leveling legs can be adjusted by turning them clockwise to lower your
Beverage Center or by turning them counterclockwise to raise your
Beverage Center. The Beverage Center door will close more easily when
the two front leveling legs are extended slightly.
•
To ensure that your Beverage Center works at the maximum eciency it
was designed for, you should install it in a location where there is proper air
circulation and electrical connections.
• The following are recommended clearances around the beverage center:
Sides……………2" (50mm)

INSTALLING YOUR BEVERAGE CENTER
Electrical Requirement
• Make sure there is a suitable power outlet (115 volts, 15 amps outlet) with
proper grounding to power the Beverage Center.
• Avoid the use of three prong adapters or cutting o the third grounding
prong in order to accommodate a two prong outlet. This is a dangerous
practice since it provides no eective grounding for the Beverage Center
and may result in shock hazard.
• Do not install your Beverage Center in any location not properly insulated
or heated (e.g., garage etc.). Your Beverage Center was not designed to
operate in ambient temperature settings below 55°F Fahrenheit.
• Select a suitable location for the Beverage Center on a hard even surface
away from direct sunlight or heat source (e.g., radiators, baseboard heaters,
cooking appliances, etc.). Any floor unevenness should be corrected with
the leveling legs located on the front and rear bottom corners of the
Beverage Center.
• Your Beverage Center is designed for freestanding installation only. It is not
designed for built-in application.
Note: This unit is for indoor use only.
• Avoid the use of an extension cord because of potential safety hazards
under certain conditions. If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use only
a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding plug and a 3-slot
outlet that will accept the plug. The marked rating of the extension cord
must be equal to or greater than the electrical rating of the appliance.

following steps to eectively cool a large number of beverages.
1. Use the Adjustable Thermostat Control to set the temperature to 43°F (also
the default temperature).
2. Allow the beverage center to cool for a minimum of two hours.
3. Load the beverages. To achieve maximum capacity, refer to the loading
diagrams.
4. After initially filling with beverages the internal temperature will rise as
indicated on the display.
5. Once the beverage center has cooled the beverages to 43°F, use the
Adjustable Thermostat Control to select a desired cooler internal
temperature (lowest temperature setting is 40°F).
6. Allow several hours for the beverage center to cool to the desired lower
temperature.
Note: It is normal for temperature variances to occur inside the unit, and areas
near the door will have slightly warmer temperatures.

Cleaning and Maintenance
Warning: To avoid electric shock, always unplug your beverage center
before cleaning. Ignoring this warning may result in death
or njury.
Caution: Before using cleaning products, always read and follow
manufacturer’s instructions and warnings to avoid personal
injury or product damage.
General: • Prepare a cleaning solution of 3-4 tablespoons of baking soda
mixed with warm water. Use sponge or soft cloth, dampened
with the cleaning solution, to wipe down your beverage center.
•
Rinse with clean warm water and dry with a soft cloth.
•
•
Do not use harsh chemicals, abrasives, ammonia, chlorine bleach,
concentrated detergents, solvents or metal scouring pads. Some
of these chemicals may dissolve, damage and/or discolor your
Beverage Center.
Door Gaskets: • Clean door gaskets every three months according to general
instructions. Gaskets must be kept clean and pliable to assure a
proper seal.
Petroleum jelly applied lightly on the hinge side of gaskets will
keep the gasket pliable and ensure a good seal.
Defrosting Your Beverage Center
Your Beverage Center is designed with a manual defrost system. The Beverage Center
surfaces will defrost, when the unit is unplug. Water from the unit is disposed of
automatically, by means of being channeled onto a drip tray located on the compressor.
Heat transfer from the compressor causes this water to evaporate.
Power Interruptions
• Occasionally there may be power interruptions due to thunderstorms or other causes.
Remove the power cord from AC outlet when a power outage occurs. When power
has been restored, replug power cord to AC outlet.
• The unit will revert to the factory setting of 46 ° F after any power outage. Reset your
temperature selection.
Vacation and Moving Care
• For long vacations or absences, empty contents from Beverage Center, unplug the
unit and clean the Beverage Center and door gaskets according to “General cleaning”
section. Prop doors open, so air can circulate inside. When moving, always move the
Beverage Center vertically. Do not move with the unit lying down. Possible damage to
the sealed system could occur.
