• Risk of child entrapment. Before you throw away your old refrigerator or freezer:
- Take off the doors.
- Leave the shelves in place so that children may not easily climb inside.
• Plug into a grounded 3-prong outlet. Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the
third ground prong from the power cord supplied, do not use an adapter, and do not use an
extension cord.
• It is recommended that a separate circuit, serving only your appliance be used. Do not use
outlets that can be turned off by a switch or pull chain.
• Never clean appliance parts with flammable fluids and do not store or use gasoline or
other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance. The fumes
can create a fire hazard or explosion.
• Unplug the appliance 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 appliance unless it is specifically
recommended in this manual. All other servicing should be referred to a qualified technician.
• The refrigerator must be disconnected from the source of electrical supply before
attempting the installation and that the accessory is intended for use only with a refrigerator
that is marked to indicate such use.
• Use two or more people to move and install appliance. Failure to do so can result in back
or other injury.
• To ensure proper ventilation for your appliance, 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 element, such
as wind, rain, water spray or drips.
• The appliance should not be located next to ovens, grills or other high heat sources or in
areas of extreme cold.

• The appliance must be installed 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 ordinances is required.
• Do not kink or pinch the power supply cord of appliance.
• The fuse (or circuit breaker) size should be 15 amperes.
• It is important for the appliance to be leveled in order to work properly. You may need to
make several adjustments to level it.
• Never allow children to operate, play with or crawl inside the appliance. Child entrapment
and suffocation are not just problems of the past, junked or abandoned appliances are still
dangerous. When no longer using your old kegerator, take off the door and leave the
shelves in place so that children may not climb inside easily.
• Do not use solvent-based cleansers or abrasives on the interior as they may damage or
discolor the interior.
• Because of potential safety hazards under certain conditions, it is strongly recommended
that you do not use an extension cord with this appliance. However, if you must use an
extension cord, it is absolutely necessary that it be a UL/CUL-Listed, 3-wire grounding type
appliance extension cord having a grounding type plug and outlet and that the electrical
rating of the cord be 115 volts and at least 10 amperes.
• If the appliance is going to be used in an area that is prone to power surges/outages, it is
suggested that you use a power surge protector. The surge protector that you select must
have a surge block high enough to protect the appliance it is connected to. Damages due to
power surges are not considered a manufacturer covered defect and will void your product
warranty.
• The cord should be secured behind the appliance and not left exposed or dangling to
prevent accidental injury. Never unplug the appliance by pulling the power cord. Always grip
the plug firmly and pull straight out from the receptacle. Repair or replace immediately all
power cords that have become frayed or otherwise damaged. Do not use a cord with cracks
or abrasion damage along its length or at either end. When moving the appliance, be
careful not to damage the power cord.
• Do not use this apparatus for other than its intended purpose.

Installation Instructions
BEFORE USE:
• Remove the exterior and interior packaging.
• Before connecting the unit to the power source, let it stand upright for approximately 2
hours. This will reduce the possibility of a malfunction in the cooling system from handling
during transportation.
• Clean the interior surface with lukewarm water using a soft cloth.
• This appliance is designed for free standing installation.
• Place the unit on a flat, solid floor that is strong enough to support it when it is fully loaded.
To level the appliance, adjust the front leveling leg at the bottom of the unit.
• When moving your kegerator, please do not incline it more than 45 degrees.
• Locate the appliance away from direct sunlight and sources of heat (stove, heater, radiator,
etc.). Direct sunlight may affect the acrylic coating and heat sources may increase electrical
consumption.
• The kegerator should be placed in an area where the ambient temperature is less than 90
degrees Fahrenheit and higher than the lowest temperature you want to store your kegs at.
If the ambient temperature is lower than the set temperature, the internal temperature will
match the ambient temperature.
• Avoid locating the unit in damp areas.
• Plug the kegerator 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 electrical grounding should be directed to a certified
electrician or authorized products service center.
• After plugging the appliance into a wall outlet, allow the unit to cool down for 3 to 4 hours
before placing a keg or any other items in the appliance.

Assembly Instructions
CO2 Cylinder Support Installation
Install the cylinder support onto the four studs located on the exterior back wall of the
cabinet. No tools are required, simply align the holes in the cylinder support with the studs
and push down firmly.
Tower Gasket Installation
Before installation the beer tower, position the rubber beer tower gasket directly on top of
the cabinet, aligning the four holes in the gasket with the four holes on the cabinet.
Beer Tower Installation
After installation the tower gasket, unravel the beer line hose from the tower and insert the
beer line and nut through the gasket and into the tower. Align the four holes in the base of
the beer tower with the gasket and the bayonet. The beer faucet should be facing the front
of the cabinet. Using a Phillips screwdriver, attach the beer tower to the cabinet with the four
mechanical screws provided. Tighten firmly.
Protective Plate (Pre-Installed)
To prevent the floor of the keg cooler cabinet from being unnecessarily damaged, the
protective plate should always be installed when the keg stand is being used. The protective
plate also makes it easier to install and remove the keg and the keg stand.
Installing the Beer Keg and Beer Keg Stand
The keg stand requires only 30 liters (1/4 barrel) of "pony" style kegs. To install, position the
keg stand directly in front of the open kegerator cabinet. Then, using the proper lifting
technique, carefully lift the beer keg by the handles and place it onto the keg stand.
Brace your knees behind the keg stand and grasp the keg stand handles. Lift the front of the

stand handles and carefully slide the keg stand all the way into the keg cooler.
Operation Instructions
The kegerator should be placed at an ambient temperature between 32-100 degrees
Fahrenheit. The unit's performance may be affected if the ambient temperature is above or
below this range. For example, placing your team in extremely cold or hot conditions may
cause the interior temperatures to fluctuate.
When you first plug in your kegerator, the LED display will show the “live” cabinet
