Installation

1. Carefully remove the unit from its packaging and check to see that no parts are

missing or damaged. (keeping small plastic parts away from children at all times)

2. Place the dispenser on a steady flat surface leaving at least 4" on either side for

proper ventilation.

3. Place the drip tray in the notch provided on the front of the unit.

4. Screw the Tap Handle into the tap and tighten.

5. Plug the appliance into a 110VAC or 12V DC electrical outlet using the proper cord

Note: Unit is not intended for use with 50 Hz outlets. (European Standard)

Preparing the keg

First you must determine which type of keg you are using. There are two basic types,

Pressurized (with CO2 built in) and Standard.

Before installation make sure that the keg has rested long enough to avoid foam

coming out through the ventilation opening, also cold beer will produce less foam than

warm beer, so pre-chilling the beer in refrigerator for 6-12 hours is advised. (Your

beer dispenser can cool a 5-Litre keg from 77°F to 41°F in 9 hours.)

Warning: Never put a keg into the freezer. The beer might be damaged and the

keg might burst.

Pressurized Kegs

1. You will not need any of the parts that come with

the keg (Tap and nozzle) Instead of those parts

you will be using the Pressurized Keg Adapter, as

shown in figure 1.

Figure 1

2. Open the door and locate the two tubes that come

from the front of the dispenser. For pressurized

kegs you will only need the tube that connects

directly to the tap. tt has the male connector (the

female connector has a white button on it)

Connects to Tap

Figure 2

Pressurized Kegs (cont)

3. Press the Tap-Hose connector into the pressur-

ized keg adaptor until it locks. Pull lightly on

connector to ensure that you have a tight fit.

Figure 3

4. You can now place the keg inside the dispenser.

Turn the keg so that the tube is not folded and

proper flow is not obstructed as is shown in

Figure 4. (the other hose will hang freely on the

side)

Figure 4

You are now ready to enjoy your beer, for proper pouring instructions read the section

called "Operation" on page 9.

Standard Kegs

1. For all non-pressurized kegs you will first want to follow the instructions that came

with the keg for releasing excess gas. Then you will want to determine which type

of plug your keg has. the types are listed below

Note: Combined Plugs and

Vent Plugs Look identical

from the top.

Rubber Plug Combined or Vent Plug

2. a: Rubber Plug. You will simply push the plug into the keg until it falls in, you can

use the tube end of the Standard Keg Adapter to push it through.

b: Combined or Ventplug. You will want to remove the entire plug and replace it

with one of the keg seals included with your dispenser. Depending on which type

of plug you have you may need to use pliers to remove it, you will want to take

caution not to bend the metal around the plug as this could cause an air leak. tt

is common for part or all of the plug to fall into the keg during this step, this is

normal and it will not affect the flavor of your beer.

Standard Kegs (cont)

3. Insert the standard keg adapter into the keg and lock it

in place as shown in figure 5 and 6.

Figure 5 Figure 6

5. Locate the the two tubes comming from the front of

the unit. Connect both of them to their corrosponding

adapter (they will only go in one way). Push them in

until they click to ensure a proper seal.

6. Place the keg into the dispenser taking care not to

fold the tubing or restrict proper flow of the beer. You

are now ready to connect the C02 assembly.

Connecting the C02 assembly

1. Locate the C02 regulator and turn the

valve counterclockwise until it stops to

ensure tht the valve is shut.

2. Connect the regulator adapter to the bottom of the

regulator as shown in figure 7.

3. Open the compartment on the side of the dispenser

to reveal the gas cartridge chamber and locate the

unconnected tube coming from the beer keg. Push

this tube into the open hole on the regulator. (to dis-

connect, push in the ring on the end while pulling

the tube)

Connectingthe002 assembly (cont)

4. Place a new 002 Cartridge into the cartridge holder and screw it firmly to the regu-

lator adaptor, you may hear a sound once the cartridge is pierced. Once attached

do not unscrew the cartridge until all the pressure has been released (see Removal

and Cleaning on page 10)

5. At this point the system should be completely connected, you should now slowly

turn the regulator clockwise to pressurize the system. The dial on the gauge will

rise gradually, stop when it reaches 0.5 bar.

6. With the pressure correctly set you can now place

the whole CO2 assembly on the assembly stand

and put it in the dispenser with the gauge facing

the clear window.

7. Slide the CO2 compartment door into place and

now you will be ready to enjoy your beer.

Operation

• Always use clean glasses rinsed with very cold water at the time of serving. Impu-

rities prevent the foam from forming on the glass.

• Hold the glass under the dispensing tap, making sure that the nozzle is not in con-

tact with the glass.

• Pull the dispensing tap handle towards you while holding the glass at an angle.

The quantity of foam depends on the glass angle. Set the glass upright as the

beer level goes up.

• Push the tap handle forward when the foam reaches the glass brim. This will stop

the beer from flowing.

Setting the temperature

Use the up and down arrow buttons to set the desired temperature

Note: The dispenser has a range between 38° F and 54° F

the third button allows you to turn on an off the display to conserve

energy when it is not being used.

cartridge is empty, replace it as follows:

1. Shut the pressure gauge valve. (turn it counterclockwise)
