BUILT-IN INSTALLATION

Select Location

The proper location will ensure peak performance of your appliance. Choose a location where the unit will be out of direct sunlight and away from heat sources. Units with fan cooled condensers can be built-in.

Unit should be operated in a properly ventilated area with ambient temperatures above 40oF (4.4oC) and below 110oF (43oC). Installation should be such that the cabinet can be moved for servicing if necessary.

Cabinet Clearance

Ventilation is required from the bottom front section of the unit. Keep this area open and clear of any obstructions. The adjacent cabinets and countertop can be built around the unit as long as no top trim or counter top is installed lower than the top of the hinge.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

2

CASTERS

Your beverage dispenser is equipped with four casters. the front two casters can be locked.

For built-in applications, the four casters can be removed by removing the nut located inside the dispenser cabinet and then pulling the threaded caster spindle through the base of the unit.

If removing the casters is necessary for installation, the unit should be raised off the ground. This should be done with an approved material.

(Consult local building codes for approved material.)

LEVEL UNIT

1.After placing unit in position, check to make certain the unit is level side to side and front to back.

2.Accurate leveling is essential for proper operation.

FINAL PREPARATION

???All stainless steel parts should be wiped with hot soapy water. If buildup occurs, do not use steel wool, abrasive cloths, cleaners, or powders. If it is necessary to scrape stainless steel to remove encrusted materials, soak with hot, wet cloths to loosen the material, then use a wood or nylon scraper. Do not use a metal knife, spatula, or any other metal tool to scrape stainless steel; scratches are almost impossible to remove.

GENERAL TIPS AND SUGGESTIONS

???After making a temperature change, allow 24 hours for your unit to reach a new temperature setting. ???The motor will start and stop often. It must do this to maintain the temperature you select.

???Unplug the appliance before working on anything with the electrical system.

???Exercise caution when sweeping, vacuuming, or mopping near the front of the unit. Damage to the grill can occur. ???For all cleaning, mix 2 tablespoons baking soda with 1 quart warm water or use mild soapy and water solution. Do not use strong cleaners or scouring powder or pads.

???Keep your appliance out of direct sunlight.

???Do not splash or spray water on or under the unit.

???Clean you appliance???s condenser periodically to maintain proper cooling performance.

WIRING DIAGRAM

24??? W. REFRIGERATED BEVERAGE DISPENSER

WARNING: ELECTRICAL GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This appliance is equipped with a three prong grounding plug for your protection against shock hazard and should be plugged directly into a properly grounded three prong receptacle. Do not cut or remove the grounding prong from this plug.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

SETTING THE CONTROL

NOTE: The control is factory set for the ideal draft beer temperature - 38oF (3.3oC). (Temperature setting may need adjustments depending on ambient temperature.)

Initially set the cold control knob midway between the numbers. Allow at least 48 hours for the unit to stabilize before making any adjustments to the initial temperture setting The higher the number, the cooler the temperature.

The temperature control knob is located at the bottom front of the cabinet, just behind the square opening near the middle of the grill.

Draft beer is not pasteurized, so it must be kept cold - preferably around 38oF (3.3oC). Temperatures above 45oF

(7.2oC) may cause the beer to become wild, turn sour and cloudy. Draft beer should be consumed within 30 days, as it is not pasteurized and loses its original brewery fresh taste and aroma the older it gets.

11

HOW TO DRAW THE PERFECT GLASS OF BEER

1.Start with a clean beer 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.

3.Let the remaining beer run straight down the middle. This insures proper release of CO2 by producing a 3/4??? to 1??? foam head.

2.After the glass has reached half full, gradually bring the glass to an upright position.

4.Close the faucet completely and quickly.

COMMON DRAFT PROBLEMS

ENERGY SAVING TIPS

Ways to save power, save money, and still enjoy your beverage dispenser.

???Adjust the temperature control to a warmer setting when practical. ???Keep unit away from the stove or other heat sources.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Condenser

The condenser tubing under the cabinet for forced air units does not require frequent cleaning. However, satisfactory cooling depends on adequate ventilation over the condenser. Be sure that nothing obstructs the air flow openings in the lower front of the cabinet. At least once or twice a year brush or vacuum lint and dirt from the condenser for efficient performance by unscrewing the grill on the bottom front of the cabinet.

Cabinet

The painted cabinet can be washed with mild soap and water and thoroughly rinsed with clear water. Never use abrasive scouring powders.

Interior and Door Gasket

Wash interior compartment with mild soap and water. Mix 2 tablespoons of baking soda with one quart of warm water. Do not use an abrasive powder, solvent, polish cleaner or undiluted detergent.
