BEFORE USING FOR THE FIRST TIME
These instructions are important, and we request you read them before using this beer cooler.
They describe the appliance and the correct and safe way to use it.
The instructions were prepared for various models so you may find descriptions of some
accessories and functions that do not apply to yours. These units are designed for the cooling
and dispensing of beer only, and are not recommended for storing perishable foods such as
meats or dairy products.
Before connecting the appliance to the power supply, leave it standing for a least 8 hours. This
allows the refrigerant to drain back into the compressor and reduces the risk of malfunctions in
the cooling system caused by shipping.
Clean the appliance thoroughly, especially the interior. (See Cleaning the Beer Cooler, pages
10-11.) Proper grounding must be ensured to reduce the risk of shock and fire. Do not cut or
remove the grounding plug! Connect to a 120V, 60Hz grounded AC outlet having a minimum 15
amps. Do not use an extension cord. Use a three-prong plug with a three-prong grounded wall
outlet. If you do not have one, have a certified electrician install the proper outlet.
UNPACKING THE BEER COOLER
Remove tape, and clean off any residual glue from the appliance surfaces before turning the
unit on. Apply some liquid dish detergent over the residue with your fingers, wipe down using
warm water, then dry.
In order to prevent damage to the surface of your beer cooler, do not use rubbing alcohol,
flammable fluids, abrasive cleaners or sharp tools when removing the packing tape and glue.
Discard or recycle all packaging material.
Clean the inside of your appliance prior to operation. Refer to the Cleaning the Beer Cooler
section on pages 10-11.
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
Before moving your appliance into its desired location, it is important to check that the proper
electrical connection will be used.
Recommended grounding method
A 115 Volt, 60 Hz., AC only, 15- or 20-amp fused, grounded electrical supply is required.
It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only your refrigerator be provided. Use an
outlet that cannot be turned off by a switch.
Do not use an extension cord.
Use a three-prong plug with a three-prong grounded wall outlet. If you do not have one,
have a certified electrician install the proper outlet.
NOTE: Be sure to unplug the beer cooler prior to installation, cleaning or general
maintenance such as changing the light bulb.
WARNING:
• Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
• Do not remove ground prong.
• Do not use an adapter.
• Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in fire, electrical shock or death.
