Cleaning & Maintenance Flushing the tubes

OPERATING YOUR KEGERATOR

Note: It is normal to see condensation form on the faucet. It is caused by the difference of temperature between the cold beer and the inside of the faucet when beer is flowing through the line.

Cleaning & Maintenance Flushing the tubes

Follow the steps below to clean the keg tap and hoses. (See Illustration on the right.)

1.Turn off CO2 completely before attempting to clean.

2.Remove the hose from the coupler and carefully twist the dispenser faucet off on the top of the kegerator.

Detach beer line

Flush hose with water

3.Ensure that the dispenser handle is in the down position before flushing the hose. If this is not set correctly, water cannot flow through. Hold the open end of the hose under running water for 3-5

minutes, while the beer dispenser faucet drains into the sink. This will clear any excess beer that is trapped inside, helping to prevent any bacteria or mold that could accumulate inside.

4.In order to clean and remove any excess beer that may leak into the unit space inside the door, remove the black rubber insulation and wipe with a wet towel as needed.

Storage & Care

Follow the guidelines below to care for your kegerator when not in use.

ŸPlease adjust the temperature control dial to MID or LOW in colder environments because this unit does not self-defrost and ice may build up inside the unit. The

temperature control dial is located inside the cabinet of the kegerator

.

ŸAlways rinse the beer line if you do not intend to use your kegerator for a period of time. First, turn off the CO2 and dispense beer until it stops. This will release pressure in the keg so that the coupler can safely be detached.

ŸTo avoid permanent damage to the unit, never use sharp objects inside the

kegerator.
