With Standard 5 Liter Mini Kegs & 5L Beverage Container
The beverage dispenser is compatible with different adapters that work with standard 5
liter mini kegs and the provided beverage container. These adapters ensure that the
kegs and container as specified in this manual can be used with the unit.
This appliance uses compressed air to control the pressure of the standard mini kegs
or the beverage container which allows it to dispense the beverage. Air is pumped into
the standard mini keg or the container to force the beverage out and into your glass.
Important Notice: Sanitation
Handling mini kegs, containers, tubes, adapters, and pipes which come in contact with beverages
requires
special care and attention to sanitation. It is important to clean the tubes, adapters, pipes,
and
the beverage dispenser itself thoroughly before and after each use.
Please comply with the following principles:
• Clean all parts of the appliance that come in contact with beverages thoroughly after
each use (refer to
“Care and Cleaning”
on page 18).
• If in doubt, clean all parts before using.
• Clean all parts when changing a mini keg or the container.
IMPORTANT
• Please dispose of all old and unused appliances in
accordance with your local ordinances.
SETTING UP YOUR BEVERAGE DISPENSER
9
Find a suitable area for the dispenser. Do not place the dispenser outside, in direct sunlight, or in
any other location where the dispenser will be exposed to water or other harsh conditions. The
dispenser
should not be placed in environments where the ambient temperature drops below 65°F
(18°C)
or goes above 85°F (29°C). The ideal ambient temperature is 72° (22°C).
Affer the dispenser is in a suitable location, it is time to insert the
tap

USING THE YELLOW ADAPTOR
To connect the Yellow Adapter to a standard 5 liter mini
keg, follow these instructions.
NOTE: MAKE SURE ALL COMPONENTS ARE
PROPERLY SANITIZED PRIOR TO EACH USE.
PREPARING THE STANDARD 5 LITER MINI KEG
1. Screw the YELLOW RISING PIPE into the YELLOW
ADAPTER. Make sure there is an o-ring inside the RISING
PIPE. (See
Figure 2
)
2. Remove the plug from the top of the keg tap to ventilate
the keg. This releases the pressure build-up in the top of the
keg. The ventilation openings are designed differently per keg
type. Check the top ventilation opening to make sure the
opening is wide enough for the YELLOW RISING PIPE. If
there are parts in the way, such as a plastic edging, make
sure it is removed. It may be necessary to use a screwdriver
or pliers to do so.
3. Insert the YELLOW RISING PIPE (attached to the
YELLOW ADAPTER) into the top ventilation opening of the
mini keg. (See
Figure 3
)
4. If the YELLOW RISING PIPE does not fit into the tap, you
may be required to remove the plastic seal completely from
the ventilation tap using pliers. If this is required, insert the
provided BLACK RUBBER SEAL (See “
Parts & Accessories”
on page 7) into the keg before inserting the RISING PIPE.
This will create a tight seal between the keg and the RISING
PIPE. Keep a cloth or towel on hand, as the beverage could
spill.
5. Make sure the YELLOW ADAPTER fits completely down on
top of the mini keg and the sides of the ADAPTER snap and
lock into place around the edges of the mini keg. (See
Figure
3
)

Cooling the Beverage Dispenser
It takes approximately 15 hours for the beverage dispenser to chill a standard
5 liter mini keg from normal room temperature of 72°F (22°C) to a desired
drinking temperature of 41°F (5°C).
1. To cool the beverage dispenser, use the temperature regulator located in
back of the unit and next to the power switch.
2. To make the beverage dispenser warmer, turn the temperature adjustor to
the
+ direction. To make the dispenser cooler, turn the temperature adjustor to
the
- direction (See
Figure 18
).
Adjusting
the internal temperature with the temperature adjustor will have a
gradual effect on the temperature of the beverage. It should take at least 2-3
hours
for the beverage dispenser temperature to reach the desired
tempe
rature when a change is being made.
The internal temperature of the dispenser is displayed on the front of the unit.
NOTE: The temperature displayed on the front of the dispenser is measured
by the temperature on the outside of the keg or container. Consequently, the
displ
ayed temperature may sometimes vary from the actual temperature of the
beverage. This depends on the length of time and temperature at which the
keg and container were chilled.

OPERATING THE BEVERAGE DISPENSER
Using The Dispensing Tap
You can begin dispensing your beverage immediately after the 5 liter mini keg or the
container has been connected to the dispenser. However, it is recommended that you
wait until the beverage has reached the desired set temperature.
Beer, in particular, can foam excessively if the temperature is too high.
NOTE: Do not place glasses on top of the dispenser. It is an uneven surface, so
glasses may fall.
1. Take a clean glass and hold it at a slight 45° degree angle directly under the tap
NOTE: To ensure proper cleanliness, make sure the tap is not immersed in the
beverage being dispensed into the glass. Beer residue on the tap can impair foam
formation.
2. Pull the tap handle all the way down and fill the glass. Dispensing with the tap
partially open can cause excessive foam.
3. Gently release the tap handle to stop dispensing.
Shelf Life Of 5 Liter Mini Kegs and Container
Opened 5 liter mini kegs have a shelf life of 24 hours unless otherwise stated by your
beverage manufacturer on the keg. Read all instructions on the keg carefully, or if in
doubt, contact the manufacturer directly. Do not keep an opened 5 liter mini keg in the
dispenser (even when switched ON) longer than 24 hours , for which you are to follow
their noted shelf life instructions. After that length of
time, the beverage will go flat.
Do not store beverages in the beverage container longer than 24 hours.
Always leave the dispenser switched ON when storing a mini keg or the beverage
container inside the appliance. This ensures proper cooling.

CARE AND CLEANING
CAUTION: DO NOT USE A DISHWASHER TO CLEAN THE BEVERAGE
DISPENSER, SPARE PARTS OR ACCESORIES.
NOTE: Handling beverages requires very special attention to cleanliness and
hygiene. Clean the beverage dispenser, spare parts, and accesories thoroughly
after each use.
CLEANING THE OUTSIDE OF THE BEVERAGE DISPENSER
Always unplug the beverage dispenser before cleaning. Do not use a hard brush or
sponge. Use a small amount of soap in water with a soft cloth. To dry, use a dry soft
cloth or towel.
Never immerse the beverage dispenser in water or other liquids. Do not let water or
liquid get into the casing of the unit. Never use very hot water.
Remember to rinse out the drip tray if it should be filled during use, and clean
thouroughly after each use.
CLEANING THE INSIDE OF THE BEVERAGE DISPENSER
Soak up all beverage or liquids that have spilled in the cooling compartment; Clean the
cooling compartment with soapy water and a soft cloth.
Clean and rinse the tap with a soft cloth and water
CLEANING THE SPARE PARTS AND ACCESORIES
Thoroughly clean all TUBES, ADAPTERS, and CONNECTORS with light soap and
warm water. For the ADAPTERS to be properly washed and rinsed, the
CONNECTORS and TUBES need to be attached. This will provide access to
inaccessible areas within the ADAPTERS. Make sure to remove the “O-rings” in the
ADAPTERS and CONNECTORS to clean inaccessible areas. Rinse thoroughly under
warm flowing water to remove any residual soap and beverage residue.
Repeat if necessary.
Air dry all washed parts and accessories for 24 hours.
NOTE: Do not pre-install the accessories. Store the accessories in a separate box or
bag outside of the beverage dispenser.
CARE AND CLEANING
19
DEFROSTING THE BEVERAGE DISPENSER
If frost builds up in and around the beverage dispenser, that means there is too much
humidity near the unit. Move the unit to a less humid location.
NOTE: DO NOT USE A HEATER OR ANY SHARP UTENSILS TO REMOVE FROST
OR CLEAN THE BEVERAGE DISPENSER
Unplug the beverage dispenser and, once the frost melts, carefully wipe down the
outside or inside of the unit. When dry, plug the unit back in.
MAINTAINING THE UNIT
Empty the drip tray when necessary and clean it with a damp cloth
Occasionally wipe the outside of the beverage dispenser with a damp cloth to ensure
cleanliness
IN THE EVENT OF A POWER FAILURE
In the event of a power failure, do not remove the cover of the beverage dispenser too
frequently to ensure the internal temperature remains the same. A slight and gradual
increase in temperature could have an effect on the temperature of the beverage.
If the ambient temperature is very hot, place the beverage dispenser in a cool
environment.
