Installing Your Beverage Center

Unpacking Your Beverage Center

1. Remove all packaging material. This includes the foam base and all adhesive tape holding the beverage center accessories inside and outside.

2. Inspect and remove any remains of packing, tape or printed materials before powering on the beverage center.

Leveling Your Beverage Center

• Your beverage center has leveling legs which are located at the

bottom of your beverage center. After properly placing your beverage center in its final position, you can level your beverage center.

• Leveling legs can be adjusted by turning them clockwise to raise your

beverage center or by turning them counterclockwise to lower your beverage center. The beverage center door will close easier when the leveling legs are extended.

• Also, there is an adjustable support for the lower door hinge. (see

fig.4) After leveling the Beverage Center, adjust the hinge support, up or down as needed until it rests on the surface on which that unit is placed.

Proper Air Circulation

• To assure your beverage center works at the maximum efficiency it

was designed for, you should install it in a location where there is proper air circulation and electrical connections.

• The following are recommended clearances around the beverage

center: Sides……………3/4 "(19mm)

Top....................2" (50mm)

Back..................2" (50mm)

Electrical Requirement

• Make sure there is a suitable power Outlet (115 volts, 15 amps

outlet) with proper grounding to power the beverage center.

• Avoid the use of three plug adapters or cutting off the third grounding

in order to accommodate a two plug outlet. This is a dangerous practice since it provides no effective grounding for the beverage center and may result in shock hazard.

Use of Extension Cords

• Avoid the use of an extension cord because of potential safety

hazards under certain conditions. If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use only a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding plug and a 3-slot outlet that will accept the plug. The marked rating of the extension cord must be equal to or greater than the electrical rating of the appliance.

Install Limitations

• Do not install your beverage center in any location not properly

insulated or heated e.g. garage etc. Your beverage center was not designed to operate in temperature settings below 55˚ Fahrenheit.

• Select a suitable location for the beverage center on a hard even

surface away from direct sunlight or heat source e.g. radiators, baseboard heaters, cooking appliances etc. Any floor unevenness should be corrected with the leveling legs located at the bottom.
