* To ensure that the BeerTender works correctly and efficiently, the following is strongly advised.

* Place it on a perfectly level and stable surface;

* Choose a clean, well-lit area with an easily accessible electric socket.

* Keep the appliance at a minimum distance (4 inches) from the stove as shown in the diagram.

* Make sure the BeerTender is not exposed to direct sunlight.

* Do not use the BeerTender outdoors.

* Do not place the BeerTender on very hot surfaces or near open flames, as these may melt or damage the casing.

* Your BeerTender uses a technology that delivers ultimate cooling results when the ambient temperature is between 54°F and 86°F. At colder temperatures, the appliance cooling system could be damaged. At warmer temperatures, the cooling system will not be able to reach the temperature you program.

To avoid overheating, always keep the BeerTenderW arning! appliance out of direct sunlight. To obtain good cooling performance, never install your machine in a room with an ambient temperature above 86°F.

5 - UsingtheBee rTende r® System

* Always hold the appliance by the bottom edge when lifting.

* To obtain draught beer of optimal quality you should keep two basic factors in mind, the temperature of the beer and hygienic conditions. Follow these few simple steps for the ideal use of BeerTender.

1. Before pouring a draught beer, it is very important that the Heineken and Heineken Premium Light DraughtKeg reach the correct temperature.

2. Ensure DraughtKeg is sufficiently chilled before pouring a draught beer. Insufficiently chilled DraughtKegs will produce too much foam. It is ideal to purchase the DraughtKeg pre-chilled or pre-chill over night before intended use. If the DraughtKeg needs additional chilling, there are 2 recommended options:

a. Inside the BeerTender – Depending on the temperature of the DraughtKeg, it will take up to 18 hours to chill to the ideal serving temperature.

b. In a refrigerator – Depending on the temperature of your refrigerator, it will take up to 12 hours to chill to the ideal serving temperature.

We recommend that you always keep an extra Tip:DraughtKeg in your refrigerator to always have a chilled keg available.

Prepar ing theBeeIt is importantrTender that the BeerTender power switchIMP ORTisANT:turned on before inserting the DraughtKeg. This allows the scale to reset and accurately measure the amount of beer left in the keg. If you remove a partially full DraughtKeg from an operating machine or open the lid while power is on, the scale will need to be reset.

Simply open the lid and lift up the keg for approximately

5-10 seconds before setting back into the machine and closing the lid.

* After setting up the BeerTender and before use, it is vital to clean the detachable pour spout – this is the only part of the appliance that will come into contact with the beer. The spout should be rinsed by hand.

After cleaning, screw back into place.

* Before inserting the DraughtKeg into the BeerTender, simply snap the patented disposable draught beer tube (included) onto the DraughtKeg.

* Open the BeerTender cover by pressing in the release panel on the front of the machine.

* Open the tap spout cover by turning counter clockwise.

* Insert DraughtKeg into BeerTender and position the draught beer tube as shown on drawing.

* Close the tap by turning clockwise and snapping into place.

* Carefully close the lid.

* Set the drip tray and grate in place at the front of the appliance. Make sure the drip tray is properly fitted and positioned.

The drip tray must be positioned on a level WsurfaceARNING! and must not jut out from the surface it is resting on.

Contr ol Pa nel

Your appliance features a large display providing you with important and useful information.

1-Beertender one way B90 US.qxd:1-B95 oneway Amsterdam_UK.qxd 29/01/08 9:22 Page 9

	On the left side of the display:
	a. Volume indicator
	The BeerTender DraughtKeg volume is indicated with 4
	levels.
	The 4 levels are visible when the DraughtKeg is full.
	They disappear progressively while emptying the
	DraughtKeg. The last level starts to blink when only two
	glasses of beer (+ / - one) are left in the DraughtKeg.
	On the right side of the display:
	b. Temperature indicator
	The temperature indicator goes from red, for a beer that
	is too warm, to orange when cooling of the beer is
¡F	almost complete, to green when the perfect draught
	beer temperature has been reached.
	War ning: never use your BeerTender with ambient
	temperature above 86°F. Above that level, the ideal
	serving temperature can not be attained.
	* Before pouring a beer, rinse a clean glass in cold
	Pouring a bee rfrom theBee rTend er
	water which chills the glass and wets the inside to
	enable a perfectly smooth draught pour. Use of 8 oz
	glasses is recommended to maintain the ideal serving
	temperature.
	* Be aware that the first glass you pour from every new
	Dr a ughtnd	Dr ink
	DraughtKeg will contain mostly foam. This is typical of
	draught beer. Allow the foam to settle and continue to
	pour.
	* Tilt and pour: Tilt your glass at a 45 degree angle as
	you pour and adjust upright as the glass fills.
	* Ensure you pull the tap handle all the way down. Not
	opening the handle all the way will result in excessive
	foam.
	* For the optimal draught beer drinking experience,
	serve your beer with a foam head of 2 fingers in height
	(approximately 1.5”).
	* The drip tray and grate should be emptied and
	Pro per Ca re	nd Clea ning f yourBeerTend er
	cleaned after each use.

*Before cleaning the appliance, it is essential to turn off the ON/OFF switch and then pull the plug out of the socket.

*Keep in mind that during use the drip tray will have to be emptied and rinsed regularly.

The tray and grate are dishwasher safe or can be washed by hand with a mild detergent. Dry completely.

*Always wipe down the interior of the BeerTender after use. Beer is a natural product that can spoil. Therefore, you should always keep the appliance clean to maintain the quality of the beer dispensed and avoid unpleasant odors.

*Rinse the pour spout between uses for optimal results. Handwash with warm soapy water. Do not wash in dishwasher.

*To remove, unscrew turning counterclockwise from main unit. To re-attach, simply screw back in place turning clockwise.

*You should never attempt to access internal parts of the appliance.
