OPERATING YOUR BEER DISPENSER
Setting The Temperature
To start, turn the temperature control knob to the maximum setting (6). Allow
the unit to run for 3 hours at the maximum setting. After 3 hours, adjust the
temperature control to the desired setting. The range of temperature control is
from position "1" the warmest to "6" the coldest Temperature range of the
thermostat goes from 36°F to 45°F (2.2ºC to 7.2ºC)..
Optimum temperature for serving draught beer is between 34°F – 38°F (1.1ºC –
3.3ºC) and that is a key factor to consider in storing and dispensing draught
beer. Setting thermostat knob position between “4” and “5” should be appropriate for optimal beer
serving temperature.
To turn off the Beer Dispenser, rotate the control knob to the “OFF” position.
Note: Keep an accurate thermometer handy and adjust temperature control setting as necessary or
according to your needs.

outlet in the rear wall into a tray located above the compressor, where it evaporates.
