BEFORE PUTTING INTO USE

These instructions are important, and we request you read them before using this

beer dispenser. They describe the appliance and the correct and safe way to use it.

The instructions were prepared for various models so you may find descriptions of

some accessories and functions that do not apply to yours. All models of the SBC-

490 can be converted into a beverage refrigerator. These units are designed for beer

and beverages only, and are not recommended for perishable foods such as meats or

dairy products.

Before connecting the appliance to the power supply, leave it standing for at least 8

hours. This allows the lubricants to drain back into the compressor and reduces the risk

of malfunctions in the cooling system caused by shipping.

Clean the appliance thoroughly; especially the interior (See Maintenance and Cleaning).

Proper grounding must be ensured to reduce the risk of shock and fire. Do not cut

or remove the grounding plug! Connect to 120V, 60Hz, and a minimum 15 amp

grounded AC outlet. Do not use an extension cord. Use a three-prong plug with a

three-prong grounded wall outlet. If you do not have one, have a certified electrician

install the proper outlet.

WE CARE ABOUT THE ENVIRONMENT

Our appliances are distributed in packaging made of environmental friendly materials

which can safely be recycled, disposed of or destroyed with minimal environmental

effects. Our instruction manuals are printed on recycled paper or chlorine free bleached

paper.

TIPS FOR ENERGY SAVINGS

Try not to open the door too often, especially when the weather is hot and humid. Once

you open the door try to close it as soon as possible.

If possible, disconnect the power before changing a keg of beer.

While this unit is designed for under-counter use, and the compressor cooling is fan

assisted, a small air gap between the rear of the unit and the wall or counter surface

behind will enhance cooling and reduce energy waste.

Set the thermostat from a higher to lower setting whenever possible, depending on how

full the appliance is or what the ambient temperature is.

Keep the unit out of direct sunlight.

Periodically check that the refrigerator seals well and none of the contents prevent the

door from closing.

WARNING!

To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury when using your appliance,

follow these basic precautions:

*Read all instructions before using the appliance.

*The appliance must be correctly connected to the power supply.

*Immediately replace worn power cords, loose plugs and power outlets.

*Do not operate your appliance in the presence of explosive fumes.

*Disconnect the appliance from the power supply before repairing or cleaning it (only

qualified technician should repair it).

*Do not let children play with this or any other appliance to reduce likelihood of

injury.

*Never stand on top or inside of this appliance, or swing on the door.

*Do not operate valve control unless cylinder is completely installed and connected.

Important Safety

Precautions of CO2

(Carbon Dioxide) Gas

Always connect the CO2cylinder to a regulator! Failure to do so may cause an

explosion resulting in possible death or injury when the cylinder valve is opened.

Never connect the CO2cylinder directly to the product container.

Always keep CO2cylinders away from heat. Store extra cylinders in a cool place

(preferably 70ºF). Securely fasten cylinders with a chain in an upright position

when storing.

Never drop or throw a CO2cylinder

Always check the D.O.T (Department of Transport) test date on the cylinder

neck before installation. If it has been over 5 years, do not use. Return the

cylinder to your gas supplier

Never connect a product container unless there are at least two safety devices in

the pressure system; one on the CO2regulator and the other on the product

container or in the pressure gas line.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE USE

DISPOSING OF a

WORN OUT Appliance

-When your appliance finally wears out, dispose of it.

-Before you dispose of your old refrigerator or freezer: Take the door or the

drawers off so that children may not easily climb inside.

-The refrigerating system of the appliance is filled with refrigerant and insulating

substances which should be separately recycled. Either have a licensed

appliance repair company or dealer remove the appliance or call your local

recycling office for the appropriate disposal.

-For the sake of environmental protection be careful not to damage the rear wall

of the appliance (the condenser unit or the tubes when moving the refrigerator) or

any part of the refrigerating system inside the appliance.

-This refrigerator is 100% CFC-Free, but the coolant is under pressure and

puncturing the sealed system could be dangerous. The coolant used in the

sealed system is non-toxic.

-Many older refrigerators may contain refrigerants that are harmful to the

environment, and should be recycled by a lawfully licensed company.

PLACING AND INSTALLATION

CHOOSING THE RIGHT PLACE

To ensure that your beer dispenser works at the maximum efficiency it was designed for,

install it in a location where there is proper air circulation and electrical connections.

Choose a location where the beer dispenser will be away from heat and will not be

exposed to direct sunlight.

Models SBC-490-BIFR, SBC-490-BIFR-7(for commercial use), SBC-490BISSTB and

SBC-490BISSTB-7(for commercial use) are designed for indoor use only and should not

be used outdoors. Outdoor model SBC-490-OS and SBC-490-OS-TWIN are

U.L.approved for outdoor use.

CONNECTION TO POWER SUPPLY

Connect this appliance to a 3 prong power supply socket outlet (which has a ground

terminal). If you only have a two prong outlet have it replaced by a qualified

technician with an outlet that meets the local codes.

***DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD***

Required nominal voltage and frequency are indicated on the rating plate. The

connection to the power supply and grounding has to be made according to current

standards and regulations.

The appliance resists temporary voltage tolerance from -15 to 10%. On model SBC-

490-OS only, a GFCI (ground fault circuit interrupter) built into every line cord.In

the event the cooler is not operating, first check to see that the GFCI has not tripped, and

press the reset button.

Operation control

How To Adjust The Thermostat

The refrigerator is controlled with a thermostat knob located inside the unit, towards the

right-hand corner. Turn the knob clockwise from the STOP (0) position toward

higher numbers for colder temperatures. Place drip tray under beer faucet.

The recommended pressure for the CO2system is 8 -10 lbs.

TEMPERATURE SELECTION

The settings of the temperature control are from 0 (off) to 7 (max). Initially adjust the

temperature control setting to 4 (norm), then adjust the thermostat to colder or warmer (as

needed).

A higher setting on the knob (towards 7) means colder temperatures in all

compartments of the appliance. On the highest setting, parts of the refrigerator may

become extremelycold, especially in cooler or dry weather. Use the higher thermostat

setting only when required or recommended.

The coolness of the refrigerator depends on how often you open and close the door or

rawer.

To turn the refrigerator off you must turn the thermostat to 0 (off).

INSTALLATIOn

KEG TAPPER AND BEER KEG

The Sankey type keg tapper supplied with the beer disperser is the most widely used in

the United States. However, other types of keg tappers can be used. Before installing a

keg taper check with your beer distributor to make sure that the Sankey type keg tapper

can be used.

If you need a keg taper other than a Sankey type, it is recommended that you purchase the

tapper you need from your beer distributor, please keep the Sankey type keg tapper for

future use. The Sankey system is becoming more popular to use.
