Operating Your Appliance
Temperature Control:
Your appliance may have a mechanical (dial) or digital thermostat. Listed below are instructions for both mechanical and digital thermostats.
Mechanical (dial) Thermostat (on some models):
· The interior temperature is controlled with a thermostat knob located inside the unit, towards the upper right-hand corner. Turn the knob clockwise from the STOP (0) position toward the higher numbers for colder temperatures. Higher settings on the knob (higher numbers) mean lower temperatures (colder) inside the unit.
· On the coldest settings, temperatures in some spots inside · the cabinet may drop below 32°F. Use higher thermostat settings only when required or
recommended. When the ambient temperature is normal, we recommend a medium setting. · Changes in the ambient temperature affect the temperature inside the Unit so choose an appropriate setting of the thermostat knob, depending on ambient conditions. · In the STOP (0) position, the appliance does not operate (the cooling system is switched off), yet the power supply is not interrupted (the light still works). · The temperature inside the unit also depends on how often you open the door. · In all small units without interior fans, temperatures are coldest near the bottom, and occasionally near the rear. Place contents accordingly. It is best not to operate these units mostly empty. If temperatures are erratic, try putting some water bottles inside to create a load for the compressor.
Digital Thermostat (standard on SBC682/3, WBC/BC3, LBC/BC series)

Defrosting Your Appliance:
This appliance operates with an automatic defrost system, so the unit defrosts itself. While the compressor is operating, ice will build up along the cold rear wall (the evaporator plate is behind the wall). During the compressor’s off-cycle, ice will melt, drip down, collect in the trough at the bottom, and drain through a small hole into a tray above the compressor, where the compressor’s heat will evaporate the water. If you notice excessive ice build- up on the rear wall, try adjusting the thermostat to a slightly warmer setting. Be sure that the door gasket is sealing well and that there is no obstruction of the drain hole at the bottom rear of the interior cabinet.

Power Failure:
Most power failures are corrected within a few hours and should not affect the temperature of your appliance if you minimize the number of times the door is opened. If the power is going to be off for a longer period of time, you need to take the proper steps to protect your chilled items.
Vacations:
During long absences, remove all contents. Unplug the appliance, clean it, and leave the door open slightly to avoid possible formation of condensation, mold, or odors.
Moving Your Appliance:
1. Remove the contents. 2. Securely tape down all shelving inside the unit. 3. Turn the leveling legs up to the base to avoid damage. 4. Tape the door shut. 5. Be sure the appliance stays secure in the upright position during transportation.
Energy-Saving Tips:
· The unit should be in the coolest area of the room, away from heat-producing appliances or heating ducts, and out of direct sunlight.
· Try not to open the door too often, especially when the weather is damp and hot. Once you open the door, close it as soon as possible.
· Occasionally check if the appliance is sufficiently ventilated (adequate air circulation behind the appliance). · Set the thermostat from higher to lower settings as soon as possible (depending on how loaded the appliance
is, ambient temperature, etc.). · Before loading items into the unit, be sure they have cooled to ambient temperature.

Draft Beer Troubleshooting

When using this appliance, you may come across some problems that in many cases result from improper handling and can easily be eliminated.

Glasses may not have been cleaned properly.

Do not wash beer glasses together with glasses that contain milk or any other fatty substance. An excessive amount of germicide build-up may also leave a fatty film, which will cause the beer to go flat.
It is preferable to steam and sterilize glasses where health laws permit.
Wash glasses thoroughly with a good detergent to remove all fatty substances (e.g., lipstick).
Do not use soap.
Do not wipe the glasses dry. Permit glasses to air-dry by placing them on a wire rack or corrugated metal sheet.

Rinse the glasses in fresh cold water just before serving beer. It is best to serve beer in a wet glass.

Improper drawing of beer into glass Open the faucet quickly and completely; proper foam should be a tight creamy head. The collar on the average glass should be ¾” to 1″ high. Beer drawn without a head has the appearance of being flat.

Not enough pressure

The beer comes out warm and foamy.

The beer is too warm Wrong CO2 pressure

Dirty or damaged beer line

Increase the pressure if the beer runs too slowly. The correct flow should fill a 10-oz glass in 4 seconds (approx. 8 oz of liquid). Check the pressure source to determine whether there are obstructions in the airline. Replace a sluggish air
source or the CO2 regulator and gauge. The tank pressure
must always be higher than the pressure used on the keg. Always apply pressure to the keg before drawing beer.
Adjust the temperature in the unit to make the beer colder.
If the pressure is too high, the beer will come out foamy. Keep the pressure range between 10-12 PSI.
The beer line needs to either be cleaned or replaced.

Probe washer is missing or damaged

If the probe washer is damaged or missing, the beer will come out foamy every time. Replace it as soon as possible.

Too much time between service

Pour and discard the first cup of beer at the beginning of service to refreshen the beer line.

General Troubleshooting

Problem The appliance fails to operate after connecting it to the power source. The compressor is running continuously.
Noise

Cause Power supply is inactive.
Thermostat is set to STOP (0)
The door is opened frequently, or it was left open too long.
The door is not properly closed or sagging.
The power supply has been interrupted for a long period of time. The appliance may have been overloaded with items above room temperature.
There may be inadequate ventilation of the compressor and condenser.
Cooling in refrigeration appliances is enabled by the refrigerating system with a compressor. Noise can depend on where the appliance is placed, how it is used, and how old it is.
During the operation of the compressor, the noise of liquid is heard and when the compressor is not operating, the refrigerant flow is heard. This is a normal condition and has no influence whatsoever on the lifetime of the appliance.

Correction Check whether the power supply is active. Adjust the thermostat setting on the dial.
Keep door closed when it is not in use.
Adjust the door. Clean or replace gasket. Check the power supply. If outdoor: Check GFCI cord.
Allow items to reach room temperature before adding them to the appliance.
Assure there is adequate air circulation behind the appliance and wipe the dust from the condenser.
The unit should be placed and leveled firmly on a solid base, and it should not touch the wall or cabinets standing next to it.

After starting the appliance, the operation of the compressor and the refrigerant flow may be louder. This does not mean that something is wrong. The noise will gradually reduce.

Sometimes a louder noise is heard, which is unusual for the appliance. This noise is often a consequence of improper placement of the unit.
