- Put the beer machine in smooth, flat and strong place indoors.

- Avoid the direct sunlight, and keep away from heat sources such as stoves, heaters, and radiators.

- The hot air from the side wall of beer machine must be able to exclude unrestrictedly. Otherwise, the compressor must improve power to increase the power consumption. Therefore, the distance between the beer machine, wall and the surrounding furniture cannot be less than 10cm.

Starting

• For the first starting, please leave the beer machine alone about 2–3 hours to plug in.
• Clean the chamber of the beer machine before the first operation (see the maintenance of beer machine).
• Please let the beer machine work 2-3 hours before putting the barrel beer into the beer machine.

Introduction to the beer machine's functions

▶ Operation panel

Cooler Temperature drop Temperature rise Warmer 82°C Display module °F/°C Fahrenheit/Celsius switching Rapid cooling Deep Chill

▶ Setting temperature

Adjust the button of temperature drop or rise on the control panel so that the display module will display the appropriate temperature.

The display module displays the set temperature, and the temperature controlled range varies from 0 to 10 °C (32-50 °F).

The display module shows 5 °C at the initial power. When pressing the button of temperature rise or drop, the temperature will increase or decrease by 1 °C (°F).

The optimal temperature of the storage and distribution of draft beer is 34 \~ 38 °F (1.1 to 3.3 °C).

▶ Switch between Fahrenheit and Celsius temperature

The press of the "Fahrenheit / Celsius switch" key can realize the Fahrenheit and Celsius temperature switch. The corresponding Fahrenheit or Celsius temperature value is displayed in the display module.

When the "Celsius temperature" is selected, the lamp of "F" When the "Fahrenheit temperature" is selected, the lamp of "℃" on the display module will be lightened and the displayed value is Fahrenheit.

▶ Quick cooling function

Press the "rapid cooling" key to enter the "quick cool" state. Lighten the "rapid cooling" icon on the display module, and the temperature display "00 °". Repress the "rapid cooling" key to exit the state of "rapid cooling" and the icon goes off. The temperature shows entering into the setting state of pre-rapid cooling.

After entering into “rapid cooling” state, the machine works 24H continuously, and exits after 24H. At the same time, rapid cooling icon is off. The temperature displays entering into the setting state of pre-rapid cooling.

Rapid refrigeration function will be used only for the first barrel of beer in the box, desiring to use as soon as possible when drinking. The normal use should not use this function to avoid ice beer.

▶ Display function

In normal work, the display module will be lit instead of being closed.

▶ Fault prompt

When the following table prompts appear in the display module, it implies the failure of beer machine. Although part of the fault condition occurs, the beer machine can still work. You should contact the maintenance as soon as possible to achieve the optimization run of beer machine.

Prompt	E1 E4		E7
Fault	Temperature sensor failure in the refrigerated zone	Defrosting sensor failure in refrigerator compartment	Ambient temperature sensor fault

When two or more sensors fail simultaneously, all fault codes will display on the display module alternately. If the ambient temperature sensor and refrigeration defrosting sensor fall, any key can be pressed. The temperature is adjustable. The fault display will be restored after 15 seconds later.

▶ Automatic defrosting

The beer machine doesn't need manual defrost. The frosting on the inner wall will automatically melt and flow through the drainage holes to be automatically evaporated.

Maintenance of the beer machine

▶ Cleaning

• The dust of the back of beer machine and the ground needs cleaning up in time in order to improve the cooling effect and help save energy at the same time.
• The interior of beer machine should be cleaned regularly. When cleaning, use a soft towel or sponge which is dipped in water or non-corrosive neutral detergent. At end, wipe it with clean water and dry it with cloth. Open the door to dry naturally before the power is turned on.

▶ Out of service

- If the machine is out of service more than three weeks, you should unplug the power and clean it thoroughly. The beer machine should keep drying.

▶ Transportation

● Fix the loose items in the beer machine with tape firmly; use the tape to fix the door of the machine to avoid opening the door in transportation.
- In transportation, loosen the trundles of the two foot brake, and the go on.

▶ Warm prompt

• Beer machine is mainly used for storage of bottled beer and other items. Please increase the set temperature (greater than or equal to 5 °C) to avoid the inside temperature too low.
• If there is sound of air or hum when the machine is in use, the noise is caused by the refrigerant flowing in the cooling pipe and running in the compressor, which is normal phenomenon.:
• The beer machine has no heating function. When the set temperature is higher than the ambient temperature, the machine will not run.

DRAUGHT BEER TROUBLE GUIDE

▶ CLOUDY BEER
When beer in glass appears hazy, and not clear.
FLAT BEER

Foamy head disappears quickly: beer lacks usual zestful brewery fresh flavor.

Causes Corrections

1)Over chilling beverage cooler and/orbeverage lines.	1)Excessive low temperatures may cause hazy, cloudybeer, particularly when beer lies in cold coil for longperiods of time. Make certain that lines are thoroughlycleaned, and then raise temperature slightly.
2)Cracking, or when partially opening beerfaucet.	2)Open faucet quickly and completely.Replace wom washers and parts in faucet whennecessary to permit full opening of faucet.
3)Contaminated air source. If possiblechange to CO2 gas as a pressure source.Defective Thomas or tongue vents.	3)See flat beer, correction #7Always draw fresh air from an outside source tocompressor. Attach hair felt filter to the outside intake,in addition to filter in line.Bacteria growth may result from beer backing up throughdefective vents in air line, air pressure will then carry thisinto beer barrel.Check and replace defective vents frequently, and thoroughly clean air line.
4)General conditions causing cloudy beer.	4)See wild beer corrections #2, #5, #6, and #7, and flat beercorrections #5, #7, and #8.
5)Unrefrigerated food placed on barrel oncold beer.	5)When unrefrigerated products, such as meats vegetables,fish, or fruits, are placed on barrel of cold beer, the beerbecomes warm long before those products chill down tothe cold temperature. This change in temperature will causeCloudy Beer.

1)Greasy glass

1)Do not wash beer glasses together with glasses that have contained milk or any other fatty substance. Lipstick is a fatty substance.. Make sure it is removed from glass.Excess amount of germicides build up and leave a fatty film on glass, which may cause flat beer.It is preferable to steam and sterilize glasses where health laws permit.Wash glasses thoroughly with a good detergent.Do not use soap.Do not dry-wipe glasses. Permit glasses to air-dry by placing them on wire or corrugated metal.Rinse in fresh cold water just before serving beer. It is best to serve beer in a wet glass.

2)Improper drawing of beer into glass.

2)Open faucet quickly and completely.Check and find the correct distance to hold glass from faucet when drawing. Proper foam should be a tight creamy head, and the collar on the average glass should be “3/4” to “1” high.Beer drawn without head has appearance of being flat.

3)Not enough pressure.	3)Increase pressure if beer runs too slowly.Correct flow is to fill
4)Defective Thomas and Tongue Vents.Pressure is shut off.	4)Check all washers frequently, particularly the air vents. A clogged vent will obstruct the flow of air or CO2Check source of pressure. Check power source when air compressor is used. Air compressor should never be connected to light switch. Make certain to have a separate electric plug outlet for the compressor.Check CO Tank, if empty, replace (See inside cover for proper procedure).When barrel is tapped, and proper pressure applied, pressure must always remain on until barrel is empty.If beer is started without first applying pressure beer will be wild at the start, and flat towards the end.
5)Pre-color, or beer system, too cold.	5)With an accurate thermometer, check temperature in pre-cooler or box.Temperature at the faucet should always be colder by at least two degrees than at the precooler or box.
6)Sluggish pressure regulators.	6)A regular seat, or the regulator diaphragm, may require replacing.Also, check the same as you would for Corrections 3 & 4.
7)Contaminated air source.Oil or grease fumes.	7)Filter all air after it leaves compressor.Oil fume from compressor, of kitchen grease fumes, pumped into beer, will cause Flat Beer.If possible CO gas should be used as a pressure source.
8)Moisture in Air system.	8)With the use of an air compressor, it is imperative to have a moisture trap installed in the Pre-cooler, and drained daily. This is in addition to an activated charcoal filter, necessary to purfy the air just before it enters the barrel.With tank type compressors, drain the tank weekly.Moisture traps should be drained daily.
9)Rapid movement of air.	9)An air fan, or exhaust blower drawing air, or blowing air, across the bar where beer is drawn, may cause the dead of foam to fall quickly. Fans or blowers should be located so that air movement is not directly across from where beer is drawn.

LOOSE FOAM

Causes Corrections

Large soap-like bubbles (sometimes called fish eyes). Foam settles quickly.

This is generally a Flat Beer condition: the Causes and corrections for Flat Beer should be followed.

OFF-TASTE BEER

Often bitter and bitey, sometimes completely odor, carrying an unpleasant taste.

Beer lines should be flushed after each barrel is empty. Maintain fresh, Clean, sanitary conditions at bar. Smoke, kitchen odors, fly sprays, and disinfectants will harm the taste and flavor of beer, making it unpalatable. These conditions, as described, may come from an air source, or from actual contact with the glass at bar.

Causes Corrections

1)Improper, or no cleaning of coils, hose, leads, and direct draw system.	1)Coils should be thoroughly cleaned at least once a week.Brush and clean faucet. (see Wild Beer, Correction #2)Taps, rods, and tap-Seal fitting should all be scoured, using a detergent, then rinsed clean.Direct draw Systems must be cleaned the same as coil systems; 4 feet of direct draw line accumulates as much per foot as any other system.
2)Contaminated Air Line. Defective Thomas or Tongue Bents.	2)Air hoses, air lines and vents, should be examined, and if contaminated, replaced.Dirty air lines should be washed with a good cleaning compound, normally used for cleaning coils, and then rinsed clean.
3)Rubber hose will absorb and retain odors.	3)Rubber hose will absorb and retain odors. An approved Vinyl tubing is best for air since it does not absorb moisture, and is not affected by oily substances.A fresh, outdoor, air line is imperative when air is the source of pressure.
4)Unfiltered air, Air is moisture ridden or oily.	4)Air must always be filtered.See Flat Beer, Correction #8 for moisture ridden air.

▶ SOUR BEER

May taste and smell extremely yeasty, or moldy.

Causes Corrections

1) Contaminated Air Line.	1) See Cloudy Beer, Correction #3 See Off-Taste Beer. Correction #2 See Flat Beer. Correction #7
2) Improper transportation of barrels of beer, Beer delivered on open truck, during high summer temperatures, may be the cause for starting secondary fermentation.	2) If at all possible, deliver beer barrels in closed body, refrigerated truck. If open staked body truck is used, cover barrels with a tarpaulin for protection against summer heat, and circulating warm air. Truck should never be loaded the night before morning delivery, unless beer is refrigerated in truck.
3) No refrigeration, and improper rotation.	3) The rule is first barrel in, first tapped. Refrigeration must be left on winter or summer. Sour beer is generated as a result of secondary fermentation, above 45 degrees. Retail outlets that do not have refrigeration should ice up barrels, or at least cover barrels with tarpaulin or burlap bags. Best temperature for barrels is 38° to 40°.

WILD BEER

Beer, when drawn, is all foam, or too much foam, and not enough liquid beer.

Causes Corrections

1)Improper drawing beer into glass.	1)Open faucet quickly and completely.Check and find the correct distance to hold glass from faucet when drawing. Proper foam should be a tight,creamy head, and the collar on the average glass should be "3/4" to "1" high.
2)Yeast growth, or other obstructions in faucet.Wom faucet parts and worn faucet washers.	2)Clean faucet spout with a good brush daily. Scour all internal faucet parts at least once a week.Replace worn washers as required. If faucet does not open wide, worn parts or entire faucet must be replaced.
3)Kinks, dents, or twists in coils, or direct draw lines: obstructions in line, near, or behind faucet.	3)Check for, and replace kinked, dented, or twisted line from barrel to faucet.Examine for frayed coupling washer behind faucet that may cause obstruction.
4)Sag, or trap in line.	4)Keep all metal beer lines straight from barrel to faucet; never permit lines to sag, as this creates traps that may cause wild beer.
5)Beer too warm at faucet;Beer too warm in Coil System.Beer too warm in Air Shaft System.	5)Temperature at faucet must always be at least 2 degrees colder than at barrel.In sweet-water refrigerated, or ice-water system, faucet shank must always be submerged.In Cold Air System, the coldest air from the blower must first be directed to the faucet, and then circulated back to pre-cooler.
6)Hot spots in line.	6)Insulate all beer lines; a long beer run must be constantly refrigerated. Insulation helps. But insulation is not refrigeration.Keep all beer lines away from hot water pipes, hot air ducts, and steam lines. A cold steam pipe in the summer is a hot steam pipe in the winter.
7)Pre-Cooler, or Direct Draw Dispenser, too warm.	7)It is always summer indoors and in the basement, therefore, maintain pre-cooler, and direct draw dispenser temperature at 40 all year round. If direct draw temperature cannot be lowered, increase applied pressure; however, balance the system by changing to smaller diameter length of vinyl tubing or install a foam control faucet.Never shut off refrigeration day or night.
8)No cold storage space for delivered beer;beer becomes warm in barrel.	8)Coil systems, and direct draw systems, must be properly balanced in order to apply pressure required for warmest temperature to which barrels of beer will be exposed.A control beer faucet can be used in place of a restricted coil to balance system.
9)Too much air pressure.	9)Check source of pressure. Adjust pressure to suit properly balanced system. For correct beer flow, fill a 10 oz. Glass in 4 seconds at proper temperature.Check and replace a creeping regulator and gauge.
10)Excess CO.	10)Adjust pressure when using CO as low as possible, however, remembering that the applied pressure must be slightly higher than the internal pressure of the beer (no more than 18 lbs. should be applied.)The colder the beer and the higher the applied CO pressure, the more rapid the absorption of CO by: the beer. This over-carbonates the beer, causing Wild Beer.
11)Not enough pressure.No pressure.	11)Check for defective air vents. (see Flat Beer.Corrections #3 and 4.)Always turn pressure on before drawing beer.
12)Old Beer.	12)Rotate stock. The oldest beer should be tapped first: if beer has been allowed to stand in warm temperature beyond 45° for any excessive length of time, it may begin secondary fermentation.Store beer at 40° all year round.

▶ TAIL END BEER

Beer draws well at the beginning of the barrel. Towards the end of the barrel the beer is flat. This is more likely to occur when beer turnover is slow.

Causes Corrections

Where air is used as a pressure source, air replaced the CO in beer causing flat beer. Where beer is being drawn rapidly this problem is not so evident.

Wherever possible CO Gas should be used as pressure source.In high pressure systems where CO gas cannot be sued a banner air-gas Blender should be installed.This introduces a small amount of CO back into the beer, thus

Answers to FAQ

As for the following simple questions, you can try to solve them by yourself. If there is no change, please call the after-sales service department.

Fault	Possible reasons
The beer machine doesn't work.	Whether the power supply and plug is well placed. Whether the voltage is too low. Whether the new circuit trips, or the fuse melts.
Frequently switch machine.	The indoor temperature is higher than usual. Frequently open the door. The door is not closed completely. Temperature control is not set correctly.
Frequently switch machine. The door cannot be closed properly.	Beer barrel is not in place. The beer machine is not placed flally. The door is installed wrongly. Shelf, metal plate or beer kegs are misplaced
Noise	Whether the direction of the wheel is determined, or the cabinet is not paced smoothly. The noise is the sound of refrigerant flow, which is normal. In the end of each loop, you will hear the gurga of refrigerant flow from the beer machine. The contraction and expansion of the inner wall may cause pops and crackles.

Notes

When taking beer, open the main switch of CO2 gas cylinder, and rotate the regulator knob on CO2 regulator table's valve so that it reaches a certain pressure value (observing regulator table). Furthermore, open the safety switch of CO2 regulator table valve and pull back the mixed valve control handle, then lifting up. Loosen your grip to fix it: Close the door, and pull the beer tower components forward to get beer.
When replacing the beer, please turn off the safety switch of CO₂ regulator valve and remove the mixed ball valve to remove the beer barrel.
When replacing CO2 gas cylinder, remember to turn off the main switch of the CO2 gas cylinder and safety switch of the CO2 regulator valve. Afterwards, use a wrench to loosen the hexagonal nut port connecting the CO2 regulator valve with CO2 tank closely. Then remove the fixed bolt of CO tank to remove CO tank finally by a wrench.
In the process of installation, ensure that all parts are connected tightly and no air leaks.
When the hose connects the connection port, you can dip it by warm water or lubricated oil once confronted with any troubles.
If the high-pressure compressed gas in the CO tank is not handled properly, it could be dangerous: 1. Please the testing date of D.O.T in the cylinder neck before installation. If it is more than 5 years, don't use the product any more, and bring it back to the gas supplier. 2. CO₂gas cylinder should be kept away from heat sources. The unused cylinders should be placed upright in ventilated cool place (preferably 70 degrees Fahrenheit).
