To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons read these SAFETY PRACTICES AND PRECAUTIONS before operating this appliance. Use this appliance only for its intended purpose as described in this User Guide. WARNING When using this appliance always exercise basic safety precautions including the following: DANGER! ■ This appliance is not intended for use by young children or infirm persons without supervision. Young children should be supervised to ensure they do not play with the appliance. ■ Risk of child entrapment. Before you throw away your old refrigerator/beer dispenser:
1. Take off the doors.
2. Leave the shelves in place so that children may not easily climb inside.
ELECTRICAL ■ This appliance must be properly installed in accordance with the installation instruction before it is used. ■ Never unplug your refrigerator by pulling on the power cord. Always grip the plug firmly and pull straight out from the outlet. ■ Repair or replace immediately all electric service cords that have become frayed or otherwise damaged. Do not use a cord that shows cracks or abrasion along its length or at either the plug or appliance end. If the power supply cord is damaged, it must only be replaced by your Fisher & Paykel Appliances Authorized Service Center because special purpose tools are required. ■ Unplug your refrigerator before cleaning, or replacing the light bulb.
STORING FOOD AND DRINKS
■ Never store volatile or flammable materials in your refrigerator as they may explode. ■ Never freeze liquids in glass containers. Liquid expands during freezing which may cause the container to explode. ■ Do not consume food if it is too cold. Food removed from the freezer compartment may be cold enough to cause damage when brought into contact with bare skin, e.g. frozen ice cubes.
POWER FAILURE – FOOD SAFETY
■ Do not refreeze foods that have thawed completely. Follow the recommendations below if you discover food that has thawed:
1. Ice crystals still visible – f
ood may be refrozen but should be stored for a shorter period than recommended.
2. Thawed but refrigerator cold – r
efreezing generally not recommended. Fruits and some cooked food can be refrozen but use as soon as possible. Meat, fish, poultry – use immediately or cook, then refreeze. Vegetables – discard as they usually go limp and soggy.
3. Thawed but warmer than 4
F – red meat can be cooked immediately and refrozen but use as soon as possible. Discard all other frozen foods. ■ Do not refreeze frozen foods that have thawed completely. The food may be dangerous to eat. CLEANING ■ Many commercially available cleaning products contain solvents which may attack plastic components of your refrigerator/beer dispenser and cause them to crack. Please refer to the Care and Maintenance section of this booklet for further advice (see pages 15-16). DISPOSAL ■ Extreme care must be taken when disposing of your old appliance to avoid hazards. The refrigerant gas must be safely removed. ■ Your Fisher & Paykel Appliances Authorized Service Center will be able to give advice on environmentally friendly methods of disposing of your old refrigerator/beer dispenser.
POWER ■ The appliance must be installed so the power plug is accessible. ■ To ensure that the appliance is not accidentally switched off, connect your refrigerator/beer dispenser to its
wn power point. Do not plug in any other appliance at this power point or use extension cords, or double adapters, as the combined weight of both power cords can pull the double adapter from a wall outlet socket. ■ For power requirements, refer to the information on the serial plate located at the front bottom right-hand side of the refrigerator when the door is open. ■ It is essential that the appliance be properly grounded (earthed) with a three prong receptacle. Never cut or
eak off the grounding prong to fit a two-prong outlet. LOCATION ■ Your refrigerator/beer dispenser should not be located in direct sunlight. STABILITY ■ It is important that all four corners of the refrigerator/beer dispenser base are supported firmly on a solid level surface to eliminate any cabinet movement. ■ Installing the appliance on a soft or uneven or unlevel floor may result in twisting of the cabinet and poor sealing of the doors. If the doors do not seal properly, warm air will enter the food storage areas causing the temperature to increase, resulting in food spoilage and food loss. ■ Before moving your refrigerator/beer dispenser into its position, ensure that the adjustable front feet are fully retracted. ■ Position your refrigerator/beer dispenser. Turn to lower the front leveling leg. Raise the front of the appliance until it is stable and doors move towards the closed position, on their own, when open. ■ The front leveling leg on the hinge side should take the majority of the weight of the cabinet and the cabinet should be stable , i.e. cabinet should not rock or wobble. BEFORE PLACING FOOD IN THE FRESH FOOD COMPARTMENTS ■ Remove all packaging. Ensure that all transit tape is removed from the refrigerator. ■ Clean the inside of the appliance with warm water and a little liquid detergent to remove manufacturing and transportation dust. ■ Allow the refrigerator/beer dispenser to run empty for 2 - 3 hours to allow each compartment to cool to the appropriate temperature. ■ The appliance may have an odor on its initial operation, but this will go away when the refrigerator/beer dispenser have cooled sufficiently.

Doing so may cause an electrical shock, which may result in severe injury or death. GROUNDING METHOD This product is factory equipped with a power supply cord that has a three-pronged grounded plug. It must beplugged into a mating grounding type receptacle in accordance with the National Electrical Code and applicablelocal codes and ordinances. If the circuit does not have a grounding type receptacle, it is the responsibility andobligation of the customer to exchange the existing receptacle in accordance with the National Electrical Codeand applicable local codes and ordinances. The third ground prong should not, under any circumstances, be cutor removed. All UL listed refrigerated products are equipped with this type of plug. A ground fault circuit interrupter (GFI) electrical receptacle is to be used to supply electrical power to the refrig- erator for outdoor applications. Contact an electrician if you need to install one to supply electrical power to your outdoor refrigerator. POWER REQUIREMENTS: Note: The plug shown is for 120V units. Grounding TypeWall ReceptaclePower Supply Cord with 3-ProngGrounding Plug Fig. 02Fig. 036 SELECT LOCATION: The proper location will ensure peak performance of your appliance. Choose a location where the unit will be out of direct sunlight, away from heat sources and moisture. Units with fan cooled condensers can be built in. Unit should be operated in a properly ventilated area with ambient temperatures above 40 degrees and below 100 degrees Fahrenheit. Installation should be such that the cabinet can be moved for servicing if necessary. CABINET CLEARANCE: Ventilation is required from the bottom front section of the unit. Keep this area open and clear of any obstructions. The adjacent cabinets and counter top can be built around the unit as long as no top trim or counter top is installed lower than the top of the hinge. SIDE TRIM INSTALLATION: Attach side trim to the inner side of the cabinet so that the trim faces outward (away from the appliance’s door) and fasten with appropriate screws suitable for the type of cabinet material.

Steps need to be taken to insure proper temperatures are maintained in the dispenser. IMPORTANT: All holes must be sealed to prevent air leak. Placement of the tower can be done by cutting a hole in the counter top directly above the existing hole of the Beer Dispenser unit (refer to tower template for dimensions Fig. 05). 1. Drill a 1-5/8” hole drilled thru the counter directly above the hole in the dispenser cabinet. Use the dimensionsshown to align both holes. When properly placed, you will see thru both holes.2. Drill four 1/8” pilot holes at 2-5/8” apart using the large hole as a center point (see Fig. 05).3. Using some insulating foam rubber (not included), slide it over the beer line far enough to bring the hose upthru the top of the cabinet and counter.4. Connect the beer line assembly to the tower as per “Assemble and Connect Parts” on page 10.5. Slide the insulating foam rubber into the hole in top of the dispenser, making an air tight seal.6. Mount the tower to the top of the cabinet and fasten securely.7. Make connections to the keg and CO cylinder as per “Assemble and Connect Parts” on page 10. NOTE: When there is a large build up of frost or ice on the evaporator plate, the drip pan may not be large enough to retain all of the melted ice. The evaporator plate should never have more than 1/8” of frost at any time. INSTALLATION HOW TO INSTALL YOUR OUTDOOR REFRIGERATOR/BEER DISPENSER 1-5/8”2-5/8”2-5/8”11-3/4” 12” Fig. 058 Q. WHAT SIZE KEG WILL FIT INTO MY REFRIGERATOR? Approximate measurements required to tap most kegs: Quarter Barrel Half Barrel Height 17-21 inches 25-29 inches Diameter 16-20 inches 18-22 inches Weight 80-85 pounds 160-180 pounds Check with your local beer wholesaler or retailer to verify actual keg sizes, including tap heights. Q. CAN MY REFRIGERATOR MAINTAIN TEMPERATURES BETWEEN 34º-38º F? Draft beer is not pasteurized, so it must be kept cold, preferably 38º. Temperature above 38º may cause the beer to become wild, turn sour and cloudy. Draft beer should be consumed within 30-45 days. It is not pasteurized, and will lose its original brewery fresh taste and aroma the older it gets. Q. HOW MUCH BEER WILL I CONSUME IN A 30 DAY PERIOD? There are two keg sizes: the quarter barrel containing 7-3/4 gallons or approximately 3-1/2 cases of 12 ounce bottles or cans; the half barrel containing 15-1/2 gallons or approximately 7 cases.

USING THE REFRIGERATOR/BEER DISPENSER
TEMPERATURE CONTROLInitially set the cold control knob midway between the numbers.After at least 2 hours, adjust to the temperature that suits you. Thehigher the number you select, the cooler the temperature (Fig. 17).The temperature control knob is located at the bottom front of thecabinet, just behind the square opening near the middle of theventing grill.DEFROSTING INSTRUCTIONS (IF NEEDED)Never use a scraper or any tool that might scratch or pierce thecooling plate. Follow these steps whenever 1/4 inch or more offrost accumulates:1. Disconnect the power cord and set the cold control knob to “OFF”position.2. Remove contents.3. Place pans of hot water on the shelf under cooling plate if you wish to speed up defrosting.Note:Place a clean cloth under the hot pan of water to protect the glass shelf from breaking. 4. Wipe out the interior and replace contents.5. Connect power cord to outlet.6. Set temperature control to desired level.HELP PREVENT TRAGEDIES...Each year children die because they climb inside a discarded refrigeration product, get trapped inside andsuffocate. Take precautions to prevent such tragedies by removing the door, taping or chaining it shut beforediscarding.ALL REFRIGERATOR MODELSAll refrigerator models automatically defrost their cooling plate during each compressor off cycle. Nomanual defrosting is required.
1. Start with a clean beer
glass that has been wetted in cold water. Place the glass at a 45º angle, one inch below the faucet. Do not let the glass touch the faucet. Open the faucet all the way.
2. After the glass has
reached half full, gradually bring the glass to an upright position.
3. Let the remaining
beer run straight down the middle. This insures proper release of CO
producing a 3/4” to 1” foam head.
completely and quickly.
HOW TO CLEAN AND MAINTAIN YOUR UNIT Condenser The condenser coil under the cabinet for forced air unit does require frequent cleaning. Satisfactory cooling depends on adequate ventilation over the condenser coil. Be sure that nothing obstructs the air flow openings in the lower front of the cabinet. At least once or twice a year brush or vacuum lint and dirt from the condenser coil for efficient performance by unscrewing the grill on the bottom front of the cabinet. Cabinet The stainless steel cabinet can be washed with mild soap and water and thoroughly rinsed with clear water. Never use abrasive scouring powders. Interior It is important to keep the interior of the refrigerator/beer dispenser clean to help prevent food from becoming contaminated during storage. The amount and types of food stored determines how often cleaning should be carried out (ideally once every 1 or 2 weeks) in the refrigerator. Remove the shelves from cabinet and door. Wash shelves and storage bins in warm water and detergent; rinse in clean water and dry before replacing. Wash interior compartment with mild soap and water. Wipe over the interior surfaces with warm water and detergent or baking soda dissolved in warm water (add 1 teaspoon of baking soda to each 1 pint [500 ml] of water). Do not use an abrasive powder, solvent, polish cleaner, abrasive cloths, highly perfumed, strong smelling cleaners or undiluted detergent on any part of the refrigerator or beer dispenser. Rinse with clean water. To help remove “old stale refrigerator” smells, add a few drops of vanilla essence or vinegar to the water before cleaning. Exterior – Stainless Exterior Door It is important when cleaning the exterior door surface of your refrigerator or beer dispenser, to only use liquid dishwashing detergent, dissolved in warm water. Dry the door with a clean, lint-free cloth. The use of any abrasive or stainless steel cleaners and solvents will damage the door surface. Other Exterior Surfaces and Door Gasket Clean all other exterior surfaces with warm water and detergent. If necessary, clean the magnetic door gasket with an old toothbrush, warm water and detergent. Interior – Glass Shelves Clean with warm water and detergent or a glass cleaner. If cleaning the shelves without removing from the cabinet, use only warm water and detergent as a glass cleaner can damage the plastic components of your refrigerator/beer dispenser. Important Note: Many commercially available cleaning products contain solvents that may attack the plastic components of your refrigerator and cause them to crack. It is important to use only warm water and a small amount of liquid dishwashing detergent on any plastic components inside and outside your refrigerator. Avoid using anti-bacterial cleaning products on either the interior or exterior of the cabinet as they may cause rusting of metal components and cracking of plastic components.16
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
REPLACE INTERIOR LIGHT BULB
When supplied with an interior light, your refrigerator uses a 15 Watt appliance light bulb. To replace the light bulb, proceed as follows:
1. Unplug the power cord from the power supply.
2. Open the cabinet door and remove the glass shelves.
3. Remove the 3 screws on the front face of the light lens using a Phillips screwdriver.
5. Unscrew the existing bulb and replace with an equivalent 15 Watt, threaded, intermediate base appliance bulb.
Do not replace with a bulb higher than 15 Watts.
To clean the light assembly, disconnect the power cord and let the light cool. Wipe the assembly with a mildly damp cloth. Dry the unit completely before connecting the power cord. Make sure you disconnect the refrig- erator’s power cord plug from the electrical receptacle BEFORE you clean the light assembly. THINGS TO REMEMBER. . .
1. Allow 24 hours for your refrigerator to reach a new temperature setting.
2. The motor will start and stop often. It must do this to maintain the temperature you select.
3. Keep your refrigerator reasonably level.
4. Unplug the refrigerator before working on anything with the electrical system.
5. Exercise caution when sweeping, vacuuming, or mopping near the front of the unit. Damage to the grill and/or
the light fixture switch can occur.
6. For all cleaning of the refrigerator interior, mix 2 tablespoons baking soda with 1 quart warm water or use mild
soap. Do not use strong cleaners or scouring powder or pads.
7. Keep your refrigerator out of direct sunlight.
8. Do not splash or spray water on or under the refrigerator.
9. Clean your refrigerator’s condenser periodically to maintain proper cooling performance.
1. Reduce door openings.
2. Close the door as soon as you can.
3. Keep the coils on bottom of the refrigerator clean.
4. Adjust the temperature control to a warmer setting when practical.
5. Don’t put hot foods in the refrigerator.
6. Keep unit away from the stove or other heat sources.17
MOVING OR STORING YOUR REFRIGERATOR
If your refrigerator or beer dispenser is turned off for any reason, wait 10 minutes before turning it back on. This will allow the refrigeration system pressures to equalize before restarting.
MOVING YOUR REFRIGERATOR OR BEER DISPENSER
■ Turn off the appliance and unplug from the power point. Remove all food. ■ Turn the leveling legs in as far as they will turn (see page 4, Stability). ■ Ease the refrigerator out of its position. Tuck the power cord away and tape the doors closed. Tape the shelves in place. If the cabinet needs to be placed at an angle or laid down, carefully lay it on its side (the right hand side when viewed from the front). ■ Relocate and install. If the appliance has been left on its side for any length of time, leave it standing upright for at least 12 hours before turning on.
STORING YOUR REFRIGERATOR OR BEER DISPENSER
■ When storing your cleaned appliance, leave the door open. This allows air to circulate and prevents the build up of bacteria and molds. ■ Before using again, clean well using a mixture of warm water and baking soda (add 1 teaspoon of baking soda to each 1 pint [500 ml] of water). Rinse with clean water. VACATION TIME ■ We recommend you leave your refrigerator/beer dispenser operating while you are on vacation. It will prevent mold and odors from building up. CAUTION! Never transport a refrigerator on it back or side for any distance. This may damage the cooling components.18 TROUBLESHOOTING
