Use and Care Manual

EdgeStar Kegerator 6
Normal Sounds
Your new kegerator may make sounds that are not familiar to you.
Most of the new sounds are normal. Hard surfaces like the floor or
walls can make the sounds seem louder than they actually are. The
following describes the kinds of sounds that might be new to you
and what may be making them.
Rattling noises may come from the flow of the refrigerant or
the water line. Items stored on top of the kegerator can also
make noises.
The high efficiency compressor may make a pulsating or
high-pitched sound.
Water running from the evaporator to the water bin may
make a splashing or sound.
As each cycle ends, you may hear a gurgling sound due to
the refrigerant flowing in your kegerator.
Cracking or popping sounds are caused by the expanding
and / or contracting of the cooling coils.
Preparing the Kegerator for Storage
If the kegerator will not be used for a long time, or is to be moved to
another place, it will be necessary to defrost the unit and dry the
interior.
1. Disconnect the unit from the power supply by removing the
power plug from the wall socket.
2. Leave the door open to allow for air circulation and to prevent
mold, mildew and unpleasant smells.
CAUTION: Store the unit out of the reach of children. If you have
children, you may want to take additional precautions such as
removing the door to prevent a child from being trapped inside the
unit!
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
A regular cleaning once every 2 weeks of the faucet, beer hose,
and keg coupler is extremely important when the Draft Beer
Dispenser is used frequently. If this is not performed, the beer will
foam. Additionally bacteria, yeast, mold, and beer stone will build
up and quickly degrade the quality of draft beer. A few minutes
spent cleaning on a regular basis will add life to your system, and
improve the quality of your draft beer!
IMPORTANT:
Do not touch the power plug
when your hands are wet.
Never unplug the unit by
pulling on the plug.
