FIRST STEPS This Use and Care Manual provides specific assembly, operating and maintenance instructions for your model. Use the beverage center only as instructed in this Use and Care Manual. Before starting the beverage center, follow these important first steps. PARTS Your beverage center comes with a box that contains all the required parts and accessories. Check to make sure that you have received the box containing all of the components listed below.
FIRST STEPS (continued) FAUCET ASSEMBLY INSTALLATION SUMP VALVE INSTALLATION • Attach faucet knob (9) to Faucet & Shank Assembly (6). • • Slip the Faucet & Shank Assembly (6) through the black plastic collar (7) (flat side toward door), Facade (3), and hole in door. Place one rubber washer (5) on threaded end of sump valve (4). • Slip sump valve with washer through hole in bottom of sump (1). Thread on the large Shank Nut (8) and tighten until snug, using an adjustable wrench. DO NOT over tighten.
FIRST STEPS (continued) BRAIDED HOSE TO REGULATOR CONNECTION CLEAR HOSE TO COUPLER CONNECTION • Slip one Worm Clamp (14) onto braided hose (13). • • Attach that end of the braided hose (13) to the hose barb of the CO2 regulator (10). Push hose up until seated against hex head. • Secure the braided hose (13) to the CO2 regulator (10) using the worm clamp (14). Use a flat tip screwdriver to tightly secure the worm clamp.
FIRST STEPS (continued) DELIVERY HOSE PRESSURIZATION KEG TO CABINET INSTALLATION • • • • Open the CO2 canister valve all the way by turning counterclockwise until it stops. This valve seals at both the fully open and fully closed positions. Failure to completely open or close the valve could result in premature loss of CO2 pressure. Open the regulator shut-off valve by moving it to the 6 o’clock position. Check gauge pressure.
FIRST STEPS (continued) DELIVERY HOSE ARRANGEMENT OPERATING YOUR BEVERAGE CENTER • • Insert the clear hose (12) (delivery hose) into the hose routing clips attached to the door and the cabinet. Follow the hose routing shown below depending on the door swing direction of your door. • • • • • Make sure that the beverage center is plugged in properly to a 115V, 60Hz AC only electrical outlet. Refer to Electrical Information on page 3. Make sure that the drip tray and sump are secured under the faucet.
HELPFUL HINTS BEVERAGE COOLER EXTRA FEATURES PARTS OF A CO2 REGULATOR OPTIONAL CASTER KIT (A) (B) (C) (D) (E) (F) If you’d like to make your beverage center so it can be rolled from room to room, there is an optional caster kit available from your authorized Frigidaire dealer or service center. Just ask for part number 5304451343 - Caster, Rail and Hardware Kit, which includes 2 fixed casters, 2 swivel casters, 2 caster support rails and mounting hardware.
OPTIONAL ICE SERVICE If your beverage center has an automatic ice maker, it will provide a sufficient supply of ice for normal use. However, during the initial startup of your beverage center, no ice will be produced during the first 24 hours of operation. Automatic ice makers are also optional accessories that may be installed in most models at any time. Call your local dealer for information. ICE MAKER TIPS • • The ice maker produces 2 to 5 pounds of ice every 24 hours depending on usage conditions.
ENERGY SAVING TIPS • • • Install the beverage center in the coolest part of the room, out of direct sunlight and away from heating ducts or registers. Do not place the beverage center next to heat-producing appliances such as a range, oven, or dishwasher. Do not overcrowd the beverage center or block cold air vents. Doing so causes the beverage center to run longer and use more energy. Shelves should not be lined with aluminum foil, wax paper, or paper toweling.
NORMAL OPERATING SOUNDS & SIGHTS A. Evaporator UNDERSTANDING THE SOUNDS YOU MAY HEAR The flow of refrigerant through the evaporator may create a boiling or gurgling sound. Your new high-efficiency beverage center may make unfamiliar sounds. These are all normal sounds and soon will become familiar to you. They also indicate your beverage center is operating as designed. Hard surfaces, such as vinyl or wood floors, walls, and kitchen cabinets may make sounds more noticeable.
CARE & CLEANING Keep your beverage center clean to prevent odor build-up. Wipe up any spills immediately and clean both sections at least twice a year. Never use any type of scouring pads, brushes, abrasive cleaners or strong alkaline solutions on any surface. Do not wash any removable parts in a dishwasher. Always unplug the electrical power cord from the wall outlet before cleaning. CAUTION • • • When moving the beverage center, pull straight out.
CARE & CLEANING (continued) PROPER CLEANING OF BEVERAGE CENTER DISPENSING SYSTEM • Your beverage center’s beverage dispensing system needs regular cleaning and sterilization in order to continue serving draft beer with its pure brewery flavor. It is recommended that the delivery lines be cleaned weekly and the entire delivery system cleaned before a new keg is attached. This is a relatively simple task. You will need the following parts to clean your unit’s dispensing system.
