Care and Maintenance
Cleaning your kegerator:
• Turn off the power, unplug the appliance, and remove all items including the dispense kit.
• Wash the inside surfaces with warm water and baking soda solution. The solution should be about 2
tablespoons of baking soda to a quart of water.

• Wash the outside cabinet with warm water and mild liquid detergent. Rinse and wipe dry with a clean soft cloth.
• Do not use steel wool or a steel brush on the stainless steel. These will contaminate the stainless steel with steel
particles and rusting may occur.
• Dust the front grill and back of the unit twice yearly. Make sure the power is off before cleaning.

Energy Saving Tips
• Place the unit in the coolest area of the room, away from heat-producing appliances and out of direct sunlight
• Let heated items and beverages cool to room temperature before placing them into the appliance
• Do not overload the beer dispenser as it forces the compressor to run longer
• Wrap items properly and wipe containers dry before placing them in the unit to cut down on frost build-up
• Do not line shelves with aluminum foil, wax paper, or paper towels, as liners can interfere with cold air
circulation, reducing cooling efficiency
• Position items so that air can circulate freely around them
• Do not leave door open for longer than required
• Make sure items do not touch the back of the storage compartment
• Do not set the thermostat to exceedingly cold temperatures
