Krups BeerTender Manual Del Usuario página 7

Fix a beer tube at the top of the keg by simply pressing
firmly on the push button.
Warning: Contents under pressure. Do not shake or
drop. Do not expose to sunlight or temperatures above
30°C. Even when the keg is empty, do not force it open
and do not expose to flame or fire.
5 Getting the BeerTender ready
For your own and others' safety, please keep
meticulously to the "Safety rules" described in chap.3.
Cooling the BeerTender Keg
BeerTender kegs must be chilled before use. Using a
BeerTender keg that is too warm will result in too much
foam.
There are two ways to chill the BeerTender Keg:
1. Inside the BeerTender (see "Using the
BeerTender"). It will take about 15 hours to cool
the keg down to 3°C if the BeerTender Keg and the
appliance are stabilized at a room temperature of
20°C.
2. In a refrigerator. This will take about 12 hours
depending on the cooling capacity of your
refrigerator.
Tip: we recommend that you always keep an extra
BeerTender Keg in the refrigerator. That way you will
always have a chilled keg available.
We also recommend you to switch the appliance at
least one hour before intended use to get full benefit
from the pre-cooling of the keg.
Warning! Do not attempt to chill the keg in a freezer.
Just like glass bottles, a keg may burst when placed in
the freezer. Moreover, freezing diminishes the quality of
the beer.
Installing the BeerTender appliance
The original packing is designed and made to protect
the appliance.
You are recommended to keep it for future transport.

Remove the BeerTender appliance from the packing
container and place it on a dry, clean, level, stable
surface that is sufficiently large to accommodate it.
12°C
The temperature of the room must be between 12°C
30°C
and 30°C. If ambient temperatures is outside these
brackets, your BeerTender will not be able to deliver the
set regulation temperature of 3°C.
Set the drip tray and grate in place at the front of the
appliance. Make sure the drip tray is properly fitted and
positioned.
Do not install the appliance near sources of heat or in
places exposed to direct sunlight.
Note: keep in mind that during use the drip tray will
have to be emptied and rinsed regularly. When the
BeerTender system is not being used, you can remove
the drip tray and place it elsewhere to save space.
Warning! The drip tray must be positioned on a level
surface and must not jut out from the surface it is
resting on.
After installing the BeerTender appliance you must
clean the dispensing spout; this is the only part of the
appliance that will come into contact with the beer.
It is vital that you wash the dispensing spout before
using the appliance for the first time and at least every
time a new keg is connected inside the BeerTender
system. This part can also be washed in a dishwasher.
To clean the spout, remove it from its housing.
After washing the spout, screw it back into place.
Connecting to the power supply
Electricity can be dangerous! Therefore you must
always scrupulously abide by the safety rules.
The appliance must be plugged into a suitable, properly
installed electric socket with an earth connection.
The voltage of the appliance has been set in the factory.
Check that the mains voltage matches the voltage indicated
on the rating plate on the rear of the appliance.
