you should also follow these other rules when using the BeerTender
system:
1. Do not attempt to chill a BeerTender Keg in your freezer. just like glass
bottles, a keg may burst when placed in the freezer. moreover, freezing
diminishes the quality of the beer -
fig. 29
.
2. Use your BeerTender in a place where the temperature is between
12°C and 30°C. at colder temperatures the appliance cooling system
could be damaged, whereas at warmer temperatures the system will
not be able to reach the ideal beer dispensing temperature. store the
beer keg at room temperature -
fig. 4
.
WArNING!
To avoid overheating, keep the BeerTender Keg out of
direct sunlight -
fig. 30
.
3. always hold the appliance by the bottom edge when lifting it -

UsING ThE KEG
n
make sure that you chill the keg before using it. If you fail to chill the keg
sufficiently too much foam will be produced when you start to pour beer.
n
Please also be aware that the first glass that you pour from every new keg
will contain mostly foam. Draught beer in a bar behaves in exactly the same
way!
n
The BeerTender Keg “Compatible BeerTender” features a patented system for
storing and dispensing beer. It guarantees beer of higher, long-lasting quality
and a BeerTender system that is very easy and pleasant to use -

.
ImPorTANT:
before installing a keg inside the appliance, check the “best
before end” date shown at the bottom of the keg. This date is a reliable
indication if the keg has been stored at room temperature.
n
The use of kegs “Compatible BeerTender” in the BeerTender system
necessitate the use of beer tubes -
fig. 7
. a bag of 5 tubes is delivered with the
BeerTender appliance. To receive additional tubes, please contact our customer
service or go to BeerTender Internet site. (see details at the end of this manual)
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.
