EdgeStar Built-in Kegerator

Installing the Kegerator
The kegerator should be installed in accordance with local electrical code
requirements. The kegerator should also be placed in a location that is
strong enough to support its total weight, keeping in mind that it will weigh
substantially more when fully loaded than when empty.
Before you plug the kegerator into a power supply, be sure to let it stand
upright for at least 24 hours to allow the compressor’s oils to settle.
Unpacking the Kegerator
WARNING
: Use two more people to move and install the kegerator.
Failure to do so can result in back or other injury. Carefully remove the
packaging materials. Remove any shipping tape and glue from your
kegerator before using. Do not use sharp instruments, rubbing alcohol,
flammable fluids, or abrasive cleaners to remove tape or glue. These
products can damage the surface of your kegerator.
IMPORTANT
: Do not remove any safety, warning, or product information
labels from your kegerator.
Electrical Requirements
Before you move your kegerator into its final location, it is important to
make sure you have the proper electrical connection:
A standard electrical supply (115 V, 60Hz), properly grounded in
accordance with the National Electrical Code and local codes and
ordinances, is required.
It is recommended that a separate circuit, serving only your kegerator, be
provided. Use receptacles that cannot be turned off by a switch or pull
chain.
The fuse (or circuit breaker) size should be 3 Amps.
Recommended grounding method
For your personal safety, this appliance must be grounded. It is equipped
with a power supply cord having a 3-prong grounding plug. To minimize
possible shock hazard, the cord must be plugged into a mating 3-pronged
wall socket, and grounded in accordance with the National Electrical
Code and local codes and ordinances. If a mating wall socket is not
available, it is the personal responsibility of the customer to have a
properly grounded, 3-prong wall receptacle installed by a qualified
electrician.
ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD!
Plug into a grounded 3-prong outlet.
Never remove the grounding prong from the plug.
Never use an adapter to bypass the grounding prong.
DO NOT use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in fire,
electrical shock, or death.
