4 - Before use  
Child Safety Lock  
* Make sure that children can not play with the  
appliance.  
* Do not leave the materials used to pack the appliance  
within childrenʼs reach.  
* To prevent children from using the appliance, you can  
remove the tap handle. To remove the handle, make  
sure that it is in an upright position and pull upward.  
Fire prevention  
In the event of a fire, use carbon dioxide (CO2)  
extinguishers.  
Do not use water or powder extinguishers.  
Setup and Maintenance  
* Install the BeerTender® in an upright position in a safe  
place.  
* To ensure that the BeerTender works correctly and  
efficiently, the following is strongly advised:  
* Place it on a perfectly level and stable surface.*  
Choose a clean, well-lit area with an easily accessible  
electric socket.  
* Keep the appliance at a minimum distance (4 inches)  
from the stove as shown in the diagram.  
* Keep the appliance at a minimum distance  
(2 ½ inches) from the walls.  
TM  
54°F  
* Store the DraughtKeg at room temperature or in the  
refrigerator.  
86°F  
* Make sure the BeerTender is not exposed to direct  
sunlight.  
* Do not use the BeerTender outdoors.  
* Do not place the BeerTender on very hot surfaces or  
near open flames, as these may melt or damage the  
casing.  
* Your BeerTender uses a technology that delivers  
ultimate cooling results when the ambient temperature  
is between 54°F and 86°F. At colder temperatures, the  
appliance cooling system could be damaged. At  
warmer temperatures, the cooling system will not be  
able to reach the temperature you program.  
Warning! To avoid overheating, always keep the  
BeerTender appliance out of direct sunlight. To obtain  
good cooling performance, never install your machine in  
a room with an ambient temperature above 86°F.

5 - Using the BeerTender® System  
* Always hold the appliance by the bottom edge when  
lifting.  
* To obtain draught beer of optimal quality you should  
keep two basic factors in mind, the temperature of the  
beer and hygienic conditions. Follow these few simple  
steps for the ideal use of BeerTender®.  
A new draught beer tube should be used with  
TM  
each DraughtKeg  
An initial package of draught beer tube is included  
with your machine. Additional draught beer tubes  
can be ordered from Heineken. Go to  
Chilling the DraughtKeg  
1. Before pouring a draught beer, it is very important that  
the Heineken and Heineken Premium Light  
DraughtKeg reach the correct temperature.  
2. Ensure DraughtKeg is sufficiently chilled before  
pouring a draught beer. DraughtKegs will produce too  
much foam. It is ideal to purchase the DraughtKeg  
pre-chilled or pre-chill over night before intended use.  
If the DraughtKeg needs additional chilling, there are 2  
recommended options:  
a. Inside the BeerTender – Depending on the  
temperature of the DraughtKeg, it will take  
up to 18 hours to chill to the ideal serving  
temperature.  
b. In a refrigerator – Depending on the  
temperature of your refrigerator, it will take up to  
12 hours to chill to the ideal serving temperature.  
Tip: We recommend that you always keep an extra  
DraughtKeg in your refrigerator to always have a chilled  
DraughtKeg available.  
Preparing the BeerTender  
IMPORTANT: It is important that the BeerTender power  
switch is turned on before inserting the DraughtKeg. This  
allows the scale to reset and accurately measure the  
amount of beer left in the keg. If you remove a partially  
full DraughtKeg from an operating machine or open the  
lid while power is on, the scale will need to be reset.  
7
 
1-Beertender one way B95 US.qxd:1-B95 oneway Amsterdam_UK.qxd 7/01/08 10:43 Page 8  
Simply open the lid and lft up the keg for approximately  
5-10 seconds before setting back into the machine and  
closing the lid.  
* After setting up the BeerTender and before use, it is  
vital to clean the detachable pour spout – this is the  
only part of the appliance that will come into contact  
with the beer. The spout should be rinsed by hand.  
After cleaning, screw back into place.  
* Before inserting the DraughtKeg into the BeerTender,  
simply snap the patented disposable draught beer  
tube (included) onto the DraughtKeg.  
* Open the BeerTender cover by pressing in the release  
panel on the front of the machine.  
* Open the tap spout cover by turning counter  
clockwise.  
* Insert DraughtKeg into BeerTender and position the  
draught beer tube as shown on drawing.  
* Close the tap by turning clockwise and snapping into  
place.  
* Carefully close the lid.  
* Set the drip tray and grate in place at the front of the  
appliance. Make sure the drip tray is properly fitted  
and positioned.  
WARNING! The drip tray must be positioned on a level  
surface and must not jut out from the surface it is resting  
on.

panel. This resets the 30 day calendar and will

Draughtkeg.

1-Beertender one way B95 US.qxd:1-B95 oneway Amsterdam_UK.qxd 7/01/08 10:43 Page 9  
* Adjust to the desired temperature by pressing the  
thermometer button on the righthand side of the  
display panel.  
* The top temperature readout reflects the  
42°F  
39°F  
36°F  
temperature inside the Draughtkeg.  
* The bottom temperature next to the thermometer  
image reflects your desired temperature.  
* Wait for your ideal temperature to be reached  
before pouring a beer.  
* Volume indicator – the barrel on the lefthand side of  
the display screen reflects the volume left in your  
DraughtKeg™.  
* There are 4 volume levels – when down to the  
bottom level, the panel will flash indicating your  
DraughtKeg is almost empty.  
* Never immerse the appliance in water.  
Pouring a beer from the BeerTender  
* Before pouring a beer, rinse clean glass in cold water  
which chills the glass and wets the inside to enable a  
perfectly smooth draught pour. Use of 8 oz glasses is  
recommended to maintain the ideal serving  
temperature.  
Draught and Drink  
* Be aware that the first glass you pour from every new  
DraughtKeg will contain mostly foam. This is typical of  
draught beer. Allow the foam to settle and continue to  
pour.  
* Tilt and pour: Tilt your glass at a 45 degree angle as  
you pour and adjust upright as the glass fills.  
* Ensure you pull the tap handle all the way down. Not  
opening the handle all the way will result in excessive  
foam.  
* For the optimal draught beer drinking experience,  
serve your beer with a foam head of 2 fingers in height  
(approximately 1.5”).  
Proper Care and Cleaning of your BeerTender  
* The drip tray and grate should be emptied and  
cleaned after each use.  
* Before cleaning the appliance, it is essential to turn off  
the main power switch and then pull the plug out of the  
socket.  
9
 
1-Beertender one way B95 US.qxd:1-B95 oneway Amsterdam_UK.qxd 7/01/08 10:43 Page 10  
* Keep in mind that during use the drip tray will  
have to be emptied and rinsed regularly. The tray  
and grate are dishwasher safe or can be washed  
by hand with a mild detergent. Dry completely.  
* Always wipe down the interior of the BeerTender after  
use. Beer is a natural product that can spoil.  
Therefore, you should always keep the appliance  
clean to maintain the quality of the beer dispensed and  
avoid unpleasant odors.  
* Rinse the pour spout between uses for optimal results.  
Handwash with warm soapy water. Do not wash in  
dishwasher.  
* To remove, unscrew turning counterclockwise  
from main unit. To re-attach, simply screw back  
in place turning clockwise.  
* You should never attempt to access internal parts of  
the appliance.  
IMPORTANT: After cleaning, ensure all parts of your  
BeerTender have completely dried before closing the  
lid.  
Storing the BeerTender  
* When the BeerTender is not being used for a long  
TM  
period of time, remove the DraughtKeg and turn the  
main switch to off.  
* Remove the plug from the power outlet.  
* Store the BeerTender at room temperature in a dry  
place out of childrenʼs reach.  
* Protect from dust and dirt.
