READ ALL SAFETY INFORMATION BEFORE USING
GROUNDING
INSTRUCTIONS
FOR YOUR
SAFETY...
Pertaining to the risk
of Fire, Electric Shock
or Injury to Persons.
WARNING CO
CAN BE
DANGEROUS!
CO
Cylinders when
2
charged contain high
pressure compressed gas
which can be hazardous if
not handled properly. Read
and understand the
following procedures for
CO
cylinders before
2
installation;
WARNING
If it becomes difficult to
breathe and/or your head
starts to ache, abnormal con-
centrations of carbon dioxide
(CO
) may be present in the
2
area....
CLOSE THE MAIN VALVE ON
THE CO 2 CYLINDER,
VENTILATE AND LEAVE THE
ROOM IMMEDIATELY!
• This appliance must be grounded. In the event of a
malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk
of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance
for electric current.
• This appliance is equipped with a power cord having an
equipment grounding conductor and grounding plug. The
plug must be plugged into an appropriate wall outlet that
is installed and grounded in accordance with all existing
local codes and ordinances.
• Consult a qualified electrician or serviceman if the
grounding instructions are not clearly understood, or if
doubt exist as to whether your electrical wall outlets are
properly grounded.

(b) One at or on the
product container coupler
in the pressure gas line.
NOTE: The regulator and keg
coupler supplied with this unit
are inclusive of such safety
mechanisms.
8. CO 2 gas cylinders should
be stored in the coolest
