  2. How To Use The Internal Air Compression System
The in-built Air Pressurising System is an alternative to using the CO2 Canister Pressurising System. It involves the same process, but takes longer for the keg to become pressurised.
The Air Pressure System is for use with un-pressurised kegs and the supplied Wunderbar Univat keg. If the keg has no pressure, there is no way for the drink to travel out of the tap.
The Air Pressure System applies pressure to the keg, so is not needed with a pressurised keg.

THINGS YOU WILL NEED:
• A non-pressurised keg (not supplied, 4ltr to 6ltr), or the supplied Wunderbar Univat keg
• Air Hose
• Tap Hose
• Adapter (see guide supplied with the Wunderbar for appropriate adapter)
Please Note: For the purposes of this example we are using the Wunderbar Univat keg supplied with the unit and its matching adapter - whichever keg and appropriate adapter you use utilises the same principle.
Please Note: The Compressed Air is only required with a non-pressurised keg. The pressure applied with the Compressed Air allows the beer to flow easily out of the tap.

STEP 1:
Attach the appropriate adapter to your keg (see guide supplied with the Wunderbar for appropriate adapter) and set the control knob to 'CLOSE'.
Please Note: For the purposes of this example we are using the Wunderbar Univat keg supplied with the unit and its matching adapter - whichever keg and appropriate adapter you use utilises the same principle.

STEP 2:
Place the full keg in the Wunderbar.
Attach the Air Hose to the AIR connection on the Wunderbar and the 'AIR IN' connection on the keg adapter.
Please Note: If you are using the Wunderbar Univat keg, make sure to fill it before you attach the adapter.

STEP 3:
Attach the Tap Hose to the 'BEER OUT' connection of the keg adapter.
Feed the tap hose through the Wunderbar tap with the lever in the open/down position.
When the locking block is in place release the lever into the closed/up position.
Set the control knob on the keg adapter to 'OPEN'
Please Note: You will probably need to cut the tap hose to length so it does not protrude out of the tap.

STEP 4:
Set the air ON/OFF switch to 'ON' and shut the lid of the Wunderbar

THE WUNDERBAR IS READY TO USE:
Just place a glass under the tap and pull the lever down to dispense the drink!
