INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

BEFORE USE:

  • The beauty of homemade ices is that you can tailor the ingredients to your tastes and dietary requirements, and use seasonal fruits to flavour. For some simple ideas to get you started, see `Recipes’.
  • Place the freezer bowl in the freezer for at least 12 hours before use.
  1. Choose a recipe and prepare your mixture and let it cool.Note: Chill the ingredients in the fridge before use. Warm ingredients or ingredients at room temperature will prolong the preparation time.
  2. Take the freezer bowl from the freezer and insert into the freezer bowl hoop, then holding the edge of the black hoop place inside the outer container. Attach the lid with the power unit, timer and paddle.WARNING: Use a dry towel to hold the freezer bowl. Direct contact with the frozen bowl may make your hands stick to the freezer bowl. If this happens, hold your hands under warm running water for a few moments.
  3. Insert the plug into the socket and switch it on. The screen will light up and show 40:00 on the control panel.
  4. Set the selected preparation time (00.05 – 45.00 minutes) by pressing the “arrow” buttons. Each time you press the arrow buttons, it will change in 5 minutes increments. Press the POWER button and select the duration for which you wish the ice cream maker to run. Your ice cream maker will start automatically after 3 seconds. The remaining time left will then count down on the LED display screen.
  5. Pour your mixture into the ice cream maker through the chute opening.Note: The ice cream maker must be switched on with the paddle turning before you pour your mixture into the freezer bowl. This stops the mixture immediately freezing against the inside wall of the container.DO NOT pour too much mixture into the bowl. Leave at least 4cm from the top of the bowl, so that the mixture can expand in volume during preparation.
  6. Let the ice cream maker run until the ice cream has reached the correct consistency. The ice cream maker will only stop turning when the timer has finished, but your ice cream may be ready sooner. The preparation time depends on the recipe and the temperature of the ingredients and the room.• Do not turn off the appliance before the ice cream is ready. If it is switched off too early, the ingredients may freeze against the inside wall of the freezer bowl.• The time needed to reach the consistency you require may be shorter or longer than the time in the recipe due to the temperature of the ingredients or the room temperature. If you need less time; switch off the appliance and take out the rotation blade. You can set the Digital Ice Cream Maker for a longer time if you need a thicker consistency.• Use a plastic or wooden spoon or spatula to scrape the ice cream from the ice container. Metal spoons or spatulas can cause damage to the freezer bowl.
  7. When you’ve finished, turn off the ice cream maker by pressing the power switch and unplug the appliance from the socket. Serve the ice cream or transfer to a separate container and store in your freezer.

HINTS AND TIPS

  • Always remember to put the bowl in your freezer 12 hours in advance.
  • Chill the ingredients in the fridge before use.
  • The times indicated in these recipes are guidelines. The actual preparation time depends on the ingredients used, the temperature of the ingredients and the room temperature. Monitor the mixture through the transparent lid and adjust the timer if necessary.
  • Make sure all the ingredients are thoroughly mixed, the sugar has completely dissolved and the mixture has cooled before pouring your mixture into the maker.
  • For the fullest flavour, choose ripe fruits. Wash carefully, remove all seeds, skin and core, and chop into small pieces.
  • Metal spoons or scoops will scratch the freezer bowl. Use plastic or wooden utensils.
