BEFORE FIRST USE

Thoroughly clean and sanitize all parts that will come into contact with ice cream, including the batch bowl, mixing paddle, and lid. See Sanitizing instructions.Warning: Be sure the power cord is unplugged during this process. Important: Always place the Ice Cream Maker upright on a flat and level surface for 24 hours prior to use to ensure the compressor provides optimum performance.

GENERAL OPERATION

When the Ice Cream, Sorbet, or Gelato is ready and has reached ideal consistency for dispensing from the batch bowl the mixing paddle will stop to avoid over-churning but it will continue to chill for the duration of the timer setting chosen.Plugin the unit. The LCD will flash 60:00. The unit is now in standby mode.Touch POWER. The LCD will show 3 programming mode choices.When you touch MENU, you can select the mode you prefer: ICE CREAM, COOLING ONLY, or MIXING ONLY. Once you’ve made your selection, the default processing time for that mode will display, along with the appropriate icon for mixing and/or cooling. At this point and during processing, you can adjust your processing time by touching TIME+ or TIME–.When processing is complete, 00:00 will appear in the display and 3 audible alerts will beep.The unit will enter the COOL mode if no control has been touched within 10 minutes following the completion of processing. This ensures the product in the removable bowl stays cool. In the COOL mode, all touchpad controls except POWER will become inactive. After an additional 10 minutes, if no other function has been selected, the unit will go into standby mode (LCD displays 00).

For optimum consistency, chill all mixtures for a minimum of 2 hours, or up to 3 days. Always re-whisk the mixture after chilling to be sure all ingredients are well combined. While chilling the mixture is not required, this step will prevent any “ice” or “fat” crystals from forming during the freezing process for resting it in a chilled environment helps bind the ingredients together.If a firmer consistency is desired, transfer to an airtight container and place in the freezer for about 2 hours. Remove from freezer about 15 minutes before serving.

Motor Protection FunctionTo help protect the machine’s motor from overheating or damage, the unit will stop mixing when the motor temperature reaches about 115°C/239°F. The unit will automatically reset itself once the motor temperature drops below 115°C/239°F. You are not required to unplug or turn off the machine.

COMPRESSOR PROTECTION FUNCTION

If the Cooling mode is paused or turned off, there will be a 3-minute delay for the compressor to turn back on and begin cooling again. The cooling icon will still be displayed but no cooling will be taking place. This delay protects the compressor from damage and ensures optimum performance..Controlling the Volume of the IngredientsTo avoid overflow and waste, keep ingredients about ¼” under the top of the mixing paddle. Ice cream expands to different degrees depending on the recipe as it’s processed.

The Differences Among the Three Working Modes

  1. ICE CREAM MODE: The default working time is 60 minutes. In this mode, ice cream, sorbet and frozen yogurt are processed via mixing and cooling.
  2. COOLING ONLY MODE:The default working time is 30 minutes. In this mode, the unit keeps the contents cold, with intermittent mixing. (2-3 times per minute)
  3. MIXING ONLY MODE:The default working time is 10 minutes. This mode is used to mix ingredients, with no cooling.

MAKING ICE CREAM

Step 1. Prepare ingredients using your favorite recipe.NOTE: You do not need to freeze the removable bowl in advance. This machine has a BUILT-IN COMPRESSOR that freezes the ingredients for you.

Step 2. Place the batch bowl into the freezing chamber, and press down firmly.Step 3. Place the mixing paddle into the batch bowl, being sure to engage the bottom hole in the mixing paddle with the motor axis.Step 4. Pour the ingredients into the batch bowl. Keep ingredients about ¼” under the top of the mixing paddle. Place the lid onto the machine and turn it counterclockwise to lock into place.Step 5. Touch POWER to turn unit on.Step 6. Touch MENU to choose the desired mode.Step 7. Touch TIME+ or TIME– to set the processing time.Step 8. Touch START/PAUSE to start processing.Step 9. When processing is complete, an alert will beep. Turn off the machine by touching POWER, remove lid, then lift out the batch bowl.Step 10. Remove the mixing paddle and use a plastic scoop or wooden spoon to remove the finished ice cream and place it in another container for storage. Do not use a metal scoop, which could scratch the inside of the batch bowl.Step 11. If a firmer consistency is desired, transfer to an airtight container and place in the freezer for about 2 hours. Remove from freezer about 15 minutes before serving.

CLEANING AND SANITIZING

CAUTION: THE POWER CORD MUST BE UNPLUGGED BEFORE PROCEEDING TO AVOID ELECTRIC SHOCK.

TO CLEAN AND SANITIZE BATCH BOWL, PADDLE, AND LIDThe batch bowl, mixing paddle, and lid must be cleaned and sanitized before initial use and after each use unless the unit is going to be used again within one hour. Failure to do so may allow residue of processed material to collect on the internal seals of the drive assembly, rendering them ineffective.NOTE: In repetitive batch-processing applications, cleaning the batch bowl between batches will prolong the life of the drive assembly.

WASHUse only low-foaming powdered detergents formulated for cleaning dishware and cooking utensils. These products can be purchased from restaurant and commercial food service suppliers. Follow the detergent manufacturer’s instructions.1. Remove lid, batch bowl, and paddle from the unit.2. Hand-wash the batch bowl with detergent. Do not put the batch bowl in the dishwasher.3. The lid and mixing paddle can be washed by hand or in a commercial dishwasher. Use the brush to clean inside the bottom hole of the mixing paddle before placing in the dishwasher.4. Pre-clean stubborn food deposits with brush and presoak in the detergent solution if necessary.Any other servicing should be performed by an authorized service representative.

RINSEUse only water to rinse.

SANITIZE

Use regular, unscented bleach diluted with water between 50°F and 120ºF. The sanitizing dilutions are based on the hypochlorite concentration of the bleach. The dilutes for 2 commonly available bleach concentrations are:

  • Hypochlorite: 5.25%–3 teaspoons bleach per gallon of water
  • Hypochlorite 8.25%–2 teaspoons bleach per gallon of water1. Wet a soft cloth or sponge with a bleach dilution listed above.2. Wipe down interior and exterior of lid, batch bowl, and mixing paddle.3. Place the batch bowl into the freezing chamber, install the paddle and fill it with sanitizing solution above the mixing paddle. Cover with lid (to prevent splashing) and run on MIXING ONLY for 2 minutes. Empty batch bowl.4. Immerse lid in sanitizing solution and soak for 2 minutes.

AIR-DRYDo not rinse after sanitizing is completed. Drain the sanitizing solution and allow parts to air-dry.

TO CLEAN AND SANITIZE HOUSING BASE AND FREEZING CHAMBER

The housing and freezing chamber must be cleaned and sanitized before first use, and whenever the unit has come into contact with food.Remove the vent cover on the rear of the unit.

  1. To clean: Wipe down exterior housing and freezing chamber with a wet cloth. Remove and clean under the vent cover if necessary.
  2. To sanitize; Wipe the entire exterior housing and freezing chamber with a soft cloth or sponge that has been dampened with sanitizing solution* and wrung out to avoid any excess solution running into housing vents in the base. DO NOT IMMERSE HOUSING IN WASHING SOLUTION, RINSE WATER, OR SANITIZE SOLUTION.
  3. Allow air-drying.
  4. Reinstall the vent cover on the rear of the unit.

*Use only sanitizing solutions recommended above.
