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.
Plug in 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 alert 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 freezer for about 2 hours. Remove from freezer about
15 minutes before serving.
