5.2 Operation
Before the first use, the device should be thoroughly cleaned according to the
instructions in section
6 “Cleaning“
, whereas possible remnants after the
manufacturing process or packaging should be removed in a safe way.
Finally, dry all the cleaned parts.
NOTE!
For hygienic reasons the first batch of crushed ice should be thrown away
and not used for drinks, as the inside of the device may contain traces of
cleaning chemicals.
The ice crusher should be operated empty for approx. 2 - 3 minutes to check that it
is free from defects (e.g. unusual noises or incorrect rotation of blades).
Open the glass lid and fill the filling chute with ice.
CAUTION!
Only crush ice cubes produced by an ice machine and not those from a freezer!
NOTE!
The quantity of ice to be crushed should be measured so as to allow closing of
the glass lid without resistance.
Ice cubes should be no larger than 40 x 40 x 40 mm.
Press the bottom of the glass lid. This is the only manner in which the device's
automatic switch can be activated.
Insert the collection tray far enough so that it 'clicks' in place. By doing so, the
automatic switch is activated and the device will begin working.
CAUTION!
For safety reasons the device may only be used when the collection tray is
properly inserted and the bottom part of the glass lid has been pressed down,
activating both contact switches.
