Instructions for Use
A Before using for the first time
DO NOT immerse the housing base in water. Wipe it with a damp cloth. Wash the lid, freezer bowl
and mixing arm in warm, soapy water to remove any dust or residue from the manufacturing and
shipping process. DO NOT clean any of the parts with abrasive cleaners or hard implements.
B Freezing time and bowl preparation
The freezer bowl must be completely frozen before you begin your recipe. Before freezing, wash and
dry the bowl completely. The length of time needed to reach the frozen state depends on how cold
your freezer is. It is recommended that you place the freezer bowl in the back of your freezer where
it is coldest. Be sure to place the freezer bowl on a flat surface in its upright position for even freezing.
Generally, freezing time is between 16 and 24 hours. Shake the bowl to determine whether it is
completely frozen. If you do not hear the liquid within the bowl moving, the cooling liquid is
therefore frozen. For the most convenient frozen desserts and drinks, leave your freezer bowl in the
freezer at all times. Use the bowl immediately after removing from the freezer. It will begin to
quickly defrost once it has been removed from the freezer.
Reminder:
Your freezer should be set to at least 0°C to ensure proper freezing of all foods.
