Overcooling may give rise to issues such as unintended stopping of operation, damage to the product
itself or any part, or malfunction of the power delivery axis. There may be excessive noise or smell due to
abrasion. Any issue inside the product may result in the formation of foreign object in the ice cream.
Refer to the main causes of overcooling for safe operation.
1. Using the exclusive liquid ingredient supplied by the manufacturer is recommended.
Mixing powdered ingredient with water or milk must be done based on the ratio
recommended by the manufacturer.
(The ice cream maker makes ice cream with appropriately mixed ingredients.
Powdered ingredient may cause precipitation or separation of ingredients, leading to
overcooling. Making ice cream under such conditions will cause more issues
with ice cream.)
2. Mixing the recommended ingredient with other additives or arbitrarily adjusting the mixing
ratio of a diluted ingredient may lead either to the proper icing of ice cream or
to overcooling. The manufacturer is not liable for any issue arising from improper use or
mixing of ingredient.
Be sure to check and follow the diluting ratio.
3. Mixing of powdered ingredient must be done by hand slowly.
If mixing is done fast with the maker, too much oxygen may get into the mixture,
resulting in oxidization or clotting of ingredient. In such case, the ingredient will coagulate
into a form similar to soft tofu, causing difficulty in the supply of ingredient and overcooling.
4. If ingredient is not supplied normally to the inside of the drum where ice cream is made,
leading to lack of ingredient, overcooling may occur. Check the amount of ingredient
frequently to prevent such issues. Even if enough ingredient is in the hopper,
coagulation may cause the clogging of the carburetor (mixing valve) that supplies
the ingredient to the drum and prevent the proper supply of ingredient. Be sure to remove
and clean the carburetor frequently.
5. If the maker is not used for an extended period of time, the waiting time of the ingredient
is extended, causing freezing in the hopper as well as separation of fat in the process
of making or keeping ice cream during the waiting time. In such case, ice cream may
get too thin, or the maker may be overcooled. Be sure to operate the maker regularly
even though there is no demand for ice cream to prevent such waiting time.
6. Repeated use of ingredient may deteriorate the quality of ice cream and cause overcooling.
Be sure to refill with new ingredient after cleaning instead of reusing the old one.
7. In case of voltage fluctuation or low voltage/high voltage, the current can be influenced, so there
could be variation on the discharge amount at the rated voltage state.
Therefore, adjusting setting value and piston open time is necessary.
