Operating the appliance
Attention: Hazard of injury!
• During operation, do not put any object in the appliance or
reach with your hands in the filling hole!
• To avoid injuries it is imperative to keep away your hair,
hands and clothes from the running stirrer!
• Do not touch the frozen freezer bowl with wet hands!
Important notes:
!
We recommend to allow the motor unit to cool down for at least 15 minutes between two preparation
processes.
!
The appliance is equipped with several safety functions so that the motor will not suffer any damage in
case of overheating resp. blockade of the stirrer.
°
Overheating:
The appliance switches off in case of motor overheating. After cooling down, the
appliance starts operation again automatically. Please note that the timer continues running during
the cooling phase.
°
Blocking:
If the ice cream gets too hard during preparation, the motor blocks. This is recognizable
by frequent right left movements of the stirrer. In that case stop the process by pressing the button
“start/pause”.
1.) Preparing the appliance for operation
• Place the empty and dry freezer bowl
for at least 12 hours
in a 4-star freezer compartment at
- 18 °C
. Please pay increased attention that the freezer bowl is placed upright and horizontally to
allow the coolant inside to distribute evenly.
•
Tip:
We recommend to store the freezer bowl permanently in the freezer so that you always can start
ice cream making without a long waiting time beforehand. Use the provided lid to protect the bowl
against soiling.
• Prepare the raw ice cream mixture in a separate, clean bowl and pre-chill it in the refrigerator for at
least 2 to 3 hours. The temperature of the mixture should not exceed 2 - 4 °C. Observe the maximum
filling quantity of 500 ml.
NOTE:
Do not pour hot liquids into the freezer bowl. Too large differences in temperature between
freezer bowl and contents may cause damage to the freezer bowl.
• Always unplug the appliance before assembly.
• Insert the motor unit into the upper part of the casing and press it down until it clicks into place.
• Insert the stirrer into the opening of the motor block until it stops.
• Don´t take the frozen freezer bowl out of the freezer and insert it into the base of the casing until
immediately before using the appliance.
• Place the assembled upper part of casing onto the base of the casing and let both lateral locking
clamps click into place. Pay increased attention to both white arrows at the base and at the upper
part of casing.
2.) Start the appliance and pour in the prepared mixture
• Connect the appliance to the mains.
