4.
Remove the freezer canister from the
freezer.
5.
Place drive unit with the cover on the
freezer canister. Make sure that all
the locking tabs are aligned. Rotate the
cover clockwise slightly so that the tabs
lock in place. (Fig. 4)
9.
To add ingredients after the
freezing process has started,
slowly add them through the feeder
hole.
10. To avoid overheating the motor,
the direction of the rotation will
change when the mixture becomes
too thick. If the direction of the
rotation continues to change, the
mixture is completely prepared.
Turn the unit off.
11. Remove the cover with the paddle
from the ice cream mixture. Use
only rubber, plastic or wooden
utensil to serve or remove from the
freezer canister. Metal utensils
may damage the freezer canister.
12. To further harden the ice cream,
you may place the freezer canister
in the freezer for a short period of
time (no longer than thirty minutes).
For longer freezing time. You
should empty the ice cream in an
airtight container.
Your ice cream maker can make up to 1
1/2 quarts of ice cream. Due to an
increase in volume when freezing the
ingredients, you should not exceed 1
quart of liquid ingredients. If you are using
your own recipes, adapt the volume of the
mixture not to exceed this amount.
1. Place the freezer canister into the
coldest part of your freezer the day
before. See chart for approximate
freezing time.
2. Make sure that the On/Off button is in
the "Off" position.
3. To assemble the unit, insert the drive
unit into the cover until it locks in
place. The two tabs on the bottom of
the drive unit will lock into the cover.

•
Double insulated freezer canister.
Double insulated walls keep the
freezer canister colder for longer
periods and for better freezing results.
The gel inside these double walls
provides thorough and even
freezing throughout use.
•
See through cover with feeder hole.
The see through cover allows you to
keep an eye on the freezing process.
The convenient feeder hole allows
you to add ingredients without having
to stop the unit to do so.
Remove all packing materials and
manuals form inside your new gel
canister ice cream maker.

damage your appliance. Power head may
be wiped clean with a damp cloth. Do
NOT
clean appliance in dishwasher.

starts to thaw once it is removed
from the freezer.

after the freezer canister is completely
dry, slide on the lower ring first aligning
the hole for the release button with the
arrow on the freezer canister. Then
insert the upper ring making sure that
the two rings snap together.
Do
NOT
wash any part in a dishwasher.

NOT
use sharp utensils, scouring
pads or abrasive cleansers to clean the
freezer canister.

The most important step in making frozen
desserts, is making sure that the freezer
canister is completely frozen. The Bravetti
Gel Canister Ice Cream Maker features a
double walled insulated freezer canister
for perfect frozen desserts every time. To
freeze your canister, wrap it in a large
resealable freezer bag and place it
upright in the coldest part of your freezer.
Using a resealable freezer bag prevents
ice crystals from forming on the freezer
canister. The length of time to properly
freeze the freezer canister depends on
how cold your freezer temperature is. To
make sure that your freezer canister is
properly frozen, you should not hear any
gel moving within the freezer canister
when you shake it.
