Operating your Slushie Maker
Your Slushie Maker jug holds up to 1.0L of
slushie mix.
The ingredients will decrease in volume
once the ice crystals have formed.
However to ensure that the brine (ice and
salt) used to make slushies, or the slushie
mixture is not contaminated, you must not
exceed 1.0L capacity in the slushie
container.
MAKING SLUSHIES
1.
Prepare your Slushie liquid (see
recipe ideas.)
2.
Place 30ml liquid into bottom of ice
canister.
3.
Place 1 layer of ice cubes into the ice
canister. Ice canister should be
approximately half full.
4.
Add 2/3 of a cap (using ice/salt inlet
cap) of rock salt or coarse sea salt to
the ice cubes.
5.
Repeat steps 3 and 4. Ice level
should be approximately 2.5cm below
the rim of the ice canister. This leaves
room to add more ice and salt if
required later.
HINT: Regular square
ice cubes work best. NOTE: Ensure
that the spigot is in the closed
position to avoid spillage.
6.
To start the unit, flip the
Mix/Off/Dispense switch up to
“Mix”
position. The slushie and ice paddles
will begin to rotate. Slowly pour your
slushie mixture into the rear section of
the lid. The liquid will pour into the
Slushie container; you will see it
begin to rotate in the Slushie
container.
CAUTION: Do not exceed
1.0L of liquid as indicated with a
MAX line on the Slushie container.
NOTE: Place a cup or glass on the
drink tray when the unit is running
in case of dripping.
7.
Leave the unit on for approximately
10-15 minutes, depending on the
slushie mix used.
8.
Add more ice cubes and salt if
necessary. Add through ice/salt inlet
opening. Add slowly. DO NOT exceed
2.5cm below rim of ice canister. Unit
may jump and clunk if you add too
much salt.
CAUTION: DO NOT fill the ice canister
higher than 2.5cm from the top as there
is a risk that the slushie mixture will
become contaminated with salt.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT use the slushie
maker to freeze liquids without any
sugar (such as water) as this may
damage the appliance. Water will freeze
very quickly to the exterior of the ice
canister and could damage the unit.
DISPENSING SLUSHIES
1.
When peaks form, slushie mixture
has reached the best consistency. To
serve the slushie mixture, flip the
Mix/Off/Dispense switch to the lowest
position
“Dispense.”
2.
Turn the spigot handle clockwise to
pour position. Slushie mixture will
begin to pour out into glass.
3.
Turn spigot counterclockwise to close
off.
4.
To continue mixing, flip switch to
“Mix” position.
5.
Switch to “Off” position when you
have finished using the Slushie
Maker.
If the lid should pop off while the
machine is mixing, turn the switch to
OFF. Use a wooden spatula to scrape
off any ice that may have formed on the
outside of the aluminium ice cylinder.
Carefully replace the lid. If ice is
allowed to build up it may damage the
motor or gear box. Low sugar levels in
your beverage can cause this. You can
now switch back to “Mix” and continue
mixing.
