Care Instructions
To ensure your Ice Shaver works properly at all times, please follow the care
and handling instructions below:
1. Before using your Ice Shaver wash all ice molds in warm, soapy water
and wipe down the base with a damp cloth. This removes any residue
left over from manufacturing and packaging.
2.
Use caution near the shaving blade, as it is very sharp and could
cause serious injury
.
3. Follow the steps above after each subsequent use, and before storage.
4. Never place any part of the Ice Shaver in the dishwasher.
Use Instructions
Follow steps 1-10 when using ice molds. Follow steps 4-10 when using ice
cubes.
1. Fill the ice mold with water until it is 1/4” from the top.
2.
Place the mold on a flat shelf in your freezer, so the water freezes as
level as possible. This will help during the shaving process.
3. Once the water has frozen, turn the ice mold upside down on the top
of the Ice Shaver base (see diagram 1). If it doesn’t readily fall out, run
the outside of the mold under warm water until the ice block releases
from the plastic.
4.
When using ice cubes, do not overfill the ice chamber
. Leave at
least 1/2” space between the ice and the top of the chamber.
5. Place the motor unit gently on top of the Ice shaver base (see diagram
2). Center the motor and hold it in place firmly with one hand while
pressing down on the top switch with the other hand (see diagram 3).
6. It is normal for the motor to move slightly in your hands as the ice is
shaved. When using ice cubes it will move even more. In either case,
keep the motor centered on the base while in use.
7. As you press down, the ice will continue to be shaved, until you release
the switch, or the motor unit reaches the bottom.
8. There will be a thin disk of ice remaining (when using the ice molds) in
the bottom of the ice chamber when the motor is done shaving. This
is intentional in order to protect the motor from the shaving blade. If
ice cubes are used, there will be small pieces of ice left in the bottom
instead.
