Installation and Operation
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
BEFORE USING YOUR APPLIANCE
Remove the exterior and interior packing.
Before connecting the appliance to the power source, let it stand upright for approximately 2 hours. This will
reduce the possibility of a malfunction in the cooling system from handling during transportation.
Clean the interior surface with lukewarm water using a soft cloth.
Wash all parts that will come into contact with the ice cream (including the removable stainless steel mixing
bowl, churn blade, transparent lid, refill lid, and scoop).
Note: Please note that the parts are not dishwasher safe.
INSTALLATION OF YOUR APPLIANCE
WARNING
: Do not store or install the appliance outdoors.
CAUTION
:
This appliance is designed for making ice cream desserts.
Place your appliance on a hard and level surface that is strong enough to support it when ingredients are
added.
Allowance of at least 5 inches (127mm) of space around the appliance is suggested, which allows the proper
air circulation to cool the compressor and condenser.
Do not install the appliance near an oven or other heating source.
Plug in the appliance into an exclusive, grounded wall power outlet. Do not under any circumstances cut or
remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord. Any questions concerning power and/or grounding
should be directed toward a qualified electrician or an authorized service center.
FREESTANDING INSTALLATION
A freestanding installation will allow you to install the ice cream maker in any place you desire provided that the
required clearance space around the appliance is respected. In every setting, there must be an adequate ventila-
tion and access for service. Never install or operate the unit in an enclosed area. Allowance of at least 5 inches
(127mm) of space around the appliance is suggested, which allows the proper air circulation to cool the compres-
sor and condenser.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
WARNING: Improper use of the grounded plug can result in the risk of electrical shock. If the power cord
is damaged, have it replaced by a qualified electrician or contact Whynter Service Department.
This appliance requires a standard 115/120 Volt AC ~/60Hz electrical ground outlet with three-prong. Have the
wall outlet and circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make sure the outlet is properly grounded. The cord
should be secured behind the appliance and not left exposed or dangling to prevent accidental injury. The appli-
ance should always be plugged into its own individual electrical outlet which has a voltage rating that matches the
rating label on the appliance. This provides the best performance and also prevent overloading house wiring cir-
cuits that could cause a fire hazard from overheated. Never unplug the appliance by pulling the power cord. Al-
ways grip the plug firmly and pull straight out from the receptacle. Repair or replace immediately all power cords
that have become frayed or otherwise damaged. Do not use a cord that shows cracks or abrasion damage along
its length or at either end. When moving the appliance, be careful not to damage the power cord.
EXTENSION CORD
Because of potential safety hazards, it is strongly recommended that you do not use an extension cord with this
appliance. However, if you must use an extension cord, it is absolutely necessary that it be a UL/CUL-Listed, 3-
wire grounding type appliance extension cord having a grounding type plug and outlet and that the electrical rat-
ing of the cord be 115 volts and at least 10 amperes.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or injury when using your
appliance, follow these basic precautions:
Read all instructions before using the appliance.
DANGER or WARNING:
An empty ice cream maker can be a hazardous for children or small pets. If
disposing of the ice cream maker, remove the stainless steel mixing bowl, churn blade, or transparent lid
from your unused appliance, or take other action to ensure the ice cream maker is harmless.
Never allow children to operate or play with the appliance.
Never clean appliance parts with flammable fluids or harsh chemicals. The fumes can create a fire hazard or
explosion.
Do not store or use gasoline or any other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other ap-
pliance. The fumes can create a fire hazard or explosion.
