CAUTION :

Never use the removable bowl in a microwave, oven or any other heating appliance.

The removable bowl is fragile, take care not to scratch it while cleaning.

Do not put very hot liquid inside the bowl and never put it under very hot water when it is very cold.

• Never operate the appliance without the cover in order to prevent any loss of refrigeration.

Using the timer

The electronic timer allows you to programme the preparation time.
Important: When the timer goes off the mixing process stops but the refrigeration process continues. Once the ice cream is ready, the appliance must be put in the "off" position to turn off the appliance. (the indicator lamp goes off)
To set the timer, press the "time setting" button several times until the desired time display
Press the "start time" button to start the timer.
When the time stops flashing, this shows that the preparation has begun.
If you wish to modify the time, press the "stop time" button and repeat the above operation.

The end of the preparation time will be indicated by an audible signal 30 seconds before the end of preparation.
CAUTION: The signal indicates that the programmed time has elapsed but does not indicate that the ice cream is ready. If, however, after the end of the time set the ice cream is not of proper consistency, press the "start time" button to restart the process for 5 minutes.

Starting

Before use, prepare your ice cream mixture (see recipes). If you are using a hot preparation, let it cool in the refrigerator until the mixture is at the refrigerator's temperature (about 10^ ).

Place the appliance on a flat surface and make sure that the ventilation grilles are not obstructed.
Connect the assembled appliance to the mains
Press the cooling On button (located on the motor unit); the indicator light comes on to indicate that the process has begun.
Wait for 5 minutes then start the blender function by pressing the button located on the blender motor.
Pour out the preparation from the opening of the transparent cover. IMPORTANT: Never put hot food in the bowl.
IMPORTANT: never fill the bowl more than half because the volume increases as the ice cream is made.

During preparation, you may add chocolate chips, raisins or any other ingredients from the opening in the cover. Alcohol must be added to the ice cream a few minutes before the end of cycle as there is a risk of delaying the preparation time to a large extent.
The preparation time may range from 20 to 40 minutes depending on the recipe selected (approximately 20 to 30 minutes for sorbet and 40 minutes for ice cream). This time gives creamy ice cream. For harder ice cream, add about 10 minutes.
Towards the end of the preparation time, you may verify the consistency of the ice cream through the transparent cover.
IMPORTANT: Avoid turning off the cooling process during the preparation as the appliance then goes off automatically for 5 minutes and can thus hamper the ice cream making process.
- When the ice cream attains good consistency, the rotation of the blender is reversed. This indicates that the preparation is ready. This reversal does not damage the motor but it is however recommended to stop the rotation of the blender.
If you require harder ice cream, let the cooling process operate for an additional 5 to 10 minutes.
Once the ice cream is ready, turn off the appliance and unplug it.
Keep the blender motor unlocking button pressed and rotate the motor anticlockwise to remove it from the appliance.

CAUTION: stop the cooling process when the ice cream is ready otherwise it will freeze in the bowl.

Remove the blender to take the ice cream out more easily from the bowl.
Remove the ice cream from the bowl using plastic or wooden accessories so that the bowl does not get damaged.

Preserving the ice cream

Immediate consumption:

You may leave the ice cream for 10 to 20 minutes in the turned off appliance. Before serving, restart the appliance for a few minutes until the desired consistency and temperature are attained once again.

Storing in the freezer:

You can preserve the ice cream in the freezer but it is recommended to do this for a short period as after 2 weeks the freshness and taste will deteriorate.
Put the ice cream in a container (plastic, aluminium) closed properly and place it in the freezer.
Take the ice cream out of the freezer 10 to 15 minutes before serving.

Recommended preservation time:

Ice cream made from fresh products: 1 week in the freezer

Sorbet: 1 to 2 weeks

Ice creams based on semi-cooked product: 2 weeks

CAUTION: Never refreeze ice cream that has already thawed or thawed partially.

Maintenance

Before cleaning your product, make sure that it is properly unplugged.
Always wait till the fixed bowl and removable bowl have returned to ambient temperature before cleaning them in order not to damage them.
Dismantle the removable elements such as the cover, blender, and bowl. These elements can be washed with hot water and dishwashing liquid.
The fixed bowl can be cleaned with a wrung sponge or a damp cloth. Dry well after cleaning.

CAUTION:

Never put any element in the dishwasher.

Never immerse the complete product or the blender motor in water.

Preparation advice

When preparing a recipe requiring food to be cooked, prepare the mixture the previous day then put it in the refrigerator so that it attains the proper temperature (approximately 10^ C ) and its final volume (the final mixture must never fill more than half the bowl as the ice cream volume increases during the process).
Preparations containing a high proportion of sugar, butterfat or alcohol require more time to solidify (depending on the proportion, they may never even become firm).
If you wish to add sugar in course of the preparation, never add it directly from the opening as
it will not dissolve. It must be dissolved in water or milk beforehand.
