Frequently Asked Questions - SIT12317 WestBend

How to use the WestBend SIT12317 shaved ice machine?

Prepare ice blocks by filling the provided cups with water, juice or syrup and freeze them. Place an ice block in the machine, position an empty cup under the device to collect the snow. Close the lid and turn the crank in the shaving direction until the ice is completely shaved. Add West Bend flavored syrup or your favorite drink, and enjoy!

Can I use ice cubes instead of an ice block?

Yes, it is possible to use ice cubes, but it will be more difficult to turn the handle. It is recommended to use an ice block for optimal results.

How to clean the ice machine?

After each use, shake the appliance to remove water or small ice pieces. If you used flavored ice, wash and dry the appliance thoroughly with warm soapy water. Do not wash it in the dishwasher.

Can I put the machine in the dishwasher?

No, the dishwasher is not recommended. Always hand wash with warm soapy water, then rinse and dry thoroughly.

What to do if the ice does not shave properly?

Make sure the ice block is well frozen and the lid is properly secured by turning clockwise until it stops. If using ice cubes, they may be harder to shave. Also, remove any remaining ice pieces before adding a new block.

How to prepare flavored ice blocks?

Fill the provided ice cups with water, fruit juice, soda, flavored yogurt or flavored milk, then freeze them. You can also use West Bend syrups for more flavor.

USING YOUR ICE SHAVER

1. Fill ice cups with water, juice, or flavored syrups and place in freezer. When frozen, remove ice blocks. Ice cubes may also be used but require more effort to turn the handle.
2. Place an ice block (or ice cubes) in the machine. Position the empty ice cup or a small bowl underneath to catch the shaved ice.
3. Put the lid with wheel assembly on the machine, press down and twist lid clockwise until tight. Grasp the wheel and turn clockwise to shave ice.
4. When ice block is completely shaved, empty out any remaining ice pieces and add a new ice block to make more shaved ice. Note: Make extra ice blocks and store them in the freezer for future use
5. Place shaved ice in a paper cone or glass, then add your favorite West Bend ^® premium syrup or beverage to create your own frosty treat.

CLEANING YOUR ICE SHAVER

After each use, shake out any water or ice particles remaining in the machine. It is not necessary to wash the machine after using ice made only from water. However, after using flavored ice blocks, wash and dry thoroughly. Do not wash in dishwasher.

COOL & EASY TREATS

Super Snow Cones: Dispense your favorite West Bend ^® premium flavored syrup directly on top of the shaved ice. Combine different syrups to create your own unique flavors. Because the shaved ice is so fine, it absorbs the flavored syrup instead of letting it run to the bottom. This gives you a truly intense flavor sensation, all the way through! Tip: Use flavored ice cubes for unique snow cone tastes. Freeze fruit juice, soda, flavored yogurt, or flavored milk into cubes. If desired, use West Bend ^® premium syrups for added flavor.
