INSTRUCTIONS

THE FOLLOWING INSTRUCTIONS APPLY WHETHER
USING THE CYLINDERS TOGETHER OR SEPARATELY.

ASSEMBLY AND DISSASSEMBLY

To take the appliance apart, remove the lid, then remove
the dasher from the pin in the centre of the cylinder.
Then remove the cylinder.
To reassemble the appliance, insert the cylinder and press
downwards on the edge with the hands (fig. 1). Insert the
dasher then fit the lid.

OPERATION

Assemble the appliance as described in the chapter
"ASSEMBLY AND DISSASSEMBLY".
You are recommended (fig. 3) to moisten the alu­minium bottom of the appliance evenly with cotton
wool dipped in alcohol for food use taking care not
to pour it onto the central plastic area (fig. 3).
Remember that alcohol is inflammable. You should
therefore perform this operation away from flames
or hot stoves. This prevents the formation of ice bet­ween the cylinder and aluminium bottom of the
appliance, making it easier to extract the cylinder

when preparation is complete.
Place the ingredients required by the recipe in the
cylinder and fit the lid by turning anticlockwise.
Bear in mind that the cylinder holds a maximum of
600 g.
Plug into a suitable mains socket.
Make sure there are no obstacles preventing air from
circulating freely through the grilles at the sides.
The pair of wheels H make it easy to move the
appliance on the work surface.
Once you have added all the ingredients to the cylin­der, turn the appliance on by placing the selector in
the position.
Important: never use the appliance without the cylin­der. Make sure the outside surface of the cylinder is
completely dry before inserting it in the appliance.
Process the ingredients by turning the selector to the
required position.

DESCRIPTION OF SELECTOR

The selector has 4 different positions:

Dasher rotation (compressor off)

Use this function to mix the ingredients during
the first phase of ice-cream preparation.
Important: you cannot add ingredients to the
cylinder while the dasher is in movement.

Appliance off.

Chilling (compressor operating)

Use this function to add or taste ingredients
during preparation or to stop the dasher to
check the texture of the ice-cream.
If the recipe requires ingredients to be added
(pieces of chocolate, raisins, meringues...),
turn the selector to the position for a maxi­mum of 1 minute.
Important: you must never leave the appliance
in this position for more than 1 minute.
Leaving it in this position for longer could
seriously damage the dasher rotation mecha­nism.

Combined dasher rotation and chilling (com­pressor operating)

Use this function to make the ice-cream
through the combined action of the compressor
and the dasher. When the ice-cream reaches
the required texture, place the selector in the

position to turn the appliance off.

Important: always remove the cylinder from
the base when the ice-cream is ready, particu­larly if you are using the 2 cylinders together
and one finishes first. Do not wait for the
second cylinder to complete the cycle.
Each ice-cream making cycle usually lasts a
maximum of about 50 minutes with the 2 cylin­ders operating simultaneously and about 30
