Before you Begin: Preparing the Ice Cream Maker
for Use

IMPORTANT: Do not remove any
safety, warning, or product
information labels from your ice
cream maker.

Unpacking the Ice Cream Maker

Carefully remove the packaging materials. Remove any shipping tape and
glue from your ice cream maker before using. Do not use sharp instruments,
rubbing alcohol, flammable fluids, or abrasive cleaners to remove tape or
glue. These products can damage the surface of your ice cream maker.
Check to make sure the bowl, mixing blade, spoon and measuring cup are
included. If any parts are missing, please contact our customer service.
Put the ice cream maker on a level and flat surface away from direct sunlight
and other sources of heat such as a stove, furnace, radiator, etc. The
appliance must be positioned so that the power plug is accessible.

Cleaning the Ice Cream Maker

Follow the Cleaning and Maintenance section to clean the ice cream maker.

Installation Requirements

The ice cream maker has been designed for free-standing installation which
will allow you to install the unit in almost any place you desire provided you
level the unit and follow the instructions for clearance and electrical
requirements.

Clearance and Environment Requirements

• Choose a well ventilated indoor area .

• This unit MUST be placed in an area protected from the elements, e.g., wind,
rain, water spray or drips. The ice cream maker should not be located next to
ovens, grills or other high heat sources .

• The unit should be located on a firm and level surface

WARNING! Do not, under any
circumstances, cut or remove
the third (ground) prong from the
power cord.

Electrical Requirements

Read all safety precautions listed at the beginning of this manual. It is
recommended that a separate circuit serving only your ice cream maker be
provided. Use receptacles that cannot be turned off by a switch or pull chain.

The ice cream maker is equipped with a power supply cord having a 3-prong
grounding plug. To minimize possible shock hazard, the cord must be plugged
into a mating 3-pronged and grounding-type wall receptacle

providing 110­120V, 60Hz, grounded in accordance with the National Electrical Code
and local codes and ordinances. If a mating wall receptacle is not
available, it is the personal responsibility of the customer to have a
properly grounded, 3-prong wall receptacle installed by a certified
electrician.

• Important: Always place the Ice Cream Maker upright on a flat surface

in order that the built-in compressor can provide best performance.
