Other Consumer Safety Information

This appliance is intended for household use only.
WARNING! Shock Hazard: This appliance has a polarized plug (one

wide blade) that reduces the risk of electric shock. The plug fits only
one way into a polarized outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of
the plug by modifying the plug in any way or by using an adapter.
If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still
does not fit, have an electrician replace the outlet.

2

The length of the cord used on this appliance was selected to reduce
the hazards of becoming tangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
If a longer cord is necessary, an approved extension cord may be
used. The electrical rating of the extension cord must be equal to
or greater than the rating of the appliance. Care must be taken to
arrange the extension cord so that it will not drape over the counter­top or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or accidentally
tripped over.

Tips for Best Results

• During the freezing process, you can add finely chopped
or pureed ingredients such as chocolate, raisins, nuts, etc.,
through the opening in the lid. Alcohol should not be added
until near the end of the process since it significantly slows
down the freezing process.

• The machine will run for 20 to 40 minutes. Do not turn ice
cream maker off during this time. The mixture may freeze
to the walls and prevent the mixing paddle from turning.
See Troubleshooting if your unit did not make ice cream in
60 minutes.

• If mixing paddle becomes blocked, it will reverse and contin­ue to turn in the opposite direction. When motor repeatedly
stalls and reverses, the mixture has reached maximum
freezing.

• Add mix-ins, such as chocolate chips or chopped nuts,
after ice cream has churned for at least 15 minutes or
when mixture is thick and has started to freeze.

• The finished result is a soft, spoonable ice cream.
Homemade ice cream will not be the same consistency
as hard, store-bought ice cream.

• Ice cream tastes best when fresh. It will begin to lose its
fresh taste after 1 to 2 weeks in the freezer.

• Keep the freezer bowl in the freezer so that you can make
ice cream, chill wine, or serve ice cubes at any time.

• For best results, the freezer bowl must be frozen thoroughly.
Make sure to set your freezer at the coldest setting
(temperature should not be more than 0ºF [-18ºC]).

• Firmness of ice cream depends on variables such as the rec­ipe used, room temperature, and temperature of ingredients
before churning.

• Some recipes require the mixture to be precooked. Make
the recipe at least one day ahead. This will allow the mixture
to cool completely and increase volume. Base mixture may
not freeze if it is not thoroughly chilled.

• Do not remove freezer bowl from the freezer until ready
to use.

• Do not puncture or heat the freezer bowl.

• To allow mixture to expand to 1-1/2 quarts (6 cups/1.5 L)
while churning, do not use more than 1 quart (4 cups/1 L)
of recipe mixture at a time.

Troubleshooting

PROBLEM

Ice cream is not firm enough or
ice cream maker is still running
after 60 minutes.

Ice cream maker stops
churning before ice cream is
ready.

PROBABLE CAUSE/SOLUTION

• The freezer bowl was not in the freezer long enough (preferably overnight).

• The freezer is not cold enough. Ice cream sets at 10º to 14ºF (-12º to -10ºC). If the freezer
is not at 0ºF (-18ºC), the ice cream will not set.

• Too much mixture was put in freezer bowl. Maximum fill is 1 quart.

• Ingredients are warm or at room temperature.

• The freezer bowl was left at room temperature for more than 5 minutes before use.

• The freezer door was opened and closed too many times during the freezing process.

• The freezer bowl has a thick coating of ice on the walls. After washing, dry completely
prior to placing back in freezer.

• Mix-in ingredients, such as chocolate chips or chopped nuts, added too soon. Wait until ice
cream has churned for at least 15 minutes or until mixture is thick and has started to freeze
before adding.

• The mix-in ingredients are too large causing the paddle to jam. Chop nuts or other ingredients
before adding.

• Too large a quantity of mix-in ingredients have been added. Add one cup or less of mix-in
ingredients.
