PARTS & ASSEMBLY

Your FROZEN BEVERAGE STATION requires very little assembly:

The FROZEN BEVERAGE STATION has a sharp stainless steel blade that can cut and

cause injury. Use EXTREME CAUTION when handling the appliance. Keep fingers clear from blade and avoid contact at all times when using and cleaning.

Before first use, thoroughly wash the Ice Shaving Chamber, Lid, Pitcher and Mixing Paddle in warm, soapy water with a non-abrasive sponge or cloth. Dry thoroughly. DO NOT put Motor Housing or Base in water.

Wipe clean the exterior Motor Housing, Base and inside of the unit with a nonabrasive moist sponge or a damp cloth followed by a non-abrasive dry towel.

After cleaning the inside, put the Ice Shaving Chamber into the Motor Housing so it is seated on the shaft. Twist the shaft in the direction of the arrow to lock into position.

Insert the Mixing Paddle into the slot in the center of the Pitcher.

Now you are ready to enjoy cool, refreshing frozen beverages from your FROZEN BEVERAGE STATION!

HOW TO OPERATE

 

 

ENGLISH

1.

Place the unit on a stable, water-resistant surface near an electrical outlet before

 

 

starting. Make sure the cord is away from any water source. It is acceptable to

 

 

use an extension cord if needed. DO NOT plug in the unit at this time.

 

2.

Place the Ice Shaving Chamber into the Motor Housing so it is seated on the

 

 

shaft. Twist the shaft in the direction of the arrow to lock into position. Make

 

 

sure that the Ice Shaving Chamber is free from any foreign objects.

 

3.

Insert the Mixing Paddle into the slot in the center of the Pitcher.

 

4.

Fill the Pitcher with your favorite beverage, liquor, juice or drink mix.

 

 

NOTE: Use the Liquid lines indicated on the side of the pitcher as a guide for

 

 

how much liquid to add. You may choose to make a Small or Large serving.

 

5.

Slide Pitcher into place on Base and turn clockwise until it stops. This will allow

 

 

the Mixing Paddle to mix ice and ingredients once the operation begins.

 

6.

Turn the Selector Knob to the desired setting. "SLUSH" produces a

 

 

finely shaved ice; "SNOW" produces a coarser textured ice.

 

7.

Place ice in Ice Shaving Chamber. Add enough ice cubes to reach, but not pass, the top of

 

 

Ice Shaving Chamber.

 

BE CAREFUL when placing ice cubes in Ice Shaving Chamber. The blade is very sharp.

8.Plug cord into outlet.

9.When you are ready to start making your frozen beverage, place the Lid on the unit and turn counter-clockwise to engage the interlock switch (power ON/OFF).

10.The unit will immediately start and begin shaving the ice.

NOTE: It may be necessary to remove the lid during shaving to redistribute ice.

11.Turn Lid clockwise to stop the FROZEN BEVERAGE STATION from shaving ice. Stop unit when shaved ice reaches desired "Shaved Ice" level indicated on the Pitcher. DO NOT shave ice above Max line.

12.To remove Pitcher, turn counter-clockwise, slide out and serve your frozen beverage.

By following these simple instructions, you can use your FROZEN BEVERAGE STATION to make delightful treats for friends and family!

HELPFUL TIPS

CORD LOCATION

The cord is located at the base of the unit. Turn base over and slide door open to remove cord.

ICE CUBES

Ice cubes should sit a short while before putting them in the shaving unit. If ice has a frosty appearance, it is too hard to shave. Let ice sit until it is translucent and wet to the touch. Then it is ready to put in the Ice Shaving Chamber.

SHAVING ICE

If ice is not shaving, try one of the following:

Turn unit off by removing the Lid. Redistribute ice in Ice Shaving Chamber. BE CAREFUL to avoid contact with shaving blade.

Make sure Lid is completely locked in the interlock switch. To start unit, place the Lid on the unit and turn counter-clockwise to lock in place.

MIXING PADDLE

If the Mixing Paddle is not turning, make sure the Pitcher has been turned clockwise on Base until it stops. The Mixing Paddle must be properly affixed to bottom of Pitcher and top of unit in order to mix ice and ingredients.

LEAKING

It may appear that your FROZEN BEVERAGE STATION is leaking when unshaven ice melts and drips onto the base. This is normal. Wipe base dry with a soft cloth. Be sure to use FROZEN BEVERAGE STATION on a water-resistant surface.

CLEANING & MAINTENANCE

1.After using your FROZEN BEVERAGE STATION, disconnect from electrical outlet. Remove plug by gripping the plug body and pulling out of

the outlet. Never yank or twist cord to unplug the unit.

2.Thoroughly wash the Lid, Ice Shaving Chamber, Mixing Paddle and Pitcher in warm, soapy water. Rinse and dry thoroughly. DO NOT place unit or any parts in dishwasher.

3.Use a damp, non-abrasive cloth to wipe exterior Motor Housing, Base and inside of the unit. Dry with non-abrasive towel. DO NOT put the Motor Housing or Base in water.
