Using your Baumatic ice cream maker
Before switching on
oMake sure that it has been installed by a suitably qualified
person, as per the information contained in Baumatic’s
installation instructions.
oAfter delivery, wait for a couple of hours before connecting the
appliance to your mains supply. This will allow any oil from the
compressor that may have been disturbed during the
transportation process to settle.
oThe outside of the appliance and the removable accessories
contained within it, should be cleaned with a solution of liquid
detergent and water.
oThe interior of the appliance should be cleaned
with a solution of sodium bicarbonate dissolved in
lukewarm water. The interior and accessories
should be thoroughly dried, after the cleaning
process has been completed.
oThere can be an odour when you first switch on the appliance. It
will lessen when the appliance is used.
Prior to making ice cream
oYour appliance MUST be placed on a flat surface, to ensure that
the built in compressor operates properly.
oThe appliance MUST have 20 cm of space each side of it and the
ventilation slot should not be obstructed.
oIMPORTANT: The appliance MUST NOT be connected to your
mains supply until all of the steps below have been followed.
oThoroughly wash all parts of the appliance that will come into
contact with ingredients and ice cream (including the fixed bowl,
removable bowl, mixing arm and transparent cover).
oPrepare the required recipe ingredients, by following your own
recipe or from one contained in this user manual.
oPlace the prepared ingredients into the removable bowl.
IMPORTANT: There is no need to freeze the ingredients prior to
placing them inside the ice cream maker. The appliance has a
built in compressor which will do this.

oIMPORTANT: DO NOT fill the removable bowl more than 80%
full, as the contents will expand during the cooling process and
there is the chance of the bowl overflowing.
oPlace the removable bowl inside of the fixed bowl and then place
the mixing arm inside of the removable bowl. The mixing arm
should just rest inside the centre of the bowl, with the circle side
facing upwards.
oInsert the mixing arm into the socket that is found in the base of
the motor section. IMPORTANT: You must ensure that the
mixing arm is securely fixed into the socket.
oPlace the transparent cover on the top of the appliance, making
sure that it is firmly fixed in position. Finally make sure that the
small lid is securely in place on the transparent cover.
Making ice cream
oConnect your appliance to your mains supply, making sure that
the electrical connection information contained in this booklet
has been read and followed.
oPress the ON/OFF button and then set the required time by
turning the timer dial.
oA 40 minute time setting will give soft textured ice cream, the
default operating time of 50 minutes will give medium textured
ice cream and a 60 minute time setting will give hard textured
ice cream.
oThe LCD display will show the temperature progressively
decreasing as the appliance begins to function. It will indicate
that it has entered its cooling phase by showing the temperature
it’s reached.
oWhen the countdown period ends, the cooling process will end
automatically and an audible signal will sound.
oSwitch the appliance off using the ON/OFF button and unplug the
appliance from your mains supply.

Removal and storage of ice cream
10
IMPORTANT: Before attempting to remove the
ice cream, YOU MUST disconnect the appliance
from your mains supply.
oTake out the removable bowl from the fixed bowl.
oThe removable bowl should not be used for long term storage of
ice cream in a freezer. The maximum time period that the
removable bowl should be placed in a freezer for is 30 minutes.
If the removable bowl is placed in a freezer for longer than this,
it may be damaged.
oIf you wish to store the ice cream for longer than 30 minutes,
then you should use a plastic scoop or wooden spoon to remove
the ice cream. IMPORTANT: DO NOT use a metal scoop or
spoon to remove the ice cream; otherwise the removable bowl
will get scratched.
oOnce removed, you should place the ice cream in a plastic,
airtight container. We do not recommend that ice cream made
in this appliance is stored for a prolonged period. After 1 – 2
weeks, the structure of the ice cream will deteriorate and the
fresh taste will be lost.
oYou should ensure that the freezer is maintaining a temperature
of at least -18°.
oYou should mark the date that you prepared the ice cream on
the lid of the container.
oIf you partially or fully defrost the ice cream, then DO NOT
refreeze it.
oThoroughly wash all parts of the appliance that came into
contact with the ingredients and ice cream (including the fixed
bowl, removable bowl, mixing arm and transparent cover).
