USING THE APPLIANCE
1. Make sure there is proper ventilation of 6” on all sides

and insert the paddle into the shaft of the motor.
3. Connect the AC adaptor to the body of the Ice Cream
Maker first then plug into a wall outlet.
4. Prepare desired ice cream mixture. Note: Chilling
ingredients before putting them into the bowl will
reduce the time required to make the ice cream.
Chilling ingredients before putting them in the bowl will
also make the ice cream of a harder consistency.
CAUTION: Never exceed the MAX fill lie marking on the
Inner Bowl when using ingredients that expand.
5. Pour ice cream mixture into the inner bowl. Add hard
ingredients 30-40 minutes after the unit has been
working to avoid jamming the spatula or ingredients
settling on the bottom.

6. Place the cover onto the Ice Cream Maker, turn the lid
clock wise to lock the cover and motor in place. Ensure
the metal pins underneath the mixing motor make
contact with the magnetic switches on the main body
of the Ice Cream Maker. Note: The motor will not
function if the magnetic switches are not engaged. The
motor will also switch off automatically if it is separated
from the magnetic switches.
7. Depending on desired consistency, press either HARD
(thicker consistency) or SOFT (thinner consistency)
button to begin operation. The motor will begin turning
and the until will begin freezing.
8. The unit will take 45-120 minutes to make the ice
cream, dependent upon quantity/type of ingredients
and the ambient temperature.
9. The ice cream maker will beep once the ice cream is
ready and the paddle is no longer able to turn. Press
the STOP button for the beeping to stop. The STOP
button can also be used to cancel operations at any
time.
10. Once finished, unplug the unit from the wall and main
body. Remove the motor and cover by turning it
counter clockwise, set aside. The paddle should be
inside the ice cream bowl. Remove the paddle using
the spatula and scrape off any ice cream stuck to the
paddle.
11. Use the scoop to spoon out ice cream from the inner
bowl into a freezer safe container or serve. Note: Do
not use metal utensils to scoop your ice cream in the
inner bowl as this may damage the surface of the
bowl.
