Instructions for Use
A Preparing the Freezer Bowl
ßThe freezer bowl must be completely frozen before you begin. Before freezing, wash and dry the bowl.
Wrap it in a plastic bag to prevent freezer burn. The length of time required to freeze in the freezer,
depends on the temperature of your freezer.
ßIn general, freezing time should be a minimum of 12 hours, with a freezer temperature of -17°C or cooler.
To determine whether the bowl is completely frozen, shake it. If you do not hear liquid moving, the cooling
liquid is frozen.
ßWe recommend that you place the freezer bowl in the back of your freezer where it is coldest. Place the
freezer bowl on a flat surface in its upright position for even freezing. For convenience, leave your freezer
bowl in the freezer at all times.You can take it out any time for immediate use.
B Assembling the Ice Cream Maker
ßRemove the freezer bowl from the freezer and remove the plastic bag. Place the
freezer bowl into the centre of the base.
N.B. The bowl will begin to defrost rapidly after being removed from the freezer,
therefore use immediately. Have your recipe prepared before assembling the ice cream
maker.
ßPlace the mixing arm in the freezer bowl. N.B. The arm does not fit tightly, it just rests
in the centre of the bowl, with the circle facing up.
ßPlace lid onto the base, and twist to lock into place.The easy lock lid mechanism allows
the lid to rest on the base in multiple positions.

C Making Frozen Desserts or Drinks
ßFor best results, prepare the ingredients in a container from which it is easy to pour.
ßLift the switch to the ON position, the freezer bowl will begin to turn.
ßImmediately pour ingredients through the lid. Do not ll the freezer bowl higher than 2cm from the top,
as the ingredients will increase in volume during the freezing process.
ßFrozen desserts or drinks will be ready in 20-30 minutes. The time will depend on the recipe and volume
of the dessert or drink you are making. If you desire a rmer consistency, transfer the dessert or the
drink to an airtight container and store in the freezer for 2 or more hours.
N.B. If the Ice cream is stuck on top of the mixing arm, stop the machine briey and use a spatula to
scoop the ice cream off the arm back into the freezer bowl
N.B. Do not store the frozen desserts or drinks in the freezer bowl. Desserts and drinks will stick to
the side of the freezer bowl and may damage the bowl, always transfer to a plastic airtight container.
D Dismantling the Ice Cream Maker
ßRemove the lid from the housing by twisting slightly out of its locked position and lifting up.
ßCarefully lift out the mixing arm, followed by the freezer bowl. Serve the ice cream, or, for a rmer
texture, scoop into an airtight container and place in the freezer.

10
E Hints & Tips
ßYour recipe should be no more than 1.5 litres of liquid, as it will expand in volume.
ßProcessing time depends on the recipe, the amount of dessert being made and the temperature of the
ingredients being used. All recipes take between 15 and 30 minutes.
ßSome recipes use pre-cooked ingredients. For best results, the mixture should be chilled overnight before using.
ßPrior to freezing, most mixed recipes may be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days (depending on the
use by date of the ingredients being used)
ßYour Ice Cream Deluxe makes ice cream using fresh natural ingredients, i.e. without the preservatives etc as
found in commercial ice creams. Therefore it will not have the same hard consistency, for a firmer consistency,
transfer the dessert to an airtight container and store it in the freezer for at least 2 hours before serving.
ßYou may substitute lower fat creams and milk for double cream and whole milk used in many recipes.
However, the higher the fat content the richer and creamier the result. Using lower fat substitutes may
change the taste, consistency and texture of the dessert. When substituting ingredients, ensure you use the
same quantity of the substitute as the original ingredient required.
ßYou may also substitute artificial sweeteners for sugar. If the recipe is to be pre-cooked, add the sweetener
after the heating process is complete (the ingredients have been cooked). Stir the mixture thoroughly to
dissolve the sweetener.
ßWhen making sorbet, test the ripeness and sweetness of the fruit before you begin.The freezing process
reduces the sweetness of the fruit so that it will not taste as sweet as the recipe mixture. If the fruit tastes
tart, add sugar to the recipe. If the fruit is very ripe or sweet, reduce the amount of sugar in the recipe.
ßDo not fill the mixing bowl higher than 2cm away from the top. Take this into consideration if you wish to
add extra ingredients through the lid.
ßWell chilled ingredients require shorter mixing times.
ßMixing times suggestions can vary due to ingredients and type of recipe.
ßIngredients such as chocolate chips and nuts should be added about 5 minutes before the recipe is complete.
ßOnce the dessert or drink has begun to thicken, add the ingredients through the lid.
ßNuts and other ingredients should be no larger than a chocolate chip.

11
Cleaning &Maintenance
ßAlways unplug the appliance before cleaning.
ßTo clean the base, wipe with a damp cloth and dry. Never use abrasive cleaners or immerse in water.
ßTo clean the freezer bowl, lid and mixing arm, wash by hand in warm soapy water and dry thoroughly before
storing. Do not put in the dishwasher. Never use abrasive cleaners or utensils such as scouring pads as this
will damage the bowl.
ßDo not put the freezer bowl in the freezer if it is wet.Do not store the lid, mixing arm or base in the freezer.
You may store the mixing bowl in the freezer, in its upright position for convenient, immediate use. Before
freezing, wrap the bowl in a plastic bag to prevent freezer burn.
ßDo not store frozen desserts in the freezer bowl. Transfer desserts to an airtight container for longer
storage in the freezer.
N.B. The ice cream will lose its soft consistency and harden after it is stored in the freezer.
