INSTRUCTIONS
ASSEMBLY AND DISSASSEMBLY
To take the appliance apart, remove the lid, then remove the das-
her from the pin in the centre of the cylinder. Then remove the
cylinder. To reassemble the appliance, insert the cylinder and
press downwards on the edge with the hands (fig. 1). Insert the
dasher then fit the lid.
OPERATION
Assemble the appliance as described in the chapter "ASSEMBLY
AND DISSASSEMBLY".
You are recommended (fig. 3) to moisten
the aluminium bottom of the appliance evenly with cotton
wool dipped in alcohol for food use taking care not to pour it
onto the central plastic area (fig. 3). Remember that alcohol is
inflammable. You should therefore perform this operation
away from flames or hot stoves. This prevents the formation of
ice between the cylinder and aluminium bottom of the
appliance, making it easier to extract the cylinder when pre-
paration is complete.
Place the ingredients required by the recipe in the cylinder and fit
the lid by turning anticlockwise.
Bear in mind that the cylinder holds a maximum of 600 g. Plug
into a suitable mains socket. Make sure there are no obstacles pre-
venting air from circulating freely through the grilles at the sides.
Once you have added all the ingredients to the cylinder, turn the
appliance on by placing the selector in the position.
Important: never use the appliance without the cylinder. Make
sure the outside surface of the cylinder is completely dry before
inserting it in the appliance.
Process the ingredients by turning the selector to the required
position.
DESCRIPTION OF SELECTOR
The selector has 4 different positions:
Dasher rotation (compressor off)
Use this function to mix the ingredients during the first
phase of ice-cream preparation.
Important: you cannot add ingredients to the cylinder
while the dasher is in movement.
Appliance off.
Chilling (compressor operating)
Use this function to add or taste ingredients during pre-
paration or to stop the dasher to check the texture of the
ice-cream.
If the recipe requires ingredients to be added (pieces of
chocolate, raisins, meringues...), turn the selector to the
position for a maximum of 1 minute.
Important: you must never leave the appliance in this
position for more than 1 minute.
Leaving it in this position for longer could seriously
damage the dasher rotation mechanism.
Combined dasher rotation and chilling (compres-
sor operating)
Use this function to make the ice-cream through the
combined action of the compressor and the dasher.
When the ice-cream reaches the required texture, place
the selector in the position to turn the appliance off.
Normally each ice-cream making cycle lasts about 40
minutes.
Continuous functioning beyond this time will result in
excessively hard ice-cream and serious damage to the
dasher rotation mechanism.
Important: if you need to work the ingredients with a whisk
(e.g., to froth the egg whites, beat the eggs and sugar, etc.),
you are recommended to prepare the ingredients in a separa-
te container and then pour them into the cylinder.
You can then select the function to start making the
ice-cream.

ONCE THE ICE-CREAM IS READY
When the ice-cream is ready, turn the appliance off by placing
the selector in the position.
Remove the lid, the dasher and the cylinder, then use the
scoop provided to transfer the ice-cream to another container.
Then follow the normal ice-cream preparation procedure,
inserting first the cylinder containing the ingredients, then the
dasher and finally the lid.
When the ice-cream is ready, turn the appliance off by placing
the selector in the position, remove the lid and cylinder and
dry the aluminium bottom with a cloth.
CLEANING AND TRANSPORT
Before cleaning, always turn the appliance off by placing
the selector in the position and unplug the appliance
from the mains socket.
Always wash the components of the appliance in direct contact
with the ingredients thoroughly whenever you use the appliance.
Dasher, cylinder and lid can also be washed in the top basket of a
dish washer.
You are recommended to use a short low temperature program-
me.
Dry the bottom of the cylinder thoroughly (fig. 2) before use to
avoid ice forming during ice-cream preparation, thus prolonging
the ice-cream preparation time.
The appliance must not be laid on its side or turned upside
down.
