PARTS & ASSEMBLY
Parts
After Taking the Unit Out of the Box
Wipe down the RETRO SLUSH MACHINE exterior with a clean, non-abrasive cloth or sponge. Thoroughly wash the Blending Chamber, Aluminum Cylinder, Cylinder Cage, and Lid in warm, sudsy water and thoroughly dry. DO NOT put the Base in water.
Assembly
- After drying, firmly attach the Blending Chamber to the Base by placing the Blending Chamber on top of the Base. If the Blending Chamber is attached properly, it will be aligned with the Base so that the Spout is over the Drip Tray.
- Next, put the Mixing Mechanism inside of Aluminum Cylinder and put the Aluminum Cylinder inside of Cylinder Cage. Then place the Cylinder assembly inside of Blending Chamber.
HOW TO OPERATE
-
First, find a stable, waterproof surface near an electrical outlet before starting. Make sure the cord is away from any water source.
-
DO NOT place the RETRO SLUSH MACHINE near the edge of a table or countertop.
-
Remove the Blending Chamber Lid by pinching the lock tab together while lifting up on the Lid and carefully unhinging the front.
-
Fill the Aluminum Cylinder with small or broken pieces of ice through an opening labeled ICE AND SALT, to within 1 inch of the Aluminum Cylinder top. Ensure that the Spout is in the closed position to avoid spillage.
-
Add ½ cup of regular table salt and ½ cup of water in the Aluminum Cylinder (be sure to add salt first then water in order to mix well). Salt is necessary for the freezing process. It may take ½ cup of salt or more for your slush to freeze properly. Return the Lid to Blending Chamber, making sure it is aligned properly over the mixing mechanism, locked down securely to the clear mixing chamber, and lid is latched securely.
-
Slide the ON/OFF switch back to FREEZE to turn the unit on and begin the slush-making process. DO NOT turn the unit OFF during use as the Aluminum Cylinder may freeze.
-
Pour your selected beverage directly into the unit through the molded square indention located on the top of your RETRO SLUSH MACHINE. DO NOT fill beyond the MAX FILL line (approximately 1 qt. of liquid). Sugar-free beverages and alcoholic beverages will not freeze. DO NOT use them in the machine.
NOTE: Do not use the slush maker to freeze liquids without any sugar (such as water), as this may damage the appliance. Water will freeze very quickly to the exterior of the ice cylinder and could damage the unit . -
Allow the mixture to blend for up to 15 minutes until you reach the desired slush consistency.
NOTE: You can continually add ice and salt to the unit as you are creating slush by dropping ice and salt into the round, open hole in the Lid above the Aluminum Cylinder. DO NOT exceed filling the Aluminum Cylinder 1 inch from the top as there is a risk that the slush mixture will become contaminated with salt. -
When mixture reaches desired consistency, place cup under Spout and slide the ON/OFF switch forward to DISPENSE. Turn the slushdispenser handle to the right to dispense drink. Keep unit running until all slush has been dispensed. Be sure to turn handle back to CLOSE after filling each cup.
NOTE: If slush gets too thick, or does not dispense well, add more liquid to the mixing chamber opening.
HELPFUL TIPS
- If Spout is stiff during first use, apply more force to turn the knob.
- Add more liquid to Blending Chamber if vacuum occurs around Cylinder during use.
- Blending Chamber must be firmly attached to Base or unit will not turn on.
- A towel placed under your RETRO SLUSH MACHINE, will help with clean-up. You should expect some dripping.
- DO NOT store slush drinks in freezer or fridge. They should be consumed immediately.
- REMINDER: 32 ounces of liquid does not produce 32 ounces of slush. You are creating slush and the liquid has solidified into ice.
Liquids
- Drinks with a high sugar or corn syrup base will crystallize faster and produce a thicker slush than those with milk or lower sugar content. Carbonated drinks will set up slower and will not be as thick.
- We recommend adding pre-chilled liquid to your RETRO SLUSH MACHINE. This will quicken the slush making process.
- Carbonated diet drinks and alcoholic beverages will not slush. DO NOT add alcohol until the slush is poured into glasses.
- DO NOT use stiff mixtures such as whipped cream or frozen liquids.
Mixture is Not Freezing
- DO NOT operate the unit longer than required. If after 15 minutes the mixture has not yet achieved the slush consistency or has thawed again, do not continue. Possible reasons for mixture not chilling or freezing:
- The Aluminum Cylinder was not cold enough. Try adding more ice and salt. Salt is a critical part of the freezing process and you will need plenty of salt added to the ice for the slush to freeze properly.
- The mixture was too warm.
- Alcohol was added to the mixture. DO NOT add alcohol until the slush is poured into glasses.
CLEANING & MAINTENANCE
- After using your RETRO SLUSH MACHINE, disconnect from electrical outlet. Remove plug by gripping the plug body and pulling out ofthe outlet. Never yank or twist cord to unplug the unit.
- Thoroughly wash the Blending Chamber, Aluminum Cylinder, CylinderCage, Mixing Mechanism, Lid and Drip Tray in warm, sudsy water and thoroughly dry. DO NOT put the Base in water. When needed, use a damp, non-abrasive cloth to wipe exterior and then dry thoroughly.
- Once washing and drying is complete, reassemble your RETRO SLUSH MACHINE.
- NEVER immerse Base in water or put any parts in the dishwasher.
