USE
ASSEMBLING
- Make sure that the appliance is unplugged.
- Place the ice cream maker on a flat, stable surface.
- Place the removable bowl into the fixed bowl in the machine. Make sure that the handle holders fit into the provided recess of the black ring.
- Place the mixer into the removable bowl by sliding the mixer over the axis in the bowl, so that it falls into position. The image shows which parts of the mixer and the axis should be lined up.
- Warning: For the yoghurt programme, do not use the mixing paddle, which is only used for making ice cream and mixing.
- Fit the transparent lid onto the bowl and turn clockwise.
PREPARING THE INGREDIENTS
- Prepare the ingredients according to the recipe you want to make.
- Pour the mixture into the removable bowl.
Warning
- The total volume of ingredients must never exceed half of the bowl. The ice cream will expand when it is mixed.
- It is not needed to place the bowl into the freezer beforehand. Thanks to the built-in compressor the ice cream maker freezes while mixing.
USAGE
- Insert the plug into a power socket. You will hear a signal and the on-off button and 00:00 will appear on the display.
- Press the on-off button. The device is now switched on and the display appears.
- Select the desired programme:
- Use the ice cream feature to prepare (firm) ice cream, sorbet, soft ice cream, frozen yoghurt, and so on. The default time is set to 60 minutes. You can adjust this to between 5 and 70 minutes.
- The mixing feature helps blend the ingredients better (without cooling). The default time is set to 30 minutes. You can adjust this to between 5 and 70 minutes.
- The cooling feature simply keeps the contents of the bowl cold (without mixing). The default time is set to 10 minutes. You can adjust this to between 5 and 70 minutes.
- The yoghurt feature is a programme for making yoghurt from milk and an existing yoghurt culture. The default time is set to 8 hours. You can adjust this to between 4 and 24 hours.
- Set the desired time. With the ice cream programme, you can set the time or hardness (see below).
- With the ice cream programme and mixing, you can set the speed (see below).
- Press the start-pause button to start the ice-cream maker.
- When the set time is up, the appliance automatically stops, and you will hear a signal.
- Take the removable bowl out of the appliance, scoop the ice cream out of the bowl and place it in a different bowl or container.
Setting the time
After selecting a programme, you can set the desired time by using the increase or decrease buttons.
Setting the hardness
This feature can only be selected for the ice cream program. To set the
hardness, press the ice cream button (again). The bars representing hardness
appear on the display (instead of for the time).
Now press the increase or decrease button. There are three hardness settings
- Soft:
- Medium:
- Hard:
During operation, the appliance will measure the hardness and show it on the display. Once the desired hardness is reached, the appliance stops making ice cream and switches over to the automatic cooling feature. The maximum time is 70 minutes. If the desired hardness has been reached and you want to stop the process completely before the time runs out, press the start-pause button for a few seconds and the appliance will switch off.
Setting the mixing speed
In the ice cream and mix programs, you can control the mix speed to achieve a different taste experience each time. The more rotations per minute, the airier the mix, the fewer the ice crystals, and the more intense the flavour. Press the mixing speed button and the speed will change each time you press the button. There are three-speed settings:
- :slow
- : medium
- : fast
The default setting is medium speed.
Notes
- Do not use metal objects in the bowl to avoid scratching.
- Never knock the removable bowl or the edge of the bowl onto for instance a table to remove the ice cream. This will damage the bowl.
- The ice cream machine has overheating protection. Allow the machine to cool down between two preparations.
- To stop or restart the mixing paddle during the process, briefly press the start-pause button. The compressor continues cooling for 3 minutes. Thereafter, the unit will switch off completely.
- To stop the process completely before the time runs out, press the start-pause button for a few seconds and the appliance will switch off.
- If you want to adjust the time when the machine is in operation, first press the start-pause button. You can then adjust the time with the decrease and increase buttons. Thereafter, press the start-pause button again to resume operation.
- When the ice cream becomes too hard, the motor could get blocked. The self-protection function makes sure that the motor is automatically stopped in that case.
MAKING YOGHURT
When you add milk bacteria to milk, the bacteria start to multiply. This creates a thick creamy mixture, i.e. yoghurt. You can use different types of milk: pasteurised, sterilised, long-life UHT, but also plant-based ‘milk’ products, such as soya or nut milk. All of these can be used to make your yoghurt. Add an existing yoghurt culture to the milk, which you can find in, for example, natural yoghurt from the supermarket, or homemade yoghurt, or you can also buy the yoghurt bacteria in powder form from the health food shops, chemists, or online. A good ratio is 1 litre of milk with 125 ml of plain yoghurt for 8 hours.
EXTENDED COOLING FEATURE
If the appliance is not switched off an d the ice is not removed immediately after the end of the turning process, the machine automatically switches to the cooling feature. The display shows ‘cool’. The appliance will then cool for another 2 hours to maintain the consistency of the ice cream. During this cooling feature, the appliance will measure the hardness and occasionally mix and cool when necessary. Thereafter, it switches back to the base state.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
- Never immerse the appliance, power cord, or plug in water or any other liquid.
- Pull the plug out of the power socket before cleaning the appliance.
- Clean the stainless steel housing with a damp cloth and some mild detergent.
- Wash the separate parts in warm water with washing-up liquid, i.e. the transparent lid, mixing paddle, and removable bowl. Dry thoroughly.
