Instructions for the Electrical Cord and Plug

1. This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electrical shock, this plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet only one way.
   If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plugin anyway.

   • Extension cords can be used if care is exercised in their use.
   • The marked electrical rating of the cord or extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance.
   • When using a longer cord or extension cord, make sure that the cord does not drape over a countertop or tabletop where
   it can be pulled on or tripped over unintentionally.

4. The manufacturer does not recommend using this machine in countries that do not support 120V AC even if a voltage adapter, transformer, or converter is in use.

PARTS & ASSEMBLY

Your FROZEN BEVERAGE STATION requires very little assembly:

• The FROZEN BEVERAGE STATION has a sharp stainless steel blade that can cut and cause injury. Use EXTREME CAUTION when handling the appliance. Keep fingers clear from the blade and avoid contact at all times when using and cleaning.
• Before first use, thoroughly wash the Ice Shaving Chamber, Lid, Pitcher, and Mixing Paddle in warm, soapy water with a non-abrasive sponge or cloth. Dry thoroughly. DO NOT put Motor Housing or Base in water.
• Wipe clean the exterior Motor Housing, Base, and inside of the unit with a nonabrasive moist sponge or a damp cloth followed by a non-abrasive dry towel.
• After cleaning the inside, put the Ice Shaving Chamber into the Motor Housing so it is seated on the shaft. Twist the shaft in the direction of the arrow to lock into position.
• Insert the Mixing Paddle into the slot in the center of the Pitcher. Now you are ready to enjoy cool, refreshing frozen beverages from your FROZEN BEVERAGE STATION!

HOW TO OPERATE

1. Place the unit on a stable, water-resistant surface near an electrical outlet before starting. Make sure the cord is away from any water source. It is acceptable to use an extension cord if needed. DO NOT plug in the unit at this time.

2. Place the Ice Shaving Chamber into the Motor Housing so it is seated on the shaft. Twist the shaft in the direction of the arrow to lock into position. Make sure that the Ice Shaving Chamber is free from any foreign objects.

3. Insert the Mixing Paddle into the slot in the center of the Pitcher.

4. Fill the Pitcher with your favorite beverage, liquor, juice, or drink mix.
   NOTE: Use the Liquid lines indicated on the side of the pitcher as a guide for how much liquid to add. You may choose to make a Small or Large serving.

5. Slide Pitcher into place on Base and turn clockwise until it stops. This will allow the Mixing Paddle to mix ice and ingredients once the operation begins.

6. Turn the Selector Knob to the desired setting. “SLUSH” produces finely shaved ice; “SNOW” produces coarser textured ice.

7. Place ice in Ice Shaving Chamber. Add enough ice cubes to reach, but not pass, the top of the Ice Shaving Chamber.
   **** BE CAREFUL when placing ice cubes in Ice Shaving Chamber. The blade is very sharp.

8. Plug the cord into the outlet.

9. When you are ready to start making your frozen beverage, place the Lid on the unit and turn counter-clockwise to engage the interlock switch (power ON/OFF).

10. The unit will immediately start and begin shaving the ice.
    NOTE: It may be necessary to remove the lid during shaving to redistribute ice.

11. Turn Lid clockwise to stop the FROZEN BEVERAGE STATION from shaving ice. Stop unit when shaved ice reaches desired “Shaved Ice” level indicated on the Pitcher. DO NOT shave ice above the Max line.

12. To remove Pitcher, turn counter-clockwise, slide out, and serve your frozen beverage.
    By following these simple instructions, you can use your FROZEN BEVERAGE STATION to make delightful treats for friends and family!

HELPFUL TIPS

CORD LOCATION

• The cord is located at the base of the unit. Turn base over and slide the door open to remove the cord.

ICE CUBES

• Ice cubes should sit a short while before putting them in the shaving unit. If ice has a frosty appearance, it is too hard to shave. Let ice sit until it is translucent and wet to the touch. Then it is ready to put in the Ice Shaving Chamber.

SHAVING ICE
If ice is not shaving, try one of the following:

• Turn the unit off by removing the Lid. Redistribute ice in Ice Shaving Chamber. BE CAREFUL to avoid contact with shaving blade.
• Make sure Lid is completely locked in the interlock switch. To start unit, place the Lid on the unit and turn counter-clockwise to lock in place.

M IXING PADDLE

• If the Mixing Paddle is not turning, make sure the Pitcher has been turned clockwise on Base until it stops. The Mixing Paddle must be properly affixed to the bottom of the Pitcher and top of the unit in order to mix ice and ingredients.

LEAKING

• It may appear that your FROZEN BEVERAGE STATION is leaking when unshaven ice melts and drips onto the base. This is normal. Wipe base dry with a soft cloth.
  Be sure to use FROZEN BEVERAGE STATION on a water-resistant surface.

CLEANING & MAINTENANCE

1. After using your FROZEN BEVERAGE STATION, disconnect from the electrical outlet. Remove plug by gripping the plug body and pulling it out of the outlet. Never yank or twist cord to unplug the unit.

2. Thoroughly wash the Lid, Ice Shaving Chamber, Mixing Paddle and Pitcher in warm, soapy water. Rinse and dry thoroughly. DO NOT place the unit or any parts in the dishwasher.
   **** Use EXTREME CAUTION when handling this appliance. Keep fingers clear from the blade and avoid contact at all times when using and cleaning

3. Use a damp, non-abrasive cloth to wipe exterior Motor Housing, Base and inside of the unit. Dry with non-abrasive towel. DO NOT put the Motor Housing or Base in water.

4. Once washing and drying is complete, reassemble your FROZEN BEVERAGE STATION.
   Now your FROZEN BEVERAGE STATION is ready to use again.
