INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
IMPORTANT: Before starting the ice cream maker, make sure that it has been perfectly assembled
and the power unit has been firmly attached to the lid.
- Plug the appliance into a mains power socket. Press the power button (P) to supply power to the
appliance; the display (L) will show"60.00" meaning that the default operating time is 60 minutes.
- Based on the recipe, press the Timer button (N) to set the operating time: press the button repeat-
edly until the required time (10, 20, 30, 40, 50, and 60 minutes) is shown on the display (L).
- Pour the previously prepared mixture in through the opening in the lid (F) (Fig. 6).
IMPORTANT: To avoid excessive volumes or waste, make sure that the ingredients never exceed
80% of the capacity of the removable container (D). Remember that ice cream increases in volume
while it is being made.
- At this point, press the start button (O) to start up the appliance and it will start to prepare ice
cream. At the same time, the mixing process will commence with the mixing paddle (E), together
with the chilling process, via the internal compressor and both LEDs (I-M) will switch on.
- When the power button (P) is pressed during the ice cream making process, the appliance will
immediately commence a countdown of three minutes, after which the machine will start up again;
the chilling and mixing functions will start up together. If, while counting down, the power button
(P) is pressed again, the mixing function will commence immediately while the chilling function will
only commence after the countdown.
IMPORTANT: If there is a power blackout or the appliance is suddenly disconnected while making
ice cream, there will be no automatic countdown function. We recommend starting the machine after
3 minutes, otherwise it will pass into compressor auto-protection mode.
- When the two processes have been completed and the ice cream is ready, the appliance will stop
automatically and an acoustic warning will sound 10 times. The display (L) will read "00.00" to
show the end of the countdown.
IMPORTANT: Never remove the power unit (H) while the ice cream is being made.
- Press the stop button (O) and unplug the appliance.
- Remove the power unit (H) and the lid (F), by turning it anticlockwise, and the removable container
(D). Place the finished ice cream in another container, using the plastic scoop (R) (Fig. 7);never
use a metal utensil, as this could scratch the removable container (D).
- If 10 minutes after the ice cream making process is complete and the acoustic signal has been
heard 10 times, the appliance is not switched off using the stop button (O), the "extended chill
function" will start automatically so as not to allow the ice cream to melt.
Extended chill function
The appliance starts this function (no mixing) for 10 minutes every 10 minutes for a total of 1 hour
before returning to the initial state (power on but appliance not operating).
IMPORTANT: always unplug the appliance when serving the ice cream to prevent any risk of electric
shock.
Adjustments while operating
- To stop operation, press the start/stop button (O) for 3 seconds or press the power button (P) once
during the ice cream making process.
- 4 -
- While the appliance is operating, it is possible to extend operating times as required by pressing
the Timer button (N) repeatedly; each time the button is pressed adds 10 minutes up to a maxi-
mum of 60 minutes. Time can only be increased, not decreased.
How to extend operation (after the ice cream has been made).
For a thicker ice cream, after the previously set time is over and the machine has stopped and
returned to its original state, it is possible to add a time of 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60 minutes by pressing
the Timer button (N) and then the start/stop button (O). This way, the appliance will start again for
the required time and then stop and return to the extended chill function so that the ice cream does
not melt.

RECIPES
VANILLA ICE CREAM
For 10 portions (1/2 cup):
1 cup full milk
3/4 cup granulated sugar
2 cups cream
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract to flavour
In a medium-sized container, mix the milk and sugar together with a handheld mixer or whisk, until
the sugar has dissolved (about 1-2 minutes at low speed). Stir in the cream and vanilla. Switch on
the appliance, pour the mix into the removable container (D) through the opening in the lid (F), then
leave to mix for about 40 minutes.
Variations:
- Mint flavour: Add 1- 1.5 spoons of mint syrup in place of the vanilla.
- Mint choc chip: Add 100 g plain or semisweet chocolate chips to the mint flavour.
- Walnut: Melt 50 g unsalted butter in a pan. Add a cup of chopped walnuts and 1/4 teaspoon of
salt. Cook over a medium-low heat until the nuts turn slightly brown. Drain off the butter, leave
the walnuts to cool and add to the ice cream mix during the last 5 minutes.
- Biscuits and cream: Add 3/4 cup of vanilla or chocolate shortbread biscuits to the mix
