User manual CUISINART ICE-25

[. . . ] DO NOT USE SHARP OBJECTS OR UTENSILS INSIDE THE FREEZER BOWL!Sharp objects will scratch and damage the inside of the freezer bowl. A rubber spatula or wooden spoon may be used when the appliance is in the OFF position. Any servicing other than cleaning and user maintenance should be done only by authorized Cuisinart Repair Personnel. [. . . ] If you desire a firmer consistency, transfer the dessert or drink to an airtight container and store in the freezer for two or more hours. FREEZING TIME AND BOWL PREPARATION The freezer bowl must be completely frozen before you begin your recipe. Wrap it in a plastic bag to prevent freezer burn. We recommend that you place the freezer bowl in the back of your freezer where it is coldest. The length of time needed to reach the frozen state depends on how cold your freezer is. For the most convenient frozen desserts and drinks, leave your freezer bowl in the freezer at all times. You can take it out any time for immediate use. In general, freezing time is between 6 hours and 22 hours. To determine whether the bowl is completely frozen, shake it. If you do not hear liquid moving, the cooling liquid is frozen. Reminder: Your freezer should be set to 0°F to ensure proper freezing of all foods. NOTE: Do not store frozen desserts or drinks in the freezer bowl. Desserts and drinks will stick to the side of the freezer bowl and may damage the bowl. Store only in a plastic airtight container. ADDING INGREDIENTS Ingredients such as chips and nuts should be added about 5 minutes before the recipe is complete. Once the dessert or drink has begun to thicken, add the ingredients through the ingredient spout. Nuts and other ingredients should be no larger than a chocolate chip. SAFETY FEATURE The Cuisinart ClassicTM is equipped with a safety feature that automatically stops the unit if the motor overheats. This may occur if the dessert or drink is extremely thick, if the unit has been running for an excessively long period of time, or if added ingredients (nuts, etc. ) are in extremely large pieces. To reset the unit, flip the ON/OFF switch to the OFF position. After a few minutes, you may turn the unit on again and continue making the dessert or drink. MAKING FROZEN DESSERTS OR DRINKS 1. Use Cuisinart's recipes from the pages that follow, or use your own recipe, making sure it yields 11/2 quarts or less. Do not fill the freezer bowl higher than 1/2" from the top, as the ingredients will increase in volume during the freezing process. For best results, prepare ingredients in a container from which it is easy to pour. Remove the freezer bowl from the freezer. (Remove plastic bag if you have wrapped freezer bowl. ) Place freezer bowl on the center of the base.
