3. Mixing Arm
Mixes and aerates ingredients in freezer
bowl to create frozen dessert or drink.
4. Freezer Bowl
Contains cooling liquid within a double
insulated wall to create fast and even
freezing. Double wall keeps the bowl
cool and at an even temperature.
5. Base
Contains heavy-duty motor strong enough
to handle ice cream, frozen yogurt,
sherbet, sorbet, and frozen drinks.
6. On/Off Dial
7. Rubber Feet (not shown)
Nonslip feet keep base
stationary during use.
8. Cord Storage (not shown)
Unused cord is easily pushed into
the base to keep counters neat and safe.
BEFORE USING FOR THE FIRST TIME
DO NOT immerse the motor base in water. Wipe it with a moist cloth. Wash the lid,
freezer bowl and mixing arm in warm soapy water to remove any dust or residue
from the manufacturing and shipping process. DO NOT clean any of the parts with
abrasive cleaners or hard implements.
FREEZING TIME AND BOWL PREPARATION
The freezer bowl must be completely frozen before you begin your recipe.
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. Before freezing, wash and dry the bowl. 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.
Reminder: Your freezer should be set to 0°F to ensure proper freezing of all foods.
MAKING FROZEN DESSERTS OR DRINKS
1. Use Cuisinart’s recipes from the pages that follow, or use your own recipe, making
sure it yields 2 quarts or less. Do not fill the freezer bowl higher than 1⁄2" (1 cm) from
the top. 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.
2. Remove the freezer bowl from the freezer. (Remove plastic bag if you have
wrapped freezer bowl.) Place freezer bowl on the centre of the base.
NOTE: Bowl will begin to defrost quickly once it has been removed from freezer.
Use it immediately after removing from freezer.
3. Place mixing arm in freezer bowl. Arm does not fit tightly. It just rests in the centre
of the bowl, with the circle side facing up.
4. Place lid on base. Easy-lock lid mechanism allows lid to rest on base in multiple
positions (see diagram).
5.Turn the On/Off switch to ON position. Freezer bowl will begin to turn.
6. Immediately pour ingredients through ingredient spout.
7. Frozen desserts or drinks will be done in 25–35 minutes. The time will depend
on the recipe and volume of the dessert or drink you are making. When the
mixture has thickened to your liking, it is done. 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.
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.
