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. Reminder: Your freezer should be set to 0°F to ensure proper freezing of all foods. MAKING FROZEN DESSERTS 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 ½" 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. Place freezer bowl on the center 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 rests in the center of the bowl, with the circle side facing up. 4. Place lid on base, oriented to the right of center, and turn clockwise to lock. Easy-lock lid mechanism allows lid to rest on base. 5. Once the unit is plugged in, all function buttons should be lit. Using the control panel, select the desired function: ICE CREAM, GELATO or SORBET. You will hear a beep indicating ready mode. Note: Use the ICE CREAM function when preparing frozen yogurt. The function cannot be changed after the preparation cycle begins. If necessary, press Start/Stop twice to reset the unit. 6. Select Start/Stop. The freezer bowl will start turning. 7. Immediately pour ingredients through ingredient spout. Place measurement cup on lid. 8. Frozen desserts will be done in 15 to 40 minutes. The time will depend on the recipe and volume of the dessert you are making. When the mixture has thickened to your liking, it is done. If you desire a firmer consistency, transfer the dessert to an airtight container and store in the freezer for two or more hours. Once the time expires, the unit will beep for 5 seconds every 3 minutes, for an additional maximum time of 30 minutes to remind you that your dessert is ready to serve or store. NOTE: There are many variables to the final consistency - room temperature, bowl temperature, ingredient temperature, etc. If the recipe is done sooner, press Start/Stop. NOTE: Do not store frozen desserts in the freezer bowl. Desserts will stick to the side of the freezer bowl and may damage the bowl. Store only in a plastic airtight container. FREEZING TIME AND BOWL PREPARATION The freezer bowl must be completely frozen before you begin your recipe. For the most convenient frozen desserts, 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 12 hours and 24 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. We recommend that you place the freezer bowl in the back of your freezer where it is coldest. 3
