PARTS & FEATURES

ASSEMBLING THE SHAVED ICE MAKER

PRIOR TO ASSEMBLING:

• Remove all packaging from the inside and outside of the Shaved Ice Maker.
• Check that the Maker has no visible damage and that no parts are missing.
• Ensure all parts and pieces are out of the packaging before discarding it.
• Before using for the first time (or after prolonged storage without use), wash any parts that will come into contact with food. See "Cleaning & Maintenance."
• Prior to assembling the Shaved Ice Maker for use, ensure that the unit is NOT plugged into an electrical outlet. Do NOT assemble the Shaved Ice Maker when it is plugged into an electrical outlet.

USING THE SHAVED ICE MAKER

CONSISTENCY ADJUSTOR KNOB GUIDE:

1. Place the Main Body on a stable and dry surface (Photo A).
   
2. Insert the Removable Ice Shaving Cup into the Ice Shaving Chamber (Photo B).
   
3. Attach the Stirring Paddle to the peg on the inside of the Serving Pitcher. Then slide the Serving Pitcher into the Main Body using the shape of the Base and directional arrows as a guide (Photo C).
   
4. Once pushed in all the way, turn the Serving pitcher all the way to the side as per the directional arrows on the base (Photo D).
   
5. Once the Serving Pitcher is locked in, plug in the Power Cord to an electrical outlet.
6. Place ice cubes into the Removable Ice Shaving Cup. For best results, use only medium-sized frozen cubes directly from the freezer. Do not place more than 8 ice cubes inside the Cup at once. Overloading the Shaving Cup can cause the chute to clog and prevent shaving (Photo E).
   
7. Choose desired consistency and turn Consistency Adjustor Knob according to chart (Photo F).
   
8. Cover with Locking Lid and turn to lock as per directional arrows on the Lid. Once locked, the Shaved Ice Maker will begin shaving ice and depositing the ice into the Serving Pitcher. (Photo G).
   
   For bigger batches, add ice cubes and shave in batches, taking care to add ONLY 8 medium-sized frozen cubes per batch. The Maker will shave one batch in about a minute.

NOTE: There is no power button for the Shaved Ice Maker. It begins shaving once the clear plastic Locking Lid is locked into place. It will also stop shaving when the Lid is unlocked or the machine is unplugged.

DISASSEMBLING THE SHAVED MAKER

To prevent injury, always ensure that the Shaved Ice Maker is not plugged into an electrical outlet before assembling or disassembling.

TO DISASSEMBLE:

1. Once the Shaved Ice Maker is unplugged, remove the Locking Lid. Then remove the Removable Ice Shaving Cup (Photo A).
   
2. If you have not already, remove the Serving Pitcher by turning the Pitcher handle toward the front of the Maker to unlock and slide out. Then remove Stirring Paddle (Photo B).
   

The Shaving Blade in the Shaved Ice Maker is sharp! Handle the Shaved Ice Maker care. Do not put hands near the Shaving Blade while the Shaved Ice Maker is connected to the power outlet.

CLEANING & MAINTENANCE

PRIOR TO CLEANING

• Disassemble the Shaved Ice Maker as per instructions.
• When cleaning, exercise caution to avoid touching the Shaving Blade as the blade is very sharp and could cause injury.
• No part of the Shaved Ice Maker is dishwasher safe. You must hand wash all pieces.
• DO NOT submerge the Main Body of the Shaved Ice Maker in water or other liquids.

TO CLEAN

• To clean the Main Body of the Shaved Ice Maker including the Ice Shaving Chamber and Shaving Blade, wipe down with a damp cloth then dry thoroughly. When cleaning the Ice Shaving Chamber, exercise caution near the Shaving Blade as it is sharp and may cause injury.

• Avoid using abrasive cleaning agents to clean the appliance as they may damage it.
• Dry all parts thoroughly before storing.

CLEANING TIP: Ice in the Ice Shaving Chamber will melt to some extent before being shaved. The water from this will drip down through the Maker and may pool on your countertop. To keep the counter clean and tidy, have a dish towel handy or place the Shaved Ice Maker on tray prior to shaving.
