Helpful Hints - Cuisinart SCM-100C Instruction

5. To begin shaving ice, drop approximately 8–12 ice cubes (depending
on size and shape) into the ice chute. Do not overfill or the interlock
safety feature will prevent the shaving mechanism from turning on.
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO PUSH ICE CUBES INTO BLADE USING
HANDS OR OTHER INSTRUMENTS.
6. Flip the toggle switch to the On position and firmly push the ice press
down to start the ice shaving mechanism.
NOTE: If a large ice cube becomes lodged in the unit so that the
blade cannot reach it, flip the toggle switch to the Off position and
unplug from outlet. Empty freshly shaved snow from the snow bin,
place snow bin back on the main housing, then pour warm water
down the ice chute until lodged ice cube melts or falls free. Empty
the water from the snow bin, and dry thoroughly before placing back
on the main housing. Resume feeding ice cubes through the ice
chute.
7. When shaving multiple batches of ice cubes, it is important to flatten
the snow in the snow bin. You will notice a mound of snow is formed
directly under the ice crushing mechanism, and if not flattened this
could stop the shaving mechanism from operating properly. To
flatten, simply remove the snow bin and either empty freshly shaved
snow into another container or flatten within the snow bin using the
ice scooper.
8. When all the ice has been shaved, turn the toggle switch to the Off
position and unplug.
9. Remove the snow bin from the main housing and use the ice
scooper to shape your snow cones.
10. Add ingredients specified in the recipe section or as desired.

HELPFUL HINTS

• It is important to shave ice cubes fresh from the freezer. Partially melted
ice cubes could keep the shaving mechanism from operating properly.
If an ice cube becomes lodged because of this, please see NOTE
(number 6 under operation) to release.
• If needed, additional paper cones are sold by online kitchen and paper
suppliers.
