Ice Cream Machine Operating Instructions
(Electro Freeze CS4)
Initial Cleaning when machine is clean (sanatising):
Lift off the black plastic cover from the top of the machine to expose the hopper.
Pull out the feed pipe (stainless steel pipe) from its location (feed hole) and laying the pipe down inside the hopper.
Mix sanitizer as stated on instructions on package, with warm water and pour into the top hopper.
Plug machine into an electricity supply (if not already connected to an electricity supply).
Move the left side switch on the machine to clean and the right switch to day.
Leave to run for at least 3 minutes and then turn the left switch to the off position.
Do Not switch the right toggle switch to auto, as it will freeze up the beater and you will not be able to carry on with the cleaning until it defrosts (quite a long time!).
Place a bowl under the dispenser and pull the dispenser lever down (front of the machine) until the fluid stops coming out.
Clean the front of machine with a clean cloth, J cloth, flannel or paper towels.
Inspect the stainless steel pipe to ensure the feed hole is exposed; insert the stainless steel pipe assembly into the feed hole at the back of the hopper, making sure the stainless steel pipe assembly is seated firmly in the hole.
If the feed hole is closed! Lift out the plastic insert, 20 centimetres and turn the plastic insert ΒΌ of a turn to expose the feed hole, replace the plastic insert into the stainless steel pipe and if not in the feed hole; insert the complete stainless steel into the feed hole in the hopper until it seats firmly.
How to make soft ice cream in the machine:
Pour ice cream mixture into the hopper until it covers the engraved ring on the feed tube (5 litres). Pull the Feed pipe out of its hole (in the hopper) for 5 seconds to ensure the freezing chamber is full of ice cream mix.
Very Important: Pull the dispenser lever down on the front of the machine until a continuous flow of ice cream mixture is evident.
Release the dispensing handle to stop flow.
You can fill hopper with ice cream mix as required minimum 5 litres to a maximum of 9 litres
(dimple markers on each corner of the hopper).
Replace the black plastic cover over the hopper.
Switch the left hand switch to auto and the right hand switch to day.
Wait for approximately 10 minutes (when filled with 5 litres) until the machine noise has stop or reduced. The ice cream is now ready to serve at the rate of one every 22 seconds.
For hygiene safety and taste, draw off about 2/3 ice creams and throw away before serving.
To make an ice cream:
Hold a cone under the dispenser
Pull the lever down and with a circular swaying motion of the cone allowing the ice cream to fall on to the rim of the cone (not into the centre of the cone), ending up with smaller whirls to a peak.
For a perfect ice cream every time, please wait 22 seconds between each ice cream.
Good luck, as practice makes perfect!
If the red light add mix light on the front of the ice cream machine comes on, the machine is running low on ice cream mixture,
lift the cover on the hopper and refill with ice cream mix and carry on serving
The ice cream mixture will stays in good condition for 3/4 days so long as the machine is left plugged in
and set to overnight shut down.
Overnight shut down with an electrical supply:
To set to overnight refrigeration:
Lift off the black plastic cover from the top of the machine to expose the hopper.
Close off the ice cream flow by lifting out the plastic insert, 20 centimetres (by the bar at the top) from the stainless steel pipe and turning the plastic insert a quarter of a turn, this will close off the feed hole.
Reseat the plastic insert back into the stainless steel pipe.
Replace the black plastic cover over the hopper.
Switch the right hand switch to night, leaving the left hand switch in the auto position.
This is now set in refrigeration mode.
To restart machine after overnight shut down;
To reset the machine to make ice creams:
Lift off the black plastic cover from the top of the machine to expose the hopper.
Open up the input flow for the ice cream by lifting out the plastic insert 20 centimetres (by the bar at the top) from the stainless steel pipe and turning the plastic insert a quarter of a turn, this will open and exposing the feed hole, (if you can see a hole through the top of the plastic and feed pipe then the hole at the bottom is allowing the ice cream to flow).
Reseat the plastic insert back in the stainless steel pipe (exposing the hole).
Top-up the hopper with ice cream mix (if required) to the maximum (the dimples on each of the corners of the hopper with a minimum of at least 5 litres in the hopper.
Test the ice cream is flowing through the machine by pulling the dispensing handle down.
Switch the left hand switch to auto and the right hand switch to day.
Wait for approximately 10 minutes until the machine stops making any noise.
For hygiene safety and taste, remove the star shape plastic piece that clips underneath the dispensing plunger, clean and replace, then draw off about 2/3 ice creams before serving.
Cleaning the machine after 4 days or at the end of the event.
To clean the machine at the end of the event:
Lift off the black plastic cover from the top of the machine to expose the hopper.
Pull out the stainless steel pipe from the feed hole.
Removing the inner plastic tube from the stainless steel pipe, laying both parts down inside the hopper.
Move the left side switch to the clean position and the right hand switch to night position
Put a bowl under the dispenser controls.
Draw off all the ice cream mix by pulling down the dispensing handle.
When all ice cream has been removed, switch the left hand switch to off (centre position).
Mix up approximately 5 litres of warm soapy / fairy water, wash the inside of the hopper and pour the remaining soap water into the hopper.
