3. Setup

Before using your SUMO Ice Cream Containers for the first time, please follow these steps:

1. Unpack: Carefully remove all components from the packaging.
2. Initial Cleaning: Wash all parts (container, lid, and inner component) with warm, soapy water or place them in the dishwasher. Rinse thoroughly and allow to dry completely.
3. Assembly: Ensure the inner component is correctly seated within the outer container. The lid should then snap securely onto the top, creating an airtight seal.

4. Operating Instructions

Using your SUMO Ice Cream Containers is straightforward:

1. Fill the Container: After preparing your homemade ice cream, transfer it into the SUMO container. Each container has a 1.5-quart capacity.
2. Labeling: Use an erasable marker to write the flavor and date on the designated area of the lid. This helps in organizing your freezer and identifying contents easily.
3. Secure the Lid: Press the lid firmly onto the container to create an airtight seal. This helps prevent freezer burn and maintains the ice cream's texture.
4. Freezer Storage: Place the filled and sealed containers in your freezer. The long, slim design allows for efficient storage, even in crowded freezers or freezer doors.
5. Scooping: The container's shape is designed for easy scooping from one end to the other, allowing for perfect scoops every time.

To ensure the longevity and hygiene of your SUMO Ice Cream Containers:

• Cleaning: All components are dishwasher safe (top rack recommended). For hand washing, use warm water and mild dish soap.

6. Troubleshooting

Here are solutions to common issues you might encounter:

• Issue: Ice cream has freezer burn.
  Solution: Ensure the lid is securely fastened to create an airtight seal before placing the container in the freezer. The double-wall insulation is designed to minimize freezer burn.
• Issue: Ice cream is too hard to scoop.
  Solution: Allow the container to sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes before scooping. The container's design is optimized for easier scooping compared to traditional round containers.
• Issue: Lid is difficult to open or close.
  Solution: Check for any ice buildup around the rim of the container or lid. Ensure both parts are clean and dry before sealing.
