Operating Instructions
Creating delicious frozen drinks is simple with your FOHERE Slushie Machine:
Preparation:
- Ensure your liquid mixture has a sugar content of at least 5% to prevent freezing issues. For sugar-free options, use allulose.
- For alcoholic beverages, maintain an alcohol content between 2.8% and 16%. If the alcohol content is higher than 16%, mix it with another liquid like soda or juice.
- Always premix ingredients thoroughly before pouring into the vessel.
- Chilling your juice or drink mix beforehand can speed up the freezing process.
Making a Slushie:
- Fill Vessel: Open the sliding top cover and pour your pre-mixed ingredients into the easy-fill vessel. Do not exceed the MAX fill line. The vessel has a 48oz liquid capacity within its 68oz total volume.
- Select Program: Use the control panel to select one of the 5 preset modes:
- Slush: For classic lemonade, soda, or fresh juice slushies.
- Spiked Slush: For cocktails like frozen margaritas or daiquiris.
- Chilled Juice: For a rich, tasty chilled juice treat.
- Milkshake: For creamy milkshakes from chocolate milk or eggnog.
- Frappe: For delicious, flavor-filled frappes from lattes or coffees.
- Start Operation: Press the Power/Start button. The machine will begin the freezing process. Freezing times vary from 15 to 60 minutes depending on ingredients and starting temperature.
- Child Lock: During operation, the child lock automatically activates, preventing accidental button presses. To regain control, hold the lock button for 5 seconds.
- Dispense: Once the drink is ready (the machine will signal), use the self-serve handle with the pour spout to dispense directly into your cup.

Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your FOHERE Slushie Machine, please refer to the following common solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Machine displays "E4" error or stops freezing. | Low sugar content in the mixture. | Ensure your mixture has a minimum of 5% sugar content. Sugar-free substitutes or artificial sweeteners may not meet the requirements. Add 1-2 spoons of sugar, date paste, honey, or coconut sugar, pre-dissolved, to the mixture. |
| Slushie texture is too icy or not smooth. | Incorrect sugar/alcohol content or insufficient freezing time. | Verify sugar content is at least 5%. For alcoholic drinks, ensure alcohol content is between 2.8% and 16%. Allow adequate freezing time (15-60 minutes). Set thickness to level 5 for optimal distribution. |
| Machine does not turn on. | Not plugged in, power outage, or child lock engaged. | Check power connection. Ensure the outlet is functional. If child lock is engaged, hold the lock button for 5 seconds to disengage. |
