Preparing Your Ingredients

For optimal results, ensure your liquid ingredients are chilled before adding them to the machine. The ICEE Pro does not require ice cubes.

Sugar Content Guidelines

Sufficient sugar content is crucial for proper freezing. Liquids with too little sugar will not freeze correctly. All inputs must contain at least 4% sugar (0.17 oz per 3.38 fl oz).

Using the Control Panel and Presets

The ICEE Pro features six one-touch presets for various frozen treats:

1. Fill the Mixing Chamber: Pour your prepared liquid into the mixing chamber. Do not exceed the MAX FILL line (54 fl oz for most drinks, 34 fl oz for ice cream). Ensure the MIN FILL line (17 fl oz) is met.
2. Select a Mode: Press the "MENU" button on the control panel to cycle through the available modes:
   • ICEE: For classic slushie consistency.
   • Milkshake: For thick, creamy milkshakes.
   • Frappe: For blended coffee or similar drinks.
   • Chilled Juice: For perfectly cooled, smooth juice.
   • Ice Cream: For scoopable ice cream.
   • Quick Freeze: Activates an instant chill mode for faster preparation.
3. Adjust Temperature/Thickness (Optional): Use the "+" and "-" buttons to fine-tune the freezing temperature, allowing for thicker frozen desserts or smoother, sippable drinks.
4. Start Operation: Once a mode is selected, the machine will begin the freezing process. The display will show the remaining time.
