Setup

Before using your machine for the first time, follow these important steps:

1. Unpacking: Carefully remove all packaging materials and inspect the machine for any damage.
2. Initial Placement: Place the unit on a stable, level surface. Ensure it remains upright for at least 2 hours before plugging it in to allow the refrigerant to settle. This machine is designed for indoor use only.
3. Cleaning: Disassemble all removable parts (vessel, lid, auger, handle, drip tray, mesh, condensation catch). Wash these parts thoroughly with warm water and mild detergent. Rinse and dry completely. The main body motor base should be wiped clean with a damp cloth. Do not immerse the motor base in water.
4. Assembly: Reassemble the clean and dry components. Ensure the auger is correctly placed inside the evaporator, and the vessel is securely locked onto the motor base using the container lock handle. Place the drip tray and mesh in position.

Operating Instructions

Operating your SYINTAO machine is straightforward:

1. Add Liquid: Open the fill port cover and pour your desired liquid into the vessel. Ensure the liquid level is between the MIN FILL (0.5L) and MAX FILL (1.8L) lines. For ice cream, the maximum fill is 1L. Do not add ice, solid ingredients, or hot ingredients directly into the vessel. A minimum of 500ml liquid is required.
2. Select a Preset Mode: Use the LED control panel to select one of the 6 preset modes:
   • Slush: For classic frozen drinks.
   • Ice Cream: For soft serve consistency.
   • Cocktail Slush: Optimized for alcoholic frozen beverages.
   • Milkshake: For creamy, blended drinks.
   • Frappe: For coffee-based frozen drinks.
   • Chilled Juice: For simply chilling beverages.
   Each mode automatically adjusts freezing power and time.
3. Start Operation: The machine will begin chilling and mixing. The LED display will show the remaining time and real-time temperature. The process typically takes 15-60 minutes, depending on the recipe and desired consistency. You can add more liquid during the freezing process to customize flavor.
4. Dispense: Once the desired consistency is reached, pull the handle to dispense your frozen treat into a cup or bowl. Keep the unit running during dispensing.

Delay Timer Function

The convenient delay timer allows you to load ingredients in advance and schedule the machine to start later. This ensures your slushies or soft serve are ready exactly when you want them.

Important Usage Tips for Best Results

• Sugar Content: Liquids must contain at least 4% sugar to achieve proper freezing. Sugar-free or artificially sweetened beverages will not freeze correctly. Refer to the sugar percentage chart for common drinks.
• Alcohol Content: For alcohol-based drinks like frozen margaritas or wine slushies, keep the alcohol content between 2.8% and 16% for optimal freezing.
