If the appliance is of the grounded type, the extension cord should be a grounding 3-wire cord. The extension cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.

Parts & Features

before using the ice cream maker

1. Remove all packaging from the inside and outside of the My Mug Ice Cream Maker.
2. Check that the Ice Cream Maker has no visible damage and that no parts are missing. Ensure all parts and pieces are out of the packaging before discarding it.
3. Before using for the first time (or after prolonged storage without use), wash any parts that will come into contact with food. See “Cleaning & Maintenance.”
4. Prior to making ice cream, place the Mug with built-in Cooling Bowl in the freezer and leave it there for at least 24-48 hours. The Mug must be frozen in an upright position—do not place it horizontally. The temperature in the freezer must be at least 0℉ to allow the ice cream to churn and freeze properly. Remove the Mug from freezer just prior to preparing ice cream. Do not let the Mug sit at room temperature for any amount of time prior to churning.
5. Only use pre-chilled ingredients in the My Mug. Do not use room temperature ingredients. For best results, prep ice cream mixture ahead of time and then refrigerate for at least two hours to overnight.

Using the ICE CREAM MAKER

NOTE: The My Mug Ice Cream Maker can hold up to 1 cup of liquid mixture. Do not exceed 1 cup when preparing ice cream.

• Before making ice cream, ensure the My Mug has chilled in the freezer for at least 24-48 hours. Prepare ice cream ingredients as per recipe of choice. Transfer ingredients to a heat-safe bowl and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight. Only use chilled ingredients in the My Mug. Do not use room temperature or hot ingredients.
• When ready to churn, remove the chilled Mug from the freezer (photo A) and place it on a stable surface. Fit the Motor onto the Lid until the pins on the Motor fit into the slots of the Lid (photo B).

The Mug is most effective the first 20 minutes after removing it from the freezer and needs to be placed in the freezer for 24-48 hours before being used again.

• Slide the Stirring Paddle into the slot located on the base of the Motor until it clicks (photo C).
• Lower the Lid with Motor and Stirring Paddle attached into the Mug. Make sure the pins along the edge of the Lid align with the notches on the edges of the Locking Base on the Mug. Then, turn clockwise until the Lid and Base lock together (photo D). Scan to see  it in Action
• Do NOT pour ingredients into the Ice Cream Maker until the Ice Cream Maker has been powered on and is churning. Plug the Ice Cream Maker in and press the Power Button (photo E). The Paddle will begin to rotate.
• With the Paddle rotating, now is the appropriate time to pour the ice cream mixture through the Ingredient Chute (photo F). Churn as per recipe instructions, taking care not to over-churn; the final result will be the consistency of soft serve and no amount of churning will produce a firm consistency. To achieve a firmer consistency, it will be necessary to transfer the ice cream to a freezer-safe container with a lid and freeze for a further 2-3 hours.
• Add preferred mix-ins (cookie crumbles, nuts, fruit, sprinkles, etc.) through the Ingredient Chute toward the end of the churning cycle but not early on in the churning cycle.
• When ice cream is done churning, press the Power Button to power off the Motor. To disassemble, unlock the Motor from the Mug by rotating the Motor counter clockwise (photo G). Keep in mind that when removing the Lid, the Stirring Paddle will remain in the ice cream to minimize mess.
• Remove the Stirring Paddle to begin enjoying soft serve straight from the Mug! (photo H).

To add cookie crumbles, sprinkles, nuts, or other preferred mix-ins to any recipe, simply insert through the Ingredient Chute toward the end of the churning cycle.

CLEANING & MAINTENANCE

• DO NOT put any parts in the dishwasher.
• Never immerse the Motor in water.
• Once disassembled, hand wash the Mug, Paddle, and Lid with a sponge, warm water, and mild detergent.
• Clean the Motor component by wiping it down with a damp cloth.
• Make sure all parts are dried thoroughly before storing or freezing.
• Never place the Mug in the freezer if it is still wet.
• Never store the Paddle and/or Motor in the freezer.
• For simple cabinet storage, flip the Motor upside down into the Mug (photo A).

WARNING: Do not submerge the Motor in water or any liquid. The motor is not dishwasher safe.
