How to Make Slush

Note:

Before use, please thoroughly clean all components that will come into contact with the slush, including: the cooling bucket, loading bucket assembly, mixing blade, and loading bucket sealing ring. Ensure the power cord is disconnected from the socket before cleaning. When making a slush, please place the machine on a flat surface to guarantee the proper functioning of the machine's compressor.

Steps for Making a slush:

Prepare the slush ingredients according to your personal recipe. There's no need to pre-freeze ingredients in the refrigerator, as the machine is equipped with a built-in compressor that can directly freeze the ingredients and create a slush.

1. Assemble the machine

• Diagram showing correct orientation of the loading bucket sealing ring: ✔️ Ensure the correct direction of the loading bucket sealing ring.
• Diagram illustrating the loading bucket sealing ring: Be mindful that the loading bucket sealing ring may come off when disassembling or assembling the loading bucket; always check if the sealing ring is properly installed.
• Diagram showing incorrect orientation of the loading bucket sealing ring: ❌ Incorrect direction of the bucket sealing ring.

3. Operate the machine

Diagram showing the control panel with steps indicated: Step 1: According to the properties of the ingredients, choose the suitable slush function. Step 2: Use the '+' and '-' buttons to select the desired slush density. Step 3: Press the start button [▶️].

4. Insulation state

After the slush is completed, the machine enters an insulation state, and the control panel displays COOL [COOL display].

5. Dispense the slush

6. Cleaning

After enjoying your slush, it is recommended to pour in 2L of clear water and activate the cleaning function. After 5 minutes, drain the water (if necessary, repeat this step until the frozen beverages are thoroughly flushed from the evaporator).

7. Power off and unplug

Press the power button to turn off the machine and unplug it. Hand wash all parts or thoroughly clean them in a dishwasher after each use (Do not use the heated dry cycle cleaning function), and finally reassemble the components back into the main unit.

Instructions

1. Connect to Power Supply

Plug the power cord into a suitable socket, ensuring that the shape and voltage of the socket match the specifications indicated in the instructions.

2. Button Control Functions

(1) Custom Made Function

This function allows the user to set the temperature themselves, by adjusting the desired temperature with the '+' and '-' buttons. After the temperature is set, press the 'Start' button to begin making the slush. If you press the 'Pause' button during the process, you can switch to other functions or other temperatures. Once the slush is made, the machine will automatically switch to the insulation mode (displaying COOL).

Note: If the temperature is set too low, it may cause the motor to stall or the slush to overflow.

(2) Cold Drinks Function

Touch the button to access the cold drinks function. Adjust the desired level with the '+' and '-' buttons. After setting the temperature, press the 'Start' button to begin making the cold drinks. If you press the 'Pause' button during the process, you can switch to other functions or other temperature levels. Once the cold drink is made, the machine will enter the insulation mode (displaying COOL).

(3) Slush Function

Based on the properties of the ingredients, select the appropriate slush function. Adjust the slush density with the '+' and '-' buttons (the default setting is recommended). After setting, press the 'Start' button to begin making the slush. If you press the 'Pause' button during the process, you can switch to other functions.

(4) Cleaning Function

Pour warm water into the mixing bucket, touch the 'Clean' [⚙️] button to select the cleaning function. Press the 'Start' [▶️] button to activate the mixing motor. After the process is complete, press the 'Power' button to turn off the machine.

Note: If necessary, you can add 1-2 drops of food-grade detergent, wait for 2 minutes, and then proceed with the cleaning.

3. Insulation Function

Entering the COOL (insulation) mode indicates that the slush has been completed. To prevent the slush from melting because you might be away during the slush-making process and cannot consume or store it in time after it's ready, the machine will activate the cooling function at regular intervals to maintain the freshness and texture of the slush. The insulation period lasts for 4 hours, after which the machine will emit 10 short beeps and then shut off automatically.

4. Motor Speed Loss Alarm Function

The motor is equipped with a blockage protection feature. If the motor detects a speed loss during operation, the machine will issue an E1 alarm, and both the compressor and the motor will temporarily cease working. This function is designed to prevent damage to the motor's drive system. If this situation occurs unintentionally, please follow these steps to resolve the issue:

1. Unplug the machine.
2. Remove the food mixture.
3. Allow the machine to cool down for approximately 15 minutes.
4. Disassemble all components and attachments to ensure there are no ingredients stuck in the mixing blades.
5. Plug the machine back in, reassemble all parts, and resume using the machine.

Important Notes

• Ensure not to exceed the maximum capacity. This is the most typical reason for overloading the appliance.
• Do not add solid ice cubes or solid ingredients.

5. Compressor Protection Function

• After switching from the slush mode or cold drink mode to the power-off mode, if you restart the slush mode or cold drink mode, the compressor will have an approximately 3-minute protection period. However, if you unplug and re-plug the power cord before restarting the machine, it defaults to a fresh start, and there will be no delay when selecting the slush mode or cold drink mode again.
• When switching from the working mode to the pause state, the compressor will delay shutting down for approximately 3 minutes.

6. Bucket Securement Safety Function

• If the loading bucket is not properly installed, pressing the 'Start' [▶️] button will not activate the compressor, fan, or mixing motor, and a warning will be issued.
• Should the loading bucket become detached during operation, the compressor, fan, and mixing motor will be paused, and a warning will be issued.

Fault Display

When the slush maker encounters an issue, the display will present an error code to indicate the specific problem. The error codes and their corresponding descriptions are as follows:

8. Celsius (°C)/Fahrenheit (°F) Switching Operation

Within 30 seconds after powering on, press the three buttons (Power button, '+' button, '-' button) at the same time for 2 seconds to switch the temperature between Celsius and Fahrenheit. When switching, 'C' will be displayed for 3 seconds, indicating that the Celsius system has been entered, and 'F' will be displayed for 3 seconds, indicating that the Fahrenheit system has been entered.
