HELPFUL TIPS
•
If Spout is stiff during first use, apply more force to turn the knob.
•
Add more liquid to Blending Chamber if vacuum occurs around Cylinder during use.
•
Blending Chamber must be firmly attached to Base or unit will not turn on.
•
A towel placed under your RETRO SERIES™ SLUSH MACHINE, will
help with clean-up. You should expect some dripping.
•
DO NOT store slush drinks in freezer or fridge. They should be consumed immediately.
•
REMINDER: 32 ounces of liquid does not produce 32 ounces of slush.
You are creating slush and the liquid has solidified into ice.
Liquids
•
Drinks with a high sugar or corn syrup base will crystallize faster and
produce a thicker slush than those with milk or lower sugar content.
Carbonated drinks will set up slower and will not be as thick.
•
We recommend adding pre-chilled liquid to your RETRO SERIES™
SLUSH MACHINE. This will quicken the slush making process.
•
Carbonated diet drinks and alcoholic beverages will not slush.
DO NOT add alcohol until the slush is poured into glasses.
•
DO NOT use stiff mixtures such as whipped cream or frozen liquids.
Mixture is Not Freezing
•
DO NOT operate the unit longer than required. If after 15 minutes the
mixture has not yet achieved the slush consistency or has thawed again, do
not continue. Possible reasons for mixture not chilling or freezing:
1. The Aluminum Cylinder was not cold enough. Try adding more ice
and salt. Salt is a critical part of the freezing process and you will need
plenty of salt added to the ice for the slush to freeze properly.
2. The mixture was too warm.
3. Alcohol was added to the mixture. DO NOT add alcohol
until the slush is poured into glasses.
CLEANING & MAINTENANCE
1.
After using your RETRO SERIES™ SLUSH MACHINE, disconnect from
electrical outlet. Remove plug by gripping the plug body and pulling
out of the outlet. Never yank or twist cord to unplug the unit.
2.
Thoroughly wash the Blending Chamber, Aluminum Cylinder, Cylinder
Cage, Mixing Mechanism, Lid and Drip Tray in warm, sudsy water and
thoroughly dry. DO NOT put the Base in water. When needed, use a damp,
non-abrasive cloth to wipe exterior and then dry thoroughly.
3.
Once washing and drying is complete, reassemble your RETRO SERIES™ SLUSH MACHINE.
4.
NEVER immerse Base in water or put any parts in the dishwasher.
