enters a 10-minute wait period. After 10 minutes elapse, the compressor will
come on and the display will flash “COOL”. The Keep Cool is a 10-minute
cycle. When done, the unit will beep 5 times to note the cycle is finished.
The unit will shut off and go into Standby mode.

would like to mix as well, turn off the unit to reset the functions.
Note: You can turn the unit off at any time during Keep Cool.
SAFETY FEATURE
The Cuisinart ® Commercial Quality Ice Cream & Gelato Maker is equipped
with a safety feature that automatically stops the unit if the motor overheats.
This safety system may activate under heavy loads, if the unit has been
running for an excessively long period of time, or if added ingredients (nuts,
etc.) are added in extremely large pieces.
To reset the unit, press the Power button and unplug the unit. Let the unit
rest. After a few minutes, you may turn the unit on again and continue
making the dessert.
