Caring for the Ice Shaver/Blender
Cleaning Instructions–General
wWARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard
Unplug unit before general cleaning.
Do not immerse base in water or
other liquid.
Failure to follow these instructions can
result in death, fire, or electrical shock.
General cleaning
Do not allow food residue to dry on any part of the
unit. Wash and rinse container, blender blade
assembly and base after each use, or whenever it
will not be used again within one hour:
1. Wipe the exterior of the base with a damp cloth
or sponge, then wipe dry with a soft towel. The
base contains electrical components: do not
immerse, use a high-pressure washer, or use
a dishwasher to clean the base.
2. Take particular care not to scratch the display
screen and exterior of the ice hopper. Use only a
soft, slightly damp cloth. Do NOT use any sort of
harsh or abrasive cleaners, or dry paper towel;
these can scratch the display window.
Recommended Sanitizing Solution:
The following solution is recommended when
sanitizing the blender jar and blades, and to
sanitize the inside of the ice hopper:
The sanitizing solution should consist of 1
tablespoon of household bleach per 1 gallon of
clean, cool water (60° F, 16° C) mixed according to
the instructions on the bleach. When using a
sanitizing solution other than that recommended,
the sanitizing solution concentration should be
tested using commercially available test strips
and should indicate a concentration between
100 and 200 parts per million of bleach to water.

5. Rinse the ice chute, the agitator assembly and
inner hopper in sanitizing solution, and allow to
air dry. Wipe the shaving pool, shaver blade, and
ice deflector with a clean, soft cloth dampenend
with sanitizing solution (see Recommended

6. Once all parts are dry, slide the agitator assembly
carefully back into place and secure with the
thumbscrew. Align the bosses on inner hopper
with the matching holes in the ice hopper and
press gently down into place. Ensure that the
interlock is correctly aligned. Reinstall the ice
chute by sliding it back until it clicks into place.
