FONDUE
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
This electrical fondue pan has an adjustable temperature setting and is therefore ideal for all kinds of
fondue dishes, such as the traditional meat fondue as well as cheese, Chinese and chocolate fondues.
• Clean the appliance thoroughly before use in hot water with a squirt of detergent. Make sure the
electrical parts do not come into contact with water.
• Rinse with clean water and dry the appliance carefully.
• Always use oil that is suitable for heating to high temperatures and replace the oil after each use. The
oil level should always be between the upper and lower level indicators. (max. 1.1 l, min. 0.8 l).
• The level indicators also apply if bouillon, cheese or chocolate is used instead of oil.
• Place the fondue ring on the fondue pan to prevent the oil from spattering.
• Place the fondue pan in the middle of the table.
• For safety purposes, attach the flex to the table (see illustration). Do not forget to detach the flex
before moving the pan.
• Set the temperature to 170°C for a traditional meat fondue. Adjust the temperature so that the mixture
is just simmering. For cheese, Chinese and chocolate fondues, the thermostat should have a lower
setting; for example 90°C.
• Cheese and chocolate in particular should be heated up gradually, otherwise the mixture will stick. Stir
occasionally to obtain a smooth mixture.
• The light will go out when the desired temperature has been reached.
• Unplug the appliance after use and let the pan cool down.
• Store the fondue pan with closed cover in a dry, dark place.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
NEVER IMMERSE THE APPLIANCE IN WATER. REMOVE THE PLUG FROM THE ELECTRICAL SOCKET.
Cleaning the outside
Clean the outside of the appliance regularly with a damp cloth and dry it with a soft, clean cloth.
Cleaning the inside
When replacing the oil, bouillon, cheese or chocolate, you can clean the inside of the appliance at the
same time. Empty the pan and clean the inside first with kitchen paper and then with a damp cloth
dipped in soapy water. Rinse the inside thoroughly with clean water to remove all traces of soap and
then allow to dry properly.
Cleaning tip: Put a cup of water and a small squirt of detergent in the pan. Set the appliance to the
lowest setting and switch it on for about 10 minutes. Switch it off again and then rinse thoroughly.

Lid
These parts can be washed in warm, soapy water. Do not use any abrasive cleaners, and rinse and dry
well before using again. These parts are not dishwasher safe.
REPLACING THE OIL
For fondues, we recommend replacing the oil after each use. Oil for deep- frying can be used several
times.
For good frying and fondue oil, the length of time the oil can be used depends on:
• How often the pan is used.
• How long the pan is used for.
• The temperature during use.
• The quantity of food (large quantities of food cause the oil to cool off too much).
• The nature of the food (e.g. spices used).
