cord do not come in contact with
sources of heat.
• Make sure that the power cord and plug do
not come into contact with water.
• The appliance needs space to allow heat
to escape, thereby avoiding the risk of fire.
Make sure that the appliance has sufficient
space around it, and does not come in con-
tact with flammable materials. The appliance
must not be covered.
General information
Thanks to the adjustable temperature the
fondue pot is highly suitable for various types
of fondue, such as the classic meat fondue, as
well as cheese fondue, a chocolate fondue or
a Chinese fondue (with stock). Fill the pot with
the desired ingredients and switch it on. The
red light will go on and off, as the thermostat
regulates the temperature. For classic meat
fondue set the thermostat at the maximum
temperature; cheese, stock and chocolate fon-
due requires a somewhat lower temperature.
Set the temperature so that the mixture will not
boil. Cheese and chocolate in particular should
be heated up slowly to prevent it from boiling
over. Stir once in a while to obtain
a smooth texture. The following types of oil
are suitable for fondue: corn oil, peanut oil,
sunflower oil, and deep-frying oil. Check on
the packaging to see whether or not the oil is
suitable for fondue. This is important, as some
oils are not suitable and may spatter if used
for fondue. Remove the plug from the socket
when the heating base is not in use.
Before using for the first time
• Read the user’s instructions carefully, and
retain them for reference
• Always place the pot on a sturdy table or
other stable surface.
• Never put the appliance on a (hot) hob.
• Never move the pot whilst it is still hot.
• Avoid the use of metal utensils whenever
possible; this will reduce the risk of damage
to the non-stick coating.
• This pot is finished with a non- stick coating.
On heating this coating may release small
amounts of gases which are totally harmless
for people and most house pets. However,
this is not the case for house birds, which
are extremely sensitive to these gases. Con-
sequently it is recommended that you avoid
using this appliance in the immediate vicinity
of birds.
Use
1. Lightly grease the non-stick coating with a
little oil.
2. Fit the thermostat plug to the appliance, and
put the plug in a wall socket.
3. Adjust the thermostat dial to the required
setting. The appliance will reach the set
temperature after about 10 minutes. You can
prepare the ingredients while you wait. Dur-
ing use the temperature indicator light will
illuminate and extinguish as the thermostat
maintains the appliance at the
set temperature.
4. When you have finished using the appliance
remove the plug from the wall socket, and
allow it to cool.
5. Allow the appliance to cool down completely
before you remove the thermostat plug,
since the temperature sensor on the ther-
mostat plug (the central metal pin) becomes
very hot.
Frying times and temperatures
The frying time depends largely on the type
and thickness of the ingredients. You can
experiment with the time and temperature to
achieve the best results.
The thermostat is not calibrated in degrees
Celsius; it is marked with graduations from 1
through 5. This is because the actual tem-
perature at a given setting depends on a wide
range of factors, such as the ingredients in the
pot and the use of oil/ butter or water, etc. The
indicative temperatures for each setting are
given in the following table:

Cooking tips
Small pieces of meat, fish, etc., will be done
more rapidly, and will be cooked better than
larger pieces.
