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
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
•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
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:
Thermostat | ˚C | ˚C |
setting | oil & dry frying | in water |
1 | 100 ºC | |
2 | 100 ºC | |
3 | 100 ºC | |
4 | 100 ºC | |
5 | 100 ºC |
Cooking tips
Small pieces of meat, fish, etc., will be done more rapidly, and will be cooked better than larger pieces.
