6.Use the fondue forks packaged with the Fondue Pot to spear foods for dipping or cooking. To prevent scratching of the non-stick surface, use care when placing or swirling forks in pot. The handles of the forks feature different colored ends to help the user identify their own fork.

7.After serving, turn the heat control to “OFF” and unplug the cord from the electrical outlet. Allow the Fondue Pot and heat control to cool before cleaning. If the Fondue Pot must be moved before it has cooled, first remove the heat control using caution, as portions of the heat control may be hot. Use hot pads to move the Fondue Pot as the handles may be warm.

CLEANING YOUR FONDUE POT

Clean After Each Use: To keep the Fondue Pot looking attractive and cooking efficiently, clean it thoroughtly after each use.

Remove Heat Control: With the heat control set at “OFF,” unplug the cord from the electrical outlet and allow to cool. If the heat control must be removed prior to cooling, remove the heat control using caution, as portions of the heat control may be hot.

Let The Fondue Pot Cool By Itself - After using the Fondue Pot, always allow it to cool completely by itself. Do not hasten cooling by adding cold water or immersing in water when hot. Although made of thick aluminum, a sudden change in temperature may cause the metal to warp. Always allow hot oil or liquid to cool completely before removing from the Fondue Pot.

In-the-Sink Cleaning

1.Clean the non-stick interior and outside of the Fondue Pot in warm, soapy water using a non-metal cleaning pad. A dishcloth or sponge may give the non-stick surface a clean look, but will not remove the tiny food particles that can settle into the finish. Do not use metal scouring pads or harsh scouring cleansers on the nonstick surface or outside of the pot. If staining occurs on the outside of the pot, scour with a non-abrasive cleanser.

2.Wash fondue forks, fork ring and glass cover, if included, in warm, soapy water with a dishcloth or sponge, rinse and dry thoroughly. The ends of the forks are sharp, exercise care when washing them. Do not use any abrasive metal scouring pads or cleansers on the glass cover or fork ring as damage can occur. After washing, rinse and dry thoroughly. Note: Do not use abrasive scouring pads or cleansers on glass cover as scratching can occur. Check the Fondue Pot for loose handles after cleaning. Retighten loose screws immediately with the appropriate screwdriver, but do not over tighten. Over tightening can result in stripping of screws or cracking of handles and handle failure.
