GETTING READY FOR USE

WARNING
– For operation always place the appliance on a stable, level, heat-
resistant surface. During operation, do not place any clothes or napkins or any other
foreign objects under, beneath or on the appliance or fondue pot or in the raclette
level. Do not place the appliance on or closely near any power cord. Do not place
any objects that are sensitive to heat, moisture, or fat near the appliance. Do not ope-
rate the appliance near any objects that could easily catch fire (e.g. curtains,
candles, inflammable liquids, high-proof alcoholic drinks, or mineralized spirit).
1. Place the appliance on a suitable surface near an appropriate wall power out-
let (see: 'Important Safeguards'). At each side of the appliance, leave at least
50 cm of free space to walls, curtains, boards and other objects. Ensure good
ventilation.
2. Ensure that there are no foreign objects in the raclette level or fondue pot. If you
do not wish to use the fondue pot, take out the fondue pot or fill it with approx.
250 ml water.
CAUTION – When using the fondue pot, ensure that there are ALWAYS at
least 150 ml of liquid in the fondue pot to avoid overheating. Keep in mind that
the filling level will drop gently during use, even if the fondue function is not in use.
However, it is good advice to leave the fondue pot within the appliance for pro-
tecting the fondue plate against splashes.
The grilling plate must be installed properly, even when it is not in use.
3. Ensure that the grilling plate is installed properly on the grilling plate power
socket and grilling plate support and will not tilt or wobble.
4. Turn both control dials counter-clockwise to the stop.
5. Insert the power plug into the power outlet. A beep sounds. The LCD display illu-
minates shortly and then gets dark again. The appliance is ready for use, now.

PREPARING FONDUE

WARNING – While the fondue pot is filled with hot liquid, ensure to hold the
fondue pot level and grasp the fondue pot at both handles. Additionally keep
the lid closed, if possible—especially when the contents is hot. Otherwise, the
content could run out, causing high risk of severe burns and damage.
Only use the supplied fondue pot with the appliance. Do not pre-heat the fondue pot
with any other heating device. The fondue pot is not suited for frying and steaming.

When placing the fondue pot on the fondue plate, always ensure that the fondue
pot is filled with a sufficient amount of liquid to avoid overheating (at least 150 ml).
Do not overfill the fondue pot, especially when heating food that may violently froth
or splash (e.g. hot oil or heavy sauces). When dipping food in hot sauces, oil and
dips, the contents of the fondue pot could violently froth and splash. For preparing
fondue with oil and oily dips: Do not fill in more than 500 ml. Dab wet food dry
and defrost frozen food, before dipping.
Ensure not to spill or pour liquid on the appliance. If large amounts of liquid ran out
and into the appliance, immediately turn both control dials counter-clockwise to the
stop, unplug and leave the appliance cool down completely. Thereafter, dry and
clean the appliance (see: 'Care and Cleaning'). DO NOT attempt to wipe liquids
spilled in the raclette level during operation or while the appliance is still hot to
avoid severe burns and risk of electric shock!
Beware of hot condensate, splashes and steam, when opening the lid. Always keep
a sufficient distance to the grilling plate with your hands, arms, and face, even if the
grilling plate is not in use. Beware of splashing condensate, juices, and fat, when
using the fondue and grilling function at the same time. If required, protect your
hands, arms, and valuable clothes with suitable oven gloves.
Do not place any too large pieces of food in the fondue pot that may be overhan-
ging the rim.
1. Prepare your food: Remove any inedible parts and cut the food in cubes or
strips, 2 cm in size. If required, defrost frozen ingredients and dab wet food dry
before cooking.
2. Fill the requested ingredients with a sufficient amount of liquid in the fondue pot
up to the maximum capacity of 1,3 litres or approx. 1/2 litre when preparing
fondue with oil or oily sauces.
3. Insert the folks holder inset into the fondue pot and put on the lid. Closing the
fondue pot with the lid will save energy and the contents of the fondue pot will
heat up faster.
4. Prepare the appliance for operation (see: 'Getting Ready for Use'). Even if you
do not wish to use the grilling plate, ensure that the grilling plate is mounted cor-
rectly on the appliance.
5. Place the fondue pot on the fondue plate within the opening in the middle of the
grilling plate.
6. Turn the fondue control dial (left control dial) clockwise until the desired tempera-
ture is shown on the LCD display (see: 'Tips for Best Results'). The fondue plate
starts heating immediately.
