5. Place the smallest chocolate plateau on the rising tube with the convex side facing upwards and push it
firmly. The shaft of the screw fits exactly in the opening in the plateau.
operAtion - chocolate to be used
You can use various types and flavours of chocolate with this chocolate fountain:
- Liquid chocolate (ready-to-use);
- Chocolate callets (liquefy by heating);
- Chocolate bars (break them into pieces first and liquefy them by heating).
operAtion - Heating the chocolate
The chocolate can be heated in a number of different ways.
• Heat in a microwave. This must be done carefully at a low wattage and under constant supervision,
otherwise the chocolate may burn.
• Heating au bain-marie. Make sure the bottom of the pan does not touch the bottom of the pan with water
in it, otherwise a burnt layer of chocolate may form.
• Heat in a pan. This is the quickest, but not the most ideal, method. Heating the chocolate in a pan may
produce burnt pieces of chocolate which can easily get scooped/poured into the chocolate fountain.
These peices may block the chocolate fountain. Therefore, be careful when using this method.
• Heating in the appliance. This is recommended. Although the melting time is longer than the other
methods given above, you know for sure that the chocolate will not burn and that it is at the correct
temperature for use. In this case, it is easier to fit the chocolate plateaus after the chocolate has melted,
because it is easier to stir without the plateaus fitted. If you melt solid chocolate in the appliance, assume
a melting time of approximately 15 to 30 minutes, depending on the quantity and size of the pieces of
chocolate.
Chocolate is available in various compositions. Some chocolate can be liquefied more easily than others,
depending on this composition. Add vegetable oil or sunflower oil to the chocolate to make it more fluid.
Start with a small quantity and add more as desired. Make sure you mix the oil well with the chocolate.
The oil does not affect the taste of the chocolate.
For 1.5 kg of milk chocolate, you must add approximately 250 ml of vegetable oil or sunflower oil for it to
be the correct texture. Using for the first time (filling with chocolate).
1. Insert the plug into the plug socket. The green indicator light will be lit to indicate that the power has been
turned on.
2. Press the button on the operating panel to test whether the screw rotates freely in the rising tube. Turn
off the appliance again.
3. Fill the chocolate fountain with no more than 1½ kg of liquid chocolate or solid chocolate that has been
broken/cut into pieces and that is suitable for melting.
4. Press the button . The red indicator light will be lit to show that the heating element has been switched
on. The red indicator light will remain on, even once the desired temperature has been reached. Wait
until the chocolate has become sufficiently liquefied.
5. Press the button
chocolate will now rise and flow over the three chocolate plateaus into the bowl.
Liquefy the chocolate before turning on the screw, otherwise the motor may get stuck. When using liquid
chocolate, the motor can be turned on immediately.
operAtion - fondue
You can use the fondue forks to dip almost anything into the warm chocolate. What about fruit, long fingers,
small pancakes or biscuits? Everything tastes delicious when it has been covered in a layer of warm
chocolate.
1. If necessary, prick the food onto a fondue fork first. You will then not risk burning yourself on the hot
chocolate.
2. Dip the food into the liquid chocolate or hold it under the fountain.
. The yellow indicator light will be lit to indicate that the motor is running. The liquid
