GETTING STARTED
The CHOCLATE FOUNTAIN requires little assembly and is easy to use. It comes in three separate parts: a base and bowl, a three stainless steel tower and a plastic Screw, which rotates the tower and moves the chocolate from the base to the top of the tower.
Before first use
- Remove all packaging materials. Wipe out the base bowl with a warm, damp cloth and dry it thoroughly. Wash the plastic screw and the stainless steel tower in warm, soapy water, rinse and when dry.
- After cleaning, return the plastic screw to the base: align the groove on the bottom of the screw with the motor base pin and push it securely in place. Then fit the tower over of the plastic screw, making sure it fits properly over the three posts in the base.
Caution: Make sure the appliance is switched off and disconnected from the power supply during assembly and disassembly.
OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
Once you have chosen your chocolate, follow the instructions below:
- Find a stable, level surface near an electrical outlet before starting. It is important for the unit to be level to create the desired flowing effect.
- Plug in the unit and check that it works. Turn the switch to the HEAT MOTOOR position, the plastic screw should start turning and the heater should start warming the base. Once this is done, return the switch to the OFF position.
- Melt your chocolate, prepare a chocolate fondue mixture in a microwave oven or on the stove top. See page 10 for some recipe suggestions.
- Turn the switch on the chocolate fountain to the HEAT position for base to start warming up. The indicator light comes on. Heating the base for a few minutes is important so the chocolate will not set to the base.
- Pour melted chocolate into the bowl at the base of the unit. Fill up to just below the rim. Turn the switch to the HEAT MOTOR position. Watch the chocolate get pulled up by the rotating plastic screw and then flow down the three fountain tiers.
- Let the unit flow for two minutes, and then turn the motor off for 30 seconds to eliminate any air gap that could affect the smooth flow of chocolate. Make sure the unit is level before turning the motor back on.
- If the flow is not good, add two tablespoons of Canola or Vegetable oil to thin the chocolate sightly. You should now have a nicely cascading chocolate fountain.
WARNING:
- Never add hard chocolate piecies to a fountain while the motor is running. Only use melted, smooth chocolate.
- Never add cold liquid to the chocolate, as it may stop the flow of chocolate. Only add warmed fluids.
- Always check to make sure no chunks of food are in the base, as it may clog the flow of chocolate. Remove then with a spoon.
- This appliance becomes hot during operation. Handle with care so you do not burn yourself
Your unit will work with any chocolate. However, the best chocolate to use is chocolate that is high in cocoa butter, such as pure Belgian chocolate. Chocolate low in cocoa butter will need oil to make it flow properly. The types of oil you can use are:
- Canola oil
- Vegetable oil
CLEANING AND CARE
- Make sure the unit is disconnected from the power supply and has sufficiently cooled down before cleaning.
- Remove the plastic screw and stainless steel tower and wipe off any remaining chocolate with a paper towel. Soak both parts in warm, soapy water, wash, rinse and then dry them thoroughly.
- Do not pour excess or leftover chocolate down the drain. Pour leftovers into a plastic bag or disposable container and then put it in the garbage.
- Carefully pour out as much remaining chocolate from the base bowl as possible. Use a damp sponge, cloth or paper towel to do this. Then clean the outside of the unit and wipe it dry with a non-abrasive cloth. To prevent damage to the appliance do not use alkaline cleaning agents when cleaning.
WARNING! To protect against fire and electric shock, do not immerse the base, cord or plug in water or other liquid.
