Before Using The First Time:
With heat control removed, wash the Fondue Pot,
forks, fork ring or glass cover (if included) in hot soapy water. Exercise care when
washing forks, as the ends are sharp. Rinse parts and dry. NOTE: Do not use any
abrasive scouring pads or cleansers on these parts.
Condition Non-Stick Interior:
The non-stick interior surface of Fondue Pot must be
conditioned to ensure stick-free cooking. Lightly wipe a teaspoon of cooking oil over
the entire surface with paper toweling or a soft cloth. Allow a light film of oil to
remain on the surface. Do not use shortening, butter or margarine to condition non-
stick surface. The Fondue Pot is now ready to use.
•
Do not strike utensils against cover rim. Glass cover may shatter as a
result.
1. Place Fondue Pot on a dry, level, heat-resistant surface, away from any edge.
Do not block airflow under Fondue Pot. If Fondue Pot is used on a surface that
is not heat-resistant, such as a varnished, veneer or plastic surface, place the
Pot on a heat resistant tray or board to protect the surface below. Make sure
Pot rests level. Be sure hands are dry when using the Fondue Pot. Your Fondue
Pot comes with rubber feet. To ensure proper operation and safety, make sure
all feet are present and fully clean before each use. Do not use if any feet are
missing.
2. Attach heat control to Fondue Pot; making sure it is set at OFF. Plug cord into a
120 volt AC electrical outlet ONLY.
3. Follow recipe as directed. If recipe calls for preheating, the signal light on heat
control will go out when the cooking temperature is reached. The signal light will
turn on and off to indicate that the proper temperature is being maintained.
4. To prevent scratching of the non-stick plastic, rubber or wooden tools are
recommended for stirring foods in the preparation of dessert or cheese fondue.
Do not use any sharp edged metal cooking tools on the non-stick surface as
scratching can occur. Use smooth edged metal cooking tools when adding oil to
fondue.
5. If fork ring is included, place on top edge of pot, making sure it is secured in
place. Use to hold forks in slots while cooking. This is especially handy when
using oil to cook foods.
6. Use fondue forks packaged with 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 user identify own fork.
