ENVIRONMENT

Protection of the environment – DIRECTIVE 2012/19/EU

In order to protect our environment and our health, electrical

units at the end of their working lives must be disposed of according to very specific rules requiring the involvement of everyone, both suppliers and users.

That is why your unit, as indicated by the symbol on its nameplate, must not be put into a public or private garbage can intended for household wastes.

At the time of its disposal, it is your responsibility to bring your unit to a public collection center designated for the recycling of electrical and electronic equipment. If you need information about centers for the collection and recycling of discarded units, please contact the local authorities in your region, the household waste collection services or the store where you bought your unit.

STARTING AND USE

FIRST USE

* As you unwrap your unit, make sure that you carefully remove allof the packing elements and all of the bags and packaging labels.
* Make sure that all of the parts and accessories are present and intact.
* A new unit can smoke and/or release odors during the first use. To limit this release of smoke and odors, it is recommended that you let the unit heat up for 10 minutes and then let it cool down for about 30 minutes.

USE OF THE UNIT

* Put your unit on a flat surface in the center of the table.
* Fully extend the cable and examine it carefully before using it.
* Plug the cord into a socket.

FONDUE BOURGUIGNONNE (THERMOSTAT 4-5)

* Carefully pour 1 liter of oil into the fondue pot. Make sure that the level of the oil remains between the two marks within the fondue pot.
* Install the fork holder on the fondue pot.
* Turn the thermostat adjustment button to position 5.
* It takes about 20 minutes to heat the oil to the right temperature.
* Spear the pieces of meat with the forks.
* Carefully dip the forks into the hot oil to avoid splashing.
* During cooking, adjust the temperature as a function of the quantity of meat being cooked.
* Never put water into the oil bath (risk of oil spattering).

FONDUE SAVOYARDE (THERMOSTAT 3-4)

* To save time, and for greater ease and safety, we recommend preparing the fondue in your kitchen, on a normal stove.
* As soon as your fondue is ready, put the fondue pot on the heating base.
* During cooking, adjust the temperature as a function of the quantity of cheese in the fondue pot.

NB: however, if you don't have other sources of heat, you can use your unit for the preparation of the fondue Savoyarde.

CHOCOLATE FONDUE (THERMOSTAT 2-3)

* Be careful to melt the chocolate at a low temperature in order to preserve its brilliance. If it is too hot, the chocolate can become grainy.

SUGGESTIONS

Adjusting the temperature:

* Adjust the temperature carefully depending on the number of guests and amount of food to be cooked.
* Avoid leaving your appliance turned up to the maximum temperature. It is easier to raise the temperature of the oil than to lower it.

Oil:

* Avoid using the same oil repeatedly as the oil quality degrades quickly.
* Never pour water into the oil while it is hot (risk of oil spatters).

UPKEEP

IMPORTANT: Always unplug appliance and allow to cool completely before cleaning. Never submerse the appliance in water. Never use oven cleaners or other stripping products.

*Cleaning the Prestige fondue pot (ceramic coating):

Wash the inside and the outside with hot water and dishwashing liquid using a non-abrasive sponge.

Do not put in the dishwasher, because this could damage the product.

If cheese or other residues adhere, we recommend soaking the fondue pot with a little dishwashing liquid.

*Cleaning the Prestige fondue pot (stainless steel):

Clean the inside and the outside with hot water and dishwashing liquid using a non-abrasive sponge.

Do not put in the dishwasher, because this could damage the product.

Helpful tip (applies to all stainless steel pans):

If cheese or other residues adhere, we recommend soaking the fondue pot with a little bicarbonate of soda or distilled white vinegar. This will help keep your fondue pot shiny.

*Cleaning the Prestige fondue forks (wooden handles):

Wash them with hot water and dishwashing liquid then rinse them.

Do not soak them or put them in the dish washer because this can damage the wood.

*Cleaning of the fork holder:

You can put the fork holder in the dish washer.

*Cleaning of the base:

Clean with a sponge or a slightly moist cloth.
