USER MANUAL Lets Cook Deluxe 172661 PRINCESS

General information This attractive fondue set has been designed by Jan des Bouvrie. This appliance cannot only be used for tasty fondues, it is also pleasing to look at. The heating base, the pot and the forks have a modern design. The Jan des Bouvrie Fondue comes with eight fondue forks, so that you can enjoy it with your family and friends. The Jan des Bouvrie Fondue has a handy ring in which five sauce bowls can be placed. The ring can be rotated, so that the sauce of your choice is easy to reach. The heat radiation from the fondue pot keeps the sauces in the ring warm. The temperature-control dial makes the fondue pot suitable for different types of fondue, such as the classic meat fondue, a cheese fondue, a chocolate fondue or a Chinese fondue (with stock). Operation and controls See Figure 1. The equipment consists of the following parts: 1 Fondue pot 2 Cover with hand grip 3 Fondue ring 4 Fondue pot handle 5 Heating base 6 Ring for sauce bowls 7 Sauce bowls 8 Fondue forks 9 Temperature-control dial 10 On/Off indicator light 11 Indicator light, temperature 12 Power cord and plug 13 Cord storage system Before first use 1 Remove all the packaging materials and stickers from the appliance. 2 Clean the appliance and all accessories (see ‘Cleaning and maintenance’), and dry them thoroughly. 3 Put the heating base on a stable surface. 4 Place the ring for the sauce bowls, together with the sauce bowls, on the heating base if you wish to enjoy warm sauces with your fondue. You can also use the Jan des Bouvrie Fondue without the ring and the sauce bowls.

• The heat radiation from the fondue pot will heat the sauce bowls that have been placed in the ring. Sauces that are to be served cold should be placed on the table.

• The ring with the sauce bowls will become hot. The ring must, therefore, be rotated by holding the plastic edge and not the metal ring itself. See Figure 2.

• The sauce bowls can become hot when the appliance is in use. 5 Place the fondue pot in the middle of the heating base. 6 Place the fondue ring in the fondue pot. Heating oil or stock 1 Choose an oil that is suitable for use with a fondue (this will be stated on the packaging).

• Do not use oil that is not suitable for use with a fondue. The oil may spit and cause burns. 2 Fill the fondue pot with oil or stock. Make sure the pot is filled above the minimum level (Min.) and below the maximum level (Max.). 3 Put the plug in the wall socket. The red indicator light will be lit to indicate that the appliance has been turned on.

• NEVER place the lid on the appliance when the appliance is warming up nor whilst fonduing. 5 Whilst heating the liquid, stir the pot every now and then so that the liquid is slowly heated. 6 The light will go out once the desired temperature has been reached. You can now start to fondue. Heating cheese or chocolate 1 Select a recipe for cheese or chocolate fondue. 2 Put the plug in the wall socket. The red indicator light will be lit to indicate that the appliance has been turned on. 3 Prepare the mixture for the fondue according to the recipe. 4 Rotate the temperature-control dial to the desired setting.

You can now start to fondue. Fondue 1 Prick a piece of food onto the fondue fork. 2 Place the fork in the heated mixture. If using oil or stock, allow the piece of food to cook by resting the fork on the fondue ring. If using cheese or chocolate, you only have to dip the piece of food in the fondue.
