Instructions for safe operation

• This device must not be used by children aged between 0 and 8years. This device may be used by children aged 8 years or above, if they are permanently supervised. This device can be used by people with restricted physical, sensory or intellectual abilities or people without adequate experience and/or understanding if they are supervised or instructed on how to use this device safely and if they are aware of the resulting risks.

• Keep children under the age of 8 away from the device and the power cable.

• The cleaning and maintenance by the user may not be per- formed by children.

• Place the device in a stable position by using the handles, in or- der to prevent the hot liquid from spilling.

• Do not immerse the heating unit, the power cable or the mains plug in water or any other liquid.

• This device is equally intended for use in the home and in appli- cations similar to the home, such as for example... … in kitchens for employees in shops, offices and other commer- cial areas; … on agricultural estates; … by customers in hotels, motels and other residential facilities; … in bed-and-breakfast establishments.

• This device is not intended to be operated using an external timer clock or a separate remote control system.

• If the power cable of this device should become damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, the manufacturer's custom- er service department or a similarly qualified specialist, in order to avoid any hazards.

• Packing materials are not children's toys. Children should not be allowed to play with the plastic bags: there is a risk of suffocation. DANGER! Risk of electric shock due to moisture

• Protect the heating unit from moisture, dripping and splashing water.

• Do not use the device in the open air or near vessels filled with water, e.g. sinks.

• If the heating unit has fallen into water, remove the mains plug immediately, and only then remove the device from the water. Do not use the device again, and have it checked by a specialist.

• Never touch the heating unit with wet hands. DANGER! Risk of electric shock

• Do not use the device if the device or the power cable has any visible damage, or if the device has previously been dropped.

• Extension cables must be designed for a minimum of 10 ampere.

• Lay the power cable and any extension ca- ble such that nobody can step on them, get caught on them, or trip over them.

• Before connecting the device, check that the temperature controller is set to the "0" marking.

• Connect the mains plug only to a cor- rectly installed, easily accessible wall socket with an earthing contact with voltage corresponding to the rating plate. The wall socket must continue to be easily accessible after the device is plugged in.

• Ensure that the power cable cannot be damaged by sharp edges or hot points. Do not wind the power cable around the device but into the housing base of the heating unit.

• Even after it has been switched off, the device has not been completely discon- nected from the mains. In order to fully disconnect it, pull out the mains plug.

• When setting up the device, make sure that the power cable is not trapped or crushed.

• To pull the mains plug out of the wall socket, always pull on the mains plug, and never on the power cable.

• Disconnect the mains plug from the wall socket, … … if there is a fault, … when you are not using the device, … before you clean the device and … during thunderstorms.

• Do not connect another device with a high power consumption to a wall socket on the same circuit. This way you will avoid overloading the mains power supply.

• To avoid any risk, do not make modifica- tions to the product. DANGER! Risk of injury through burning!

• Danger to life from burns. Please ensure that children are not able to pull the de- vice down from the work surface with the power cable.

• Danger from explosive deflagration. Make sure you use fat that is fresh, clean and suitable for a fondue. Old, used or unsuitable fat may ignite even at low temperatures. Should the fat catch fire while using the fondue, do not try to extinguish it with water under any circumstances. Smother the fire with a saucepan lid of appropriate size or a woollen blanket.

• WARNING! Risk of burns caused by splashes of hot liquid when dipping food into the pot: dry food off before- hand and protect hands and forearms with oven gloves. __RP100109_B2.book Seite 35 Mittwoch, 14. Mai 2014 9:57 0936

• The stainless steel pot, splash guard and fondue forks become very hot when using the fondue. Make sure you protect your hands, e.g. with oven gloves, and only touch the fondue forks by the handles.

• To prevent it from overflowing during heating, the stainless steel pot should not be filled above the upper marking indicating the maximum filling level.

• Leave all parts to cool down fully before emptying, cleaning or moving the pot.

• Never move the heating unit while the stainless steel pot is standing on it. The stainless steel pot might slip off. DANGER! Risk of injury from cutting

• Do not eat directly from the fondue forks. They are very sharp. WARNING! Risk of material damage

• The stainless steel pot must be filled at least up to the lower marking indicating the minimum filling level, as less content can quickly overheat.

• Only use the original accessories.

• The device is fitted with non-slip rubber feet. As furniture is coated with various varnishes and plastics and may be treat- ed with different cleaning products, it cannot be completely ruled out that some of these substances contain com- ponents which may attack and soften the rubber feet. If necessary, place a non-slip mat under the device.

• Fat may splash out when the electric fondue is in operation. You should there- fore place the device on a surface that is resistant to both heat and grease.

• Do not pour liquid fat down the sink: when it cools, it may block the drains (see “Emptying the stainless steel pot” on page 38).

• Make sure that the surface under the de- vice is dry.

• Never place the heating unit on hot sur- faces (e.g. hot plates) or near sources of heat or open flame.

• Do not use any astringent or abrasive cleaning agents.

with a mild detergent and thoroughly dry all parts.

• Place the device on a dry, level, non-slip surface. This surface should also be heat-resistant and not be damaged by splashes of hot fat. NOTE: when in operation for the first time, some smoke and odour may be generated by the device. This is due to the assembly materials used for the heating element and is not a fault in the product. Ensure adequate ventilation. __RP100109_B2.book Seite 36 Mittwoch, 14. Mai 2014 9:57 0937

allows you to freely select a lower temperature after initially heating up the pot. This is advisable, for example, in order to keep the temperature of the contents at just below the boiling point.

4. Prick the dried pieces of food onto the

fondue forks8 and place them in the fat, broth or cheese.
