Frequently Asked Questions - FCH100 SIMEO

HOW TO OPERATE

1. Before first use, wipe down the HOT CHOCOLATE MAKER exterior with a clean, non-abrasive cloth or sponge. Thoroughly wash the interior of the Mixing Container with warm, sudsy water and a non-abrasive cloth or sponge. DO NOT immerse Mixing Container in water. Wash Dispensing Valve and Lid in warm, sudsy water and thoroughly dry. DO NOT put the Base in water.
2. Find a stable, waterproof surface near an electrical outlet before starting. Make sure the cord is away from any water source.
3. DO NOT place the HOT CHOCOLATE MAKER near the edge of a table or countertop.
4. Remove the Lid from the Mixing Container.
5. Pour 32 ounces of water or milk into the Mixing Container.

NOTE: Do not fill the Mixing Container past the "Max" fill line.

1. Add 8 to 14 tablespoons of your favorite instant drink mix, depending on whether using milk or water. (See SERVING GUIDE table below.)
2. Replace the Lid on the Mixing Container. Make sure the lid covers the pour spout. DO NOT operate without lid securely in place.
3. Plug the HOT CHOCOLATE MAKER into an outlet.
4. Turn the switch to the "HEAT/FROTH" position. The HOT CHOCALATE MAKER will begin to mix and heat.

NOTE: You may move the switch to the "OFF" position to turn the appliance off at any time. A full 32 ounces takes approximately 6-8 minutes to heat. DO NOT run on "HEAT/FROTH" for more than 15 minutes. This will cause milk to scald.

1. Once the beverage reaches your ideal temperature, turn the switch to the "FROTH" position. Place a cup under the Dispensing Valve press down on the valve. The beverage will mix while it dispenses so that a rich layer of froth is released into your cup along with the hot drink.
2. When the container has less than 1 cup of liquid remaining or is empty, press the "OFF" switch. Dispense any remaining liquid into a cup by pressing down on the Dispensing Valve. You may also pour the beverage out of the top of the Mixing Container by turning the lid clockwise so the "POUR" indicator is aligned with the spout.

The appliance will remain on until you switch it off.
