LEVELING THE FOUNTAIN
In order for the fountain to operate properly and for the candy to ow over the tiers in a smooth curtain, the fountain must be situated rmly on a stable surface such as a counter or tabletop and then leveled precisely.
01. Upon placing the fountain on a stable surface, use a level or a ruler to determine if the fountain is level.
02. Turn the adjustable feet (located underneath the base at the front of the fountain) slightly clockwise to raise the fountain or counterclockwise to lower the fountain.
03. Continue to turn the knobs either clockwise or counterclockwise until the unit is level.
04. Following Instructions for Use, shown below, add the melted dipping candy and turn the fountain on.
05. Adjust the knobs clockwise or counterclockwise until the melted candy is owing smoothly and the candy forms a continuous curtain over the tiers.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
01. In a large microwave-safe bowl, melt 4 pounds of dipping candy according to package instructions. For best results, use ChocoMaker® Dipping Candy as this is specically formulated for use in fountains.
02. Press the HEAT button to start heating the unit. This will keep the dipping candy warm to ensure a consistent ow but will NOT melt unmelted dipping candy. Wearing oven mitts, pour melted dipping candy into fountain bowl.
Note: You will need at least 4 pounds of melted dipping candy in the fountain bowl before starting the fountain to ensure a consistent ow.
03. Press the FOUNTAIN button to start the fountain. The auger (inside the tower) will then pull the melted dipping candy from the bowl to the top of the tower, where it will begin to ow down the tiers and back into the fountain bowl. DO NOT press the FOUNTAIN button if dipping candy has hardened or is not fully melted. See Troubleshooting Guide on page 4 for additional information.
04. Level the fountain by adjusting the feet. This will help to achieve a perfectly smooth ow over the tiers. (See instructions on Leveling the Fountain above).
05. Once fountain is owing properly, dip desired food items into the melted dipping candy as it ows over the tiers. Melt and add additional dipping candy as needed.
Note: Do not bring dipping candy or candy-dipped items into contact with water, moisture or water-based products as dipping candy will immediately clump and become unusable.
06. When nished using your ChocoMaker® Chocolate Fountain, push the HEAT button to turn the heat o and the FOUNTAIN button to turn the fountain o. Unplug the fountain.
07. Clean immediately. See instructions of Cleaning the Fountain on page 4.
Note: DO NOT immerse fountain base in water.

CLEANING THE FOUNTAIN
Note: Do not allow dipping candy to harden in the fountain bowl
or on the fountain tiers, as cleaning will become very dicult.
01. Be sure fountain is turned o and unplugged from electrical outlet.
02. Carefully remove tower and auger from base. Separate the three tier pieces of the tower. Wash with mild soap and water. To clean the inside of tower, push a damp paper towel or thin dishcloth through the channel.
03. Pour excess dipping candy from the fountain bowl into a microwave-safe bowl for use later following instructions on dipping candy package, or into a trash receptacle. DO NOT pour excess dipping candy down the drain as dipping candy will harden and may cause plumbing problems.
04. Wash the inside of the fountain bowl with mild soap and water, being careful not to immerse fountain base in water, as the base houses the electrical unit and may become damaged if immersed in water.
05. Wipe down the outside of the base with a damp cloth.
06. Allow fountain base, tower and auger to air dry completely before next use.
07. Wipe unit with a soft, dry cloth once dry, to remove any water marks.
Note: Do not place fountain base or pieces in dishwasher. Do not use abrasive cleaners on fountain base or pieces.
TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
Push the FOUNTAIN button to turn the fountain o before beginning any of the following troubleshooting techniques!
Troubleshooting
• Be sure fountain is situated on a stable surface
and leveled according to instructions on page 3.
• Make sure dipping candy is completely melted and not burnt (burnt dipping candy may become lumpy).
• Be sure dipping candy is free of solid pieces of snacks.
• Be sure the correct amount of dipping candy is being used.
• Be sure HEAT button is on as dipping candy
will thicken upon standing.
• Be sure the correct amount of dipping candy is being used.
• The white lm is caused by a separation of the fat component
in the ingredients. Stir vigorously to diminish.
• Be sure HEAT button is on as dipping candy will thicken and fat will separate from the cocoa upon standing.

OTHER FONDUE OPTIONS
When Using Dipping Candy or Chocolate Other than ChocoMaker® Dipping Candy
We recommend the use of ChocoMaker® Dipping Candy for best results in the chocolate fountain, as it is specically formulated to ow through the fountain easily and smoothly; however, if you would prefer to use an alternate form of dipping candy or chocolate, please follow these instructions carefully.
01. Melt dipping candy or chocolate according to instructions on package.
02. Stir in ¼ cup vegetable shortening at a time. Almost every type of dipping candy or chocolate, other than ChocoMaker® Dipping Candy requires the addition of vegetable shortening or oil.
03. Pour melted dipping candy or chocolate into fountain and turn fountain on.
04. Continue adding vegetable shortening by the ¼ cup until dipping candy or chocolate has a consistent and smooth ow through fountain.
Types of chocolate you can use: Confectionery coating (candy wafers), semi-sweet chocolate baking bars or
blocks of chocolate that contain cocoa butter or oil.
Note: Hot fudge or chocolate syrup is NOT recommended. Do not use chocolate chips.
OTHER SWEET IDEAS
For best results, choose items that can easily be dipped and won’t crumble. Provide skewers or forks to dip soft items such as fruit.
Fresh strawberries Apple wedges Banana chunks Pear chunks Wafer cookies Macaroon cookies Sandwich cookies Tea biscuits Pretzels Caramel squares Marshmallows Pineapple
Note: Soak apples, bananas and pears in lemon juice for at least 30 minutes to prevent browning.
ADDITIONAL DIPPING IDEAS
Fudge Balls: Make desired recipe of peanut butter fudge. Use a melon baller to
form bite-size balls and freeze for 2 hours. Insert toothpicks into fudge balls for dipping.
Crispy Marshmallow Squares: Follow recipe on back of cereal package to make marshmallow rice cereal treats. Once treats are done, cut into bite-size squares and insert toothpicks into each square for dipping.
Mini Marshmallow Berry Skewers: Push 2 mini marshmallows, 2 blueberries and 2 raspberries onto just the end of a skewer. Arrange skewers inside of a vase or tall bowl for a festive treat.
