• This appliance is for household use only and NOT intended for use in moving vehicles. Do
not operate or store the appliance in humid or wet areas or outdoors. Do not attempt to operate
the appliance using any parts or accessories not recommended by the manufacturer to avoid
risk of overheating, fire, and/or electric shock.
• Check the entire appliance regularly for proper operation - especially the power cord. The
pins of the power plug must be clean, smooth, and without discolouration. Do not operate the
appliance, when the appliance or any part of it is likely to be damaged, to avoid risk of fire,
electric shock or any other damage and/or injuries to persons. The appliance is likely to be
damaged if the appliance was subject to inadmissible strain (e.g. overheating, mechanical

appliance and return the entire appliance (including all parts and accessories) to an authorised
service centre for examination and repair. Any use of accessories, attachments or spare parts
not recommended by the manufacturer may result in fire, electric shock and injuries to persons.
• Some foods and alcoholic drinks can catch fire, when overheated! During
operation keep the appliance in an appropriate distance of at least 30 cm on each side to furniture, walls, boards, curtains and other objects. Do not operate the appliance near inflammable
liquids (e.g. high-proof alcohol) or beneath any heat-sensitive or moisture-sensitive materials or
beneath boards or drop-lights to avoid damage caused by steam, condensate or fire. Before
operating, always ensure that there are no foreign objects in the raclette levels or the fondue
pot, and the grill plates are installed properly. Do not use wrapped foods (e.g. in kitchen foil),
to avoid risk of fire, electric shock, and damage. Immediately unplug the appliance, if there is
any kind of malfunction or problem (e.g. overheating, giving off smoke).
• This appliance is NOT intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have
been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible
for their safety. Close supervision is necessary when the appliance is used near
young children. Do not let young children play with any parts of the appliance
or the packaging. The appliance is not intended for use by children or infirm persons wit-
hout supervision. Do not leave the appliance unattended, when it is in reach of young children.
Always keep the entire appliance dry and clean and where young children cannot reach it. Do
not place any hard and/or heavy objects on the appliance or any part of it. Take care that no
one will pull the appliance by the power cord.
• Operate the appliance on a well accessible, stable, level, dry, heat-resistant and suitable
large table or counter. Do not place any clothes or tissue or other objects beneath or on the
appliance during operation, to avoid risk of fire, electric shock and overheating. Always keep
the appliance and the table or counter clean and dry, and wipe off spilled liquids. Provide

• Do not place the appliance on or near heat-sensitive objects (e.g. power cords, table clothes,
napkins), or near the edge of the table or counter or on wet or inclined surfaces or where it
can fall.
24
• Do not place any foreign objects (e.g. clothes, pots) on or in the appliance. Do not leave
any cooking utensils on the grill plates or in the fondue pot. Do not use any hard, sharp
or edged objects (e.g. knives, fondue forks) on the grill plates. Only use cooking
utensils made of heat-resistant plastic or wood with the grill plates. Do not handle the appliance
or any part of it with violence.
• The appliance is heated by built-in electric heating elements. The appliance or power
cord may never touch hot surfaces. Do not place the appliance or any part of it on
or near hot surfaces (i.e. burner, heater or oven). Do not use the accessories of the appliance
(fondue pot, raclette dishes, fondue forks, grill shovel) with any other heated device (e.g. range).
Do not place any heat-sensitive or inflammable objects (i.e. charcoal, paper, plastics, clothes)
or inflammable liquids on or near the appliance during operation! Do not touch the grill plates
immediately after switching off, because the appliance will be still hot for some time.
• Do not leave the appliance unattended, when connected to the power sup-
ply. Do not move or tilt the appliance during operation or immediately thereafter, to avoid
spilling of hot fat and juices causing injuries and damage. Always turn both heating control
dials to the left OFF position “–“, and unplug the appliance when not in use and before moving,
removing a grill plate or cleaning, or for storage. Before disassembling a grill plate, and/or
moving or cleaning the appliance, always allow the appliance to cool down sufficiently. Always
grasp the appliance on its base with both hands for moving or lifting the appliance. During
operation and immediately after switching off only touch the appliance and its
accessories by the handles and operating elements.
• Before operation, always ensure that you assembled the appliance completely and correctly
and the grill plates are properly in place. During operation, always ensure that there is some
liquid (oil, water, bouillon) in the fondue pot, to avoid overheating. Do not operate the appliance without the grill plates properly in place.
• Do not use abrasive cleaners, cleaning pads or any hard and sharp objects (e.g. metal
scouring pads) for cleaning. Do not immerse the appliance, grill plates or power cord in water
or any other liquid. Do not spill or drip any liquids on the appliance or power cord to avoid
risk of fire and electric shock. When liquids are spilled in the appliance, immediately switch
OFF the heating control dials, unplug the power cord and wait for the appliance to cool down.
Thereafter, clean the appliance thoroughly. (See: “Care and Cleaning“).
• DO NOT place the appliance or any part of it in an automatic dishwasher.
• Do not leave any food dry on the appliance. Always clean the appliance after each use to
prevent a build up of baked-on foods (see: „Care and Cleaning“). Do not process any foodstuffs
that are probably off. Always keep the appliance and the accessories clean.
• Handle the fondue forks with care, because the tips are pointed.
• Never operate the appliance via time switch or other remote control devices.
• This appliance is intended to be used in household and similar applications such as:
– staff kitchen areas in shops, offices and other working environments;
– farm houses;
– by clients in hotels, motels and other residential type environments;
– bed and breakfast type environments.
Important Safeguards for Electrical Appliances
The appliance is heated electrically. Place the appliance near a suitable wall power socket to
connect the appliance directly to a protected mains power supply with protective conductor
(earth/ground) connected properly. Ensure that the voltage rating of your mains power supply
corresponds to the voltage requirements of the appliance (230 V, 50 Hz, AC, rated for 15 A).
25
The installation of a residual current operated circuit breaker (r.c.c.b.) with a maximum rated
residual operating current of 30 mA in the supplying electrical circuit is strongly recommended.
If in doubt, contact your electrician for further information.
In various foreign countries, the specifications for power supplies are subject to incompatible
norms. Therefore it is possible that power supplies in foreign countries do not meat the requirements for safe operation of the appliance. Thus, before operating the appliance abroad, ensure
that safe operation is possible.
• It is recommended not to use any extension cords. Nevertheless, if you wish to use an extension cord, it must be connected properly with live, neutral and protective ground conductor and
a permanent loading range of at least 15 A (core diameter: at least 1 mm
2
). Do not use a
multi socket outlet.
• Always handle the power cord with care. Always completely unwind the power cord before
use. Do not place the appliance on or near a power cord. Power cords may never be knotted,
twisted, pulled, strained or squeezed. Do not let the plug or power cord hang over the edge of
the table or counter. If necessary, use a rope to tie the extension cord to the table-leg to avoid,
that the appliance will be pulled by the power cord. Take care not to entangle in the power
cord. Always grasp the plug to disconnect the power cord from the power outlet. Do not touch
the power plug, with wet hands when the appliance is connected to the power supply.
• Do not place or immerse the appliance, the grill plates, or the power cord in water or any
other liquid. Do not spill or drip any liquids on the power cord or exterior of the appliance.
When liquids are spilled on the appliance or power cord, immediately switch OFF and unplug
the appliance.
Hot Surfaces – Risk of Burns
The raclette is designed for cooking and heating a variety of foods and, therefore, the whole
appliance will get hot during operation.
• Beware of steam and hot condensate, as well as splashing hot fat and meat juices during
operation and even some minutes after switching off, especially when removing the fondue pot
and/or opening the lid of the fondue pot. Take care that persons present maintain a sufficient
distance from the hot grill plates with hands, arms, face and clothes during operation. Do not
place any sensitive objects directly near the appliance.
• During operation only touch the appliance and its accessories at the operating components
and handles (e.g. heating control dial, handles of fondue pot / raclette dishes). On the interior
of the lid of the fondue pot, condensate could accumulate and splash violently, when dripped
on the hot grill plates. During operation, protect your hands, arms, and valuable clothes (e.g.
with oven gloves) when making a reach for the fondue pot.
• Do not overfill the fondue pot or raclette dishes, especially when heating food-
stuffs that could violently froth or splash. Do not place any too large pieces of food,
overhanging the edges, on the grill plates or in the fondue pot. Otherwise hot fat, water or meat
juice could overflow and cause severe scalds and damage. Especially when preparing fondue
with oil, do not dip wet or frozen ingredients in hot oil, to avoid splashes and boiling over.
• To avoid damage and risk of fire: Do not place any heat-sensitive or inflammable objects
(i.e. charcoal, paper, plastic, clothes) or inflammable liquids on or near the appliance during
operation!
Do not place hot drinks with high alcoholic content (i.e. mulled wine, grog) on or near the appliance if the appliance is still hot. Alcohol is highly volatile and the vapour is easy inflammable
and could catch fire by any source of ignition (i.e. cigarette, candle, heating elements of the
appliance) and therefore causing severe injuries to persons and damage.
