22. Keep hands and foreign objects out of the fountain while it is running. Regularly
check the Bowl to make sure that it is clear of chunks of fruit, etc. as they will
clog the base of the Tower and the chocolate will not ow properly.

PARTS & ASSEMBLY

Your MINI CHOCOLATE FONDUE FOUNTAIN requires little assembly. Prior to use, wipe out
Bowl with a damp cloth and dry. Wash Auger and Tower in warm soapy water, rinse, then dry.

After cleaning, return Auger to Base. Make sure Auger is securely in place by aligning the
opening on the bottom of the Auger with the Base Pin. Do not attempt to place Auger or
Tower on Base or remove from Base while the motor is running. Make sure the Tower is tted
on the posts in the Base properly.

HOW TO OPERATE

• First, nd a stable surface near an electrical outlet before starting. Unit must be level
to operate properly and to create the desired owing eect. Make sure your cord is
away from any water source. If needed, it is acceptable to use an extension cord.

• Turn the HEAT switch on the right to the ON position to start the heater
on the MINI CHOCOLATE FONDUE FOUNTAIN. Let the unit warm up
for at least 3 to 5 minutes before adding melted chocolate.

• While the machine is warming up, get a microwaveable bowl. Fill
bowl with 6 ounces of chocolate chips and 2 tablespoons of oil. If you
are using Belgian Chocolate, you do not need to add oil.

• Place in microwave for 1 minute. When done, stir chocolate. If necessary, continue to
warm chocolate in microwave until melting is complete (another 1 to 1½ minutes).

DO NOT heat chocolate over 110oF as warping of the towers may occur.

• Never add cool or cold liquids to the melted chocolate
in the fountain as this will stop the ow.

• Chocolate needs to be completely melted and of thin consistency to allow
proper ow. Use a large spoon to test the consistency of the chocolate. If the
chocolate drips too thickly from the spoon, add more oil to the mixture.

• Once the chocolate is completely melted and of proper consistency, turn
the motor switch on the MINI CHOCOLATE FONDUE FOUNTAIN to the ON
position, so the motor and the heater are running at the same time.

• Carefully pour the melted chocolate into the Bowl at the base of the
Tower. The melted chocolate should be drawn under the Tower and
carried up the Tower by the Auger. Chocolate should then begin to ow
from the top of the Tower and cascade evenly down each tier.

• The MINI CHOCOLATE FONDUE FOUNTAIN must be level to ensure
proper sheeting of the chocolate. Be careful not to drop pieces of
food into the Bowl. This will clog the ow of chocolate.
