NOTE:

A small amount of smoke is normal. Please ensure that

there is adequate ventilation.

Useful hints for use

• Always remove the food remaining in the oil. Change

the oil after using it 8-10 times Always remove the

food remaining in the oil. Change the oil after using

it 8-10 times.

• Deep frying fat must be capable of being heated

to high temperatures. Use high quality frying oil or

frying grease. Do not use margarine, olive oil or but-

ter: they are not fi t for frying, because they start to

smoke already at low temperatures.

• We recommend the use of liquid frying oil.

NOTE...

... if you would like to use fat!

• If you use fat, please divide it up into small pieces.

• Turn the thermostat to a low temperature and add

the pieces slowly.

• Once the fat has melted and the correct oil level is

reached you can set the desired temperature on the

thermostat.

• Rub dry humid foods with a cloth before frying.

Mains Lead

Unwind the required length of mains lead from the bot-

tom section or the heating base.

Rotating Base

to one side of the rotating base fi rst under the main

base. Then pull the ring over the hot plate and clamp it

underneath.

After use you can save space when you store the rotating

basis by folding the holders back inwards.

Initial Operation of the Fondue Set

Please select a suitable non-slip base on which to place

your fondue.

• Insert the rotating base as described above. Then

insert the sauce vessels into the holders.

• Place the fondue equipment on the heating stand.

• Fill the pot with fat or oil (min. 0.5 l to max. 1.0 l).

The most suitable types of oil are frying oils or veg-

Fold out the individual

holders so that they are

horizontal. The round

distance pieces face

downwards and subse-

quently lie on the heating

stand. Clamp one of the

„lugs" (see illustration) on

etable oil. Place the upper section on the fondue pot

so that it is correctly positioned.

• Only connect the machine to a properly installed

230 V, 50 Hz safety socket.

• Turn the device to the medium temperature range

and heat up the oil for some time. The control lamp

lights up and indicates that the device is switched on.

• With a wooden stick (e.g. shashlik spit or wooden

cooking spoon) you can test whether the correct

temperature has been reached. When this is inserted

into the oil, small air bubbles should rise up along the

wooden stick. Alternatively, you can place a piece of

the food to be fried into the hot oil.

• Place the pieces of meat on the fondue forks and

then dip them into the oil. Depending on the size of

the meat pieces, the cooking process takes between 4

and 7 minutes, i.e. the smaller the pieces of meat or

other food are, the faster they are cooked.

• Adjust the temperature with the regulator such that

the oil simmers.

Switching Off

If you would like to stop the cooking process, turn the

temperature control to the minimum setting (MIN) and

remove the mains plug from the socket. Allow the frying

oil a considerable time to cool down. Before continu-

ing to use the full frying pot, please ensure that it is no

longer at a dangerous temperature.

Mains Lead Take-up Device

Wind the mains lead up again on the underside of the

heating stand.
