CAUTION: BEFORE OPERATING FONDUE SET, CAREFULLY
READ THE USE AND CARE INSTRUCTIONS.
1.
This modern fondue can be used with liquid chafing fuel,
(denatured alcohol) or gel chafing fuel. Never mix liquid and gel chafing
fuels.
2.
Never use the fondue pot in a microwave.
3.
Use only matches to light the chafing fuel. Never use a lighter or other
ignition devices.
4.
Always store the fondue set, chafing fuels, and matches in a
child-safe place.
5.
Always operate the fondue set on a stable and level flat surface, such as a
table.
6.
To help prevent damage to furniture and countertops, always place the
fondue set on a heat-resistant surface, such as a trivet or the wooden base
provided.
7.
Before using the fondue set, always make sure the pot fits securely on the
stand.
8.
Always secure the splatter shield to the fondue pot before using the pot
with the ignited chafing fuel.
9.
Do not operate the fondue set with the burner vents fully open. After
lighting the burner, close the vents halfway before placing the fondue pot
on the stand. If the flames extend beyond the cooking surface of the pot,
rotate the burner handle counterclockwise to lower the flame height.
10. Do not move or tip the fondue set once the chafing fuel is ignited.
11. Never leave ignited fondue set and ignited chafing fuel
unattended.
12. To help prevent pot damage, never leave an empty fondue pot or a pot
with less than one-inch (2.5 cm) depth of fondue mixture over the flame.
13. To avoid burning food, consistently stir the fondue mixture. Cuisinart
is not responsible for stains or damage to the pot interior as a result of
burned or overcooked food.
14. Always use a potholder when touching the pot, splatter shield, stand, or
burner. The fondue set may get very hot when in use.
15. To extinguish the flame, cover the ignited fuel completely with the
snuffer. The snuffer is positioned correctly when the hollowed (concave)
side covers the ignited fuel. Never blow out the flame. Never refill the
burner while hot or near an open flame.
16. Take care not to lose or damage components of the fondue set. Compo-
nent parts are not sold separately from the fondue set. Never substitute
another manufacturer' s fondue parts for components of this fondue set.
BEFORE USING
Purchase liquid chafing fuel and/or gel chafing fuel to be used with the burner.
Fuel is usually sold at hardware stores, restaurant and catering suppliers, party
stores, online, and at some supermarkets, department, or specialty stores.
Wash the fondue pot with warm soapy water and towel-dry thoroughly before
first use.
PREPARING THE FONDUE
Please see the enclosed recipe cards for instructions on preparing basic
chocolate, cheese, and broth fondues as well as interesting alternatives. Use
wooden or nylon utensils only. Metal utensils will scratch the cast iron surface.
Cast iron construction allows for heat to be absorbed and distributed
efficiently. When using the fondue pot on the stovetop, best results are
obtained on low to medium heat settings.
