When placing the fondue pot on the fondue plate, always ensure that the fondue
pot is filled with a sufficient amount of liquid to avoid overheating (at least 150 ml).
Do not overfill the fondue pot, especially when heating food that may violently froth
or splash (e.g. hot oil or heavy sauces). When dipping food in hot sauces, oil and
dips, the contents of the fondue pot could violently froth and splash. For preparing
fondue with oil and oily dips: Do not fill in more than 500 ml. Dab wet food dry
and defrost frozen food, before dipping.
Ensure not to spill or pour liquid on the appliance. If large amounts of liquid ran out
and into the appliance, immediately turn both control dials counter-clockwise to the
stop, unplug and leave the appliance cool down completely. Thereafter, dry and
clean the appliance (see: ‘Care and Cleaning’). DO NOT attempt to wipe liquids
spilled in the raclette level during operation or while the appliance is still hot to
avoid severe burns and risk of electric shock!
Beware of hot condensate, splashes and steam, when opening the lid. Always keep
a sufficient distance to the grilling plate with your hands, arms, and face, even if the
grilling plate is not in use. Beware of splashing condensate, juices, and fat, when
using the fondue and grilling function at the same time. If required, protect your
hands, arms, and valuable clothes with suitable oven gloves.
Do not place any too large pieces of food in the fondue pot that may be overhan-
ging the rim.
1. Prepare your food: Remove any inedible parts and cut the food in cubes or
strips, 2 cm in size. If required, defrost frozen ingredients and dab wet food dry
before cooking.
2. Fill the requested ingredients with a sufficient amount of liquid in the fondue pot
up to the maximum capacity of 1,3 litres or approx. 1/2 litre when preparing
fondue with oil or oily sauces.
3. Insert the folks holder inset into the fondue pot and put on the lid. Closing the
fondue pot with the lid will save energy and the contents of the fondue pot will
heat up faster.
4. Prepare the appliance for operation (see: ‘Getting Ready for Use’). Even if you
do not wish to use the grilling plate, ensure that the grilling plate is mounted cor-
rectly on the appliance.
5. Place the fondue pot on the fondue plate within the opening in the middle of the
grilling plate.
6. Turn the fondue control dial (left control dial) clockwise until the desired tempera-
ture is shown on the LCD display (see: ‘Tips for Best Results’). The fondue plate
starts heating immediately.
