Before rst use:
1. Unpack from the box and poly bags.
2. Remove the tower and auger from the base.
3. Using a damp, non-abrasive cloth, wipe the tower, auger and motor base.
4. Stand the motor base on a level surface.
5. Place the auger onto the triangular shaped auger support in the centre of the
motor unit.
6. Place the tower over the auger unl the holes at the base of the tower are
aligned with the supports on the heang basin of the motor base. The tower
should stand sturdy and level.
7. Ensure the feet are adjusted at the base of the motor unl so the Chocolate
Fountain is level.
Using the correct chocolate
Your unit will work with any chocolate. However, the best chocolate to use is pure
Belgian chocolate which is high in cocoa buer which is formulated for chocolate
fountains. This chocolate requires no oil to funcon and is rich and decadent.
You can use a variety of foods, chocolates or sauces with your Chocolate Fountain
to create the avour you desire. An example of food that can be used is:
 Milk Chocolate
 Dark semi-sweet chocolate
 White chocolate
 Buerscotch

Using your Chocolate Fountain
Now that you have selected your chocolate, follow these instrucons to begin:
1. Place the unit on a stable work surface ensuring it is level. It is important
for the unit to be level to create the desired owing eect.
2. Plug the unit in. Make sure that your unit works by tesng the motor
funcon to see that the auger turns and that the heater works. Once this is
done, turn both o.
3. Melt 680g of chocolate chips or chocolate cut into chunks. Place a bowl
over a pan of boiling water, ensuring the water does not touch the boom
of the bowl. Pour in the chocolate and 3/4 of a cup of oil. Allow the
chocolate to slowly melt unl it is runny and smooth.
Alternavely, melt 680g of chocolate together with 3/4 of a cup of oil in
the microwave in a microwavable bowl. Ensure the power is set to
medium heat as the chocolate may burn if the temperature is too high.
Melt the chocolate unl runny and smooth.
4. Turn the heater knob to the ON posion.
5. Pour melted chocolate into a bowl at the base of the unit. Fill it up to the
rim, turn the motor to the on posion. Watch as the chocolate gets pulled
up and then cascades down the fountains ers.
4. Let the unit ow for 2 minutes. Then turn the motor OFF for 30 seconds to
eliminate any air gaps that could possibly cause the chocolate not to ow
smoothly. Turn the motor back On. If the ow is not smooth, add 1/8 of a
cup of oil to thin the chocolate slightly.
You should now have a nice owing fountain.
 Never add hard chips to a fountain while the motor is running, only add
melted, smooth chocolate.
 Never add cold liquid to chocolate, as it may cause the ow to stop, only
add warmed uids.
 Always check to make sure there are no chunks of food in the base as it
may clog the ow of chocolate.

Desired avour Use
Orange chocolate Grand Marnier
Chocolate hazelnut Frangelico
Coee chocolate Kahlua
Mint chocolate Crème de Menthe
Chocolate macaroon Coconut mix
Chocolate liqueur Godiva liqueur
 Using a measuring cup, add 1/4 cup of liquor addive (more or less,
depending on your taste).
Note: For best results use 60% cocoa, any higher percentage will require more oil.
Cleaning
1. Before rst use and aer each use, be sure to wash the tower and auger
thoroughly.
2. Make sure the unit is unplugged before cleaning it. Remove the auger and
the tower and soak them in warm, soapy water.
3. Carefully pour out as much remaining chocolate from the base bowl as
possible. Use a damp sponge or cloth to wipe the remainder clean. To clean
the outside of the unit, wipe with a dampened cloth unl clean and dry with
a non-abrasive towel.
Note: Do not immerse the base, as this holds all of the electrical components. Do
not pour excess or leover chocolate down the drain or in the toilet, pour it into
a plasc bag or disposable container before placing it in a dustbin.
Adding avour
You can add certain avours to your chocolate by mixing it with alcohol. Make sure
that prior to mixing, you burn o the alcohol in the liquor by cooling it on the stove.
Bring the alcohol to the boil, which burns o the alcohol but leaves the avour
behind. Next, mix it with your choice of chocolate before adding it to the Chocolate
Fountain.

Troubleshoong
Problem Possible Cause/ Remedy
 Chocolate is owing but
unevenly
 Chocolate is too thick, thin with
vegetable oil.
 Unit is not level. Adjust the feet at
the base of the motor unit unl the
Chocolate Fountain is level.
 Chocolate is owing unevenly,
but not sheeng
 Unit is not level. Level unit so that
chocolate is evenly distributed
around the tower to ensure proper
sheeng. Adjust the feet at the
base of the motor unit unl the
Chocolate Fountain is level.
 Flow is intermient,
interrupted, not owing
properly
 Check for chunks of food caught in
the bade that may be clogging the
chocolate ow to the base of the
tower, remove any chunks found.
Note: To prolong the life of your Chocolate fountain be sure to follow the cleaning
instrucons aer every use and make sure the tower is ushed, washing the unit to
prevent the chocolate from building up. Never use any abrasive materials on the
base of the unit to maintain the original nish.
Do not add cool or cold liquid, this will stop the ow of the fountain.

Electrical informaon
Please note:
It is extremely important that the wires or cores in the ex are connected to the
correct terminals in the plug. If the colour of the mains lead of the appliance does
not correspond with the coloured markings idenfying the terminals in your plug
proceed as follows:
 The Live (Brown) wire
connects to the right-
most live (L) terminal
nearest to the fuse.
 The Neutral (Blue) wire
connects to the le-
most neutral (N)
terminal.
 The Earth (Green and
Yellow) wire connects
to the central, top most
earthed (E) terminal.
Warning:
If the appliance is double insulated indicated by the double insulated symbol:
it should not have an earth wire or earth connecon.
Plug
The plug must be protected by the correct AMP fuse; this will be indicated on the
case of the plug. Only BSI or ASTA approved fuses should be used. When changing
the fuse always replace it with a fuse that is of the same idencal rang as the
original. If you are unsure about which plug or fuse to use, always refer to a
qualied electrician.
Please note aer replacing the fuse, ensure that the cover is correctly ed back
onto the plug. Never aempt to run the appliance if the plug does not have a cover.

10
If a moulded plug is ed and has to be removed take great care in disposing of the
plug and severed cable, it must be destroyed to prevent it from engaging into a
socket.
If the supply cord is damaged it must be replaced by a service agent or a similarly
qualied person in order to avoid a hazard.
