5.2 Operation
Before first use
•Before the first use of the chocolate warmer, wash the removable inner pot and the
glass lid in warm water with a mild cleaning agent, rinse with clean water and dry
thoroughly.
•Wipe the outer pot on the inside and outside with a soft, moist cloth to remove dust
from packing and transport.
CAUTION!
Never immerse the outer pot in water or other liquids, do not wash under
running water or in a dishwasher.
•After washing and cleaning, replace the ceramic inner pot in the outer pot. Make
sure that the insert is completely dry.
CAUTION!
Do not pour any liquids into the outer pot!
•Pour a small amount of water into the inner pot and place the glass lid on it.
CAUTION!
Never use the device when completely dry, therefore do not turn the device
on when the inner pot is empty.
Turning the device on
•Insert the plug into an appropriate grounded socket. The red power indicator will
come on signaling that the device is connected to the power supply.
•Set the control knob to „ “ on the control panel (see section „Settings “).
Leave the device to warm up for around 30 minutes.
A slight odour may be detected, which is quite normal. The smell will quickly
disappear.

- 28 -
•After around 30 minutes, set the control knob to OFF „“and disconnect the device
from the power supply (pull the plug!).
•Leave the device to cool off for approx. 20 minutes, remove the lid and take out the
inner pot from the outer pot.
•Empty the inner pot, rinse it and dry thoroughly. Replace the inner port in the outer
pot. The device is ready for melting the chocolate and maintaining the temperature
of the heated chocolate.
Preparation of chocolate
•All types of chocolate – milk, dark or white chocolate – can be melted in the
chocolate warmer.
•Prepare the selected chocolate. Coarse cut chocolate or chocolate in chunks is
best for melting. Thanks to this, the melting process is not only more even but also
takes less time. Special chocolate bars of course do not require additional cutting.
Tips for operation of the device
•Chocolate should be melted as evenly and as slow as possible. Thanks to this the
resulting melted mass has equal temperature and consistency throughout its
entire volume. As you know the consistency is of great importance when enjoying
the chocolate.
•Please, note that due to the different contents of cocoa, fat and sugar, different
types of chocolate required different melting temperatures.
•Place the prepared chocolate in the inner pot and cover it with the glass lid.
•Never fill the ceramic inner pot to the top edge. Always use the device with the
lid on and the ceramic inner pot properly placed inside.
•Connect the device to the appropriate socket.
•Select the appropriate setting using the control knob. Observe the instructions
presented in the section „Settings“.
