Cleaning your chocolate fountain
It is best to clean your Chocolate Fountain whilst the chocolate is still in liquid
form; if you leave the chocolate to cool and completely harden it will make the
clean-up process more difficult.
Follow these simple steps to clean and maintain your Chocolate Fountain
after every use:
1. Turn your Chocolate Fountain OFF and un-plug it from the mains.
2. Pour any remaining chocolate out of the bowl and into a bin liner or
throwaway container before disposing in a bin. Never pour liquid chocolate
into a sink as it may harden and cause a blockage.
3. Remove the spiral, centre column with the tiers piece from the Chocolate
Fountain Base and Bowl. Wipe them with a soft damp cloth or sponge and
place them in a sink.
4. Next thoroughly wash the spiral and centre column with the tiers piece in
warm soapy water, before rinsing and drying.
5. Wipe any remaining chocolate from the Chocolate Fountain bowl with
a damp cloth or paper towel before buffing dry. NEVER immerse the
Chocolate Fountain base and bowl in water or use in a dishwasher.
6. Once your Chocolate Fountain is clean and dry it is ready to be packed
back in its box ready for the next use.
NEVER immerse the Chocolate Fountain water, other liquids or use in
a dishwasher. There is danger to life due to risk of electric shock
NEVER use abrasive cleaning agents or sharp objects (e.g. scrubbing bush
or a knife) for cleaning
