QUICK START GUIDE
Place the Fountain on a at and stable surface within reach of a mains
supply. The Fountain must be completely level to work properly so
adjust the small feet on the base as you need to. Plug the Fountain in.
Set the Heater & Motor switch to on, let it warm up for between 3-5
minutes. The switch will operate with the mains connected , or, via the
charged battery if desired.
When you have heated the bowl, switch off the Heater & Motor to add
your melted chocolate.Once the chocolate has been added, switch
the Heater & Motor back on. You will see the contents start to ow over
the tiers system.
Charging your fountain for cordless use:
The cordless battery pack once fully charged has a maximum life of 60
mins.
To charge ensure the power cord is plugged in and the switch is in the
‘OFF’ position, a full charge takes 3 hour.
The LED light on the fountain will be ashing green during the charging
period. When the LED light changes to solid green the battery is fully
charged.
NB: While charging, the fountain will not run.
On running the fountain in cordless mode, the Led will remain green
until the battery is low, then the LED will display red. The LED will ash red
when the battery has reached the last 5 minutes of its life.
Using your fountain via the mains power supply:
With the power cord plugged in and the fountain switched on to
Heater & Motor or Motor means that the fountain is able to operate
using the power cord.
NB: While running the fountain, the battery pack will not be charged for
cordless running.

PREPARING THE CHOCOLATE
Now it’s time to get the chocolate ready. It needs to be melted before
you place it in the warmed Fountain bowl. The quickest and simplest
way to do this is in a microwave but you can also melt your chocolate
on the hob. For the best cascading effects, you need at least 600g and
up to 1000g of chocolate to start. This is a generous serving for up to
8-10 people.
Microwave:
If you’re using JM Posner Finest Belgian Chocolate in 900g
microwaveable pouches or 2.5 kg catering packs, simply follow the
instructions on the pack. If you’re using another brand of chocolate,
break it into pieces and place it in a bowl in the microwave. Heat it for
1 minute on Medium power (800W oven) and then stir. Return it to the
microwave for a further minute and then check again. The chocolate
must be completely melted and of a thin consistency that ows easily
off a spoon. You will also need to add some vegetable oil to your
chosen chocolate to improve its owing quality.
Hob:
Use the bain-marie method. Place the chocolate in a heat-resistant
bowl. Stand the bowl in a large saucepan of hot water on the hob over
a low heat. Stir the chocolate constantly until it’s completely melted,
taking care not to let it stick or burn. Again, you’ll need to add some
vegetable oil.
It’s important not to add water or any water-based liquids to your
chocolate as this will make it harden and stop the ow.
Virtualy any quality chocolate will work well but for perfect results rst
time and every time, you’re recommended to use a specially blended
fondue chocolate, such as the ones created by JM Posner.
To get the best cascading effects, the secret is a chocolate with a
high percentage of cocoa butter. Dark chocolate usually has a higher
percentage than milk. Other cheaper chocolates can work with the
addition of vegetable oil but the oil can obviously affect the taste and
the texture.
Your Battery Operated Table-top Fountain can also run a variety other dipping sauces.
You can try cheese, Barbeque, Curry or Chilli sauces.

ADDING THE CHOCOLATE TO YOUR
FOUNTAIN
Pour your melted chocolate into the centre of the Fountain bowl at the
bottom of the tier system.
When ready to serve, turn the switch to Heater & Motor or Motor. Have
the dipping foods arranged around the base.
The spiral drive inside will draw the chocolate up to the top – and then
cascade over the tiers with its irresistible warm chocolate aroma.
CARE AND CLEANING
Your Fountain is designed to be easy to use and easy to clean. Always switch
off your Fountain and unplug it before cleaning.
Start by pouring away any remaining liquid chocolate from the bowl. It ’s
important to put it into a plastic bag or another disposable container and then
place in a bin. Never pour the chocolate into a drain or the toilet . It could
cause blockages as it hardens.
Let the Fountain cool down. Wipe off any remaining chocolate in the bowl and
on the sides of the base unit with a damp paper towel or soft cleaning cloth
and buff dry. Do not use abrasive sponges or scourers as these will damage the
stainless steel surface.
The base unit of your Fountain contains the electrical components and so it
must obviously never be placed in water or in a dishwasher.
The spiral and the tier system can be safely washed by hand in warm, soapy
water. Then rinse and dry with a paper towel or soft cloth.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Your Battery Operated Table-top Fountain is designed for high reliability and
trouble-free use. On the rare occasions when you experience a problem, try
these simple solutions:
Chocolate is dripping, not owing:
Chocolate is too thick. Add a small amount of vegetable oil. Or The Fountain
is not level. Check the surface it’s standing on. Adjust the base unit’s feet as
required. Or Make sure there’s at least 600g of melted chocolate in the bowl.

Chocolate is owing unevenly:
The base is not level. Check the surface it’s standing on and adjust the feet on
the base unit as necessary. The chocolate should also be evenly distributed in
the bowl.
Chocolate ow is intermittent:
Food may be blocking the chocolate ow at the base of the tier system.
Remove any pieces found.
Chocolate ow is slow:
Air may be caught in the spiral drive or tier system. Turn off the Fountain for
around 20 seconds then restart.
Chocolate is too thick to ow:
The room temperature may be too low or the Fountain may be in a draught
from an open door or window. Thin the chocolate with a little vegetable oil.
