When using any electrical appliance, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:

 

1. Read all Instructions before using this Fountain.

 

2.  Do not touch hot surfaces.  The side of the Fountain Base and Basin may be hot during use.

 

3.  To protect against electrical shock, do not immerse the base of the appliance in water or other liquids.

 

4.  Avoid contact with moving parts such as the Auger in the cylinder and the spindle in the center of the Basin.

 

5. Close supervision is necessary when the Fountain is used by or near children.

 

6.  Do not operate the appliance if you observe damage to the electrical cord, plug or if the base of the Fountain has been dropped or damaged in any manner.  The Fountain should be returned to Chocolate Fountain Oasis for examination and repair if required.

 

7.  Unplug the Fountain from the electrical outlet when it is not in use, before putting on or taking off parts, and before cleaning.

 

8.  Do not allow the electrical cord to come in contact with hot surfaces.  An extension cord may be used if necessary.  Position the electrical cord so that it does not create a hazard by hanging over the table or counter edge in a way where it might be tripped over or pulled by those around the Fountain.

 

9.  Never place any object, especially your fingers inside the central cylinder while the Fountain is in use.  Doing so may cause severe injury to persons or damage to the Fountain itself.

 

10. The use of unnecessary attachments, other than those made available specifically for the use with this Fountain, is not recommended by the manufacturer and may cause injuries.

 

11. Extreme caution must be used when moving the Fountain while containing hot liquid.

 

12.  The use of the Fountain outdoors is not recommended.

 

13.  Do not use this Fountain for anything other than the intended use.

 

14. The Fountain you rented has a removable Basin.  Do not remove the Basin while the electrical cord is plugged into the electrical outlet.

 

15. THE FOUNTAIN MUST BE LEVEL TO OPERATE PROPERLY.

 

16. Observe and follow customary sanitation guidelines when using the Fountain.

 

17. WARNING:  TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK OR FIRE, DO NOT REMOVE THE BASE PANEL.  INTERNAL COMPONENTS ARE NOT USER SERVICEABLE.  REPAIR SHOULD ONLY BE PERFORMED BY AUTHORIZED PERSONNEL.
