[Lance]

Proper cleaning of your Nostalgia CFF986 Chocolate Fondue Fountain ensures its longevity and optimal performance. Here's how to clean it after each use: First, unplug the unit and let it cool completely. Next, carefully detach the tower and auger from the base. Wipe off any residual chocolate with paper towels. Wash the tower and auger in warm, soapy water, rinse thoroughly, and dry before reassembling. Then, empty as much remaining chocolate from the bowl as possible. Use a non-abrasive, damp sponge or cloth to wipe down the rest of the unit. Dry the entire unit with a non-abrasive towel. Dispose of leftover chocolate properly by pouring it into a plastic bag or disposable container and discarding it in the trash; never pour it down the drain. Finally, avoid using abrasive materials on the base to preserve its finish. Following these steps will keep your Nostalgia CFF986 Chocolate Fondue Fountain in excellent condition.
