Before using for the first time
General notes
The plate warmer is intended
exclusively for heating crockery.
It uses a hot air warming system. A fan
distributes heat given off by a heater
element evenly throughout the drawer.
The circulating air ensures that
crockery is heated evenly and quickly.
A protective grille protects you from
touching either the fan or the heating
elements.
The base of the drawer is fitted with a
non-slip mat which stops crockery
sliding about when the drawer is
opened and closed.
Cleaning and heating up for
the first time
Before using for the first time proceed
as follows:
Wipe the appliance with a damp
^
cloth only, and then dry with a soft
cloth.
Then heat the empty drawer for at
^
least two hours. Set the temperature
control to maximum (see "Selecting a
temperature").
It is important to ensure that the room is
well ventilated.
Metal components have a protective
coating which may give off a slight
smell when heated up for the first time.
The smell and any vapours will
dissipate after a short time and do not
indicate a faulty connection or
appliance defect.
9
Page 10
Operation
Do not use the appliance to re-heat,
cook or keep food or drinks warm.
Condensation from the food or
drinks could lead to corrosion in the
appliance.
Always use heat-resistant gloves to
remove heated crockery from the
drawer.
The load bearing capacity of the
appliance, irrespective of its height,
is 25 kg maximum.
Controls
The controls consist of a temperature
dial and an On/Off switch. These are
only visible when the drawer is open.
When the drawer is closed, you can tell
when the appliance is switched on
because the On/Off switch illuminates
through the hole in the front of the
drawer.
10
Page 11
Operation
Using the drawer
Place crockery inside the drawer.
^
Select the temperature required.
^
Switch on the appliance (j).
^
The switch lights up.
Close the drawer gently: if you use
^
too much force, it can spring open
again.
Switch the appliance off (k) before
^
removing the heated crockery.
Selecting a temperature
The temperature dial allows you to
select any temperature between
approx. 30 and 80 °C.
The temperature dial must only be
turned in a clockwise direction as far
as it will go and then back again.
Do not turn it too far as this will
damage it.
When the temperature is reached, the
heating element switches itself off.
When the temperature falls below that
selected, the heating element switches
on again automatically.
The temperature scale around the dial
is shown in symbols rather than in °C.
The symbols represent the most
suitable temperature for the type of
crockery depicted:
– b approx. 40 °C
for cups or glasses.
Drinks poured into warmed cups do
not cool down so quickly. At the
same time, the cups will not get too
hot to handle.
–
r approx. 60 °C
for serving dishes and plates.
Food stays warm for longer if served
in pre-heated dishes. The dishes will
not get too hot to handle.
