Using the plate warmer

Functions

The plate warmer is intended exclu sively for heating crockery.

Do not use the appliance to re-heat, cook or keep food or drinks warm. The condensation from the food / drinks could lead to moisture dam age in the appliance.

The appliance operates with a hot air system. A fan distributes the heat around the drawer. The hot air circu lated heats up all the plates quickly and evenly.

A protective grille prevents any contact with the heating element and fan.

The rail in the drawer separates the control panel, heating element and fan from the rest of the drawer. This prevents plates from being placed too near the control panel and geting damaged when the drawer is pushed in.

Control area

The controls consist of the temperature control and the On / Off switch. These are only visible when the drawer is open.

Selecting a temperature

The temperature control is used to adjust the temperature setting.

The floor of the plate drawer is fitted with a non-slip mat to prevent plates and dishes sliding about when the drawer is opened and closed.

Only turn the temperature control in a clockwise direction and then back again. Stop when you feel a resis tance. Forcing the control past this point will damage it.

The heating will switch off automatically when the temperature selected is reached. It will switch back on again as soon as the temperature drops below this level.
