3. USE

3.1. Before using for the first
time
Before using the appliance for the first
time you should clean the interior and the
exterior, following the cleaning
instructions given in the section
"Cleaning and Maintenance".
Then heat the crockery warmer for at
least 2 hours. For this, turn the
temperature control to the maximum
position (see section 'Selecting
temperature").
Make sure the kitchen is well-ventilated
when you are doing this.
The appliance's parts are protected by a
special product. For this reason, during
the first heating an odour will be
released. Both the odour and any smoke
that may form will disappear after a short
time and neither signifies that there is
anything wrong with the connection or
the appliance.

3.2. Control Panel

The control panel has a function and the
on/off switch. The control panel is only
visible when the drawer is open.

3.3. Using the crockery warmer

To use the crockery warmer, proceed as
follows:
 Put the crockery in the drawer.
 Select the function you want by turning
the thermostat control to the desired
position.
 Switch on the appliance by pressing
the switch, which will light up.
 Close the drawer.
Be careful not to use too much force
when closing the drawer since it may
open up again. Before taking out the
warm crockery you must switch off the
crockery warmer by pressing the switch
again

3.4. Selecting function

By turning the thermostat control you can
select temperatures between 30 and 80
°C.
Do not force the thermostat control to the
left of the "0" position or to the right of the
maximum position since this may
damage the appliance.
As soon as the selected temperature is
reached, the heating is turned off. When
the temperature drops to a value below
than the one selected, the heating is
turned back on.
The temperature scale is marked with
absolute temperatures in ºC and also has
symbols which correspond to the
optimum temperatures for groups of
crockery:
