PLATE WARMER
The plate warmer is used to keep dishes hot and allow greater exibility when organising your meals. Its
principle is straightforward and involves using a heating element to keep your plate warmer heated at the
desired temperature.
Heating is obtained by means of a heating element located in the lower part under the base.
Description
Made of fully thermally-insulated stainless steel plate, the plate warmer has 5 levels that can
accommodate standard catering sized shelves GN 1/1.
The plate warmer is equipped with two shelves as standard.
The plate warmer is heated by a 950 W element
The heating element is controlled by a thermostatic switch on the control panel.
An indicator lamp next to the control knob indicates thermostat control of the heating element. It is
lit or no longer lit depending on the programme temperature.
Use
The plate warmer must be pre-heated roughly one hour before plates or dishes are placed inside it.
Turn the thermostat switch clockwise to the selected mark. Indicator lamp (A) is lit and goes out
when the desired temperature has been reached and you can load the plate warmer.
In order to switch off, turn the thermostat control knob from the right to the left as far as the O
position.
Useful hint
Before using the plate warmer for the first time, it is advisable to switch it on without anything in
it at the maximum thermostat position for 1/2 hour in order to eliminate the smell of fumes due to
the composition of the mineral wool used to insulate the oven and residues from greases applied
during manufacture. These odours will disappear after the oven has been used a few times.
- Never place plates directly on the base, crockery may break due to the rapid increase in
temperature.
- Your dishes or plates may be extremely hot depending on the temperature selected.
Take the necessary precautions before handling them.
Attention : The plate-warmer should not be used for re-heating food. The food in the recipients
should be at the regulatory temperature (>63°C).
