TEMPERATURE SELECTION
The temperature knob lets you select a temperature between approximately 30°C and 85°C.
Turn the temperature knob clockwise only, until the stop that indicates the maximum setting, and then counter-
clockwise.
Do not force it beyond the stop, otherwise the thermostat will be damaged.
The temperature scale does not show absolute temperatures in °C, but rather symbols that represent the best
temperature for respective groups of dishes:
-(cup) approx. 40°C
for cups or glasses.
When contained in glasses which are previously heated to this temperature, hot beverages do not cool so
rapidly and the container can nonetheless be touched without any problem.
-(plates) approx. 60°C
for dishes.
Foods placed in these dishes will stay warm longer.
Depending on personal sensitivity, the containers can be touched without any danger. Use mitts or pot holders
as necessary.
-MAX approx. 85°C
for dishes.
The thermostat is set to the maximum temperature.
The containers can be touched with appropriate mitts or pot holders.
HEATING TIMES
The time required to heat dishes, glasses and so on depends on several factors:
Material and thickness of the dishes
Amount of load
Arrangement of load
Temperature setting
For this reason it is not possible to provide absolute information.
It is advisable to determine the best settings for your needs based on practical experience.
