The following must always be observed:
Do not connect the device to the mains via a socket that is NOT provided with an earthing
pin;
Do not connect the device to an electrical system that has not been checked for fire safety;
Do not clean or have the device maintained when connected to the power supply.

Control panel description
The control panel (Figure 2, ‘D’) is located on the right-hand side of the device, under the water
chamber. It comprises (see Figure 1) a thermostat control (A), control lamp (B), and a power switch (C).
The thermostat control is used to adjust the temperature of water. It is steplessly variable within the
range of 30°C to 90°C. Whether the water has reached the desired temperature is shown by the lamp
(B). The power switch is used to turn on and off the device by setting it to 1 or 0 respectively.
3.3
Operation modes and configuration of the device.
A thermostat control is used to adjust the temperature of the bain-
marie chamber (Figure 1, ‘A’). It is
steplessly vari
able within a range of 30°C to 90°C. The control lamp (Figure 1, ‘B’) for the heating
elements switches on each time the temperature of water/in the bain-marie chamber falls a few
degrees.
The water heating-up time depends on a number of factors. The most important one is the depth of the
GN containers used, which is directly related to the amount of water in the chamber. Less important
factors include the level to which the GN containers are filled and the tightness of the cover of the water
chamber.
In order to avoid the overheating of the heating mats, a thermal safety switch is provided. This cuts off
power from the mats when they have exceeded 120°C.

4.1
General safety rules
All outer steel surfaces and all inner surfaces of the bain-marie chamber must be cleaned daily using a
small amount of detergent and lukewarm water. After being cleaned, the surfaces should be rinsed with
cold water and dried. Do not clean acid-resistant steel surfaces with scrapers or wire cleansers, since
they can scratch the surfaces. If the device is not going to be used for a long time, cover its surfaces,
particularly the inner surfaces of the bain-marie chamber, with a thin coat of Vaseline or a preservative
that may come into contact with food.
IMPORTANT!!! Do not the wash the bain-marie using a water jet, since this may damage the electrical
or electronic components important for the proper operation of the device.
4.2
Machine cleaning and maintenance.
All outer steel surfaces and all inner surfaces of the bain-marie chamber must be cleaned daily using a
small amount of detergent and lukewarm water. After cleaning, the surfaces must be rinsed with cold
water and dried, with special attention paid to the lower inner surface of the bain-marie chamber, being
exposed to the limescale precipitating from water. Do not clean acid-resistant steel surfaces with
scrapers or wire cleansers, since they can scratch the surfaces.
