5. Operation
5.1 Before using for the first time
Caution!
Danger of physical injury and material damage!
• Do not block off the upper overflow! This opening is designed to compensate air movement during the heating process! Closing it off
can cause the tank to burst or implode!
• Do not over-fill the water bath. Spilling water can lead to scalds!
• Only fill with water a normal mains pressure.
1. Inspect the device for visible defects.
2. Thoroughly clean the milk warmer. To do this, note the safety instruction in Sections 3 and 6.
3. Filling the water bath
• Use the filling nozzle to fill the water bath.
• Open the valve on the filling nozzle.
• Fill with water up to the mark provided. Check the fill level of the water bath using the viewing window.
• When the fill level is reached, close the valve on the filling nozzle.
4. Before warming for the first time with milk, fill the tank with water several times and heat it.
5.2 Before switch-on
• Ensure that the tank with the liquid to be heated stands securely on level and stable ground, so as to prevent the milk warmer from falling over.
Tip: Support feet (Art. 141462) are optionally available.
• Check the fill level of the water bath using the viewing window.
5.3 Heating the liquid
1. Fill with the liquid to be heated. Note the maximum fill level as marked on the inside of the tank.
2. Put on the cover.
3. Connect the mains plug to the socket.
4. Set the control dial to the desired temperature.
5. Set the main switch to I (On). The device begins to heat.
The red check light indicates that the heating element is heating.
• Check light on: the heating element heats.
• Check light off: the heating element does not heat.
The heater switches off and the control light goes out upon reaching the target temperature.
If the temperature falls, the heater warms up again so that the target temperature is maintained (keep-warm mode).
Guideline values for temperature setting:
Level 4:
approx. 30 °C
Level 8:
approx. 70 °C
Level 10:
approx. 80 °C
Note:
• These values were measured at a room temperature of 20 °C with water and should be regarded purely as guideline values.
The values actually measured may vary.
• The heating duration depends upon several factors, especially the initial temperature of the liquid, the set target temperature,
the ambient temperature and the amount of liquid.
5.4 Switching the device off
CAUTION!
Risk of physical injury and material damage if used incorrectly!
• The surface of the heater will still be hot when the device is switched off!
• Do not touch the heater or place it on heat-sensitive surfaces.
• Set the main switch to 0 (Off).
• Disconnect the mains plug from the socket.
