To remove any residue from the warming drawer that may have been left from the manufacturing process, you should turn the control knob to the maximum temperature setting.

- It is perfectly normal for a smell to be produced during this process.

- You should make sure that any windows in the room are left open during this process.

- It is advisable for you not to remain in the room whilst the burning off process is taking place.

- You should leave the warming drawer on the maximum setting for 2 hours.

Selecting a temperature (BD14SS)

• Place the crockery that you wish to warm in the drawer.
• Use the control knob to the most suitable temperature for the crockery that you are warming.
• The control knob should only be turned clockwise. Do not turn it past the MAX position; otherwise damage can be caused to the thermostat.
  ○ Turning the control knob to the cup symbol, will give you a temperature of approximately 40^ C and should be used to warm cups or glasses.
  ○ Turning the control knob to the plate symbol, will give you a temperature of approximately 60^ C and should be used to warm plates and dishes.
  ○ Turning the control knob to the MAX position, will give you a temperature of approximately 85^ C, this again can be used to warm plates and dishes. You should ensure that the crockery is designed to withstand this high a temperature.
• The warming drawer will not start to heat until the drawer is fully shut.
  ○ IMPORTANT: Care should be taken when removing items from the warming drawer, when appropriate you should use oven gloves when removing items from the drawer. You should make sure that the appliance is switched off before removing items from the drawer.
