BEFORE FIRST USE
Prior to using your Buffet warmer, please read all safety and operating instructions
thoroughly. Ensure all parts indicated on the Product Overview Diagram on the
previous page of this instruction manual have been included in the packaging.
1. Unpack the product but keep all packaging material until you have made sure
your new Buffet Warmer is undamaged and in good working order. Plastic
wrapping can be a suffocation hazard for babies and young children, so
ensure all packaging materials are kept out of reach of children.

if any parts are damaged. In case of damage, phone the After Sales Support

NOTE: You may notice a slight odour being emitted from the Buffet warmer
during the initial use. This is normal and will cease with continued use.
ASSEMBLY
1. Before assembling the Buffet Warmer, ensure the exterior of all warming trays
are clean and dry.
2. Place the warming tray base on a flat, level and stable surface and place the
warming tray frame directly on top of the warming tray base. Ensure the
exterior guides on the warming tray frame align with the edges of the warming
tray base so it sits securely.

indicator light will turn off when the Buffet Warmer has reached the desired
temperature setting.
