How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug and allow the unit to cool before inspection.

User checks:

  • Confirm that the keep-warm function is enabled and that the programmed keep-warm time has not expired.
  • Check that the indicator for warming is lit (if your model has one).

Technical checks:

  • Access the underside of the warming plate to test the plate heating element for continuity with a multimeter.
  • Test the plate thermostat for continuity at room temperature.
  • Inspect the control PCB relay that switches the plate; if it does not click or shows burn marks, replace it or the entire PCB.
