All-Clad Keep Warm Temperature Control Fault

Keep Warm function does not maintain temperature; food becomes cold or overheated.

This repair may involve working with high voltage components or water connections. Always unplug the appliance before removing any panels.

If you are not confident in your ability to perform this repair safely, we strongly recommend contacting a professional technician.

Possible Causes

Incorrect temperature sensor reading, Firmware calibration issue, Control board keep-warm circuit failure, Poor thermal contact with inner pot

Safety first: Use a food thermometer to verify safe temperatures.

Check pot seating: Ensure the inner pot is fully seated on the heater plate.
Avoid small quantities: Very small amounts of food may cool quickly or overheat; adjust portion size.
Measure temperature: After 30 minutes on Keep Warm, check that food is above 60°C / 140°F for safety.

If Keep Warm is consistently far too hot or too cold, the control system may need recalibration or board replacement.
