4 This warming drawer conforms to current safety requirements. Im- proper use can, however, lead to personal injury and damage to property. To avoid the risk of accidents and damage to the appliance, please read these instructions carefully before using the appliance for the first time. They contain important notes on installation, safety, use and maintenance. Miele cannot be held liable for damage occurring as a result of non-compliance with these instructions. Keep these instructions in a safe place and pass them on to any future owners.

5 Use  This warming drawer is intended for domestic use and use in other similar environments.  The warming drawer is not intended for outdoor use.  The warming drawer is intended for domestic use only as de- scribed in these instructions. All other use is at the owner's own risk and could be dangerous.  Persons who are unable to safely operate the warming drawer due to limited physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or because of a lack of experience or knowledge, may only use the appliance if they are supervised while doing so. These persons may only use the ap- pliance without supervision if they have been shown how to use it in a safe manner, and if they are able to recognize and understand the potential risks of improper use.

6 Children  As with any appliance, close supervision is necessary when used by children.  Do not leave children unattended: Children should not be alone or unsupervised in the area where the appliance is installed. Do not al- low them to sit or stand on the appliance.  Be sure to supervise any children in the vicinity of the warming drawer, and do not let them play with it.  The warmer drawer gets hot when in use and remains hot for some time after being switched off. Keep children away from the ap- pliance until it has cooled down and is no longer a burn hazard.  Danger of suffocation! Ensure that any plastic wrappings, bags, etc. are disposed of safely and kept out of the reach of children.

7 Technical safety  Installation, repair and maintenance work should be performed by a Miele authorized service technician in accordance with national and local safety regulations and the provided installation instruc- tions. Contact Miele’s Technical Service Department for examination, repair or adjustment. Repairs and other work by unauthorized per- sons could be dangerous and may void the warranty.  A damaged warming drawer can be dangerous. Always check for visible signs of damage. Never use a damaged appliance.  Reliable and safe operation of the drawer can only be assured if it has been connected to the electrical supply.  Be certain the drawer is properly installed and grounded by a qualified technician. To guarantee the electrical safety of this appli- ance, continuity must exist between the appliance and an effective grounding system. It is imperative that this basic safety requirement be met. If there is any doubt, have the electrical system of the house checked by a qualified electrician.  Before connecting the appliance to the power supply, ensure that the connection data (voltage and frequency) on the data plate of the drawer match the electrical supply. This data must correspond in order to avoid the risk of damage to the warming drawer. Consult a qualified electrician if in any doubt.  Do not connect the drawer to the electrical supply with a power bar or extension cord. These are a fire hazard and do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance.  For safety reasons, the warming drawer may only be used when it has been fully installed.  This drawer may not be used in non-stationary locations (e.g. on a ship).

8  Any contact with live connections or tampering with the electrical or mechanical components of the warming drawer will endanger your safety and may lead to appliance malfunctions. Do not open the casing of the warming drawer under any circum- stances.  Any repairs not performed by a Miele authorized service techni- cian will void the warranty.  Defective components should be replaced by Miele original parts only. Only with these parts can the manufacturer guarantee the safety of the appliance.  If the plug has been removed or the power cord is not supplied with a plug, the drawer must be connected to the power supply by a suitably qualified electrician.  Do not operate the appliance if the power cord is damaged. It must be replaced by a suitably qualified electrician with a H 05 VV-F (PVC-insulated) type power cord, available from Miele.  The drawer must be completely disconnected from the power supply during installation, maintenance and repair work. This can be ensured as follows: – The circuit breaker has tripped, or – The fuse of the electrical installation is completely removed, or – The plug (if present) is removed from the outlet. In the process, pull the plug not the cord.  If the drawer is installed behind a cabinet door, do not close the door while the drawer is in operation. Heat and moisture can build up behind the closed door and cause damage to the range and to the surrounding cabinets and flooring. Do not close the door until the drawer has completely cooled down.

9 Proper use  You can burn yourself on a hot warming drawer. When using the appliance, protect your hands by wearing heat-resistant pot holders. Only use dry pot holders. Wet or damp textiles conduct heat more effectively and produce steam, which poses a burn hazard.  Fire hazard! Do not store any plastic containers or flammable ob- jects in the warming drawer. They can meld or catch fire when the appliance is switched on.  Due to the high temperatures radiated by the warming drawer, nearby flammable objects can catch fire while the appliance is in use. Do not use the warming drawer to heat the room.  Never use paper towels or other similar objects in place of the non-slip mat supplied with the appliance.  The maximum load capacity of the telescopic drawer rails is 55 lbs (25 kg). If you overload the drawer or lean/stand on it when it is open, you will damage the rails.  The underside of the warming drawer gets hot when the appliance is in use. Be careful not to touch it when the drawer is open.  The non-slip mat is heat-resistant up to 395°F (200°C). It is possible for the bottom of cookware to exceed this temperature, especially after it has been used to sear food. Allow the cookware to cool down for a minute or two before placing it in the warming drawer.  Cookware made of plastic or aluminum foil will melt at high tem- peratures. When keeping food warm, use only heat-resistant cook- ware made of porcelain, glass, etc.  Liquids that get inside the warming drawer can cause the appli- ance to short-circuit. Open and close a loaded drawer carefully to prevent liquids from spilling.

10  The "Keep Warm" mode is to be used for keeping hot dishes warm, not for heating up cold food. Make sure that any food placed in the drawer has a high enough temperature.  In some foods, bacterial growth may occur if the temperature is too low. Set the appliance to an adequate warming temperature.  Loose fitting or hanging garments present a fire hazard. Wear proper apparel while operating the appliance.  Smother the fire or flames, or use a dry chemical extinguishing agent or foam fire extinguisher.  Before serving, be sure food is at a safe temperature. This is par- ticularly important when preparing food for babies and children.  Never warm undiluted alcohol in the warming drawer, this can easily ignite.  Exercise caution when warming food with a high sugar content. If heated for too long the sugar may caramelize or ignite.  Never add water to food in a hot drawer. The steam created could cause serious burns or scalds. Cleaning and care  Do not use a steam cleaner to clean the warming drawer. The steam may reach electrical components and cause a short cir- cuit.

–  Warming cups and glasses –  Warming dishes and plates –  Keep Warm –  Low temperature The next time the appliance is switched on, the previously selected operating mode will automatically ap- pear on the control panel as the active setting. The drawer is equipped with a fan that distributes the warmed air within the drawer. The fan runs – continuously in the  "Warm Cups/Glasses" and  "Warm Dishes/Plates" modes. – and at intervals in the  "Keep Warm" and  "Low Temperature" modes. You can use the drawer to keep food warm while warming dishes at the same time. To do so, select the  "Keep Warm" mode. Caution! Dishes take longer to warm up in this mode as in the "Warm Dishes/ Plates" mode, but can get very hot! Duration Do not leave the drawer unattended for too long in continuous operation mode. Keeping food warm for a long time can result in it drying out or even self-igniting. Your drawer is fit- ted with a safety switch-off mecha- nism which switches the appliance off after a maximum of 12 hours of continuous operation. The drawer is set to continuous opera- tion (exception: Low temperature). A limited duration can be selected by tapping the "Duration" button: tap once for 1 hour (1h), twice for 2 hours (2h), and so on. The maximum duration is 4 hours. Tapping the button for a fifth time re- turns the appliance to continuous oper- ation. Temperature settings A temperature range is assigned to each operating mode. The default rec- ommended temperatures appear in bold. The temperature can be changed in 5° increments by tapping the "Tem- perature" button. The next time the drawer is switched on, the previously selected temperature is automatically shown in the display as the current setting (exception: Low tem- perature).

18 The minimum temperatures for keep- ing food warm (150°F / 65°C) may not be exceeded. Use only the "Keep Warm"  mode to ensure that the minimum temperature is maintained. This operating mode is designed to keep food warm immediately after it has been cooked, i.e. when it is still hot. It is not intended for reheating food that is cold. Select the  mode. Select the desired time setting. The drawer must be preheated for about 15 minutes to ensure that the temperature required for keeping food warm is reached. Place the dishware inside the drawer for preheating. After 15 minutes, remove the pre- heated dishware from the warming drawer and fill it with the hot food. Use pot holders to remove the dish- ware. Place the dishes in the drawer and close it carefully to prevent liquid foods from spilling. Tips – Place the hot food in pre-warmed dishes. To preheat dishes, place them in the drawer while it is being pre- heated. – Cover roasted or fried foods that are to remain crispy. Use a higher tem- perature to keep this type of food warm. – Cover food with a high moisture con- tent, liquids and foods which can de- velop a skin, with aluminum foil or a plate. – To avoid spilling the food, do not overfill dishes. – Freshly cooked food is hotter than food which has been kept warm. Serve food that has been kept warm on preheated plates. – Foods begin to lose their nutrients during the cooking process and con- tinue to do so while being kept warm. The longer food is kept warm, the greater the loss of nutrients. – We do not recommend keeping food warm for too long, as it will continue to cook. – The food may cool down if the drawer is opened frequently. – Do not slam the drawer open or shut. Liquids could spill over and get into the vents or inside the drawer.

whole area of the drawer whenever possible. Stacks of plates heat up more slowly than individual pieces. If it is not possible to avoid large stacks of plates, place them at the front of the drawer. Use the rack (depending on the appli- ance model). – Do not place large serving dishes in front of the air vents in an upright po- sition. This will block the warm air outlets, and the plates and dishes will not warm evenly. – For cups and glasses, only select the "Warm Cups/Glasses" mode  to ensure that the maximum tempera- ture (140°F/60°C) is not exceeded. – Warmed dishes and plates cool down rapidly. Do not remove them until you are ready to use them. Warming times Various factors will affect the warming times: – The material and thickness of the dish – The amount of dishes placed in the drawer – The arrangement of the dishes in the drawer – The temperature setting Due to these factors, it is not possible to provide exact warming times. The following information can be used as a guide: In the  mode, it will take approxi- mately – 30 - 35 minutes to evenly warm 6 place settings – 40 - 45 minutes to evenly warm 12 place settings As you continue to use the appliance, you will get to know which setting best fits your needs. Capacity The telescopic runners can support 55 lbs / 25 kg. Overloading the drawer will damage the runners. The quantity that can be loaded will de- pend to a great extent on the weight and size of your own dishware. You can increase the load area by using the rack supplied with the appliance. Position the rack to suit. With two racks you can increase the load area even more by placing one rack on the left and the other on the right. Another rack can be obtained from Miele or from your Miele dealer (see "Optional acces- sories").
