Warning and Safety instructions

Correct application

This appliance complies with all relevant local and national safety requirements. Inappropriate 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 it for the first time. They contain important notes on installation, safety, operation and care of the appliance.

Keep these instructions in a safe place and ensure that all users are familiar with the contents. Pass them on to any future owner of the appliance.

This appliance is intended for

domestic use only, and must only be used as described in these instructions. Any other usage is at the owner's risk and could be dangerous. The manufacturer cannot be held liable for damage resulting from incorrect or improper use or operation.

This appliance is not intended for

use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience or knowledge, unless they are supervised whilst using it, or have been given instruction concerning its use by a person responsible for their safety.

Warning and Safety instructions

Safety with children

This appliance is only intended for

use by adults who have read these instructions. The appliance is not a toy! To avoid the risk of injury, keep children away from it at all times, and do not let them play with it or use the controls. They will not understand the potential dangers posed by it. They should be supervised whenever you are working in the kitchen.

Older children may use the

appliance only when its operation has been clearly explained to them and they are able to use it safely, recognising the dangers of misuse.

Packaging, e.g. cling film,

polystyrene and plastic wrappings, must be kept out of the reach of babies and young children. Danger of suffocation. Dispose of or recycle all packaging safely as soon as possible.

Technical safety

Before installation, check the

appliance for visible signs of damage. Under no circumstances should you use it if it has been damaged. A damaged appliance is dangerous.

The electrical safety of this

appliance can only be guaranteed when continuity is complete between it and an effective earthing system. It is most important that this basic safety requirement is present and regularly tested, and where there is any doubt, the household wiring system should be inspected by a qualified electrician. The manufacturer cannot be held liable for the consequences of an inadequate earthing system (e.g. electric shock).

Before connecting the appliance to

the mains supply make sure that the connection data on the data plate (voltage and connected load) correspond with the mains electricity supply, otherwise the appliance could be damaged. Consult a qualified electrician if in any doubt.

Warning and Safety instructions

This appliance may be connected

via a fused plug and switched socket. If you wish to connect it to a fused spur connection unit, or if the appliance is supplied without a plug, it must be installed and connected by a suitably qualified and competent person in strict accordance with current local and national safety regulations. The manufacturer cannot be held liable for damage caused by incorrect installation or connection.

For safety reasons, this appliance

may only be used when it has been built in.

Never open the housing of the

appliance. Tampering with electrical connections or components and mechanical parts is highly dangerous to the user and can cause operational faults.

Installation, maintenance and

repairs may only be carried out by a suitably qualified and competent person in strict accordance with current national and local safety regulations. Repairs and other work by unqualified persons could be dangerous. The manufacturer cannot be held liable for unauthorised work.

If the connection cable is damaged,

it must be replaced by a suitably qualified electrician with a specialist connection cable of type H 05 VV-F (pvc insulated), available from the Miele Service Department.

Faulty components must only be

replaced by genuine Miele original parts. The manufacturer can only guarantee the safety of the appliance

when Miele replacement parts are used.

During installation, maintenance and

repair work, the appliance must be disconnected from the mains electricity supply. It is only completely isolated from the electricity supply when:

the mains fuse is disconnected,

–

the screw-out fuse is removed (in

–

countries where this is applicable),

it is switched off at the wall socket

–

and the plug is withdrawn from the socket, or

– it is switched off at the fused spur

connection unit.

Do not connect the appliance to the

mains electricity supply by a multi-socket unit or an extension lead. These do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance (e.g. danger of overheating).

While the appliance is under

guarantee, repairs should only be undertaken by a service technician authorised by the manufacturer. Otherwise the guarantee will be invalidated.

In countries where there are areas

which may be subject to infestation by cockroaches or other vermin, pay particular attention to keeping the appliance and its surroundings in a clean condition at all times. Any damage which may be caused by cockroaches or other vermin will not be covered by the guarantee.

Warning and Safety instructions

Correct use

Depending on the temperature

selected and the length of time the appliance is being used, the inside of the drawer can get extremely hot during use, and remain hot for some time after being switched off.

For added protection, it is advisable

to use heat-resistant pot holders or gloves when using the appliance. Do not let them get damp or wet, as this causes heat to transfer through the material more quickly with the risk of scalding or burning yourself.

To minimise the risk of burning

yourself on the inside of the drawer, always pull it out as far as it will go before removing crockery.

Do not use the appliance to re-heat,

cook or keep food or drinks warm, as moisture in the food or drinks could cause corrosion damage to the drawer.

Do not overload the drawer. The

maximum load bearing capacity of the drawer is 15 kg.

Do not sit or lean on the opened

drawer. This can damage the telescopic runners. The drawer has a maximum load bearing capacity of 15 kg.

The manufacturer cannot be held liable for damage caused by non-compliance with these Warning and Safety instructions.

Do not store any plastic containers

or inflammable objects in the warming drawer. They could melt or catch fire when the appliance is switched on, causing a fire hazard.

Do not use the appliance to heat up

the room. Due to the high temperatures radiated, objects near the appliance could catch fire. The life of the appliance could also be reduced.

Never replace the anti-slip mat

supplied with the appliance with paper kitchen towel or similar.

Caring for the environment

Disposal of the packing material

The transport and protective packing has been selected from materials which are environmentally friendly for disposal, and can normally be recycled.

Ensure that any plastic wrappings, bags, etc. are disposed of safely and kept out of the reach of babies and young children. Danger of suffocation.

Rather than just throwing these materials away, please ensure that they are recycled.

Disposal of your old appliance

Electrical and electronic appliances often contain materials which, if handled or disposed of incorrectly, could be potentially hazardous to human health and to the environment. They are, however, essential for the correct functioning of your appliance. Please do not therefore dispose of it with your household waste.

Please dispose of it at your local community waste collection/recycling centre, and ensure that it presents no danger to children while being stored for disposal.

Before using for the first time

Please stick the extra data plate for the appliance supplied with this documentation in the space provided in the "After sales service" section of this booklet.

Cleaning and heating up for the first time

Remove any protective foil and sticky labels.

Remove the anti-slip mat from the drawer, and clean it with

warm water and a little washing-up liquid. Wipe dry using a soft cloth.

Wipe the appliance inside and out with a damp cloth only,

and then dry with a soft cloth.

Replace the anti-slip mat in the drawer.

Then heat the empty drawer for at least two hours. Set the

temperature control to maximum (see "Selecting a temperature").

Metal components have a protective coating which may give off a slight smell when heated up for the first time. The smell and any vapours will dissipate after a short time, and do not indicate a faulty connection or appliance. Ensure that the kitchen is well ventilated.
